The Motorola Moto G2 is a new phone that was announced on September 2014 and also released in the same month. The phone is a great mid-range device and comes with many different features that make it one of the best in the smartphone middleweight category.
On the other hand, the Apple iPhone 5S, once a flagship device is still one of the best performing phones in the market with its powerful chipset architecture. Let’s compare these two phones based on their technical specifications and various other features.
Display:
The Motorola Moto G2 comes with a great 5 inch, 720p display with 294ppi density. It comes with an IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen that supports 16M color definition. Corning Gorilla Glass 3 serves as the principal protection for the display. It is also a complete multi-touch device just like the iPhone.
The iPhone 5S is a bit more sophisticated in terms of the display but pretty smaller at 4.0-inches when you compare it with the Moto G2. The display resolution comes at 640 x 1136 pixels, which Apple considered to be an optimal resolution for your eyes during the release of this device.
It comes with Apple’s highly popular Retina Display feature that includes a LED Backlit IPS-LCD touchscreen of the capacitive variety. The pixel density is 326ppi, which for the iPhone 5S is slightly higher than that of the Moto G2 and rarely discernible with the naked eye.
