After the acquisition of Motorola by Lenovo Moto ji Fourth generation smartphone Lenovo is branding in. The classic Motorola logo can still be seen in the handset but it is clear that Lenovo wants to introduce Moto as its sub-brand. Especially the company plans to replace its Vibe series with Moto smartphones.
Moto G (Jane 3) ,Review) And Moto G (Turbo Edition) ,Review) The smartphone was successful but we had a complaint about the camera performance in these phones. But Motorola has faced this problem in all its smartphones. Moto G4 Plus smartphone, Moto G4 There is a slightly better specified phone than in which more better features are given as camera and software. Today we will review this new smartphone of Moto G4 Plus and see how this smartphone of Moto is.
Look and design
Motorola’s well-known design can also be seen in G4 Plus. However, this is not completely as before, but it can definitely be identified as a moto product. Rubber’s rear cover with spherical metal frame gives a good grip to the phone. This phone is slightly larger than the previous Moto G smartphone, which is due to the 5.5-inch full-HD TFT screen given in it. Even in sunlight, the smartphone can be run very easily and brilliant colors can be seen in the display. Corning Gorilla Glass has been given for protection. The G4 Plus is quite thin and its thickness is 7.9 mm. But taking the phone in hand does not make it heavy.
The Moto G4 Plus does not have a trademark grille given in the Moto G smartphone. But this new smartphone of Moto has given place to fingerprint sensor. It works not only on touching as a physical button. The fingerprint sensor can identify the fingerprint from any angle and in addition to sometimes, it works very well.
All the buttons have been well appointed in the phone, so that they easily reach the user. The headphone shock is upwards while the micro-USB port is given at the bottom.
In the previous smartphone of the Moto G model, instead of the curved design of the rear, this phone has a flat rear. The phone has a 16-megapixel camera with dual-tone LED flash and laser autofocus system which can be called a good upgrade.
On removing the rear panel, a non -removable 3000 mAh battery can be seen in the phone. At the same time, microSD card (132 GB support) and two micro-SIM slots are given on the edge. The Moto G4 Plus comes with Nano-to-Micro SIM card adapter. But this phone does not have an IP67 certification (water resistant) like the previous variant.
A turbopower charger (25 watt) and a headset are found in the phone’s retail box. But the wall charger is not a modular, so you will need a separate USB cable to transfer data. The quality of the headset is a bit bad and it did not fit properly in our ears.
Specification and feature
Moto G4 Plus has Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 617 processor that runs on a 1.5 GHz octa-core chip. Use of this processor HTC One A9 ,ReviewIt was also done in. This phone will get the option of 3 GB RAM and 32 GB storage and 2 GB RAM and 16 GB storage. For connectivity, options like 4G LTE (category 4), Bluetooth 4.11 low energy, dual band Wi-Fi B/G/N, GPS, Glonas, USB-OTG and FM radio have been given. You will not get the feature of NFC in this phone.
Like all Moto’s smartphones, the G4 Plus runs on the Near-Stock version of Android but this time Android Marshmallow 6.0.1.
The Moto G4 Plus has an LED of the fingerprint sensor, but we saw that it works quite well during charging. Apart from this, other motion-based gestures work easily. The phone does not have a lot of pre-loaded apps but the file manager and Google’s standard apps have been given.
Performance
The Moto G4 Plus is a good performance in which hardly anything makes it bad. In the phone, the user gets 1.2 GB RAM for use. We did not see any problem in this phone during animation and app switching. Playing the phone game is hot at the time of Samay or Data-GPS on, but not so much that it cannot be used. During the heat of the phone, you may have some problems in the camera app, which may also be due to controlling the CPU speed of the system to protect the phone from overheating. We got good benchmark figures of the phone.
Google’s photo app has replaced the gallery app, which we did not like it but it works. Full-HD videos are easily played in the phone. In the photo app, photos can be edited and video can be trimmed. Play music app has been given for music but FLAC files do not support. Equalizers for wired headphones and speakers are also provided. A single speaker gets good sound for alert in general media playback and earpiece.
One of the biggest feature of G4 Plus is the G4 Plus camera. The 16 -megapixel rear camera comes with aperture F/2.0, Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF). The phone has a laser autofocus system to imprison the object quickly. Slider can be used to adjust tap-to-focus and exposure to focus the subject. Long tapping on the subject makes the focus locked which helps a lot. Apart from this, the camera app has slow-motion video, panorama and a professional mode. The camera app looks quite a handy when you can agreed focus, white balance, shutter speed, ISO and exposure agent in low light.
Landscape and macro photographs in daylight provide photos of good quality than before. Detailing is quite good and cameras can be taken with good color pictures. We would recommend that the HDR set an auto set as it helps in making the photos extremely good. At the same time, the pictures taken in the indoor looks right to see, but on zoom, detailing and colors look scattered. A maximum of 1080 pixels video recording can be done and photos are good in daylight and low light. A good detail selfie can be taken from the front camera in good light. Apart from this, barcode and QRCode can be read directly from the camera app itself.
battery life
In the video loop test of the Moto G4 Plus battery, Bataru supported us for 12 hours and 4 minutes, which is quite good. At the same time, we were able to run this smartphone of Moto for about one and a half days with full charge with both SIM cards in general use. The phone supports turbopower or fast charging, which causes the battery to charge quickly.
Our decision
The new smartphone of the Moto G series Moto G4 Plus can be called a welcome option that comes with performance and feature upgrade. The phone has a processor according to the need, so that Android works easily. A good fingerprint sensit, good camera and the best battery life makes the phone fantastic. Moto G4 Plus is a very good option in this price range.
The collision has become quite tight, but in our eyes, Moto G4 Plus has everything from which it makes its own place. Its most special feature is the release of Android updates on time. The G4 Plus could have been better if like the previous smartphone, it would have been given water and dust protection features. At the same time, the poor performance of the camera could also be improved in low light.
If you are looking for a phone that comes with a great feature at a low price, then Moto G4 Plus is a good option.
