Adding in more cameras means that it would be covering in better photos and the massive display means that there is no compromise when buying a cheaper phone. Motorola cut some justifiable corners when it comes to the processor but that too is a big step up with the Snapdragon 665 being a beast in itself. 

Additionally, the 4GB RAM is going to handle the apps well and the 4000MAH battery means that you wont be worrying about recharging real soon. 

All in all, this has turned out to be another great entry level device from Motorola and hope that it continues to do so in the future as well!
