Lenovo Announces an Upgraded Moto X4

Motorola has announced a new variant of the existing Moto X4 smartphone, which was originally announced as a part of the Android One scheme.

While the original phone was no slouch, being the most-expensive Android One phone to date, the new model increases the RAM and storage, other than providing Android 8.0 Oreo out-of-the-box.

Double The RAM, Double The Storage

The new RAM and storage combination is 6 GB and 64 GB, respectively. This is an increase over the original model’s 3 GB and 32 GB.

Also, the software has been upgraded to bring Android Oreo, which is a plus point over other mid-range phones. The Moto X4 will be able to make use of the tweaks and new features brought in by the update, such as Split-Window support, autofill support in third-party apps, better notification system, and more.

Other Details and Price

Other details, include the 5.2-inch 1080p display on the front, a Snapdragon 630 octa-core processor underneath, and two 12 MP cameras at the back. The pricing is still around INR 24000 (PKR 41,680), though it charges a INR 4000 (around PKR 7,000) premium over the standard model.
