[Update: For real this time] Motorola Moto Z3 Play Android Pie update is going live in the US
Motorola is rolling out the Android Pie update for the Moto Z3 Play in the US. Read on to know the complete list of enhancements in this update!
The Motorola Moto Z3 Play was launched in June 2018, sporting a 6", 2160 x 1080, 18:9 AMOLED display and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 SoC. What made the Moto Z3 Play special was that Motorola remained committed to the Moto Mods ecosystem, allowing users to enhance the useability of their device if they did not mind spending some more money. However, the choice of SoC at the prices that Motorola wanted really did not find much favor with consumers.

Keyboard Mod for the Motorola Moto Z series has been canceled
The Keyboard Mod for the Motorola Moto Z series of smartphones has been canceled. Instead, the company is working on a new phone with a sliding keyboard.
Although Project Ara never saw the light of day, Motorola's Moto Mod initiative has actually resulted in quite a few successful products. Motorola's promise of three generations of support for Moto Mods means that even this year's Moto Z3 Play and Verizon Moto Z3 support Moto Mods. We've seen Motorola announce a Gamepad Mod, Wireless Charging Mod, a Smart Speaker mod with Amazon Alexa support, and more. Unfortunately, one mod that was announced at CES this year won't be released: The Livermorium Slider Keyboard Mod. The keyboard mod would have attached to any Moto Mod-compatible phone (any Moto Z device), equipping it with a dedicated sliding keyboard. The product's Indiegogo page was updated today announcing the cancellation of the product.
