Motorola Moto X Style Review

    See other variants reviews Score: 73.8 / 100

Motorola Moto X Style is a fascinating phone launched some years ago, in 2015, coming with a really big 5.7" multi touch screen, an extremely powerful processing unit clocking at 1800 MHz, and two cameras, a 21 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 5 MP front facing camera. We will get a better idea about this phone's pros when we get into more details.

This phone is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 MSM8992 system chip, holding a high speed 1.8 gigahertz processing unit and a great 3 GB of RAM. A key advantage of this cellphone is its inmense 64 GB internal storage memory and an external memory card slot, allowing you to store tons of apps, games, photos and videos without even thinking about filling it.

The Motorola Moto X Style is much lighter than what you would expect from a phone like this. This cellphone only has 6.06" long and 3" wide, but it manages to hold a 5.7" screen. This phone is very thin and looks really nice, but it's not close to being one of the thinnest phones on sale, with a thickness of 0.44". Talking about its aspect, the is mostly built with plastic. Motorola is offering this device in three color options, black, gray and white.

The Motorola Moto X Style has a beautiful 2560 x 1440 (Quad HD / 2K) 5.7-inches display, providing this device with a delightful image quality. Its display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

This device is equipped with two cameras, a 21 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 5 megapixels front-facing camera. Its back-facing camera lens has an aperture of f/2 so it can take very nice pictures even in dark situations. The Motorola Moto X Style also films 4K 3840x2160 videos at 30 fps, and slow-motion videos in 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 60 fps. In addition, the camera has a few interesting features like digital image stabilization, flash, HDR mode, face detection shooting and geo tagging.

This phone offers WiFi connection (which it can provide to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), LTE-A 4G ultra fast connectivity and the fastest 3G data connection, over HSPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. The uses a Nano SIM card for GSM carriers and it works with both CDMA and GSM carriers.

This device features a 3000 mAh inmense Li - Ion non-removable battery that can keep it running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without having to charge it at all. An issue to evaluate is that this phone's battery is non-replaceable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to last shorter, though with so much capacity you will probably discard this cellphone before that happens.

This phone also features some nice characteristics like NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your cellphone close to another NFC device or tag), Bluetooth (4.1) and GPS Geolocation, and some sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

The is being sold for 599 dollars, which is not a really offer for a cellphone this level. No matter whether you want it for gaming, want it mostly for social networks, are an amateur photographer or want it for work, this phone is the correct choice .
