MOTO G4 PLUS: POST NOUGAT UPDATE !!

By -

Update: Moto G4 plus/ G4 now receiving security patches till December in the latest update!! Update now.






Welcome to Techno Reviews !!
Well, now most of you in India must have got the nougat update by now which was released as the company promised in December(though in the last week, but technically it is still 2016). I took some time to write this review as I was going through all the new features testing them one by one.
So let's get started !!The phone has got a couple of new stuff both from Google and from Motorola.

BY GOOGLE:


From Google we get all the features Nougat has and the phone pretty much feels complete now.
Though I expected a bit more in the battery life, but with doze on the move feature, battery life has definitely improved. The phone unlike that of 'doze' in Marshmallow need not be stationary.
Read more about it at Android Authority.

The two-page notification
bar
Apart from the 'N' symbol in android version, there are plenty of new stuff you can see,
This includes a new notification bar, this time the phone gets a smaller menu on the first swipe where you have the basic functions likes WIFI, Mobile data, battery life. On second swipe you get a menu similar marshmallow menu but this time you have 2 pages with shortcuts and you can add or remove them which was a feature only found in the system tuner in 6.0.
Well, a slight disappointment is we've got no game time like we got in Lollipop and Marshmallow after long pressing the 'N'.
Split screen

When it comes to the settings menu we've got a slight change in its look. We now have suggestions showing up and we've got a quick settings menu if you swipe from the left of the screen which lists every setting, so you basically don't have to keep going back again and again to access different options.
The smaller quick access menu 
We also have this time the most awaited split screen mode this time, which is now made official in Nougat.
Though not many apps support it but it is quite nice for apps like YouTube which don't play in the background.
That's like what Google is giving us so now let's see what MOTOROLA has in stock for us.

BY MOTOROLA:

One hand mode 
Motorola has added a new one hand mode which was already present in MOTO G-Play. This basically shrinks the screen on swiping from the bottom of the screen to either side in a curve. This has to be enabled from the MOTO actions app.
Setting up Wallpaper
We now can set different wallpapers for Lock screen and Home screen, the process basically remains the same but now you get an option which asks which screen to set the wallpaper.
Also, they have finally added a real useful feature, that is now you will be able to lock your phone using the fingerprint sensor, Finally we have one more use to the fingerprint sensor
Well, that's all folks comment if you wanna ask something !!

Well MOTOROLA did announce about these phones getting the Android O update too so we may probably end up getting some more awesome features by this time in next year, for now, et's keep our fingers crossed!
