If you’ve been following our review, then you won’t be surprised when we say that the Moto M generates mixed feelings. While it seems to have taken care of some of the important aspects such as design and performance, it has also missed out on features that make a Moto smartphone distinct, be it the camera or software – and that’s a big red flag against it.Don’t get us wrong.

If you’ve been following our review, then you won’t be surprised when we say that the Moto M generates mixed feelings. While it seems to have taken care of some of the important aspects such as design and performance, it has also missed out on features that make a Moto smartphone distinct, be it the camera or software – and that’s a big red flag against it.Don’t get us wrong. The Moto M is a good device, but the competition is much better, and of course, our expectations are usually higher from a device from the iconic brand’s stable. For the specs it offers, the pricing seems to be on the higher side – Rs 15,999 for the 3GB RAM model, and Rs 17,999 for the 4 gig version. Devices such as the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (review) are priced significantly lower, yet seem to be better buys. Forget competition from other brands, the Moto M faces rivalry from its own family itself – the Lenovo P2 (review) is an excellent battery monster, while the Lenovo Z2 Plus (review) is the most affordable phone with the flagship-level SD820 chipset. In fact, in our opinion, the Moto G4 Plus, priced at Rs 14,999 comes across as more bang for your buck. The 4GB flavour of the Honor 6X (review) is also a great choice, especially due to its dual cameras.Related read: Moto M vs Moto G4 PlusIf you’re keen on getting the Moto M however, our suggestion to you would be to wait a little longer for the Moto G5 Plus, which as per the rumours, will feature a revamped design language and impressive spec sheet for a sticker price of around Rs 15,000.Related read: What to expect from the Moto G5 Plus
