Motorola One Power

The Motorola One Power is a premium smartphone which is equipped with certain really good features. The performance of the device is up to the mark thanks to the sound processing front. It merits as mid-range phones with modern looks, a solid build and good specs. It is targeted to power users who prefer to have a smartphone with decent specifications and not under a tight budget. Being an Android One phone, it has the benefit of frequent Updates. Motorola promises the phones will get Android P in the near future, along with the Android update for 2019. Monthly security updates directly from Google are part of the package as well. Motorola has promised to release an update to Android 9 Pie soon as it aims to make the Moto One Power “among the first devices to upgrade” to the new OS. As for design, the Motorola One Power has a glass-over-aluminium frame. It is sitting in a gently-curved metal back that's segmented out at the top and bottom where it joins with the frame. On the back, you’ll find dual-camera modules that are vertically stacked on the left side of the phone. The fingerprint sensor is housed in the Motorola logo on the back of the phones. The bezels are minimized on the phone, and there’s a top-notch that houses the front-facing camera and speaker. The Motorola One Power flaunts a 6.2-inch Full HD+ display with a screen resolution of 1,080 x 2,280 pixels. The pixel density of 402 PPI lends a great deal of clarity to the display. When it comes to the cameras, the handset comes with a dual primary camera setup having 16 MP and 5 MP lenses, which are assisted by the features like LED flash and phase detection autofocus. The captured images have a resolution of 4,616 x 3,464 pixels. It has an 8 MP front camera, which provides great selfies. Speaking of performance, it is driven by two Kryo 260 quad-core processors with clock speeds of 1.8 GHz and 1.6 GHz. Those are built upon a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 chipset. The device packs in 3 GB of RAM, which comes in quite handy for multitasking. As far as the storage goes, it comes with an internal storage capacity of 32 GB which can be further expanded up to 128 GB. This quite easily meets the storage needs of the user. The handset is equipped with a 5,000 mAh Li-Polymer battery, which is quite up to the mark. With the option of turbocharging feature, the level of battery backup is restored to a certain extent. When it comes to connectivity, it has got some regular connectivity options like Wi-Fi 802.11, Bluetooth v5.0, GPS, Glonass, etc. Hands-on article by Jagadisa Rajarathnam

Motorola One Vision

Motorola’s jump into the punch hole display scene comes in the form of its latest smartphone, the Motorola One Vision. For a start, its screen is a 6.3 inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1.080 x 2.520 pixels in an aspect ratio of 21:9. This gives it a pixel density of 432 pixels per inch. The entire front panel is covered in Corning Gorilla Glass. According to some reviews, the screen’s color accuracy is not perfect but its 464 nits brightness is enough for normal usage under sunlight. The One Vision has a dimension of 160.1 x 71.2 x 8.7 mm, which is rather small for that screen size. To achieve this, the screen is maximized from edge to edge giving it a bezel less display. The front facing camera is embedded into a hole placed at the top left of the phone. This gives the phone a screen-to-body ratio of 82.5 %, which is pretty good for a mid-range device. At the back, there is a fingerprint scanner that works precisely and very quick. Interestingly, the One Vision features an Exynos 9609 processor which is more commonly used in Samsung phones. This is paired with a Mali-G72 GPU, 128 GB of built in memory and 4 GB of RAM. The internal memory can be expanded by installing a micro SD memory card. With all this specs, the phone can deliver some great performance in terms of multi-tasking and even gaming. This is made better with a clean version of Android, Android One. As for the camera, the One Vision has a dual camera setup on the rear, one 48 MP wide angle sensor and a 5 MP depth sensor to assist with portrait images. At the front, there is a 25 MP single camera embedded into the punch hole. Unfortunately, this is not a wide-angle lens and getting photos of a wide-angle selfie is quite important these days. The Motorola One Vision has Bluetooth 5.0 for faster communication and the 3.5 mm earphone jack at the bottom is the rather important but not so common these days. The phone comes with a 3.500 mAh battery that supports 15 W fast charging via its type-c port. The phone is shipped in two colors, bronze gradient and sapphire gradient. The One Vision is a rather interesting phone but there are some serious competition for it. The main one is the Samsung Galaxy A50. It has a much better AMOLED display and even better specs to match it. Sure, there is a notch, but the punch hole surely isn’t worth that much more. Besides, the A50 has an under-display fingerprint scanner and a triple camera setup for the main, rear camera. Hands-on article by Jagadisa Rajarathnam

