Unlocked Moto X4 now available

The Moto X4 was released early in September but chose the tedious route into consumer hands, with the mid-range device only being available under the Project Fi umbrella at launch, before joining the pack of Amazon Prime Exclusive phones a few weeks ago. All that has been put to rest, though, as Motorola has released a variant of the phone that will be available to the general public.

The Moto X4 is now available on shops like Best Buy, B&H Photo, and Newegg, for a price of US$399. Unlike previous iterations that opted for stock Android, this one uses Motorola's own software, which, thankfully, is one of the better ones out there, so there isn't much to complain about.

And for a quick reminder of what you'll be getting from this:

• 5.2-inch FHD display
• 3 GB of RAM
• Snapdragon 630
• 32 GB of storage
• Dual rear cameras (12 MP + 8 MP) with OIS
• 16 MP front-facing camera
• MicroSD support
• IP68 certification
• 3000 mAh battery

It runs on Android 7.1.1 out of the box but Motorola has promised Android Oreo for it, so it's just a matter of time.
