Motorola's Moto G smartphones have become synonymous with value and reliability. They're not the flashiest devices, and their cameras haven't always been great, but they punch above their weight and their price tag. The Moto G4 Plus - the first Motorola s...

The Moto G4 Plus is probably the best value phone in the mid-range price space. For $399, you get quite a lot of phone, notably a big screen and a great camera. It's is probably a little more power-hungry than we'd have liked, but it should see the majori...

When you think "Plus" in the phone world you tend to think extra large handset. It's all Apple's fault. But that's not precisely the case with the Moto G4 Plus: sure, it's pretty large with its 5.5-inch screen, but it's the same size as its Moto G4 brothe...

Moto G phones are not exciting. They're not sexy and they're not powerhouses. But they get the job done, and do it for a reasonable price.Since the line's launch in 2013, that has always been the appeal of the Moto G line. With the Moto G4 Plus, however...
