The Samsung Galaxy A35 is powered by the octa-core Exynos 1380 chipset, which was also present in last year's Galaxy A54. It scores over half a million Antutu points and performs day-to-day tasks flawlessly. But, you can't expect heavy gaming from this processor. It struggles to achieve more than 40 frames per second while playing some graphic-intensive games like Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile and PUBG.

On the other hand, the Motorola Moto G Stylus is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset, which also generates more than 5,00,000 points on Antutu. It performs similarly to the Galaxy A35 and is best suited for casual games.

If we talk about battery capacities, both smartphones have a similar 5,000mAh capacity. Also, they don't support crazy-fast charging speeds - Samsung Galaxy A35 comes with 25W charging, whereas the Moto G Stylus has support for 20W.

But, as mentioned earlier, the Galaxy A35 has a Super AMOLED display. This promises more battery life while playing games or watching videos as the screen doesn't generate pixels when there is deep black content. This helps in preserving the battery for more screen time.

Samsung Galaxy A35 vs Motorola Moto G Stylus (2023): Verdict

Both smartphones lack high-end gaming performance, especially if you want to play graphically intensive titles. Unlike more costlier flagship phones, you can't expect stable 60fps from the processors here. But, you can use them for casual gaming and media consumption.

The Samsung Galaxy A35 is still the better pick, because it offers a better display and longer updates, at a cheaper price. So, it should be your pick amongst the two for light gaming.
