The Second Generation moto g
The Second Generation moto g

As a successor to the most successful smartphone in Motorola’s history, the second generation Moto G surely has hefty expectations to meet. A year after the XT1032 redefined the budget smartphone category by combining high-res screen, quality hardware, and up to date Android build, the newcomer aims to build on its success.

In line with the trends in the smartphone world, the new Moto G boasts a significantly larger display than the model it replaces, as well as beefed up camera. We also get a microSD card slot for cheap memory expansion and front-facing stereo speakers – their presence is hardly believable considering the unchanged starting price tag of the device.

New features aside, the 2014 Moto G offers similar hardware to the model it replaces.

  • Quad-band GSM/EDGE/HSDPA
  • Available in dual-SIM variant
  • 5″ IPS 720p capacitive touchscreen of 294ppi, Gorilla Glass 3

  • 2,070mAh battery

Iphone 6-Bigger than Bigger!!

This is Apple like we’ve never seen before. Apple like we never thought we’ll see. To begin with, there’s supposed to be no better iPhone than the iPhone 6. That’s the sort of thing you’d expect of Apple. Come September every year, the world grabs a bag of popcorn and gets ready to watch Apple’s bestest iPhone yet come on stage in all its glory.

That’s what we did too, minus the popcorn, which by the way would’ve had nothing to do with the bitter aftertaste the presentation left. And no, we don’t mean Apple’s live streaming blunder.

Things actually started off nicely with the announcement of the long overdue screen size bump, and we didn’t get a cheaper option this time – we were treated to possibly a bigger, better iPhone to go with the best iPhone to date. How Apple – it takes another iPhone to beat the iPhone.

KEY FEATURES:-

  • Metal unibody, 6.9mm slim, 129g of weight
  • LTE connectivity (Cat. 4, 150Mbps downlink)
  • 4.7″ 1,334 x 750px LED-backlit IPS LCD of 326ppi
  • Apple iOS 8
  • Dual-core 1.4 GHz Apple A8 chipset, M8 motion co-processor, PowerVR GX6450 GPU, 1GB of RAM
  • 8MP F/2.2 camera with True tone LED flash, phase detection auto focus, 1080p@30fps and @60fps video recording, 720p video recording @120fps and 240fps, 1.2MP F/2.2 front-facing camera with BSI sensor and HDR mode.
  • Comes in 16, 64, and 128GB of built-in storage
  • Touch ID fingerprint sensor built into the Home button
  • New Barometer sensor for tracking elevation
  • 1,810mAh battery

Main disadvantages:

  • Has unimpressive screen to body ratio (the Nexus 5 fits a 5-inch screen in this size of a body)
  • No microSD slot
  • Pricey memory upgrades, 32GB version should be standard for such an expensive phone
  • No user-replaceable battery
  • Protruding camera lens makes the phone wobble if you don’t have a case on
  • Camera is still merely 8MP four years in a row (granted, it’s getting better every with every new generation)
  • No 4K video and video sound is still mono
  • Lacks the optical image stabilization of the iPhone 6 Plus
  • No enhanced resistance to liquids or dust
  • NFC functionality limited to Apple Pay
  • Rather pricey for a flagship (without carrier subsidies) that misses some of the extras of the competition, such as stereo speakers, wireless charging, an infrared port, or FM radio
