Thankfully, Motorola has added the December 2017 security patches in this update. After the update, you can see all the Android Oreo features such as Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode, revamped Settings app and quick settings menu, smart text, auto-fill feature, and notification dots.

Here’s the official changelog of the update from Motorola

  • Android 8.0 Oreo: Many enhancements including new multitasking features, security capabilities, improved notifications and performance.
  • Android security: Includes the updates of Android security patches until December 1st, 2017.
  • Stability improvements: Includes changes that fix bugs and improve the stability of your phone.

It’s good to see Motorola updating the latest product to the latest Android version at such a quick time. However, it’s understandable that there will be only a few changes to the software of the regular Moto X4 and Android One Moto X4, which is the reason why Motorola pushed the update this faster. Either way, a huge shout out to Motorola for releasing the update before the end of 2017, much ahead of other smartphone brands.
