Motorola Moto C Plus Review of Pros And Cons

- Analysis by KJ David


Though bumping up some of the original Moto C's specs (adding a couple of pros in the process), the Motorola Moto C Plus is still nailed to the entry-level smartphone category by its cons, which are led by a low-caliber MediaTek MT6737 1.3GHz 64-bit quad-core processor that's at least accompanied by 2GB of RAM . In comparison, the plain Moto C only comes with a 1GB RAM, though this Plus version is offered in a 1GB-only variant as well.

Its biggest plus over the original model resides right under its micro-textured back cover , in the form of a hefty 4000mAh battery , which reminds us of what some models in our list of the best high-endurance smartphones boast, not to mention that it almost doubles the Moto C's mundane 2350mAh capacity. It also comes with a reassuring 10W charger , though its mere 30-hour (1800 minutes) promised continuous usage time rubs us the wrong way, since, as we were reviewing its pros and cons, a good number of its big-battery competitors score up to 48 hours (2880 minutes) on that front.

Joining its forenamed upgrade in stamina is a 5-inch 1280 x 720 HD display , which is a huge improvement over its little brothers FWVGA (854 x 480) facade. We also found its 16GB internal memory appreciable, if only because a lot of models that run on similar hardware settle for only half that capacity. It only supports up to 32GB of memory expansion , though, so it's not exactly well-suited for those who want to load up their phones with a ton of multimedia files.

Leading its imaging pros and cons is a run-of-the-mill (by budget Android standards) f/2.2 8-megapixel rear camera that only captures HD-720p videos at best -- some comparable devices record up to FHD-1080p videos. An even more depressing setback, however, is its 2-megapixel-only fixed-focus selfie camera that easily gets blown out of the water by some of the top-ranking selfie smartphones on the market, though it does manage to squeeze a frontal LED flash into its feature set.

A couple more slight drawbacks include the Moto C Plus's lack of NFC (Near Field Communication) support and 10mm thickness -- the average was only around 8.6mm as we were writing this, but overall, the Moto C Plus winds up as a solid choice for entry-level smartphone shoppers who are very meticulous when it comes to battery life.
