The Lenovo-owned Motorola brand could soon be giving the iPhone 6s a run for its money in terms of specs. As of now, one of the most important features in any phone is the ability to take high-quality photos. With a generation obsessed with selfies, this phone could outmaneuver the Phone 6s on the market.
What the Entail?
Motorola released the phone in India, dubbed the Moto G4 and G4 plus. These phones look alike. However, the G4 plus is slightly more powerful in terms of specs. This is what makes it competitive with pricier brands like the iPhone.
These phones feature a 5.5-inch screen that is full HD; this is an awesome point to note. Most 5.5-inch screens that are considerably pricier usually avoid installing an HD screen for cost purposes. They use a Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 processor and they are equipped with a 5-megapixel front camera.
The phones feature a powerful battery that can hold 3,000 mAh of charge. The G4 model features a slightly smaller memory of 16GB. The back camera is 13megapixels while its RAM is 2GB, which is quite powerful.
In the G4 plus model, the back camera is quite powerful. At 16 megapixels, it is among the most powerful cameras available to consumers. In addition, it packs a powerful RAM of 3GB and a huge storage of 32GB. Other features that set it apart are the f/2.0 aperture. This camera features autofocus capabilities. Apparently, Motorola has spent considerable research on the camera. They spent a lot of time talking about it at their unveiling.
The G4 plus comes with a good quality fingerprint sensor. This, combined with the powerful camera could push it popularity quite high. Many people also want to have a fingerprint sensor on their phone; they feel that this is a more secure form of locking their phones. With so many people conduction transactions online, a fingerprint sensor will help make transactions more secure.
How Good is their Camera?
Researchers who have done an analysis of the camera are quite impressed. As of now, they rate the images it produces to be of better quality than those of the iPhone 6s. But no one is talking about the video quality. This would imply the iPhone 6s outperforms it in this area. However, most consumers who use phones use them for photos and not videos. It would thus indicate that the camera still scores slightly lower than that on the iPhone 6s. However, it is still an impressive camera for such a price.
Other Models
The cheapest model in the Motorola lineup is the G4 play. This phone will not feature a HD screen. It has a 720P screen and will be marketed to the lower end of the market. It will have a weak camera at only 8 megapixels. Overall, this is a weak phone. Even the RAM on this phone is quite weak. Besides that, the phone is not waterproof; It will only be splash proof.
Other notable aspects of this phone are; smaller display and a slightly weaker process -Snapdragon 410 processor. The battery is a minor upgrade from the previous Gs, however at 2800mAh, it is also weaker than the flagship model.
What to Expect?
The premium model either comes in 32GB or 64GB storage. For those who choose the higher capacity storage, they can use the phone that has a 3GB RAM. The weaker model will offer buyers some great options. If one buys a device with a weak storage, they will be able to upgrade it with the memory card slot. The slot can hold a memory card with up to 128GB of storage.
Where They Debut and Price?
Motorola will first release the device in its biggest markets. These are Brazil and India. The company will then release the phones across Europe and the US around June and then by the end of July, they will reach most of the world. However, these dates cold be pushed up if interest in the phones grows too much.
The prices of the models will surprise many. The phones are expected to be below $200. These phones will likely range from $150 to $200. However, Motorola has not yet confirmed this price. From what they offer, this is quite an awesome price to start.
These phones are high end, good build phones that happen to go for a low price. If you need a phone that meets all your selfie needs, consider the Moto G4; they offer good value for money.
