Motorola Moto Z - the modular smartphone that it is not

Motorola Moto Z smartphone

The Motorola Moto Z smartphone is a modular phone, which it is not. Basically, it's a stylish smartphone with impressive hardware. After a closer look, the most striking thing is the fact that you will look in vain for a 3.5 mm headphone jack on it. But don't worry, the USB Type-C connector takes care of the headphone interface. But more than that, the Motorola Moto Z impresses with the fact that it is actually a modular phone. Let's explain. It can live in symbiosis with Moto Mods accessories, which upgrade it in many ways.

Motorola Moto Z it is modular smartphone, which it is not. Unlike Google, which is broke the phone to its prefactors, to make a modular phone, Motorola, which falls under New only, the modular phone was tackled from the other end. The Motorola Moto Z thus remains fundamentally a "one-piece" phone and not something that looks like a Lego product.


This is possible with the help of supplements Moto Mods, which is based on magnets (the phone case is from aluminum, which is otherwise used in the aviation industry, and stainless steel) cling to the back of the phone like a leech and instantly upgrade it, not deplete it like an aquatic parasite does with its host.

It is either an accessory in the form of a speaker JBL SoundBoost, which amplifies the phone's "voice" for listening to music louder, or as an accessory Moto Insta-Share Projector, which has a built-in projector with the ability to display an image with a 70-inch diagonal, either an add-on Power Pack, which gives the phone an additional 22 hours of oxygen (read: autonomy), etc. It should be emphasized that these are not foreign objects, but fashion accessories. And what are we going to upgrade anyway?
