Hack WHATSAPP ?



  Whatsapp is currently one of the most secure messaging services purely because it works with a particular phone number and requires a certain code. In my today’s article I am going to describe a few methods to hack WhatsApp account. Yes guys, it’s no more a myth. You can actually get access to someone else’s WhatsApp account. If you always wanted to know what your boyfriend/husband or girlfriend/wife or friend talks to on WhatsApp then you are at the right place. There are loads of other websites that claim they can hack WhatsApp account, all of them are false. None of those tricks work and actually it is nothing but just a waste of time. The methods that I am going to depict will surely help you in getting access of someone else’s whatsApp account. So people, lets get started now.

Method 1:- Social Engineering (Recommended)

NOTE:- THIS HACK ONLY WOULD WORK WITH SOMEBODY YOU KNOW OR ARE FRIENDS WITH.

Step 1: Firstly you will need to download Bluestacks
Step 2: For this to work, a little Social Engineering is required. Using this software you would need to download and open up the whatsapp application.
Step 3:- Now enter the Phone number of your victim. WhatsApp will send a confirmation code on victims number. You are in need of that code.
Step 4: The best method to get this code off your friend is to start a conversation with him. All you have to do is trick him into giving the code. You could try this:-
“You – Hey, I got a reactivation code for my WhatsApp, did you get one too?
Victim – Yeah I did!
You – I accidentally deleted mine, might be worth a shot to try yours”
The victim hopefully gives you the code.
In the event that they don’t, might be worth trying to physically get hold of their phone or try from a different tactic. Try and get it from them without making it too obvious.
People can be stupid. This is a guaranteed method if you manage to complete the steps above.

NOTE: This method doesn’t work twice so know what you’re going to say and just go in for it. If you fail on one person, move onto the next…You will be able to intercept any messages, videos, images. Virtually anything you want off their WhatsApp

Method 2:- Using MAC [Media Access Control] ADDRESS

In this trick i will be telling you how you can read your messages offline with the help of MAC Address. You can see that you can read the messages and see profile picture in your WhatsApp even when you are not connected to internet and it also pop up the messages which you have not read when you were offline. The trick behind this is that all the messages are kept encrypted in the SD card of your mobile phone so even when are offline you can read the messages and see profile picture of your contacts.
In this trick you have to spoof your android phone’s MAC Address. Don’t be surprised!! Yes, MAC Address can be spoofed.  The attacker can use your MAC address and verification code to access your whatsapp account.
It is easy to spoof MAC address in android but for spoofing MAC address the device must be rooted with BusyBox and Terminal App must be installed in it. Anyone can spoof their MAC address if they meet all these requirements and eventually can hack WhatsApp account of the victim.
You can learn spoofing MAC Address by going to this link: http: //forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385577

Now just follow these simple steps:-
  • Get mac address on your android phone.
  • Finding MAC address on an Android Phones
  • On your phone’s home screen, click on menu, then go to setting.
  • Click on about phone.
  • Click on the status.
  • And then view your Wi-Fi MAC address.
  • As soon the message is received Push the MAC address as well as Verifying code to your server or mail it your ID. That banks on your convince.
  • Cheat your phone’s MAC address to the Victims address and install WhatsApp and after that type the verify code.
  • And now its done. You get full access to the victim’s whatsapp ID. So now you can keep spying/watching your victim’s movements.
  • That means you and the victim is using the same ID from different devices.
  • WhatsApp hack to use it by not using your number.
  • This hack works by cheating the WhatsApp Verification Servers by sending a spoofed request for an authorisation code expected for a different phone.
  • Install Whatsapp on your device. WhatsApp now opens a counter where it sends a verification message to its servers.
  • Block the message service – it can be blocked by changing the message centre number or turning the phone into Airplane mode.
WhatsApp now gives a substitute method of verification – Select verify through SMS and fill in your email address. Once you click to send the SMS press cancel to abort the call for authorisation to the WhatsApp server.
  • Now you have to do sms Spoofing.
  • Examine your outbox and copy the message details into the spoofer application and send the spoofed verification.
  • You will now receive messages expected for the spoofed number on your mobile device and you can communicate with people under the spoofed number.
It’s done!! You have hacked into your friend’s WhatsApp account.

