The Moto X Play was announced right about the same time as the OnePlus 2, but we didn't know that the two devices would eventually go up against each other in the midrange market segment.



Motorola has announced the Moto X Play in India at Rs 18,499 and Rs 19,999 for the 16 and 32GB models respectively. The OnePlus 2 on the other hand costs Rs 24,999 for the 64GB model, which is relatively steep compared to the Motorola offering.

So how do the two "flagship killer" smartphones fare against each other? Let's have a look.




As you can see from the comparison chart above, the OnePlus 2 seems to be lagging behind in terms of the storage expansion options, camera (debatable) as well as the battery capacity. The Moto X Play features a less powerful Snapdragon 615 processor which is used in midrange devices, but barring this, we don't see a lot of game changing negatives here.




The Moto X Play can be purchased exclusively from e-commerce retailer Flipkart, while the OnePlus 2 is an invite-only product and an exclusive with Amazon India. There's a price difference of Rs 6,500 between the base model of the Moto X Play and the OnePlus 2, which is quite a lot when you think about it.

Buoyed by strong sales of Moto G and Moto E smartphones, handset maker Motorola has sold 2.6 million units in India over the last seven months.






The US-based company, which re-entered the Indian market in February last year, has also launched a new smartphone -- Moto X Play in the Indian market for Rs 18,499.

"We have received a fabulous response from the Indian market. It continues to be an important market for us. We have till date sold 5.6 million units, of which 2.6 million came in the February-August period. A bulk of the sales were Moto G and Moto E," Motorola India General Manager Amit Boni told PTI.

He, however, declined to comment on contribution from the various devices.Since the re-entry, Motorola has introduced the Moto E (two generations), Moto G (three generations), Moto X and the Moto 360 smartwatch in India exclusively through e-commerce firm Flipkart.

Motorola had stopped sales of its products in India after being acquired by Google in 2012, but came back after its acquisition by Lenovo with the launch of the Moto G in February last year.

Talking about Moto X Play, Boni said the device offers customers the best-in-class cameras, all-day battery, water-repellent design, meaningful software experiences and personalisation options.

The 4G-enabled Moto X Play will be available at Rs 18,499 for 16GB version and Rs 19,999 for 32GB. It has 5.5-inch display, 2GB RAM, 1.7 GHz octa core Snapdragon processor, 21MP rear and 5MP front camera and 3,630 mAh battery.

According to research firm IDC, 26.5 million smartphones were shipped to India in the second quarter of 2015, up 44 per cent from 18.4 million units for the same period last year.

Lenovo group (Lenovo and Motorola) had 6 per cent share of the Indian smartphone market in the period.
