Announced a couple of weeks ago , the Moto Z4 is pretty similar to its predecessors.

It packs a Snapdragon processor, which has moderately better performance than the two-year-old Snapdragon that's been in the last two generations. Given the price of the device and the Moto Mod, it's pretty much the most inexpensive 5G device on the market. Motorola also added a headphone jack, something that's been lacking in the top-end of the Moto Z lineup. It has a similar body size and shape to all previous generations of the product, although it is slightly different. It's easy to tell that the Mods don't fit quite the same way.
Motorola can be commended here though.
Moto Z4 Review: A Solid 5G-Ready Phone for $499
The Lenovo-owned company only promised three generations of compatibility with its Mods, and now it's on its fourth generation. Just like last year, the phone is a glass sandwich with a metal frame. This year though, the flat back of the device has a matte finish, and you'd probably think it's metal by looking at it. With this in mind, it's hard to understand why Motorola didn't just use metal like it did for generations prior to the Moto Z3.
After all, glass is more prone to shattering, and there's no functional benefit like wireless charging. The matte finish is quite nice, and it feels smooth to the touch. I've said this about the Moto Z lineup before, but it sort of feels like half of a phone.
The device is very thin, and it's completely flat.
It feels like you're supposed to snap a Moto Mod on the back. The camera module sticks out from the handset quite a bit too, which will be completely flush with the backs of some Mods. At the bottom of the back of the phone, there are 16 pins, which are how Moto Mods connect to it. Interestingly, not all Mods connect to all 16 pins. Many people have considered the Moto Z lineup to simply be too thin to include a headphone jack, but it finally has one.
Previously, you've needed a Moto Mod for that, just like you would for wireless charging. The right side of the device is where you'll find the power button and the volume rocker, and there's a nano-SIM slot on top. One thing that you won't find on the side of the device this year is the fingerprint sensor, as that's not in the screen.
Remember, Motorola can't go and put a fingerprint sensor on the back of the device, since that's expected to be covered with a Moto Mod at least some of the time. The Moto Z4 has a 6. Rather than , this one is , so it's really just a bit taller. The Moto Z2 Force was at 5.
Obviously, the screen is measured diagonally, which is how it's managed to grow almost an inch without the body being wider. With OLED, pixels can be turned off, so you get true blacks. That means that when you use the 'peek display', you can't see where the screen ends and the bezels begin. You'll notice on a Moto G device that you can see that the entire screen is backlit on the ambient display feature.
Colors rendered on top of the true blacks are more vibrant than when on top of a backlight, and the Moto Z4 doesn't disappoint. This screen is beautiful. The screen also has a fingerprint sensor in it, which is frankly awful. Early in-display fingerprint sensors weren't very good, but that's gotten much better, such as the one in the OnePlus 7 Pro. But the Moto Z4 doesn't have the same support that you get with a Snapdragon , such as support for ultrasonic in-display sensors.
In short, the fingerprint reader in the Moto Z4 is painfully slow, and it's not perfectly accurate. The screen also has a small notch at the top to make room for the 25MP front-facing camera. It's one of the least intrusive notches out there.
As far as bezels go, I have to give Motorola some credit for not trying to kill off bezels completely. While they're narrow on all sides, the company didn't go completely edge-to-edge. This is nice, because I didn't have any problems with false touches. If you're not picking up a Moto Mod or two, this probably isn't the phone for you. In fact, this is probably for you if you're already invested in the Moto Z ecosystem.
But yes, it's all about the Moto Mods. These include a game controller, a speaker, an Alexa speaker, a degree camera, and a battery pack. Here's the deal. For the most part, you won't be using these things all of the time. The degree camera Mod has a big camera sticking out of the top. No one wants to carry that around frequently. The Alexa speaker is massive, and the gaming controller makes it a very tall device.
