Fingerprint scanner

Previous rumors and leaked images suggested that the new Moto G will have a fingerprint scanner placed in its new square shaped home key. However, it is a bit surprising to see that the new Moto G4 renders revealed by @evleaks show no front fingerprint sensor. Now, whether both the phones will have fingerprint scanner or just the Plus variant will get it, we will get to know when the company announces its new phones tomorrow.

Marshmallow candy

Considering that most Moto phones are launched with the latest Android OS version in almost raw version, it is highly likely that the Moto G4 will be shipped with the Android Marshmallow running on it, with support for future updates.

To be available on Amazon

Motorola has already revealed that its upcoming Moto G4 will be available exclusively on the online retailer Amazon India. Now, we wait for its official announcement to know if it will also retail via other online stores after a few months or weeks of its launch.
