MOTOROLA usually launches new versions of the mid-range Moto G and top-end Moto X in September, but this year Gizmag has been treated to the new handsets a month or so early — and there’s a third model to weigh up too.
The Lenovo-owned company announced the 2015 editions in a global press event streamed live on its website.
There are now two Moto X models to consider: the larger, more expensive 5.7-inch Style and the smaller, more affordable 5.5-inch Play.
Both feature a 21 MP “/2.0 camera that Motorola says is the best it’s ever made, though the Style is capable of 4K video recording while the Play tops out at 1080p (probably due to less processing power being available). Both Moto X models have a 5 MP camera around the front.
The Moto G has more significant water resistance compared to its flagship sibling, rated IPX7.
That means it’s good for immersion between 15 centimeters and 1 meter (between 5.9 inches and 3.3 feet) in depth.
