Motorola has confirmed the roll out of Android 7.1.1 Nougat for Moto Z Play smartphone. The news has been confirmed by customer support executive of Motorola over chat.
In response to Yash Goyal’s query regarding the availability of Android 7.1.1 for Moto Z and Moto Z Play handsets, the official Motorola customer service agent T Gowthami disclosed that the device will get the update but declined to reveal the exact date. Goyal took to XDA developers forum and posted a thread regarding the chat conversation.
You can infer that Moto Z Play will soon receive an update to Android 7.1.1 Nougat. However, we don’t have any exact information about the estimated date of the availability.
On the specifications front, the Motorola Moto Z Play features a 5.5-icnh Super AMOLED FHD Corning Gorilla Glass 3 display, Snapdragon 625 processor, Adreno 506 graphics, 3GB RAM, 32GB expandable internal storage coupled with a 3510mAh fast charging battery.
While the rear camera is equipped with a 16MP sensor, the front-facing snapper features a 5MP sensor. The phone is loaded with Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, which is upgradeable to Android 7.0 Nougat. If the rumors are to be believed, you can expect a direct bump to 7.1.1 instead of 7.0 version. The phone is also capable of resisting dust and water.
That said, the Moto Z Play is currently available at CNY 2999 for the 64GB internal storage variant, which gives a discount of CNY 300.
