Motorola Moto G2 specs leak ahead of official announcement

Motorola launched the Moto G smartphone and created a buzz globally. The device sold for a very attractive price and came down with every possible feature that was possible for that price and size. Moto G broke multiple records of sale in India and we already know that the company is working on Moto G2 smartphone. Although there is nothing hardcore known about the device but like its predecessor the G2 smartphone is likely to continue the legacy of low price and high end features.

The Motorola Moto G was launched in March in India. It was sold with an exclusive Flipkart partnership. Flipkart sold more than 1 lakh Moto G in India in a few months, so much so that every time new stock came in, the company would soon go out of stock. The phone continues to sell in India successfully and with a recent price cut of Rs 2,000 Moto G became even more attractive.

Now that companies are offering much better specs and features than Moto G for a price equal to it we expect Motorola to launch the G2 soon in India. A new leak about the Moto G2 has appeared on the internet which suggests that it will have a 720P display with 5-inch measurement. Other specs like 1.2Ghz Quad-Core Snapdragon 400, 1GB RAM, 8-MP rear and 2-MP front facing cameras have also been revealed.

Motorola Moto G2 leaked: Specs and Price in India

Motorola created a lot of buzz with its low price Moto G last year. The company is now prepping for the launch of the successor of the Moto G smartphone. The device is allegedly known as Moto G2, though the official and final name of the device is yet not revealed everyone is using the Moto G2 name to refer this device. The Moto G2 comes with features and specs identical to the Moto G and has minor upgrades over the older Moto G smartphone.

The device leaked yesterday for the first time revealing a Moto E like design philosophy and the Moto branding on the top left corner. The placement of logo might as well get some praise from buyers but we find the device a little weird. The top of the display looks more cluttered in the new design as a lot of space is occupied with the metal covering for the in-call speaker and moto logo on the left of it. The front facing camera is placed on the right side with a black out graphics hiding something under it. The hidden part may be a new sensor or a front facing flash, you never know.

We take a look at this device and show the upgrades it has got over its predecessor.

Specs

Nothing much changed in this area except for the upgraded 8-MP rear facing camera, the design is little different from the older Moto G as it features the new placement of loud speaker and a steel coating over it, may be for protection or something. It has a Quad-Core processor and 1GB RAM along with a 720p display (size is still a mystery), we expect the display size to be of 5-inches. The battery on the device is likely to be non user removable and the interchangeable back panels may on the desk for this device too.

Price

Motorola launched the Moto G in India with a price of Rs 12,999 and 13,999 for 8GB and 16GB memory respectively. The older Moto G did not have a micro SD slot and that flaw may be taken care on this device. The expected price of this device is a difficult thing to guess as recently Xiaomi entered the Indian market with Mi3 for a dirt cheap price and it competes with Moto G directly. The Mi3 is a high end flagship phone from Xiaomi and beats every aspect of Moto G smartphone. SO may be to stay with market’s pace the company may price this smartphone around 11K. However this is just a guess based on market analysis and the final price may turn out somewhere between 11K and 15K.

Motorola Moto G2 could be coming soon

Motorola has already manufactured the successor of the Moto G smartphone. Moto G proved out to be the all-time best seller Android phone, with this device the company also started a price war in India which in deed helped bring down prices of most smartphones. Now the company is prepping for the launch of the Moto G2 smartphone, which will follow the footsteps of its predecessor by maintaining a low price tag.

We also expect Motorola to launch the Moto X+1 smartphone sometime in the coming months at Berlin. Moto X+1 will shift its focus from user experience to spec war and is likely to come with high end specs like Snapdragon 801, 5-inch 1080p display and 2GB RAM. About Moto G2 smartphone, we think it is likely to come with a 5-inch 720P display, Snapdragon 400 processor and 1GB RAM.

Moto G2 is also said to come with upgraded set of cameras; the rear camera will have a resolution of 8-MP while the front facing camera will have 2-MP resolution. And don’t forget the regular software updates for the device from Google. Xiaomi has already created a price war in the market to which Motorola responded with a Rs 2,000 price cut in Moto G. Do you think Motorola will keep the price of this device above 15K? Let us know what you feel about the Moto G2 smartphone.
