One of the highlights of the smartphone, as previously rumoured, is inclusion of leather in design – something Motorola did with its Moto X and Moto 360. Motorola spared no time to point this out and posted on Twitter – “Letting you customise with genuine Horween leather since 2014. LG was quick to respond as it stated : "Thanks for choosing to watch [our event]." Hah.
The G4’s back covers come in metallic gray, ceramic white, gold, and genuine leather.