NOTE:- This information has been shared to create awareness among people regarding the “Ways to Hack Whatsapp” so that you can protect yourself from getting hacked. In no way do we promote misusing of the information

Mozilla Firefox is dear for smartphones

In a move that will surprise no one, Mozilla has announced it's pulling the plug on the Firefox OS for smartphones.

Making the announcement at its developer event in Orlando, Mozilla stated it would no longer develop or sell Firefox OS smartphones, though it would continue to experiment in the realm of connected devices and Internet of Things networks.

In a statement, Mozilla's SVP of connected devices, Ari Jaaksi, said, "Firefox OS proved the flexibility of the Web, scaling from low-end smartphones all the way up to HD TVs. However, we weren't able to offer the best user experience possible and so we will stop offering Firefox OS smartphones through carrier channels.


"We'll share more on our work and new experiments across connected devices soon."

Never achieving much success, Firefox OS devices were always at the low end of the spectrum in terms of features and pricing. The lack of native apps didn't do the platform any favours, either.

5 devices unveiled at Google event

At an event in San Francisco, Google unveiled a total of 5 hardware devices, including two smartphones, its first laptop-cum-tablet convertible, and two versions of Chromecast. Here's a look at the five devices, some that have been leaked previously, while some that were a complete surprise..

1. Nexus 6P


Nexus 6P, the big-screen smartphone, has a 5.7-inch AMOLED display with QHD (1440x2560p) resolution, runs on Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) and comes with the integrated Nexus Imprint fingerprint sensor on the back. The smartphone is powered by Snapdragon 810 processor with 3GB RAM and comes in three storage variants: 32GB ($499), 64GB ($549) and 128GB ($649); there is no support for storage expansion. It has a 12.3MP rear camera with 1.55micron sensor and dual-LED flash. On the front is an 8MP camera, the highest resolution for selfie camera for a Nexus smartphone yet. The smartphone features an all-metal, 7.33mm thick body in white, grey and aluminium finishes, packs a 3,450mAh battery, sports USB Type C connector, and comes with front-facing stereo speakers.

2. Nexus 5X


Nexus 5X has a 5.2-inch screen with Full HD (1080x1920p) resolution and runs on the 64-bit Snapdragon 808 processor with 2GB RAM. The storage capacities of the Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) smartphone are 16GB ($379) and 32GB ($429), with no microSD card support. The 12.3MP camera of Nexus 5X also has a 1.55micron sensor and is backed by a laser autofocus for faster capturing; a 5MP selfie camera is in front. Available in black, white and blue colours, the smartphone has a 2,700mAh battery, fingerprint sensor and USB Type C.

3. Pixel C


Google's first laptop-cum-tablet convertible, Pixel C has a 10.2-inch display with 2560x1800p resolution and 500 nits brightness. It runs on Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) and packs the quad-core Tegra X1 processor with 3GB RAM under the hood.The compatible Pixel C keyboard supports inductive charging and will work for up to two months on a single charge. Google has used a USB Type C port in the new tablet, same as the new Nexus smartphones. Google said the 32GB variant of Pixel C will cost $499, whereas the 64GB model is priced at $599. The keyboard will be sold separately for $149. While there is no official release date for the devices yet, Google said it will become available in time for the US holiday season.

3. Second-generation Chromecast


In its second iteration, Chromecast has shed the old USB-stick design and now sports a circular body and multiple colours. According to Google, the new Chromecast streams high-resolution content faster than its predecessor, with less buffering. Its Fast Play feature allows it to connect faster with the TV, the company said. It will cast videos in 1080p resolution (if available) by default and has features like universal search in apps, improved content discovery and has better Wi-Fi strength.

5. Chromecast Audio


A music-centric device called Chromecast Audio, which lets users stream audio on their existing speakers via Wi-Fi, was also announced at the event. The device automatically recognizes devices on the same Wi-Fi network and 'casts' audio from them to the speakers. It will support multi-room devices like Sonos and is compatible with apps like works with apps like Spotify, Pandora and Google Play Music.

