Comparison: motorola moto g vs bq aquaris 4

We continue to put the Motorola Moto G at the forefront of other smartphones. Now it is the turn of the Spanish model Bq Aquaris 4 a lower-middle range that does not stand out in anything especially in our opinion but it never hurts to take a look so you can be aware of its specifications. Let's get to work then:

Let's talk about their designs first: The Bq Aquaris 4 is 125mm high x 63mm wide x 10.5mm thick and weighs 135 grams. The Moto G has dimensions of 129.9 mm high × 65.9 mm wide × 11.6 mm thick and weighs 143 grams. The Moto G has a larger size and a greater weight, in addition to protecting itself from shocks with two types of casing: the " Grip Shell " that surrounds the terminal and the " Flip Shell ", which wraps the device in its entirety, although with a front opening to use your screen comfortably.

Now its processors: While the Bq Aquaris 4 features a 1 GHZ Cortex A9 Dual Core SoC and a PowerVR SGX531 graphics chip, the Moto G has a 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 CPU and an Adreno 305 GPU . Both smartphones have a 1 GB RAM memory. Its operating system is Android version 4.3 Jelly Bean (upgradeable) for Motorola and version 4.1 Jelly Bean for Bq.

Let's detail its screens: the Aquaris 4 has a 4-inch multi-touch IPS screen with a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels and 233 dpi. The Moto G features 4.5 inches and a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels with a density of 329 ppi. The glass of the company Corning Gorilla Glass 3 is responsible for protecting the screen of the Moto G.

Both devices have very basic connectivity, featuring WiFi, 3G, GPS, among others.

Cameras: The Aquaris 4 features a rear camera with proximity sensor and 5 megapixel flash, just like the Moto G. Both also have a front camera, in the case of the Bq is VGA with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels, while that of the Moto G has 1.3 MP. Video recording is done on the Moto G at 720p and 30fps, while the Aquaris has not transcended its resolution. Possibility of video calls and self-portraits.

Internal memories: the Bq Aquaris 4 has 12 GB (4 GB eMMC + 8 GB microSD card). For its part, the Moto G has two different models for sale: one of 8 GB and the other of 16 GB not expandable.

As for its batteries, we can say that they present a remarkable difference: the Moto G presents 2070 mAh and the Bq Aquaris 4 1500 mAh, so we assume that despite being less powerful than the Motorola model, it will present less autonomy. Although by the way, it will also depend on how we handle the device.

Finally, its prices: as we have said so many times, we have the Motorola Moto G available on the Amazon online sales portal for 175 euros, a very competitive price if we take into account the quality of its specifications. The Bq Aquaris 4 has a price of 134.90 euros, as we have been able to verify on its official website. Anyway we can acquire it through quotas with our operator.
