A Snapdragon 615 chipset runs this one, paired with 2GB of RAM and either 16GB or 32GB of storage that you can stretch further with a microSD card up to 256GB. The 5.5-inch IPS LCD panel runs at full HD, 403 ppi, so text and video stay sharp for a phone in this class. Android 5.1.1 comes preloaded but it's upgradable to Nougat, which matters if you want a bit more longevity out of the software.
The standout here is the 21 MP rear camera, backed by phase detection autofocus and dual-LED flash, a solid setup for a mid-ranger from this era. A 5 MP front camera handles selfies. The 3630 mAh battery is on the larger side for a phone this slim at 10.9mm thick, and the body adds splash and dust resistance, something not every competitor offered at this price. Motorola Moto X Play price in Malaysia starts from RM1399.
Connectivity covers NFC, dual-band Wi-Fi, GPS and LTE, and there's a dedicated noise-cancelling mic for calls. It comes in Black or White.
