Moto X4, the premium mid-range smartphone with a dual-camera setup will be launched in India on October 3. After teasing the device for the past few days, the company has confirmed the official launch date via its Twitter account. Moto has also started sending out media invites for the X4 launch event.
Moto X4 was first introduced at IFA 2017 in Berlin earlier this month. The handset sports a familiar design with a unibody metal casing and Corning Gorilla Glass back for aesthetics. It features a 5.2-inch Full HD IPS LCD display and is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 630 platform. The handset comes with 3GB and 32GB storage further expandable up to 256GB via SD card slot.
The highlight of the device is the dual rear camera with one wide-angle lens similar to the one found on LG G6 and V30. The smartphone sports a combination of a 12MP primary lens with phase detection autofocus, f/2.0 aperture and an 8MP secondary wide-angle lens with f/2.2 aperture. It also offers dual-LED flash and support for bokeh mode and 4K video recording at 30fps. The front camera department is taken care of by a 16MP selfie shooter with f/2.0 aperture and a dedicated LED flash.
It includes connectivity options like Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, NFC but misses out on 3.5mm audio jack. The smartphone features a front-mounted fingerprint sensor and is backed by a 3000mAh battery with fast charging support. The Moto X4 runs Android 7.1 Nougat, but a recent leak suggested that the company is working on an Android One variant.
If Motorola's teaser is anything to go by, the company might launch the Android One variant in India. The smartphone is priced at €399 (approximately Rs 30,500) in Europe and should be available in blue and black colour variants.