Snapdragon 820 V3 scores high on benchmark test

A new screenshot of a Geekbench benchmark test of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 v3 has surfaced, showing considerable improvement in the scores. This is the third leak that has now surfaced, showing higher scores than the two previously leaked benchmarks.



The Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 SoC will have four Kryo cores, clocked at 2.2GHz each, based on the 14nm FinFET technology. It will feature the Adreno 530 GPU alongside the new Hexagon 680 digital signal processor. According to the latest leak, the third version of the Snapdragon 820 has racked up some impressive numbers on GeekBench 3. Its multi-core score of 5910 is superior than all the current chipsets. It scored 2032 in single-core performance, managing to beat the Exynos 7420 and trails only behind Apple’s A9.


The first GeekBench scores of the Snapdragon 820 leaked out in June, revealing rather unimpressive scores of 1732 in single-core and 4970 in multi-core performance. A second leak showed an improved single-core score of 1800, although the multi-core performance score took a hit. In comparison, the Snapdragon 820 v3 has bettered the previous two benchmark scores. Qualcomm can be expected to further tweak the performance before it hits the market next year. Earlier this month, screenshots of a device named Green Orange X1 Pro appeared on Weibo, purportedly running a Snapdragon 820 processor. The images suggested that the device scored 83,774 and 82,307 in AnTuTu benchmark tests.

With the Snapdragon 820, Qualcomm is focusing on optimising power, instead of indulging in an exhibition of raw processing strength. The Hexagon 680 DSP will ease the load on the CPU by taking care of the always-on sensors and image processing tasks. Paired with the Spectra ISP, it will be capable of supporting advanced imaging and computer vision capabilities. However, the Snapdragon 820 will be up against some formidable competition, when it releases next year. MediaTek’s deca-core Helio X20 chipset, Huawei’s Kirin 950 and the Exynos 8890 will be in the fray. If rumours are to be believed, Apple will also be releasing a six-core A10 CPU, with a focus on improving multithreaded performance.

Review Roundup: iPhone 6s

Notices for the new iPhones have started appearing, and Apple's hardware once again is being bathed in critical acclaim, with just a few cries of discontent here and there.
The new capabilities in the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus may appear underwhelming to some observers, but not to Re/code's Walt Mossberg.
"These are things that improve the quality of the phone while generally making a fluid, powerful product even better -- and faster and easier to navigate and use," he wrote. "They secure the iPhone's place as the best smartphone on the market."
Even more emphatic about the quality of the new iPhone models was John Gruber of Daring Fireball.
"'The Only Thing That's Changed Is Everything' is the slogan of Apple's marketing campaign for the iPhones 6s. I can't beat that," he wrote. "I've been testing both models for 12 days, and what Apple is saying about the new iPhones is true. They don't look new, but almost everything about them is new."


Live Photos

While many reviewers agreed that these latest models were the best iPhones yet, that doesn't mean innovation is alive and well in the smartphone market.
"Smartphone innovation has plateaued, and what we demand most in our newest phones are improvements to the essentials," wrote Joanna Stern of The Wall Street Journal.

Two essentials in a smartphone are taking pictures and navigation, and many reviewers noted that Apple has innovated in those areas with Live Photos and 3D Touch.

Live Photos combines video and still photography into a new content form. It automatically captures 1.5 seconds of video before and after you snap your still shot and lets you export the package as a photo-video hybrid.
"The absolute best thing about the 6s is Live Photos," Stern wrote. "They're awesome for reliving fun moments, especially of an active puppy or child, and anyone with an iOS 9 iPhone or iPad can view them."

Terrific Cameras

Nevertheless, Live Photos appears to be a work in progress.
"If you move your camera immediately before or after taking the photo, the movement will show up in the animated photo," Brian X. Chen wrote for The New York Times. "Several of my Live Photos were ruined because I put the phone down too quickly after taking the picture."

He also would like to be able to turn off audio in Live Photos and be able to edit the video in them -- two capabilities not available in the feature out of the gate.
Another glaring omission in Live Photos, Chen noted, especially in the age of sharing: no Facebook support. Live Photos can be played only on iOS 9 and OS X El Capitan devices.

