The USA and Canada have Facebook Messenger as its most used chat app, while some Eastern Europe and African countries use Viber. Line and Telegram have little popularity while WeChat is the #1 chat service in China.

As you can see, Facebook, which bought WhatsApp some time ago, dominates the world of smartphone messaging with its two applications. Overall, WhatsApp is the #1 service in 109 countries.

HelloMotoHK also posted some of the names of this line of accesories, which include the following:

Some days ago, the name moto Z was trademarked by Motorola Trademark Holdings, LLC., the company that owns the Motorola brand, registers new trademarks and licenses the brand to other companies. All in all, it seems the moto Z coming on June 9th will be a modular phone "that will transform mobile, on a snap" as Lenovo's Tech World advertisement said.

At The time of Moto G4 Plus launch , Motorola said that the Moto G4 Plus will be exclusive to Amazon only .

"We look at our product portfolio and decide what route-to-market or go-to-market strategy should be deployed for, so that the product reaches successfully to the end consumers."
"Evaluation of strategy and evaluation of route-to-market dictate what partners do we go with. And Amazon is an amazing partner in India,"  
"It's been really growing fast and they are in sync with our expectations and strategies of how we want to reach the consumers. And that's why it's the right partner for us to go for the Moto G4,"

Motorola leaks Android O

 By Felipe Berhau on May 22, 2016       

You read that right! In a recent promotional image for the new Motorola Moto G4 phones Motorola states it will get updated to Android N and O!

Two days ago Google introduced Android N at Google I/O with some tweaks and new features, but now Motorola just leaked the name of the next Android version: N. Will Google stop releasing system versions named after desserts? We can't know that for sure yet. What will O improve over N? It's too far away to know.

One thing is clear, though, the new Moto G4 will get the next two versions of Android, and that's something really cool. When will it get N or O? That's a very good question that we are not able to answer right now, but let's hope it gets N as fast as possible.

Google demos Project Ara at Google I/O

 By Felipe Berhau on May 21, 2016       

Ever since 2013, Project Ara has been delayed once a year. Today, it's the same story...

We are not really sure if Project Ara will see the light or will be cancelled, but once again we are promised it "will come next year". Google showed some innovative features and uploaded a demo video on its YouTube page.

As you can see, the modules will be swappable instantly and you will be able to customize the phone depending on what you like. Google says it will be available next year, but some vendors have announced their modular solutions, like the LG G5 and some upcoming Motorola devices that are expected to be modular phones.

Google's approach is completely different here, allowing for more customization and the ability to change some key features of the phone like the speakers and its camera. Are you excited for Ara? We are certainly not that excited anymore since it gets delayed each year. Will it ever be released? Is it too ahead of its times?
