Motorola has upped its games in terms of releasing smartphones. In the latter half of 2019, we’ve seen Motorola rolled out its Android One series devices. First, there was the Motorola One Vision. A fairly good device with cinemascope display. Then came the Action One. A similar one featuring an Action camera at a cheaper price. Now, at the IFA 2019, the company has come up with tow new phones. One of the announced phones, despite being named the Motorola One Zoom, is not the part of the Android One program. And the other one is the Moto E6 Plus.
Motorola One Zoom Overview
The device features a 6.4-inch OLED display. The screen supports Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels and has an aspect ratio of 19:9. Having an OLED display, Motorola One Zoom indeed has an in-display fingerprint sensor.
Talking about the processor, it uses the Snapdragon 675 SoC. It is a mid-range processor similar to the one seen in Redmi Note 7 Pro. Furthermore, the chipset has an integrated Adreno 612 GPU. Moreover, the device will be available in only one RAM variant. It will be a 4GB/128GB variant. However, the storage can be expanded up to 1TB as there is a micro SD slot.
Moving on to the cameras, the rear camera is a quad-cam setup. Its primary sensor is of 48MP with 4-in-1 pixel binning capability. The primary lens is complemented by an 8MP telephoto lens, a 16MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 5MP depth sensor. As for the front camera, there is a powerful 25MP selfie shooter. Furthermore, the front camera comes with Quad Pixel technology. This allows for better low-light selfies.
