Moto Z Play: 4 Months Later

 By Vaibhav Jain on February 19, 2017       

Four months ago, Motorola launched the first mid-ranged Semi-modular Moto Z Play, and changed the mobile industry as we knew it.

Let's take a look at last few months, and my experience with the Moto Z Play.

Design:

The Moto Z Play is one of the most beautiful and stylish Smartphones, with a flat glass back and aluminum frame at 7mm thick, the device feels premium. But, one should always use the Style Shell (Which comes free inside the box), because the glass back is prone to scratches. I have already got two Fine scratches on my device's back, so better use the Style Shell if you want to protect you device.

Android Nougat:

Few weeks ago, Motorola started rolling out Android 7.0 Nougat for the Moto Z Play and it solved almost every bug and lags which my Z Play was facing when running Android Marshmallow. 

Before Nougat update, I thought it was time to switch to another device because the Moto Z Play was running too slow and was also facing force stops. Thanks to Google and Lenovo-Motorola, the Nougat update solved almost every bug present and now my device is running like fluid.

Camera:

The Moto Z Play's rear camera performance is not that great as compared with other flagship smartphones, but it handles outdoor shots pretty well as long as you're not viewing the results too closely. The Video comes little bit shaky when in hands because of lack of OIS. Yes, you can also shoot 4K videos with the Moto Z Play. The Camera lens is prone to scratches so better use a protector or Camera ring.

The front facing selfie shooter performs well in daylight and is supported nicely by the front-facing LED flash.

Performance:

Moto Z Play comes out with 3GB RAM paired with 32GB Storage and MicroSD card support. Under the hood there's a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor. The device handles High-Graphics games smoothly. Moto Z Play has acceptable performance in this price. There were few lags when running Android Marshmallow, but they were gone after Nougat update.

Moto Z Play's battery is just insane, the 3510mAh battery can go for a full day, with a heavy use. The battery takes Approx 1 hour 15 minutes to get fully charged with Turbo charger. Nougat doesn't affect the battery performance at all!

Moto Z Play still worth in 2017?

If you want a stylish Android Smartphone with Insane battery and Moto Mods support, the Moto Z Play is 100% still worth buying.

 By Unknown on February 18, 2017       

Google's video platform, YouTube is vying to make some decent changes this year. It is now reportedly said that YouTube is planning to ditch the 30 seconds unstoppable ads by the end of this year. 

That said, you no longer have to go through the 30 seconds. However, Google will run the 10 and 20 seconds ads without providing any skip option, the report cites. 

A spokesperson from Google quoted as follows: "We’ve decided to ... focus instead on formats that work well for both users and advertisers,".

Moto G5 Plus Will Apparently Cost Less than the Moto G4 Plus, thanks to Lenovo-Ownership

 By Unknown on February 14, 2017       

Lenovo-owned Motorola is gearing up to launch their next generation mid-range smartphone, the Moto G5 at the MWC 2017. Rumors are already soaring online regarding the Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus.

The leaked pricing in Europe is 209 Euro for the Moto G5 Plus with 3GB of RAM and Snapdragon 625 SoC (rumored). That's pretty much cheaper than the Moto G4 Plus shipping for 240 Euro in the same country.

Android Pattern Lock System Can be Hacked Within Five Attempts: Report

 By Unknown on February 13, 2017       

Pattern locking system is the most secure way of protecting your Android smartphone from threats. In new research from Lancaster University, it is said that the Android Pattern locking can be hacked within five attempts. Sounds Interesting, right? Let' see how this actually works. 

As you might be aware of the fact that, to unlock your smartphone, you need to draw your pattern to get the device unlocked and use it. If you failed to unlock the phone within five attempts, then the phone will be locked for 30 seconds. 

That said, a person from the university mentioned above has developed a new algorithm, which keeps track of a person's unsuccessful attempts at the pattern lock and suggests a pattern using advanced computer vision algorithm software. 

Also, this new algorithm even works without a video footage by just recording the fingerprints of the customer. However, this feature works accurately when the algorithm is exploited using video recording. 

This proves that the Android locking security system is still vulnerable to attacks like this.
