do you guys think the camera quality will be improved in a future software update ? kitkat perhaps ? they did it with the nexus 5
I think they will definitely fix it by the January update but I wouldn't expect more than what they did for the Moto X.
I'm guessing unlikely. Unlike the Moto G, those other phones got fixes because they were premium devices and have capable hardware, which caused turmoil among their user base pre-fix.
Mostly no one expects a budget phone such as the Moto G to do better than it already does.
Unlikely...it's just the way it is

Meanwhile you can try alternative camera apps like VSCO or Focal (CynogenMod Camera App) - with a bit of patience I can produce good not oof pictures.

Is it really that bad? How's the shutter speed?

The shutter speed is good, but the quality of the photos is not very good in dim lighting. Sometimes it is necessary to take more than one shot to get a satisfactory result.
I think it's just a poor camera to be honest, remember how little this thing costs

Yep this is what I suspect.
I don't think it'll be software especially after the Moto X.

Maybe someone else can shine some light for the curious?
Yep, the same here. Can't wait for my order to arrive...
Bought the Moto G for £99 here in the UK and was a choice between the Sony Xperia L for a similar discounted price and the camera on the Moto G is worse than my HTC Desire from several years ago! I'm still within the 28 returns period so could possibly buy the Sony to test at home too but even with the new camera update, pictures have so much noise I have actually checked the glass covering the lens several times for any plastic etc they might have left on it for packaging. Apart from the camera the Moto G feels like a £300+ phone but I think the Sony Xperia L which has 8MP Camera as well as MicroSD slot etc might be the better phone for the same money.

Wow dude what the heck, it hasn't even been released yet!
Is it the same size as the Galaxy Note 4?
EDIT: I see the screen size is 5.3 inches http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g4-6901.php
EDIT: Scratch that first question, how does the software feel & is the camera any better?
How large is the screen and how large is the battery?

are u sure thats a stylus, because some lg g3 versions had the same slot on top, i think thats a tv antenna for some asian markets (look picture)
As always with the LG Gs the screen looks very good.
It's so funny. Websites all over are using these pics to confirm a leaked LG G4, whereas this appears to be the G4s, korean version.
Check the MSM8936 aka Snapdragon 610: this is NOT the G4, not even a G4 Note.
Please, check the facts a little.....It's borderline annoying.

Yeah I'm sure, it doesn't have any special function right now. Maybe LG plans on changing that later. The thing is "websites" all over night be using x or y image to get clicks for ads, I'm just showing you guys what's next I work at a major carrier and get to see these devices in development stages.

Lol, now thats funny. I'm pretty far from Korea, more like the USA. I can confirm there is another tiny LG phone in the works that looks like a LG G series phone, but has a really small screen. Maybe you're thinking of that one.

Yea i would also like to see it, i would like to know if it is similar to the one found in Galaxy Note, if it's not similar, then it is pointless to have one.
Thanks for the pictures tho, do you have more of them, maybe bigger ones(more detailed).:fingers-crossed:

Hi there! Moto has just unveiled their Moto G4, G4 Plus and G4 Play. I'm really excited, and I don't want to wait for user reviews
So I guess I'll just trust Moto with their reputation, and order one today itself if I can :victory:
What do you guys think of the new model(s)? Do you think there will be much development going on? I'm prepared to wait for the fun to begin, but I just wanted your thoughts on the matter...
I know it is too early, and probably a dumb question but there are many variants (G4 Plus has 16GB, 32GB and 64GB variants)... Could that possibly hamper development scope? Also, I've mostly seen that such variants of mainstream models ('plus', 'play', etc) do not have as many options, as far as kernels and ROMs are concerned.
m also in same dilemaa..waiting for some recognized developers words on it @Vatsal is one of them.
me3
:fingers-crossed: Ordered today, Arriving tomorrow.
It won't be hard to port all development work to the plus and play, you just need someone who knows what they're doing. I wouldn't be worried.

I wouldn't worry, as with the previous Moto G's, I expect this one to get some developers on board that know what they're doing. I'll try to help, but can't help with the first steps (twrp, root) as I'm way to inexperienced. (Been battling with the build environment for the Tab S2 for moths, would prefer to work on the code itself )
I'm still in doubt between the G4 and the plus, the latter being released here around the 9th. (the G4 is due 1st of june)

Did you sell it on Swappa? Just curious, I just got back a replacement from Moto Care and I am thinking of doing the same.
I guess it might as well be considered official that XT1575 will never see Nougat, either.

Guys, I'm considering buying this phone after almost 2 years with Mot X 2014. My question is "how xda friendly is Moto X 2015?" Unlocking bootloader and flashing ROMs on Moto X 2014 was piece of a cake.
I'm on custom Android 7 based ROM now, performance is great and the only issue for me is storage. 16 Gb isn't sufficient.
Manually flashing custom Oreo ROM eventually on Moto X 2015 would be something I expect to do later next year... if I decide to buy it.
Muito Xt1575 not arrieved the 7.0 yet, the 8 only in dreams.
Android 8 custom roms is real future for moto pure ?
LoL i might buy new OnePlus 5 (soecial edition) which will be officially announced by next week
hope to see more Banger features in it

Nougat is still a little buggy for this device. Have no idea if it ever gets unofficial Oreo. Also, it's just a little old. Don't get me wrong, I'm using this phone, but if you want to buy another device, choose different model... from different company.

Unlocking the bootloader and flashing AICP nougat 7.1.2 was a piece of cake on my MXP, it supports unlocking the bootloader out of the box.

Honestly... Don't bother with a 2 year old device. If you like Moto, go Moto G5 Plus or G5S Plus, 3-4 times the battery life, equal performance, support for probably the next 18 months or so, etc. Or if your budget allows, go with something better, there are lots of options.
I would not buy another Pure, even if I could get a new one for under $100.

Well there's the Lenovo P2. LOL But it's hard to find phones with AMOLED screens at that price point. I was gonna say just go with the Mi A1 (LCD) when it comes down in price later this year because it's the best stock Android bargain you'll find. Why do you want OLED so bad anyway? The Moto X Style isn't OLED, but it's screen and colours are highly saturated, even for me. I think this is something most IPS panels can accomplish with the right settings. I have to say, though, the Moto's screen is really good for an IPS panel.

Great!!! Where is the apk? No updates available in my store...

Three new categories are coming to the Wallpapers app: Geometric shapes, Keep Looking, and Underwater. These are exclusive to the Pixel phones, however. If you have any other phone (I tested it on my HTC U11 and Nexus 6P), you only get access to the Geometric shapes category. Also exclusive to Pixel phones is that new rainy city wallpaper that was first shown off on the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL.
