Motorola’s flashy devices have to take a backseat for now as we’re currently focusing on the Moto C. The smartphone belongs to the budget to entry-level category with features that’re a tad disappointing for us.
Display: good quantitatively, poor qualitatively
The caption perfectly describes what the Moto C’s display is all about; featuring a 5 inches IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen with 196ppi pixel density, you’ll only get a 480p resolution atop it that’s sure to get stretched to its fullest on the large display. The unfortunate result is depleted graphics.
Speaking of its design, it somewhat mimics the Motorola G5 Plus. Build quality wise, not so much as it easily gets outmuscled by the aforementioned much more premium smartphone as the Moto C features predominantly plastic, a 9mm width and 154g weight.
Cameras punch well below their weight
The smartphone features two pretty underpowered camera sensors; the primary one features a 5 megapixel sensor and an LED flash while the secondary camera features a 2 megapixel sensor with an LED flash of its own. Bummed? So were we.
Low on hardware as well
The smartphone is powered by a 1.1 GHz quad-core Cortex-A53 processor with an additional 1GB RAM. They’re pretty insufficient for any OS, let alone the built-in Android Nougat. Its internal storage is variant dependent; 16 gigs for the LTE version and 8 gigs for the non-LTE model. Its 2350 mAh battery isn’t something special at all but you do get to choose its exterior from 4 different colours.
