Lenovo, through its subsidiary, Motorola Mobility, has brought the Moto G5 smartphone to the United Arab Emirates. The phone will be sold across all major retailers for an affordable price of AED 699.
“A high quality device that does not break the bank – with the bells and whistles that make for a premium device and experience. People look for a battery that goes the distance, a photographer-quality camera and a striking screen resolution and display,” said the company when talking about what people look for in phones.
“A majority of people around the world are willing to pay more for premium smartphone features they value the most: 76 percent will pay more for a phone with a battery that can keep up with their busy lives and 66 percent will shell out cash for an enhanced camera to capture life’s picturesque moments,” said the company.
Moto G5 is the fifth generation of the Moto G family. “Once again, we’re offering premium features for all. And this time, it comes with a metal design and striking new look. Power, value – and now beauty. An unexpected combination, because different is better,” said the company in a statement.
Moto G features an all metal body and good design and build quality. The phone is available in Lunar Gray or Fine Gold. “The sleek, aluminum design speaks to user preferences: between plastic, metal and glass, 48 percent of people prefer smartphones made of metal,” said the company.
With an all-day 2800 mAh battery, users can go from morning to night without needing to charge, claimed the company. “The 10W rapid charger gives your Moto G5 hours of power in just minutes. Speaking of speed, the powerful 1.4 GHz octa-core processor gives you fast access to photos, apps and everything in between — no annoying stutter or lag time. Locking your phone to keep your information secure, or unlocking to access your favourite app is also easier than ever with a simple touch of the fingerprint reader,” said the company.
The phone also features a high-quality camera. The Moto G5 comes packed with a 13MP camera and software such as phase detection autofocus (PDAF), enabling fast focus for sharper photos.
