It was rumoured that Motorola had started rolling out Android 7.0 Nougat update to the Moto G4 and Moto G4 Plus via OTA (over-the-air) but it turned out to be false. The Lenovo-owned company confirmed that it had not started seeding the firmware to its devices but would begin soon.
Motorola revealed in a blog post that it would release Android 7.0 Nougat update to Moto Z and Moto G (4th Gen) devices in the fourth quarter of this year. It didn't reveal the exact date but Q4 begins in October and ends in December, which means Motorola may release the new firmware to its eligible handsets in the next few weeks -- six months to be precise.
