Moto G4 Plus is a overall a great deal , but if you value good value, you could find an even better deal out there. So here are five reasons not to buy a Moto G4 Plus .

1. Overpriced -

The Motorola Moto G4 Plus comes in two variants - 16GB / 2GB at 13,499/- and 32GB / 3GB at 14,999/- . The Smartphone is a bit overpriced as compared to ZUK Z1 which comes in 13,499/- and Redmi Note 3 which comes in 9,999 ( 16GB/2GB ) and 11,999 ( 32GB/3GB ) .

2. No water resistance -

The Motorola Moto G4 Plus has an advanced nano-coating technology that creates a water repellent barrier to help protect against moderate exposure to water such as accidental spills, splashes or light rain. It Not designed to be submersed in water, or exposed to pressurized water, or other liquids like the Moto G3 .

3. Too big -

5.2 is the most preferred size of a Smartphone . The Moto G4 Plus comes with a 5.5 inch FHD Display , that seems to be too big . Big Smartphone's have a great chances to slip from hand and  even get shattered after a drop . 

After-all many People prefer to use 5 inch and 5.2 inch Smartphones .

4. No Notification LED -

There is no way to find out if you’ve missed any incoming calls or message while you had to ignore your phone? Of course, you can enable Moto Display and get pop-up on your screen when you get any notification . But Still Notification LED Plays an important role in bringing your attention towards the Smartphone , if you gets any notification .

5. Heating issue -

According to a Gaming Review with Temp Check of Moto G4 Plus by Geekyranjit , The Temperature of the device goes to 45° in 15 minutes of Gaming .

Though Geekyranjit hadn't noticed any lags while playing Games , but the screen becomes too hot under 15 minutes of Gaming .

YU forced us not to buy their Smartphones again !

 By Vaibhav Jain on May 16, 2016       

Micromax's sub-brand Yu Televentures is all set to launch "YU Yunicorn" on 19th May and I am pretty much sure , many of us will not buy YU smartphones again !



YU Yureka was a great hit and after that Smartphone only Micromax's YU became popular in India . The first impression of the Smartphone was amazing but we were not fully aware of the Smartphone at that time ! 

Though One cannot judge a Smartphone and a company in a single day or two ! But , Now YU has forced many of us not to buy their Smartphones .



Disclaimer :- This post is entirely based upon most of the users opinion and does not spread negativity of any company or organization. The post is not meant to spread violent or hatred speech either .

1. One of the worst after sales service -

Buying a smartphone is more than just about picking up a phone you liked and making a purchase. A phone may look good on paper, but there's more to a phone than just the paper specs. After-sales is something equally important, if not more.

And Yes ! YU has one of the worst after sales service . I own a Page of Micromax Yureka which was made to help Yureka users , but I was wrong ! When the Company can't support their customers then Who Am I ?

Below are some (Though There are many ) "Reviews on YU" -

And why we need After sales service ? Because YU Products are made of cheap quality ! 

2. No Android Updates -

I think Google is all set to reveal Android N on 18th May ? Isn't it ? And YU users are still waiting for Marshmallow on their Smartphones ? 

The company has launched only few devices and they can't even handle software updates for these devices even !

Though I understand Marshmallow is a big update , But can't you even provide a patch for the bugs that were present in Android 5.1.1 ?

I never Bought a YU Smartphone , but this article is for all the fans of my page Who forced me to write this Article !
