The Moto G4 is no different. It has a high-quality build and a replaceable back if you want to add a splash of color to it.
Inside, water repellent nanocoating protects the phone’s interior from damage ( the phone isn’t designed to be submerged like the G3) but should be splash-proof.
The Moto G2 was the only model that had stereo speakers, and while the Moto G4 has only one, it’s still positioned on the front. It’s this kind of attention to detail that made the G-series so popular. To get the obvious things out of the way, no, there’s no fingerprint reader on the Moto G4, you’ll need to upgrade to the Moto G4 Plus for that. The G4 Plus also brings a better still camera, 16MP, but the sealed 3, 000mAh battery remains the same.
The Moto G4 Play is another model from the product family. It’s a completely different device with a smaller 5-inch display, unlike what the name might suggest.
While we haven’t had a chance to check out the G4 Play, we can testify that the regular G4 we’re reviewing today feels fast and smooth despite the conservative choice of chipset. It seems that without the burden of a skin and extra background services, the Snapdragon 617 can really shine and performing any task on the phone feels surprisingly brisk.
