Lenovo K5 Plus vs Moto E3 Power: Design and display

Both smartphones come in 5-inch size but Moto E3 Power weighs around 11 grams heavier than Vibe K5 Plus as listed in GSM Arena. That is quite a gap. As dual-SIM phones, the handsets pack IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen but Lenovo manages to equip the K5 Plus with better screen resolution (1080 x 1920 pixels) and good view under the sunlight with its 441 ppi pixel density.  Moto E3 Power offers a considerably lower resolution with 720 x 1280 pixels and adequate 294 ppi pixel density.

As for the design, Moto E3 Power looks identical to Moto G4 Play. It's a sturdy phone but not with the best design. The budget phone seems to lack of premium feel unlike the K5 Plus. However, the good thing is that E3 Power is splash-proof - in case you would like to bring it for a 'fun by the poolside' - but not inside.

Moving to Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus - the phone comes with aluminum body and it feels nicer to hold. It has LED notification, too - something that E3 Power does not.

The Vibe K5 Plus gets 13 MP and 5 MP cameras. On paper, the rear shooter offers higher spec than in Moto E3 Power but the image quality seems to be a bit disappointing. When shooting in low-light condition, K5 Plus camera result shows its weakness.
