Motorola recently launched the Motorola Moto X play. The Moto X play comes under the sub Budget category of around 300$. The Moto X has a Qualcomm snapdragon 615 octa core processor, 2GB of DDR3 RAM and a Adreno 405 GPU. The Motorola Moto X comes with 5.5″ HD display. This time it has a IPS display rather than the super Amoled display we had last time. The Moto X play comes with stock Android which is far more better than any other skinned Android version but we get a limited amount of customization in it. WIth the help of this ROM you can customize your Moto X play to further extent.
