When PhoneBuff conducts a Drop test between Moto Z Force and S7 Active, both the smartphones actually does very well in all 3 rounds and eventually considered as Equal and qualifies for a Bonus Round. In Bonus Round S7 Active survives 50 Front facing Drop test ( Of course it will survive, being a Strong cased smartphone, all the damage was taken by the Inbuilt Case and Screen remains untouched ), While Moto Z Force Turns off After 6 Drops.

According to PhoneBuff, Galaxy S7 Active remains the worlds strongest Smartphone. But the thing is Motorola Moto Z Force is an actual survivor and a Winner. 

Note:- Just Put a Spigen case on any Smartphone and It will even beat the S7 Active!

Motorola Moto G4 and Moto Z will not Get Monthly Security Updates

 By Vaibhav Jain on July 27, 2016       

Last week, we got a news that Motorola Moto Z will be getting Monthly Security patches, but it looks like that Motorola will not be issuing monthly updates.



Though Motorola will include the monthly security patches in OS upgrades, or in scheduled maintenance releases which will reach the devices in a month or two.

According to ArsTechnica, Here's the full statement by Motorola-

Motorola understands that keeping phones up to date with Android security patches is important to our customers. We strive to push security patches as quickly as possible. However, because of the amount of testing and approvals that are necessary to deploy them, it’s difficult to do this on a monthly basis for all our devices. It is often most efficient for us to bundle security updates in a scheduled Maintenance Release (MR) or OS upgrade. As we previously stated, Moto Z Droid Edition will receive Android Security Bulletins. Moto G4 will also receive them.
