Editorial report

Motorola One Action technical sheet

The Motorola One Action suits buyers looking for a tall display and an ultrawide camera, but its battery has less capacity and charges more slowly than most phones launched around the same time. Its 3,500 mAh battery and 10 W charging are the main trade-off for this kind of buyer.

The 6.3-inch IPS LCD uses a 21:9 format and has 432 ppi, among the highest pixel densities of phones of its time. A 16 MP ultrawide camera widens the view, while the main camera records 4K at 30 fps. The 1/2.8-inch main sensor is smaller than those in most phones from the same period. There is no optical zoom or optical image stabilization.

The Exynos 9609 comes with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, expandable by card. Its AnTuTu v7 result of 148,748 is below average. Overall, its connectivity and display are above average among phones launched around the same time; NFC, USB Type-C, and a 3.5 mm audio jack are included. At 176 g, it weighs less than average. Its overall standing is below average, with a NeoScore of 4.2. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize the 21:9 format and ultrawide camera over battery capacity.
