Since the Nokia Lumia 1320 has recently gotten the Lumia Cyan update, Nokia was kind enough to send me a review unit. I’m doing with it what I do with all review units: camera reviews! Since the Nokia Lumia 1320 is a mid-range phone, it makes sense to compare it to mid-range phones. The scope of this review will be to compare the Nokia Lumia 1320 to the Moto G.
I’m a big fan of the Nokia Lumia 1320. It is one of very few budget phablets that exist. While some might say that Nokia makes too many different phones, they can be commended for making all sizes available to all price points.

I have been spending a lot of time with the Moto G over the last couple weeks. I compared the camera to the Nokia Lumia 635, iPhone 6, and the Moto X and also wrote a full review.
In writing all of these comparisons and reviews, one thing was for sure. If I don’t compare the camera of the Moto G to the OnePlus One, I would get crucified for snubbing the holy grail. After all, there is no one more passionate about their phones as OnePlus One owners.

We spend a lot of time talking about our iPhones, Moto Xs, OnePlus Ones, HTC One M8s, Nokia Lumia 930s, and our LG G3s with their 2.5 GHz Snapdragon 801 processors and 2 or 3 GB RAM. These phones have up to 20 MP rear cameras and up to 5 MP front cameras. Some of them take 4K video. Some of them support RAW photos. The LG G3 has a laser focused camera. The Moto X is always listening.
If you grew up in the 90s like I did, you will have a hard time reciting the specs of the OnePlus One without following it up with “arg arg arg more power” like Tim Allen used to do in Home Improvement.
We spend so much time with these super-powered phones that when a mid-range phone like the Moto G or the Nokia Lumia 635 comes our way, we just sort of say that they are great phones, but we pass them up because they certainly wouldn’t be able to meet our needs.

In the case of hardware, the Moto G and the iPhone 6 are actually very similar phones. The Moto G uses a 1.2 GHz quad core processor while the iPhone 6 uses a 1.4 GHz dual core processor. They both use 8 MP cameras. The iPhone 6 comes in 4.7″ and 5.5″ while the Moto G comes in right in between the two iPhones at 5″.
There are some major differences between the Moto G and the iPhone 6. For one, the Moto G costs $179 and the iPhone 6 costs $649. Here, we will take a look at which has the better camera.
I have already compared the Moto X to the Moto G and I have already compared the iPhone 6 to the Moto X, so there is not much to talk about the Moto X here.

On September 4, 2014, Motorola announced a new family of products: the Moto X, Moto G, Moto 360, and Moto Hint. The Moto 360 is an Android Wear watch and the Moto Hint is a Bluetooth earpiece that is smaller than my fingertip. While the Moto 360 and the Moto Hint are accessories, the Moto X and the Moto G are phones. There is no reason to use both of them.
The Moto G comes in at $179 and the Moto X comes in at $499, assuming that it’s not customized with a wood or leather back, in which case they tack on another $25. So therein lies the question. Is the Moto X worth the extra $320? The Moto X will be the best Android phone to be released this year, but is it $320 better? Let’s find out.
