We were impressed when the LG G5 rolled out with its “Friends Modules”, but Lenovo just upped the game with the new Moto Z family of smartphones. Today, Lenovo announced the Moto Z and Moto Z Force, which are next generation Android flagship smartphones. The Moto Z is the standard model, measures just 5.2mm thick and comes with a 5.5-inch QHD AMOLED display.
