Motorola has officially announced the first member of its 2019 Z lineup – the Moto Z4. The phone is a mid-range smartphone and it retains the Moto Mods compatibility of the Moto Z3. Get the full information about the Motorola Moto Z4 as you read on.
Motorola Moto Z4 Features
The Motorola Moto Z4 comes with a 6.4 inches FHD+ OLED screen with a 19:9 aspect ratio and waterdrop notch that houses the 25MP selfie camera. The phone has an in-display fingerprint reader for your biometric security needs and features a Gorilla Glass 3 protection.
At the back of the Moto Z4, you will find a single 48MP main camera with OIS which utilizes quad Bayer color filter outputting 12MP shots. Motorola is also bringing the Night Mode from the Motorola One Vision alongside the standard array of AI enhancements.
The Motorola Moto Z4 is powered by the Snapdragon 675 chipset, paired with 4GB RAM and 128GB internal storage (the internal storage can be expanded further via the use of a microSD card). Although not flagship grade specs, they should be enough to handle everyday tasks and will likely result in better battery performance.
Talking about the battery, the Moto Z4 packs a 3600mAh battery cell, which can charged via the 15W Turbo Power charger introduced in the box. Just like other Motorola phones, the Z4 runs on a near-stock build Android 9 Pie with minor improvements like the Moto Actions which can help you launch the camera app or toggle the flashlight directly from the lock screen.
The signature Moto Mods are also supported by the new handset and for an extra $200 you’ll get the 5G Moto mod to access the next-gen networks. Other extras include a 3.5mm headset jack, NFC and P2i splash-proof nano-coating for added durability.
Motorola Moto Z4 Price and Release Date
The Motorola Moto Z4 price is $499 and it will be released on June 6th 2019. The phone will come in Flash Grey and Frost White colours. Those who will purchase their device from Best Buy, B&H or Amazon will receive a free 360-degree camera Moto Mod as an added bonus. Verizon will also offer the new handset starting June 13 with plans starting at $10/month bundled with the 5G Moto Mod.
