Motorola announced a few months ago that it was planning to roll out the latest version of Google's mobile operating system, Android 8.0 Oreo, to several of its handsets. Making good on that promise, some Moto Z2 Force owners on T-Mobile have received the over-the-air update, joining their Moto Z2 Force brethren on Verizon, who recently began receiving the tasty upgrade. A user on the XDA Developers forum uploaded a handful of screenshots showing the update. It is labeled as build number OCX27 and clocks in at nearly a 1GB (937.5MB, to be precise), so keep that in mind if you are on a data restriction of any sort. The Oreo update also comes bundled with all of the Android security fixes for the...

Last year’s release of the Moto Z family of phones introduced the world to Mods – magnetic accessory attachments that added features to the phones, like higher-quality speakers, a portable projector, or optical zoom camera. However, the US release of the Moto Z was limited to Verizon and unlocked customers only. This year Motorola is back with the new Z2 Force, packing support for the same Mods, but launching on AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon. While the latest Moto Z2 Force has all the makings of a flagship smartphone with its Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, Super AMOLED display, and dual rear camera setup, it’s up against some fierce competition from the likes of Samsung, LG, HTC,...

Remember the infamous “jelly scrolling” effect that plagued the recently introduced OnePlus 5? It looks as though another Android flagship has also been bitten by the “bug”, much to the dismay of new owners. According to a new report, the Motorola Moto Z2 Force features an inverted display, which leads to jelly scrolling. So, what is jelly scrolling? Well, we’re glad that you asked. Jelly scrolling is an effect that causes on-screen text or images to appear distorted when navigating through the UI. This distortion, for example, can take the form of text appears to get squished or stretched apart as you scroll up and down a webpage. The issue was first brought up via XDA Developers, and...

Here it is, folks. After months of leaks and teases, Motorola has officially pulled the wraps off its flagship Moto Z2 Force. Given how much of the device has already leaked, there’s not much left for Motorola to announce that we didn’t already know. But in case you’ve missed all of our previous articles on the Moto Z2 Force, here’s the rundown. The smartphone features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor with 4GB of RAM, 64GB of internal storage and a 5.5-inch QHD AMOLED display that’s nearly indestructible thanks to its ShatterShield design. Other features include dual 12MP f/2.0 rear cameras (one shoots in color, while the other is monochrome), and the smartphone runs Android 7.1.1. For those...

We don’t have much longer to wait before the Moto Z2 Force makes its official debut. In fact, the launch is just a couple days away, as Lenovo/Motorola will show off the Moto Z2 Force, Moto X4 and Moto G5S at its #hellomotoworld event. But since nothing in the tech space can remain a secret for too long these days, we have two final pieces to the Moto Z2 Force puzzle to reveal today. First of all, three images of the smartphone in the real world have popped up. All of the shots that we’ve seen to date have been renders of the device, but these new real-life images give us a better look at the device being held. We also get a clear look at the dual 12MP cameras on the rear of the device,...

The cat is out of the bag when it comes to Motorola’s upcoming Moto Z2 Force flagship. Although the smartphone has been leaked previously over the past few months, this latest info dump gives us a clear look at the smartphone front all angles, along with some pretty disappointing news that follows a recent trend with Motorola smartphones. First and foremost, we have confirmation that the Moto Z2 Force will retain its 5.5-inch QHD display which employs ShatterShield technology. As expected, the smartphone will ditch the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor in favor of the new top-of-the-line Snapdragon 835 which is in use on the Samsung Galaxy S8 and OnePlus 5. On the camera front, the single 21MP...

We know that Motorola has a Moto Z2 Force flagship in the works, and it was widely expected that the smartphone would make its debut at the July 25th #hellomotoworld event. However, Motorola all but confirmed those suspicions with an official invite that was sent out for the event. The invite shows two smartphones with cracked screens, surround by broken glass. The tagline “get ready to shatter your expectations” more than confirms that this is reference to the Moto Z2 Force. If you recall, the original Moto Z Force came with ShatterShield technology for the simply. ShatterShield is comprised of the following five design features: Rigid aluminum core which provides structural rigidity and robustnessFlexible...

Motorola is ready to unleash the second generation of its flagship Moto Z family, and luckily, we’re getting a glimpse at what the device has in store. Leaked renders give us a good look at the smartphone from both the front and the back, and for obvious reasons, it doesn’t stray too far from the original winning formula. The biggest difference compared to its predecessor is the inclusion of dual cameras on the back instead of a single sensor. In addition, the “Force” designation means that the smartphone features Motorola’s “ShatterShield” technology, which the company says makes the display virtually indestructible and immune from shatters or cracks. Speaking of the display, the Moto Z2 Force...
