Shatterproof display, Fantastic battery life, Fresh and unique design
No headphone jack, Thicker and heavier than Moto Z, ShatterShield display is easily scratched

Moto Mods are the coolest and they actually add value to the device, 13-megapixel camera is a better low-light performer than its predecessor
A bit slippery to hold without its snap-on back cover, The lack of a headphone jack could get annoying over time
The Moto Z is the best flagship to come out of Motorola's camp and you'll love the ability to customize it to your liking with additional Moto Mods...

Unskinned Android! A lot has changed at Motorola, but not its choice of software, Always-on voice command support, A very well-made metal body that feels like a premium device, Speedy storage, A MicroSD slot with adoptable storage, The ShatterShield displ

About time Moto has a fingerprint sensor, Moto Mods implementation is excellent, Customizable look and feel, Two options for price, with similar features
Headphone adapter is one more thing to lose, Fingerprint button scheme takes a little getting used to, 13MP camera isn't great in low light, Force model starts to get fairly thick
Modular system and accessories are fantastic, 2016best performance, excellent camera, sturdy build, runs stock Android, ShatterShield display on the Moto Z Force holds up against some nasty drops
Awkward fingerprint scanner placement, Moto Z battery is a bit small, lots of Verizon bloatware, no 3.5 mm audio port, no second SIM slot, no Micro SD card slot
All too often when a premium smartphone contender tries to experiment, the costs end up outweighing the benefits. That didn't happen with the Moto Z — because of how brilliantly designed the Moto Mods are, the downsides are fairly minor. They've made it...
Abstract: Motorola decided to change things up a bit this year. So instead of the standard Moto G and Moto X launch line, they made sure to add a new brand to their lineup. Motorola has made waves w/ the budget G and gotten a lot better w/ the Moto X. This time aro...
