After losing the own-brand low-cost domestic battle to Xiaomi and Huawei, Lenovo is more than keen to keep Motorola phones at the forefront of the sub-$250 US scene at the very least, baking pretty robust specs into the Moto G4 and G4 Plus.Even better, the two respectable mid-rangers are offered at a cool discount right off the bat stateside, although technically, you have a pair of third-party retailers to thank for the limited-time promo. Both Best Buy and B&H Photo Video will throw in ...

Components spotted on Zauba hint at Moto G4 specs

It feels kinda uncomfortable using the “Moto G4” moniker, given that Motorola typically goes for the “Xth Gen.” suffix on the back of new Moto G offerings, but it’s good enough for a shorthand when blathering on about it.A bigger name game comes down to its internal codename, speculated to be “Athene”. Quite a few components for said Athene smartphone ...

Motorola previews Moto G4 with better battery, camera, and security in India

While we still wouldn’t rule out the third-generation Moto E as a suspect for a May 17 introduction in India, the event’s venue, timing and now buildup all suggest something bigger (both literally and figuratively speaking) is coming.Namely, the fourth-gen Moto G, aka G4, which might actually be two phones, including an

Actual Moto G4 photos surface, starring front-fitted fingerprint sensor and redesigned rear

As much as we appreciate any valuable piece of information revealed in advance of a high-profile mobile product launch, especially one hailing from Twitter’s most prolific tipster, the recent Moto G4 Plus fingerprint scanner “leak” wasn’t accompanied by the greatest visual confirmation.But now we have our concrete proof, and while there’s no way to verify the validity of just-divulged “Moto G 2016” live pics, they sure fit last week’s description, and look overall trustworthy. ...

Motorola ‘Moto G4 Plus’ tipped to replace bottom front speaker with fingerprint sensor

‘Tis the season for Motorola product leaks. After all, Lenovo’s daughter company has remained one of very few mobile industry veterans with not a single hardware launch to its name this year.Based on previous roadmaps, we’d obviously expect the third-generation Moto E (by Lenovo) to come to light first, followed closely by a fourth-gen Moto G and Moto X Style, aka Pure Edition, sequel. But we still know very little about the three purported phones, so either they’re not exactly around the corner or leaksters and tipsters will soon be put out of their jobs.Hot on the heels of a Moto ...

And while that probably means a new Moto X, and likely another Moto G, what can we look forward to from the phones themselves? We were promised “more innovative, more attractive” designs, but

And by the way, the Moto G and E aren’t guaranteed fingerprint sensors

An interview with Lenovo SVP Chen Xudong has been strung out and splayed apart over and over again as bloggers translating the transcript have been left drawing some troubling conclusions.
