Motorola unveils Moto Z4 as a 5G-upgradable smartphone
Still with Moto Mods
Motorola isn’t letting go of its precious Moto Mods just yet with the new Moto Z4. The new smartphone inherits the features of its predecessor with a couple of new tricks under its sleeve. Surprisingly, the Moto Z4 is not Motorola’s flagship-specced phone for 2019.
The Moto Z4 is the successor to the Moto Z3 Play, not to the Moto Z3. How so? The Moto Z4 doesn’t sport the best processor available, but rather a midrange chip — the Snapdragon 675 to be exact. It also packs 4GB of memory and 128GB of expandable storage.
The phone’s new notched OLED display measures 6.4 inches with a Full HD+ resolution and 19:9 aspect ratio. The tiny waterdrop notch houses a 25-megapixel camera for selfies and the whole panel is protected by Gorilla Glass 3. Also, there’s an in-display fingerprint reader for biometric security.

Like with most phones to come out lately, the Moto Z4 has a 48-megapixel pixel main camera with an aperture of f/1.7 and optical image stabilization. It utilizes a Quad Bayer color filter to capture incredibly detailed 12-megapixel shots. It features Night Mode and AI scene detection as well.
A 3600mAh battery cell will keep the Moto Z4 powered on for a whole day, plus it charges pretty quick using the bundled 15W TurboPower charger. Furthermore, there’s no room for bloatware on the Moto Z4 since it runs on a near-stock build of Android Pie with a few Moto apps.

The Moto Z4 does have a headphone jack, which should please Motorola fans. Also, it retains Moto Mods compatibility. It fully supports existing Moto Mods, which is great for those who already have a few. If you wish, you can upgrade the Moto Z4 with 5G connectivity using the US$ 200 5G Moto Mod.
Motorola’s new Moto Z4 will come in Flash Gray and Frost White colors for US$ 499. It’ll be available in the US starting June 6 and it comes with a free 360-degree camera Moto Mod in the box. Verizon will also offer the Moto Z4 starting June 13 bundled with the 5G Moto Mod.

Computex 2026
The new NVIDIA RTX Spark laptops are AI PCs on steroids
“Useful AI has arrived,” NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang proclaimed in his monumental keynote speech to kick off COMPUTEX 2026, essentially admitting to the state of AI prior to today. But don’t let the past mess with how you view the present. AI today, according to the graphics-turned-AI company, will now serve everyday users, rather than procuring abstract and intangible benefits. For us normal people, it all starts with the new RTX Spark.
Rarely does a new product claim to reinvent the entire industry. Confident in its own abilities, that’s just what the RTX Spark wants to do. But what is it exactly?
Think of it like Microsoft’s Copilot+ PCs but on AI-powered steroids. NVIDIA wants to bring the power of a supercomputer into the hands of regular consumers, just like how the personal computer (PC) brought gigantic computers to the comfort of everyone’s homes.
Co-engineered with Microsoft, RTX Spark will run autonomous AI agents the entire day. The agent is tied to you and your intent but will orchestrate all your devices under one roof.
Let’s get down to the nitty-gritty. The new series will leverage a Blackwell RTX GPU and a 20-core Grace CPU from MediaTek. It can also support up to 128GB of unified memory, delivering several of the most powerful (and most expensive) PCs available to consumers today. With the capabilities comparable to an RTX 5070, the series can supposedly play modern games with ease.
Inside, it will come with CUDA, the trove of information that powers AI technology today. Finally, despite how slim NVIDIA promises the series will be, the RTX Spark should come with a battery that lasts the entire day.
The first NVIDIA RTX Spark laptops will launch later this fall with six premium laptops for various brands. This, along with the 30 models launching soon after, will include Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, and MSI. No word yet on how much these will cost, though.
UGREEN is expanding its smart travel lineup with the launch of the new FineTrack Series, a collection of compact trackers designed to help users keep tabs on everyday essentials.
Leading the announcement are the FineTrack 2 and FineTrack Mini 2, both of which support Apple’s Find My network for easy location tracking through compatible Apple devices. The trackers are built for travelers and commuters who want an extra layer of security for items such as keys, bags, wallets, and passports.
The FineTrack 2 comes in a soccer-inspired design created to celebrate the upcoming 2026 World Cup, while the FineTrack Mini 2 adopts a slimmer tag-style form factor that fits more easily inside wallets and passport holders. Both devices feature glow-in-the-dark accents for improved visibility in low-light conditions.
UGREEN says the trackers offer global tracking capabilities through Apple’s Find My ecosystem, along with smart left-behind alerts that notify users before they accidentally leave important belongings behind. When an item is nearby, users can trigger an alarm reaching up to 110dB to help locate it faster.
