Moto E5 Plus, Moto E5 Features

The Moto E5 rocks a Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 mobile processor which is coupled with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. The phone also supports expandable via microSD card (up to 128GB).

The Moto E5, on the other hand, houses a 5.7-inch display that has same HD+ resolution and 18:9 aspect ratio as the E5 Plus. Lenovo is obviously cutting a few corners here. The Moto E5 gets a quad-core Snapdragon 425 chipset clocked at 1.4GHz and coupled with 2GB of RAM and 16GB storage.
