Summary
- The BLU Grand Max and Motorola Moto G4 Play both feature a 5.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, offering similar visual experiences.
- In terms of performance, the Moto G4 Play is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 chipset, providing slightly better efficiency compared to the Mediatek MT6580 in the Grand Max.
- Both devices have an 8 MP rear camera capable of 1080p video recording, but the Moto G4 Play's camera has a wider aperture (f/2.2) for potentially better low-light performance, while the Grand Max has an 8 MP front camera versus the Moto's 5 MP.
