Moto G vs Moto X vs Moto Droid Turbo: which one should consumers buy?

Motorola unveiled heavyweight smartphones this year, which have been faring well against their competitors in the smartphone field. In September, the titanic company released the second generation Moto X and Moto G. Reviews reveal that these two are among the best phones available in the market, with the latter tagged as the top mid-range handset to date. By October, the Moto Droid Turbo went on a rollout. It is the most recent Motorola feat with quality specs to boast. Motorola has been employing uniqueness in crafting these handsets and today, all those will be uncovered with a feature face-off. 

Among the three, the newest of the kin is the slimmest. The Moto Droid Turbo measures 8.3 mm, the Moto X is at 10 mm, and the Moto G is the thickest with an 11-mm body. It also happens to be the smallest and the least sharp in the bunch, with a 5-inch IPS display that delivers a 720 x 1280 pixel resolution and a 294 ppi pixel density. The Moto X is notches better with its 5.2-inch AMOLED screen that generates 1080 x 1920 pixels and a 424 ppi pixel density. The Droid Turbo trounces its rivals with an impressive 1440 x 2560 pixels and a 565 ppi pixel density exuding from its 5.2-inch Super AMOLED display. 

When it comes to power and performance, the Droid Turbo packs Motorola's best. It has a quad-core 2.7 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 paired with a 3 GB RAM that complements its 32 or 64 GB storage capacity. The Moto X houses a quad-core 2.5 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 with 2 GB RAM and two storage options, 16 GB and 32 GB. The Moto G is loaded with a quad-core 1.2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400, has a 1 GB RAM and an 8 GB memory. 

Camera-wise, the Droid Turbo continues to impress. The handset boasts a whopping 21-megapixel rear-facing camera, stomping Moto X's 16 megapixels and Moto G's 8 megapixels. However, Motorola paired all three with 2-megapixel front shooters. 

The Moto Droid Turbo skyrockets with the juice it packs. Its battery is advertised to last up to two days. Surprisingly, the Moto G allows the same length of usage. Moto X is the weakest in this area, but is already great with life that lasts a day. Moto X and Droid Turbo can juice up fast. The handsets can be fully charged after an hour.

The Moto Droid Turbo is available in Black Ballistic Nylon, Metallic Black, Metallic Red and Blue for $600. The Moto X and Moto G both have black and white variants. The former costs around $486. The latter is Motorola's best entry in the mid-range category priced at only $225.
