Motorola - moto z⁴ with 128GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) - Frost White

I would give this a 5star rating but the battery strength shows signs of running down a little faster now than it did the first two days. Note that the phone is about 10days old as I write this review so I was still expecting it to be at top functioning level. Don't get me wrong the battery still lasts me about 22-26hrs depending on usage, but the first three days it lasted about 30-33hrs. Camara is amazing I like the 360° option, size is great for those who like big screens. Cool features.

This is replacing a six year old Galaxy Note 3 that's getting harder and harder to get good batteries for. So far so good with the Z4 Pros -Battery legit lasts 2 days off real world usage and charges in like 30 minutes -Screen is good, quality Samsung display -mod upgradeable, batteries, real cameras, 5g - Not a thousand dollars -headphone jack, no insecure garbage Bluetooth only nonsense -nearly stock Android Cons -Fingerprint sensor is junk, but you should use pins anyway since police can force a Fingerprint unlock but cannot force a password or pin divulge -dimensions are a little weird, easy to slip fingers on the sides interface with apps -I hate notches -Motorola is terrible about software patching, but it ships with Pie so hopefully it'll have a decent lifecycle Overall I'm happy. A Note9 is shinier, but I will never pay a grand for a phone that I use my headphones on

I have been unimpressed by the market lately. Almost got impressed by the hype of pure Android Essential Phone but was left severely disappointed. The Samsung Phones feel cheap to me unless it's a Note then they cost more than a used Honda Civic. Pixel is also too high. Then I saw the Z4 specs and that it was going to be released on June 6th at Bestbuy. I bought it online and picked it up the 6th in store. The screen is awesome! Bright and crisp. The WiFi is fast and picks up great. The battery life is awesome and this is day 2 on the first charge. The fingerprint sensor is fast and has not messed up at all yet. I can multi-task and the phone is smooth as silk. Fast and responsive. I am a power user and this phone is faster than the Essential PH1, The Galaxy S8 and the Pixel XL. The price was 499. PUBG plays in High Graphics mode without a single issue. I swear the only things I am missing that I would like are wireless charging and water proofing. The charger is turbo 17 watt I believe and is supposed to be fast so we will see. I haven't needed to charge it yet. Bluetooth works great and is fast. I have used my Skull any Crusher headphones, Bluetooth out door speaker and transferred pictures from my brick of an Essential over to this via Bluetooth. It came with the 360 degree camera mod which works great and takes awesome pictures. This phone is compatible with any network both GSM and CDMA. I am using it on CDMA right now. In phone camera is as good as my Samsung's have been. The 2ghz Octacore, 4gb RAM, 6.4 inch screen and future 5G ability made me really excited about this phone as compared with the selection of alternatives in this price range.

Too early to tell with confidence, but overall it is a great camera with a good phone. Mine came with Moto 360 which I have not tried enough to judge! Can't beat the Sprint offer through bestbuy.

Everyone keeps calling this a mid-range smartphone, but it feels pretty premium to me. I love the fact that it has 128GB of memory, it has room for all my apps and then some. It's an absolute performance beast, I can go practically a whole day without having to charge it.

Noticeably faster CPU than my Moto G6. The fingerprint reader supposedly works well if you don't use a screen protector... so the choice is to risk expensive damage to the screen to use the fingerprint feature, or protect the screen and suffer with the poor reader performance. I choose to protect it and use the face recognition to bypass the fingerprint reader. BTW: Most apps have no problem using the reader with a screen protector present!

This is a really good budget phone. In a world of $1000+ phones, this gives you a really good screen, a powerful camera, and snappy performance for half the price. It comes with the Moto 360 camera Moto Mod, but I honestly would never see myself using this function. So far, the only qualm I have with the phone is the fingerprint reader. The reader on the Z3 Play was on the side and never failed me. This one is built into the screen and almost never gets it on the first try. I ended up just turning it off, which is annoying. If you’re in the market for a new phone and don’t want to sell your first born to afford it, check this one out.

For those of you looking to not break the bank on a new Samsung, Apple, Google, etc. phone, the Motorola Moto z4 is outstanding right out of the box. Intuitive interface, top level technology for the average user, and endless customizable options make this phone a sure winner.