Those Live Photos, by the way, are being captured by what many reviewers are saying is the best cameras in an iPhone to date. "The iPhone 6s cameras are terrific," wrote Daring Fireball's Gruber. "They're fast, responsive, and accurate -- accurate meaning that unedited, right off the camera roll, the color and light reproduction look like how the scene appeared to my eyes."

3D Touch

Apple did more than tweak the quality of the cameras in the new iPhones from previous models.

"I was incredibly impressed by the differences in camera quality between the iPhone 6 Plus and the iPhone 6s Plus," Matthew Panzarino, a former professional photographer, wrote for TechCrunch. "It's very, very noticeable and very welcome."

The new iPhones also incorporate 3D Touch, which essentially makes touch granular. A light touch can trigger one task; a heavier touch can trigger another. In addition, where you apply pressure can determine which task is performed.

The feature was a hit among some reviewers.

"This is one of those potentially huge user behaviors -- like swiping, or pinching and zooming -- that seem odd or minor at first, but which Apple historically is able to make deeply important and useful," Re/code's Mossberg wrote.
It met with a tepid response from others, including The Times' Chen.
"Unlike past touch gestures on the iPhone, like pinching or swiping, I found 3D Touch, in its current state, to be limited and mostly unnecessary," he wrote.

Processing Muscle

Of course, the reason things like Live Photos and 3D Touch work so well on the new iPhones is the new processor in the smartphones.

"If you operate an iPhone 6 side-by-side with an iPhone 6s, the difference hits you between the eyes," wrote David Pogue for Yahoo Tech. "Opening apps, switching apps, processing things -- it all happens faster on the 6s."

Battery life and storage capacity are two areas where the new iPhones received mixed notices.
"The No. 1 thing people want in a smartphone is better battery life," WSJ's Stern wrote. "The iPhone 6s doesn't deliver that."
However, Re/code's Mossberg was satisfied with the battery life he got from the phones.

"In two weeks of heavier-than-normal use (because I was testing, testing, testing) the iPhone 6s never died on me before I was ready to end my day," he wrote. "Even after 15 hours, there was typically 10 percent or so of battery life left in the tank."

Storage was an issue among many reviewers because new phones have features, such as Live Photos and 4K video, that are byte hogs.
"If there were ever an iPhone that needed more storage, it's this one, yet Apple continues to rip off customers with a 16GB base model ... rather than offer a 32GB one," Stern wrote.

Who should upgrade to the phones? The new phones are a good buy for users of older iPhones, our review sampling suggests.
"If you are thinking of buying a new phone, and you have anything older than an iPhone 6, you should buy an iPhone 6s Plus," wrote Nilay Patel for The Verge. "It is the best iPhone ever made, and it is right now the best phone on the market."

"If you're upgrading from an iPhone 5s or anything older," he added, "it will blow your mind." 

Android 6.0 Marshmallow Features Looking Forward To

The newest version of Android, version 6.0 named Marshmallow, has been available for developers to preview for some time now, with a public release pegged for November 2015. There are a lot of improvements that Google is promising with Android Marshmallow, which give you more control over the phone and improve performance, while also providing new ways to interact with your device.

