It is a small page that turns at
Motorola. It can no longer count on a single product in the Moto X series, this
year called Moto X third generation, but now two new devices: Moto X Style and
a Moto X Play. We are interested here in the first of the two, the largest but
also the most expensive.
Moto X Style was more or less
known even before its announcement: expected more or less the successor to the
Nexus 6, and this is the case. Because if the smartphone does not rise up to 6
inches diagonal, it offers still a (LCD) 5.7 inch display which, even though
its borders are fine, make motorcycle Style a true phablette.
Because if the plump appearance
of the first Moto X ensured good (small) hand grip, Moto X Style, retaining
this family trait, is particularly impressive. He indeed exceeds the 11 mm
thick (on its more domed part) and weighs no less than 179 grams.
In short, this is not the kind of
phone that you be hauling in your trouser pocket and forget sitting, and one
begins to regret that Motorola has not chosen to fully review its design codes.
Wood, leather, moto maker
Its finish, she is quite
convincing. In contrast to the Moto X Play, the Style does not have a battery
or a removable shell, but offers extensive customization options.
Basic, it is equipped with a nice
textured gum turnkey hull, but with the moto Maker service, it can take a shell in various
shades of wood or, like last year, leather. Small detail all the same: If the
screen is slightly rounded on the sides, which is very nice in hand, the
various models that we could try hung slightly the finger on the side. It is a
pity, even if not frankly annoying.
On the other hand, on top of the
phone, the trolley dedicated to the SIM card is also home to a port for microSD
card, although the phone is available in 16, 32 and 64 GB: there want to say
'Finally '. This screen, let's talk about it: great, it did in sports no less a
very high definition (of the qhd display, 1440 x 2560 pixels) on its 5.7-inch
diagonal. Its borders are thin and the display quality is at the rendezvous.
Indoors, and even if Motorola
handles to perfection diplomacy ("there is no problem with the 810″
Snapdragon, it told us), it is good for the SoC Qualcomm Snapdragon 808
combined with 3 GB of RAM, that is precisely the configuration selected by LG
for the G4, as the brand has opted.
Can only join, wherever it is
found that when benchmarks (we did have time to launch than AnTuTu who book a
score of 49 000 points), it does not particularly warm. It is also a light
layer of software, with a 'pure Android' experience based on the Lollipop 5.1.1
with the promise of an update next to Android M.
There are the usual tools of
Motorola: Display, Assist or Migrate, the great classics that Motorola regulars
are familiar. On this side, we will be reassured to see that the integration of
Motorola to Lenovo has not changed much.
A Moto X Camera?
For the rest, good surprise are
looking at the multimedia aspect of the Moto X Style. Motorola promises to
actually to be amended on the question of photography, and relies on a solid
duo: it is indeed equipped with a photo sensor back 21 megapixels and a 5
megapixel front sensor, combined with an LED flash.
A rarity on the high-end
smartphones that, combined with a wide angle sensor, allows to obtain the
suitable quality of night selfies. On the back, the outbreak is fast and if the
processing is pushed, the details are slightly less extensive than a Galaxy S6,
which the sensor is yet 16-Megapixel.
In other words, if Motorola has
improved, it may not yet quite arrived at the level of the masters of the
genre. Note that the interface of its photo app has not changed, with
possibility to make photos in HDR, save them directly on the microSD and other
settings. In contrast, still no release but button touch triggering that can
annoy.
The last thing to take into
account the autonomy of this Moto X Style appearance. While the Moto X Play on
a XXL 3630 mAh battery, need here rely on a battery of 3000 mAh rather
consistent, and associated with a technology developed to accelerate the load
of the appliance, Turbo Charge. In the spirit of the Qualcomm's QuickCharge -
technology that Motorola could be relied--Turbo Charge promises a third of
charge in 15 minutes.
Our first impressions on this XXL
format
With his XXL format clearly
reminiscent to the Nexus 6, this Moto X Style may appeal as much to put off. It
is big, very big, and made run counter to current trends, seeking instead the
finesse and lightness.
Yet, its advantages are many,
starting with its simple software layer, its very nice screen (the angles of
vision and colors are at first sight excellent), its now expandable memory and
net Motorola efforts in the field of multimedia.
For its price set at 499 EUR 16
GB and moto Maker, it offers a good quality-price ratio, even taking to
regret that he avoids fingerprint reader and manual modes are absent from its
application photography.
Smartphone without compactness
and phablette without stylus, this Moto X Style, so "stylish", lies
between two waters and will have to convince, argue its tariff position to not
turn into simple image product.
