Motorola launched the G5S and G5S Plus a month back and today, the phones have been finally launched in the Indian market. Motorola calls these as the ‘Special Editions’ of the Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus that were launched in March 2017. The Moto G5s and Moto G5S Plus have been launched at almost the same price as that of the G5 and G5 Plus which is a bit cheaper than the expected pricing. The only thing that makes the phones different
The only things that make the phones different are the design & the cameras. Both of them have a full metal build, unlike the G5 and G5 Plus where plastic was also used on top and bottom. Also, the screen size has increased as the Moto G5S now has a 5.2-inch display whereas the G5S Plus has a 5.5-inch display compared to the 5-inch and 5.2-inch displays of the G5 and G5 Plus respectively. Coming to the cameras, the G5S now has a 16MP rear camera with a f/2.0 aperture. The G5S Plus is the first mid-range smartphone from Motorola to pack a dual camera setup. It features dual Dual 13 MP cameras with the depth editor feature. These dual cameras will let you click some great photos with bokeh effect.
