Like this 5G phone but what is the benefit of the 2022 model vs the 2021 model?

Both are running Android 12 but only the 2022 model will definitely receive an upgrade to OS13. The 2021 model will stop getting security updates in June 2023 but the 2022 will carry on until 2025. The 2022 model has NFC for tap and pay. The 2021 model doesn't. The 2022 model has a much faster refresh rate at 120 HZ vs the 2021 model which has only 60HZ. You get more RAM with the 2022 model and more storage with the bonus of the 256 GB Micro SDcard with your purchase taking it instantly to to 512 GB. Both models can upgrade to 1 TB of expandable storage. The 2022 model offers a slightly better camera and processor. The 2022 model offers a side mount fingerprint reader vs the rear mounted version on the 2021 model. At a price of about 100.00 more you're much better off going with the 2022 model. I hope this information is helpful.

The description above says it has 128 GB built-in memory plus space for additional memory. Is it 128 or 256?

The true answer is both! The unlocked version typical comes with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage built-in and a pre-installed 265 GB microSD card. However, many carriers offer a version with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB built-in storage. Same Motorola G Stylus 5G 2022 brand.

Does this phone support wifi 6? This Amazon page says it does, but on Motorola's website it says it only supports up to 802.11 ac.

According to the Motorola Corporate website it states that the Moto G Stylus (2022) unlocked offers "Wi-Fi Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac | 2.4GHz & 5GHz |Wi-Fi hotspot which means that 4G LTE device in comparison supports WIFI 6. However the 5G version of the phone for 2022 states "Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac | 2.4 GHz | Wi-Fi hotspot." Which means it doesn't. You would expect the 2 specs to be reversed. I'd reach out to Motorola Support to get clarification on this. However, I suspect you've uncovered an error in the specs for the 2 phones which needs to be corrected. Good catch my friend.

Is the battery replaceable?

The best way to put it is that while technically they are replaceable they were not designed for the end user to replace it. I've replaced several moto g batteries. It's a bit more involved and requires you to do things to your phone that might make you nervous (think heatgun).
