Moto is back with a vengeance. Moto, the brand that brought us the iconic flip phone Razr more than a decade ago when it was still known as Motorola, re-introduces itself in the country with the launch of its latest flagship handsets the Moto Z family and lower priced Moto G family and the Moto E Power smartphones.
True to its form of reinventing form, function, and style, Moto, which is now a brand under global company Lenovo, set its focus on differentiating its Moto Z lineup with the rest of pricier Android handsets out there with the inclusion of “Moto Mods”–or modular attachments that you can snap at the back of the smartphone to provide it with another functionality or enhance some features.

The Moto Z features 13 MP camera with optical image stabilization and laser autofocus. Front facing camera is at 5 MP and includes wide-angle lens and front-facing LED flash.
