Google kicks off Android One in the U.S. with the Project Fi-equipped Moto X4
from PC world 20 September indexed on 21 September 2017 4:01Google is finally bringing its Android One program to the U.S., but not in the way you think. Instead of a super-low-priced phone with bare-minimum specs, the first U.S. Android One phone is actually the Moto X4. And it's a Project Fi exclusive. The Android One Moto X4 is essentially the same phone as the one you get direct from Motorola, with a 5.2-inch 1080p display, Snapdragon 630 processor, 3,000mAh battery, dual rear cameras (12MP and 8MP), and fast charging.
