The G4 ay is splash-proof has replaceable shells, but it’s still very much a budget smartphone. y this matters: This is the first major launch from Motorola after the company was acquired by novo. And to be honest, it feels a little confusing. On the one h Motorola is playing to its strongest markets, is trying to diversify the lineup for various price points. But successful phones in the U.S. tend to come from focused flagship lines that don’t go through major overhauls into new models. us by the time it reaches American shores we’ll already be in Nexus rumorville, so it’s hard to see how appealing these might be.
