Motorola X4 is a great phone that feels like it belongs on the flagship side of smartphones. Aside from the pretty good specs that Motorola has offered for this mid-range Moto phone, it manages to fix the errors everytime they release an update and it's great. Motorola X4 is a solid phone that cannot be judged harshly and I believe that people will keep this phone before they upgrade to a new phone later on when the time is right.
- Still manages to hold up like new when installing updates.
- Smooth gaming performance.
- 1080p display is a charm.
- Motorola Turboboost is a lifesaver.
- 30fps or 60fps depending on what resolution you choose to shoot video on.
- The overall design feels sturdy and beautiful to look at.
- Minor crashes when taking a certain picture or opening an app.
- Camera autofocuses like crazy especially in low-light conditions.
- Phone gets somewhat hot after watching a video over 2 hours.
I got the Moto X4 on Google's Project Fi network after going swimming with my Pixel. It was an amazing price, and I don't need top of the line. But when I started getting phone calls, I could hear them fine, but they could barely understand me. After a few weeks of working with support to try and fix anything on the network side, I determined that there was a problem with the phone. That is really my only complaint of the phone. I don't care if the web browser takes an extra second to load, but when an essential function of a phone doesn't work.... Looking through the internet, it doesn't seem extremely common, but I have seen other people with the same problem.

The Moto X4 is definitely a solid contender, and the reviews I've read about this smartphone before purchased it were really underestimated (save for the camera). The phone feels like a solid one with the aluminum and glass feel, not to mention it's not as much of a fingerprint as I expected. The display and the size of the phone all feel just fine, as I can reach everything with one hand, and I use the fingerprint sensor for all the gestures to get more of the screen real estate. The Snapdragon 630 paired with 3 GB of RAM works great, as I don't experience any hiccups, if any. Using the phone unlocked on MetroPCS for me works without a hitch on their LTE network. The dual camera quality is capable of taking shots comparable to a higher-end device, it's the shutter speeds on the device that can easily throw off the focus. The front camera included with flash was definitely impressive enough for me to use with Snapchat which not a lot of Android phones can deliver on the app. Between the great battery life, sharp display, and the solid snappy experience, paying around $400 for the phone outright was worth every penny!
