Comparisons Featuring Motorola Moto E5 Cruise
Short Review
- The Motorola Moto E5 Cruise features a compact design with dimensions of 151 x 74 x 9 mm and a weight of 150g, making it comfortable to hold.
- Its 5.2-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 282 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 427 chipset with a quad-core CPU, paired with 2GB of RAM, which handles basic tasks adequately.
- The rear camera is an 8 MP unit capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera is suitable for selfies.
- The 2800mAh battery provides moderate usage time but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 8.0 Oreo, the software experience is straightforward, though it may not include the latest features.
- Connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone has a microUSB 2.0 port and retains a headphone jack for audio needs.
- Its navy color adds a subtle aesthetic appeal, although it lacks water resistance.
- Overall, the Moto E5 Cruise is a basic smartphone that covers essential functions without advanced features.
