Moto G4 Plus has a hidden LED !

Moto G4 Plus has a hidden LED !


Recently Launched Motorola Smartphone i.e Moto G4 Plus has an hidden LED light , Just like Moto G 3rd Generation .

We still don't know why Motorola hides the led light and there is no option to enable it on the Stock Firmware . Though Motorola provides a feature called Moto Display which works fantastic .



The LED Light is embedded near the Right side of Fingerprint sensor . The LED only pops up when the Smartphone is charged .

Here's a video by Maurson Technology , which shows the hidden LED light on the Moto G4 Plus -




Motorola leaks Android O

You read that right! In a recent promotional image for the new Motorola Moto G4 phones Motorola states it will get updated to Android N and O!




Motorola leaks Android O

Two days ago Google introduced Android N at Google I/O with some tweaks and new features, but now Motorola just leaked the name of the next Android version: N. Will Google stop releasing system versions named after desserts? We can't know that for sure yet. What will O improve over N? It's too far away to know.




One thing is clear, though, the new Moto G4 will get the next two versions of Android, and that's something really cool. When will it get N or O? That's a very good question that we are not able to answer right now, but let's hope it gets N as fast as possible.

Motorola keeps teasing the RAZR

We were the first to report the news: Motorola is teasing the RAZR. Now that everyone else is reporting it, Motorola uploaded the video to its YouTube account, and it makes us wonder...is it a new RAZR really coming?

Motorola keeps teasing the RAZR

Motorola Mobility's account just uploaded the video we were talking about today, which means this is a real ad for the new Moto phone that is coming on June 9th. They've also been talking about the RAZR since last week and through their new Snapchat account they are only posting videos about the iconic V3. Now, it's possible that it's not a RAZR, but the phones codenamed Vector Thin and Vertex are rumored to be only 5.2mm thin. Maybe Moto is trying to point out that the new devices will be so cool that everyone will have them, like the original RAZR. 


Whatever it is, we can all agree that the ad looks great and reminds us of the old Motorola, even having the HelloMoto ringtone at the end. At the end of the video we are pointed out to a motorola.com subscription page, so that we are the first to know about the new phone: Here

Here is the amazing video we are talking about, in case you missed it:




Motorola is teasing a new RAZR for June 9th?


The king is back and better than ever! Over the last few days, Motorola's Twitter account has been remembering the iconic RAZR phone, and now they just uploaded a video teasing a new RAZR!



Is this "Vector Thin"? Is this the new modular phone? Are we getting a flip smartphone? There are many questions going around, but all we know is that the phone is coming on June 9 at Lenovo Tech World Event. The press release for the event said: "new technology designed by Motorola". Watch the video after the jump.





The MotoRAZR is still one of the best selling phones of all time. Up to 2012 it had sold 150 million units worldwide according to Motorola. It was the #1 selling phone in the USA from 2004 to 2008, even outselling the original iPhone and iPhone 3G during that period of time.

Motorola brought back the RAZR brand in 2011 with the Droid RAZR and RAZR MAXX phones, which won "Best of CES" at the 2012 CES show. The device was one of the best selling phones in Latin America and the US.



Is a new RAZR really coming? We will find out soon, but we really hope there is!

Are you excited for the new phone Motorola is teasing to us? Tell us in the comments section.

5 reasons not to buy the Moto G4 Plus

5 reasons not to buy the Moto G4 Plus


Yesterday Motorola and Lenovo announced the Moto G4 , Moto G4 Plus and Moto G4 Play . The Moto G4 and G4 Play will arrive later this summer , but Moto G4 Plus is readily available .



Also Read -




Moto G4 Plus is a overall a great deal , but if you value good value, you could find an even better deal out there. So here are five reasons not to buy a Moto G4 Plus .



1. Overpriced -


The Motorola Moto G4 Plus comes in two variants - 16GB / 2GB at 13,499/- and 32GB / 3GB at 14,999/- . The Smartphone is a bit overpriced as compared to ZUK Z1 which comes in 13,499/- and Redmi Note 3 which comes in 9,999 ( 16GB/2GB ) and 11,999 ( 32GB/3GB ) .


2. No water resistance -


The Motorola Moto G4 Plus has an advanced nano-coating technology that creates a water repellent barrier to help protect against moderate exposure to water such as accidental spills, splashes or light rain. It Not designed to be submersed in water, or exposed to pressurized water, or other liquids like the Moto G3 .




3. Too big -


5.2 is the most preferred size of a Smartphone . The Moto G4 Plus comes with a 5.5 inch FHD Display , that seems to be too big . Big Smartphone's have a great chances to slip from hand and  even get shattered after a drop . 

After-all many People prefer to use 5 inch and 5.2 inch Smartphones .


4. No Notification LED -


There is no way to find out if you�ve missed any incoming calls or message while you had to ignore your phone? Of course, you can enable Moto Display and get pop-up on your screen when you get any notification . But Still Notification LED Plays an important role in bringing your attention towards the Smartphone , if you gets any notification .



5. Heating issue -


According to a Gaming Review with Temp Check of Moto G4 Plus by Geekyranjit , The Temperature of the device goes to 45� in 15 minutes of Gaming .

Though Geekyranjit hadn't noticed any lags while playing Games , but the screen becomes too hot under 15 minutes of Gaming .
