Design
Although Motorola One Macro belongs to the budget class of phones, in appearance you can not define it as such. The plastic casing is characterized by a subtle smooth gradient that goes from deep purple to fuchsia color from top to bottom.
This Motorola model comes in two color options: a bright Ultra Violet and a more restrained Space Blue.
The build quality of the phone is top notch. It is compact and lies nicely in the palm.
Display
The screen of the Motorola One Macro is made using IPS technology. Its diagonal is 6.2 inches. The resolution is HD (1520×720). The pixel density is 270. The manufacturer has also provided a protective 2.5D glass. The aspect ratio of the screen is 19:9.
What about the image quality?
Despite the modest resolution, the texts on the screen are perfectly readable. Colour rendering and contrast are on par. You can read from the screen without problems, being outside in sunny weather.
Performance
Hidden under the attractive gradient design is an 8-core Helio P70 chipset from MediaTek with a maximum clock speed of 2.1 GHz and a Mali-G72 MP3 GPU. The smartphone is available in one modification - with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of permanent storage. The latter can be expanded with the help of a memory card, for this you need to sacrifice one SIM card.

Cameras
The main camera of Motorola One Macro consists of three modules. The flagship is a 13-megapixel one and has a light sensitivity of f/2.0.
