Or is that not available in Motorola's version of Android?


Yes, it's there. The widget is just a couple less finger-strokes. Motorola pretty much uses pure Android with zero bloatware.

Another screenshot from this morning. This time, I didn't use my phone at all, it was left on, screen off, WiFi on, cell on (but really on standby due to the WiFi), BT off. Estimated 8 days left.

After uninstalling ES, after 2 days of light use on my 5X, I am still at almost 50% battery remaining. All this time I kept blaming Google for screwing up battery life in Android 7, but it may have just been ES's fault. ES never showed up on the list of apps/tasks consuming the battery though, but it was driving up my "Android System" and "Android OS" tasks.

I've been pretty happy with Xplore over the last couple of days. So much less bloat. Sad really because ES was the go to explorer for so long, I had been using ES since Android 2.3

Not sure if this is any help. My work phone is a Droid Force, battery life so long its retarded but unrelated to you.
My personal phone I keep bluetooth off. I also removed chrome for a different reason. I use Opera and Dolphin. Love Dolphin.

Anyway, you can google Moto G4 battery life issues. I also came across this ... Lenovo Tech Support 4g battery life, click here
