Readily available on Flipkart, Moto X Play offers two variants, the 16GB and the 32GB, being sold at Rs 18,499 and Rs 19,999 respectively, according to the online publication tech.firstpost.com. Though many seemed to notice that its design and layout are found quite traditional, having a tray that sits on the top edge for dual Nano SIM card and another space for a microSD card slot makes it apart from the rest.

It has initially gotten lots of good reviews on various websites, such as gadgets.ndtv.com, for instance. Thus, some also shared their disappointments particularly on its missing one of the most liked ‘special’ feature of the Moto G 3rd generation flagship, being a water-resistant mobile device. Moto X Play, however, comes with a "water-repellent coating" and a 5.5-inch full HD display with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection -- making its viewing angles still good and bright even on outdoors.

This newly launched smartphone takes a lead not only on its appearance but also on its reliable performance and battery life. It boasts its octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 SoC along with 2GB of RAM, eliminating lags when the user intends to enjoy playing games, streaming videos, and shifting from one app to another. It has amused most of those who tried at the launch for they claimed that they did not experience heating issues for a certain period of time.

More so, its massive 3630mAh battery and its 21-megapixel rear camera have been two of its specifications that seem to outsmart other smartphones -- giving its users maximum 'real world' experience.