Here are the 6 features from Android 6.0 Marshmallow that we are most excited about.
1) App permissions
Application permissions have been completely overhauled in Android Marshmallow. Now you will be able to grant apps individual permissions to device functions, instead of the previous model of all or nothing.
What this means is, if an app is trying to access your phones camera or microphone, the system would prompt you saying this app is trying to access camera/ microphone on your device and it will ask, "Would you like to allow this?" It's a big change from the current system where you have to either give an app access to all the services it wants; or not install the app.
Here's another example: If you want to send a voice recording on WhatsApp, the system would give you a prompt telling you that WhatsApp is trying to access the microphone on your phone. This means you don't have to agree to permissions from an app which doesn't make sense to you, such as if you don't want a specific camera app to access your contact list.
Now you can also go into app settings and individually turn on or off app specific permissions at any time. This gives users complete control over an app, and resolves any privacy concerns they might have.
2) Now on Tap
This is one of the most impressive new features to be introduced with Android Marshmallow. Now on Tap takes the concept of the smart assistant Google Now, and spreads it across the entire OS so you can take advantage of it on any screen, regardless of what you are doing. All you need to do, is simply press and hold the home button, and Now on Tap will analyse the information you are looking at, to give you related cards.
For example, you get an SMS from a friend asking if you would like to go to watch the James Bond Spectre movie over the weekend; long press the home button and Google's Now on Tap will automatically recognise the context of the text based on words like 'movie' and 'James Bond Spectre' and show you useful results, such as screening timings in nearby cinema halls, or ratings from IMDB.
3) Fingerprint support
While we've seen Android phones with fingerprint scanners, the implementation was done by vendors themselves. Android Marshmallow will support fingerprint scanners on phones natively now. The new feature will allow the scanners to be used to not only unlock your device, but also use it authorise payments using Android Pay in the offline world or within Play Store apps.
This is important because it will help standardise the implementation of fingerprint scanners in different Android devices, so app developers can take advantage of this new hardware as well. This will also encourage more phone makers to include fingerprint scanners in their devices.
4) App links
App links, also known as Intents, is a feature where if you click on a link in your email or a text message, it asks you what app you would like to open it with. The same thing happens when you click on - for example - a video file or a Facebook link; you are shown all the app that can open the link and asked to choose the one you want to use.
This feature always allowed Android users to set their own default apps, but it was also annoying at times with frequent dialogue boxes asking which app you want to use. App links are now being updated in Marshmallow to show greater awareness of what you're clicking on, instead of routinely stopping you to pop up dialogue boxes.
So, in Marshmallow, if you get an email with twitter link, it will launch the Twitter app instead of asking you to choose between that and the Chrome browser.
5) Doze
One of the most common complaints faced by Android users has been unpredictable standby times on their phones. This happens because of apps running in the background, which can affect the standby time and performance.
Google is now looking to improve this with the feature called Doze. This is a new technology that learns over time and detects when your device is motionless and not being used, so it can be sent into a deep sleep mode. Once your phone is set to Doze, it checks for updates from apps less frequently, while still staying responsive for calls, messages, and other similar things. Google claims that internal tests have showed double the battery life on standby mode, when compared to Android 5.0.
6) Automatic backup and restore
A seamless back up feature is something which has been missing from Android for years, and it looks like Google has finally taken notice. With Android 6.0, you can set up automatic backups, which will back up apps and app settings of up to your Google Drive storage. There will be a limit of 25MB per app, and the backups will not count against your Google Drive storage limits, and are encrypted by default.
These backups happen no more than once a day and run only when the device is idle and is connected to a working Wi-Fi connection to avoid unwanted data charges and battery drain on your device.
This way you can change phones or just reset your phone and when you re-install your apps the previous data will be restored conveniently. This feature works even with apps which have been side-loaded or purchased through other app stores.
These six features are some of the highlights, in our view. Overall, Google is bringing some much needed polish and great new features to the OS in Android 6.0 Marshmallow, and we can't wait to try it on the final release.

Microsoft Office 2016 Launched : Top 10 New Features

On Tuesday, Microsoft announced the availability of Office 2016 for Windows desktop platform. Used by more than 1 billion people worldwide, Office is not only the most popular productivity suite available on the planet, it is also one of the biggest revenue channels for the company.

