New Delhi: Motorola is all set to launch its fourth generation Moto G smartphone on May 17 in Delhi. The smartphone makers have come out with teaser ads on their Twitter accounts which suggest that the phone will beat the Moto G3 with its new features and more.
Previous Moto G devices have offered excellent performance, though the camera has been its weakest link. The company did improve camera performance on its Moto X Play, Moto X Style and Moto X Force smartphones and has worked upon the camera of the new Moto G4.
This also could be the first smartphone to feature the ‘Moto by Lenovo’ branding but this will only be confirmed on the launch.
From all the tweets and other leaks and revelations, here are the 5 need-to-know things we have compiled for you about the smartphone:
