The phone is slim at 7mm and weighs 186g, with a glass front protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and an aluminum frame. It also reaches IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance with MIL-STD-810H compliance, making it stronger than most premium models today.

Motorola Signature Camera test
Source: DxOMark English
Thanks to a very decent and well balanced performance in the DXOMARK Camera tests, the Motorola Signature earns itself a spot in the top ten of our ranking and shows that good image quality and camera performance are not incompatible with a very thin smartphone body. In photo mode the Motorola Signature camera captures very pleasant images with good exposure and a wide dynamic range. White balance is generally neutral, resulting in nice and natural colors. When shooting with the primary camera module, the Motorola maintains an excellent trade-off between detail retention and noise reduction, resulting in clean, noise-free images with high levels of detail.