Microsoft drops a new version of Office every three years. But despite being one of the oldest, and the single-most dominant player in the market, Office today faces more competition than it has in the recent times. A number of emerging players including Google's Drive suite, and open source alternatives like OpenOffice and LibreOffice offer several of Office's features for no cost at all. So what new features has Microsoft added in Office 2016 to drive it miles apart from the rivals? Here are the top 10 features.
1) Co-Authoring
Perhaps the single biggest addition to Office is the introduction of a feature called co-authoring in several of Office applications -- Word and PowerPoint. Co-authoring allows more than one user to work on a document simultaneously. Microsoft says that users can work on a document regardless of the device - read the operating system - they are using.
In addition, when multiple users are working on a document, the participants can see where others are working in a document in real-time. The feature, however, is limited to Word.
2) Office Sway
Microsoft has bundled Sway, a tool the company introduced earlier as a standalone service, right into the Office suite. Sway lets you make stylish media presentations that can be quickly made and embedded on websites.
3) Tell Me
Remember the annoying assistant Clippy that used to come in older versions of Office? Tell Me is a smarter version of it. Available in Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, Project, Visio, and Access, Tell Me is a smart assistant that can understand your queries written in completely human-y words. It will assist you with whatever issues you're having. There is also a feature called Delve, which as the company claims, uses algorithms to bring together the most relevant information or documents in one place.
4) Smart Lookup
Forget the crippled built-in dictionary, Smart Lookup features in the new Office version will provide you with contextual information about words and phrases you need to know more about. When you select a word or a phrase - in Word, PowerPoint, or any other Office application - the sidebar opens at the right side with details about the selected text from various sources, including Wikipedia.

A number of emerging players including Google's Drive suite, and open source alternatives like OpenOffice and LibreOffice offer several of Office's features for no cost at all. So what new features has Microsoft added in Office 2016 to drive it miles apart from the rivals? Here are the top 10 features.
1) Co-Authoring
Perhaps the single biggest addition to Office is the introduction of a feature called co-authoring in several of Office applications -- Word and PowerPoint. Co-authoring allows more than one user to work on a document simultaneously. Microsoft says that users can work on a document regardless of the device - read the operating system - they are using.
In addition, when multiple users are working on a document, the participants can see where others are working in a document in real-time. The feature, however, is limited to Word.
2) Office Sway
Microsoft has bundled Sway, a tool the company introduced earlier as a standalone service, right into the Office suite. Sway lets you make stylish media presentations that can be quickly made and embedded on websites.
3) Tell Me
Remember the annoying assistant Clippy that used to come in older versions of Office? Tell Me is a smarter version of it. Available in Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, Project, Visio, and Access, Tell Me is a smart assistant that can understand your queries written in completely human-y words. It will assist you with whatever issues you're having. There is also a feature called Delve, which as the company claims, uses algorithms to bring together the most relevant information or documents in one place.
4) Smart Lookup
Forget the crippled built-in dictionary, Smart Lookup features in the new Office version will provide you with contextual information about words and phrases you need to know more about. When you select a word or a phrase - in Word, PowerPoint, or any other Office application - the sidebar opens at the right side with details about the selected text from various sources, including Wikipedia.
7) Mail Triage
Microsoft's Clutter feature in Outlook analyses your email pattern and also observes the people you interact with the most, and using these metrics, it prioritises your emails and only shows you what's really important to you while putting low priority emails into a separate folder.
8) Better integration with OneDrive and Skype
OneDrive integration enables you to open an Office document from anywhere and from any supported device. Not only can you access these files, you can in fact pick up right from where have you left on another device.
Skype, as you can imagine, allows you to talk to your colleagues, initiate and join online meetings and share your screen with your colleagues.
9) Planner
Microsoft is also introducing a feature called Planner that allows a team to make projects and quickly make tasks and documents. It utilises Office Graph, a feature that keeps a record of every document, email-related actions, and other activity log of a user. It is very similar to Trello, but with its ability to tap on Office Graph, Planner is arguably more efficient and useful.
10) Windows 10 support
There are several Windows 10 features that work great with Office 2016. Windows Hello - a biometric authentication measure the company introduced with the new desktop operating system which checks a person's face to login to the computer - also works with Office 2016. In addition, Cortana can work in conjunction with Office apps too and fetch important information and perform handy tasks.

Verizon to offer international roaming in Cuba

Verizon today announced that, starting next week, it will offer international roaming to customers traveling to Cuba, making it the first major US carrier to do so. Customers who opt into the Pay-As-You-Go International Travel option for their plans will be able to take advantage of the new package — so long as they have a device that works overseas. The price for connectivity is fairly high, though, coming in at $2.99 per minute for talk and $2.05 per megabyte of data.