Motorola One Action

The Motorola One Action is something that no one has expected to see it coming. Within the ever industrious and competitive scene of gadgets as well as smartphones, it is both a surprise and a comfort to learn that Motorola as a brand still has a spot among the top tier brands in the scene. The Motorola One Action has adopted the blueprint of a premium smartphone model by featuring not only a full screen display but also a rear dual camera setup, which is an honorable nod towards pre-existing smartphone models that carry the same design. Nevertheless, Motorola’s take on the production of the Motorola One Action smartphone is something worth taking a glance. The announcement of the Motorola One Action housing the industry’s first ever ultra-wide action camera has immediately grabbed a lot of attention from interested audience all over the world. It markets itself as being capable of recording and capturing up to four times more within the frame thanks to the incorporation of this ultra-wide action camera. The setup for this ultra-wide action camera consists primarily of a fast-focusing 12 MP main camera with an aperture of f/1.8 in order to maximize the availability of light from the present environment. The 12 MP main camera is also paired with an additional 5 MP depth camera, which is capable of emulating blur or bokeh effects straight out from a professional photographer’s portfolio. This ultra-wide action camera setup is also supported by various features such as enhanced video stabilization as well as AI camera technology. The AI camera technology in question encompasses functions that include but not limited to smart composition, auto smile capture, portrait lighting and also optimization. Furthermore, the Motorola One Action does not merely pride itself over the novelty of housing the industry’s first ever ultra-wide action camera. The Motorola One Action is by no means lacking in the storage department. When it comes to storage alone, the Motorola One Action exceeded expectations for providing an enormous space of 128 GB to be stored within the device itself. Coupled with the supportive access from Google Photos along the side, free unlimited high-quality photo storage with auto backup feature provides the user with more than ample space to store whatever they so desire inside of the Motorola One Action. With the power of Google service at the user’s immediate disposal, the Motorola One Action will prove itself to be a solid candidate when it comes to sustainability.

Motorola One Zoom

Are you in search for a mid-range smartphone? Or do you have some opinions on mind but you haven’t decided yet? Most of the smartphone users have tons of possibilities and models to pick from. To be honest, most of them look very similar both in terms of hardware and software. Then what is the main point of looking for alternatives? Basically to get a good price. With the Motorola One Zoom, you will get a device with 48 MP camera and 4 GB RAM. There are other manufacturers providing the same, some cheaper and some more expensive. One thing that differs from other manufacturers is that the One Zoom comes with stock Android 9.0. It is clean, no added software, no advertisement etc., which is great. Design is, besides the camera part, pretty generic. I find the 4 camera setup a bit strange. But it is okay, I guess. In this price range, there is no phone with 3x zoom capabilities. Well, the Oppo Reno could be considered as a possible candidate, but time will show. Also the 3x zoom capability is giving this model its name: One Zoom. I have never been a huge fan of phones with big amounts of RAM. Because it means the software is consuming too much resources or is just not well optimized. Yet, trends show the otherwise. There are phones with more than 8 GB of RAM, sometimes more RAM than a notebook. For customers it is like, the more the better. Therefore I can not judge if 4 GB of RAM would be enough or too little. As someone who uses a phone with 8 GB of RAM and at the same time not even pushing it to its limits, I think this is just a marketing tactic. On the other hand, pricing is as said a topic that needs to be kept in mind. There are flagship models for around 400 Euros. If the 3x zoom capability is the only justification point, you need to validate your purpose of purchase. Are you going to use your phone for photography? Just for multimedia usage? Gaming? There are models for specific needs and there are models for general usage. For me, the One Zoom is more towards a specific usage, that is photography. Only then I think it can justify its price. Otherwise there are models available with more RAM or CPU power, but less MPs in cameras. To keep it short, the Motorola One Zoom is a good mid-range smartphone. It is a bit expensive, but that is justified with its camera. If you are looking for a smartphone that comes with clean software and good cameras with some zooming capabilities, then it is for you. Otherwise, I suggest you to take a look at other alternatives. Hands-on article by Ümit Yılmaz Güneş

76.15%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
