Moto G4 Plus is the better variant of the two Moto G series devices launched last month. With a better camera, more RAM and a fingerprint scanner, Moto G4 Plus should be your choice over Moto G4 if you are looking for a good smartphone in this price segment. Moto G4 Plus runs the latest Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 and the user experience is quite similar to a Nexus smartphone. The only difference being Moto display and Moto Camera are added with few nifty features like double twist to open the camera, double chop to start flashlight, etc.

The user experience is quite minimal with minimal customization options available. but if you wish to enhance your user experience and want to customize your Moto G4 Plus according to your liking and requirements you would need a rooted device.