Ever since the United States and Cuba moved to normalize diplomatic relations earlier this year, American businesses have moved quickly to expand their operations on the Caribbean island nation. Companies like MasterCard, Netflix, and Airbnb all set up shop in the country in the months that followed. With Verizon now offering roaming to its customers, restrictions that ban tourism make even less sense.

Moto X at best deal at Rs.18,499 : The Lowest cost Android flagship

Motorola has launched the third generation Moto X Play at an event in New Delhi on 14 September. Unlike the previous generation, this time around there will be two flavours of the Moto X, the other being Moto X Style which sports a 5.7 inch Quad-HD display.

Moto X Play has been launched at Rs 18,499 for the 16GB variant and Rs 19,999 for the 32GB variant. The phones will start selling on Flipkart from 12am tonight, along with a raft of introductory offers. We spent some time with the Moto X Play and here are our first impressions.

Build Quality and design

The Moto X Play is beautiful to look at, although you will notice design changes as compared to the Moto X second generation. For instance, the camera section is placed on a rectangular strip of plastic with a minimal dimple, as opposed to the prominent Motorola dimple on second gen Moto X. Also the top portion has the dual SIM card and microSD card slot.

The phone is easy to hold thanks to thin bezel in the sides, but one handed use is not comfortable thanks to the 5.5inch display. The rear textured cover feels nice in the hand and gives a good grip.

The left hand side of the Moto X Play is clean, whereas the right hand side has the power/ standby and volume rocker buttons. While the buttons have a good feedback, Moto could have done with a better build on them. The rear cover is removable, but the battery is concealed. Just like the Moto G 3rd gen, the Moto X Play also comes with the water resistant chops.

Display


The Moto X Play comes with a 5.5-inch full HD display with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection. The display looks crisp and we did not notice any backlight bleeding. Thanks to the thin bezels the Moto X Play has a respectable body to screen ratio. The phone did not have any video samples to check out so we cant comment on that, but text and app icons look sharp.

Chipset, storage, RAM

The Moto X Play comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 SoC with an octa core processor with one quad core cluster clocked at 1.7GHz and the other quad core cluster clocked at 1GHz, along with Adreno 405 GPU. This is paired with 2GB RAM. While preliminary use, the phone seemed to run smooth. There were no noticeable lags in animations, switching applications and so on. We will be putting the phone through its paces when we review it.

The phone comes in two storage variants, 16GB and 32GB. Both variants give you the option to expand the storage using a microSD card slot to upto 128GB.

OS, Connectivity

As we have seen with previous Moto devices launched this year the Moto X Play also comes with the latest Android 5.1 OS with barely any custom skin. Motorola does have its special app called Moto Assist which lets you interact with the phone via voice commands, set profiles according to locations, along with gesture support such as quick twist of the wrist to launch camera, Moto chop feature to launch the flashlight and so on.

On the connectivity front you have a dual 4G nano SIM card configuration, Wifi 802.11n, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS with A-GPS.

Camera and battery

Saving the two best features of the Moto X Play for the last. The phone comes with a 21MP rear camera and a 5MP front facing camera. The camera user interface is not very different from Moto G.

Generally when shooting at 16:9 aspect ratio (full screen shooting mode) the resolution of the camera is cut by a certain amount, but with the Moto X Play you still get 16MP image size. We will have to test the camera to see if this camera delivers good image quality with the higher resolution as well.

Battery is the other most important feature. The Moto X sports a non removable 3630mAh battery. That’s a high capacity and Motorola claims a 2 day battery life with this phone. We will have to test that claim and also the one where Motorola states that you can extract 8 hours worth of talk time with just 15 minutes of Turbo charging.

Conclusion

Motorola has certainly packed in a lot on the Moto X Play and is offering it at a highly competitive Rs 18,499 price tag. The 21MP camera and 3630mAh capacity battery give the Play an edge over competing devices. A stock Android experience and the ability to expand storage will also win the phone extra brownie points.

But will the phone deliver as an everyday workhorse? We will only be able to conclusively tell that once we properly review the Moto X Play. But first impressions certainly look good.
