Motorola Moto X 16GB Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![Deepak Dhingra]()
Verdict
When we reviewed the Moto G, we tagged it a smartphone that won’t change your life, but could change the game. Little did we know then that we’d soon be encountering another device that’d turn out to be exactly the opposite, and that too, the G’s own sibling. With its specs, the Moto X may not be able to change the game, at least in terms of sales numbers. Let’s face it – it’d be tough to justify its dual-core processor and 720p screen, especially when d
Pros
- Solid build
- Scrumptious screen
- Capable camera
- Smooth performance
- Active Display and Touchless Control take usage to the next level
Cons
- Non-expandable storage
- Can`t match up to specs offered by similarly-priced rivals
Bomb-proof build and great handling

It looks like Motorola, just like Apple, didn’t get the memo. Phablets may be a huge deal, both literally as well as figuratively, but both these brands seem obsessed with one-handed usage. The Moto G has a 4.5-inch screen, and it’s sibling, the Moto X sports a marginally larger 4.7-inch display. Build quality is top-notch too, but the curvy rear adds a lot to the ergonomics.

Scrumptious visuals are a treat for the eyes

The Moto G offers a 4.5-inch 720p screen, and the one on the Moto X is just slightly larger at 4.7-inches, and sticks to the same resolution. However, it uses an AMOLED display, as against the LCD variety used by its more affordable sibling. We loved the visuals on the earlier device, and the X is a shade better.

10-megapixels is a strange resolution, since most smartphone tote snappers with eight or 13, but that’s exactly what the Moto X’s camera offers. That said, we all know that resolution isn’t the true indicator of a camera’s worthiness – it’s the quality of images that matters.

All the sweetness of KitKat, plus useful Moto goodies
+
We had to update our Moto G review unit to KitKat as soon as we got it, but the X ships with the latest build of Android out of the box. It follows in its sibling's footsteps by sticking to stock Android, with nary a customisation or tweak.

Starts mutating, and shows its real colours
+
What it doesn’t offer in terms of specs, the Moto X more than makes up in terms of usability and functionality. We’ve covered these features before when we talked about the device’s key highlights, but putting it briefly, these make the X a true smartphone.

May not win the race, but stands defiantly on the podium

Sure, 2GB of RAM is healthy, but a 1.7GHz dual-core processor at this cost? There’s 16GB of non-expandable storage on offer, almost 11GB out of which is actually available to use. Not too exciting, right? Connectivity options are fairly loaded, with dual-band Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC and USB OTG making up slightly for that fixed storage, but again, nothing that really catches the eye.
