Today Motorola launches the new Moto Z4 (stylised: moto z4). The Z4 follows up on last year’s Z3 and represents Motorola flagship device for 2019. Yet the Z4 isn’t targeting the flagship segment per se; the company attempts to target the “premium” segment, the category of devices just below common flagship phones, yet still offering most of the specifications and features at a lower price point.

The Moto Z4 comes with a brand-new 48MP camera as well as Qualcomm’s newest Snapdragon 675 SoC, all in an bezel-less OLED display that has a screen-to-body ratio competing against the best flagship devices from the competition.

The new Moto Z4 is powered by Qualcomm’s newest Snapdragon 675 SoC which was announced in October last year. The chipset differs quite a lot from past 600-series iteration by the fact that it uses a new high-end based Cortex-A76 / Kryo 460 CPU configuration with two cores at up to 2GHz. So although the Z4 doesn’t quite use a flagship SoC like the Z3’s previous Snapdragon 835, it should represent a performance upgrade in user experience due to the newer IP. Gaming wise, we’re still not quite sure how the new Adreno 612 will compare to the Z3’s Adreno 540, but we’re not expecting large performance boosts, if at all.

The SoC’s 11nm LPP manufacturing node along with a large 3600mAh battery should provide the new Z4 with plenty of battery life, and represents a big capacity upgrade over the Z3’s 3000mAh battery even though Motorola was able to keep the dimensions largely in check.

In terms of dimensions, the phone is characterised by the 6.39” AMOLED screen. The new design has a modern full-screen panel with minimal bezels and uses a dew-drop notch for the front camera. The resolution remains FHD with an exact 2340 x 1080 to be precise, resulting in a 19:9 aspect ratio.

The elongated aspect ratio over last year’s 18:9 display explains the Z4’s larger screen dimensions: The actual width of the phone hasn’t gone up over the Z3, it actually has gone down as it’s now 1.5mm narrower, down to 75mm.

Where Motorola did compromise a bit is in the thickness, as it’s now 8% thicker to 7.35mm, most possibly due to the new larger battery capacity. Weight has also gone up from 158g to 165g, which however is still very light for a phone of its size, compared to the designs of some other vendors.
