You can't spell mid-range without an M. The Moto M, as an Android mid-range model, it checks all the right boxes – it has good specs, great design, and an affordable price. The Moto M carries a 5.5-inch display with a 1080 x 1920 resolution and 2.5D curved glass. Powering the handset is a MediaTek Helio P15 chipset with an octa-core 2.2GHz CPU and the Mali-T860MP2 GPU. 4GB of RAM is inside along with 32GB of native storage. The 16MP rear-facing camera comes with PDAF focusing, and an 8MP front-facing camera handles selfies and video chats; a fingerprint scanner is placed right under the rear camera. Keeping the lights on is a 3050mAh battery, and a USB Type-C port is included. This sounds like а winning combination. However, the real problem occurs if you don't backup your Moto M data regularly.

Google drive is OK.
