Hi guys!
Flipkart will be offering Moto Turbo at 14k. Add the extra 10% off on SBI cards, it goes down to 12.6k. So, what do u think, is this phone still worthy or we are better off with newer phones like redmi note 3 or le 2 ??

Are you sure it is the Moto Turbo? Or is it Moto G Turbo?

If it is the latter, forget it. Moto G4 Plus is already a better deal (among the Motos).

If it is the Moto Turbo, I would definitely buy it (only not, because bought Redmi 3s Prime just six weeks ago).
For: SD 805/ 3GB/ 64GB/ 1440p @ 565dpi/ 21MP with dual Flash/3900mAH with QuickCharge
Against: No SD Slot/No FM/No Fingerprint/ Almost 2 Years old model

Though it is a 4g phone, I am not sure it is VoLTE compatible. Jio does not list this as true 4G phone. So if you are planning on Jio, you may have to avoid it.

Yes it readily supports 4g in India and No, it won't be getting Nougat most probably, since people in US are yet to receive even Marshmallow! :D
Also it performs at par with Samsung Note 4 which is still a fantastic phablet!

Good luck getting that. Probably fake offer like previous Big billion sale or It willbe 14K for like 1-2 phones, and go out of stock as soon as the sale starts.

Does it supports Reliance Jio 4G.

Just checked xda . No lte band 40 (2300mhz) support as well as no VoLTE support . So if you are buying for 4g support only without VoLTE and no band 40 then it's good for the money . Also no android n .

Custom roms may suit many . But as daily drivers for banking apps , battery backup a stock stable rom is always preferred .
Yes I'm old . I'm using cm since cm 7 on my galaxy y phone from back in the day. But still find stock roms stable . Sorry to offend the younger people here . . OT.

Moto is always better than the other two that you mentioned. I am using Moto X Play and it's working well ! :)
