After launching a new Moto C model, Motorola isn’t ready to slow down anytime soon and has hit the market with one more choice in the budget segment Moto C Plus . In terms of specs, many of them are similar on the Moto C Plus and Moto C display size, processor, front camera, internal storage, and microSD card support. There are some major differences though, including screen resolution, RAM, cameras, and the battery.
The Moto C Plus is a part of Motorola's latest C series of smartphones that the company claims is aimed at the youth. Why youth? Because they apparently use a smartphone all the time and hence need a device that has a big battery. That is exactly what the Moto C Plus offers.The Moto C Plus comes with fairly average internals with the exception of the battery, which clocks in at a sizeable 4,000mAh. Motorola is banking on the combination of great battery life plus stock Android to elevate the C Plus from the rest of the crowd and help it compete against competition from the likes of Xiaomi.
Budget smartphones these days are gravitating towards glass and metal designs which make them look very premium and a cut above their price. The Moto C Plus however ditches these advancements and sticks to an all plastic design. The front is an all glass affair and comes with capacitive buttons for back, home and recent applications which are sadly not backlit. There is a metal-like ring around the front fascia (it is actually plastic) which adds some much needed design flair. The back panel has a texture that helps improve grip. Unlike the Redmi 4, the Moto C Plus does not come with a fingerprint scanner.
The design of the Moto C Plus is not what one would call premium. The smartphone is quite chunky and heavy and reminds me of the old Nokia phones which could be used for self defence. Although it is obviously because of the large 4000mAh battery inside the phone, it should be noted that there are other phone makers who have managed to pack similar batteries in smartphones with much sleeker bodies.

It also gets a 2-megapixel front-facing camera similar to the Moto C. The smartphone houses a 4000mAh battery that is much larger than the 2350mAh battery inside the Moto C. The Moto C Plus measures 144x72.3x10 mm and weighs 162 grams.
