Motorola Moto G35 5G Price in Kenya
The Motorola Moto G35 5G price in Kenya is KSh 22,999 to KSh 25,499 at Avechi, depending on the version you pick from the RAM / Storage menu above. It comes with a 1-year warranty, and you can have it delivered or pick it up from our Nairobi shop.
The G35 is a budget 5G phone that Motorola announced in August 2024. It is now one of the older models on our shelves, and it launched on Android 14, so it will not get as many future Android versions as phones released in 2026. It still makes sense for buyers who want 5G, a sharp Full HD+ screen and a 50MP main camera for the lowest possible price.

Why buy the Moto G35 5G
- 5G at an entry-level price. If you live or work in an area with 5G coverage, this is one of the cheapest ways to use it.
- Sharp screen for the money. Many phones near this price use HD+ panels; the G35’s Full HD+ 120Hz display makes text and video noticeably crisper.
- 4K video recording. The 50MP main camera can record 4K at 30fps, which is unusual in this price range.
- Old-school extras. A 3.5mm headphone jack, FM radio and a dedicated microSD slot are all here, alongside stereo speakers.
- 8GB RAM on both versions. Enough to keep several apps open without them constantly reloading.

| Moto G35 5G (2024) | Moto G37 5G (2026) | |
|---|---|---|
| Processor | Unisoc T760 | Dimensity 6300 (global) |
| Display | 6.72″ LCD, Full HD+, 120Hz | 6.67″ LCD, HD+, 120Hz |
| RAM / storage at Avechi | 8GB / 128GB or 256GB | 4GB / 128GB |

| Android at launch | Android 14 | Android 16 |
| Avechi price | From KSh 22,999 | KSh 23,999 |
Verdict: The G35 has the sharper screen and twice the RAM for slightly less money. The G37 is two years newer, starts on Android 16 and is better protected against dust, water and drops. If you plan to keep the phone for three years or more, the G37 is the safer pick. If you want the most screen and memory for your shillings today, the G35 still holds up.
