During the course of this month, there have been many rumors and leaks relating to the new Moto G6 smartphones Motorola was preparing to release. Now, that retail listings for the devices have gone live, the specifications and prices of these devices have become clear.
The base model of the line is called the Moto G6 Play, and — unlike the two other models in the line — it has a rear fingerprint sensor. It also has a single 12-megapixel rear camera — with an LED flash and a protective circular bezel — and a 5-megapixel front camera. It further comes with a 4,000 mAh fast-charging battery, a 1.4 GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor, a 5.7″ IPS display with a 1440 x 720 (16:9) resolution, an Adreno 505 GPU, 3 GB of RAM and either 16 GB or 32 GB of storage. It is expected to sell for about $187.
The next step up in the line is the Moto G6. Unlike the Moto G6 Play, its fingerprint sensor is on the front of the device. It also differs in that it has dual 12-megapixel rear cameras and a single 16-megapixel front camera. It also comes with a 3,000 mAh fast-charging battery, a 1.8 GHz Octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 processor, a 5.7″ IPS display with a 2160 x 1080 (18:9) resolution, an Adreno 506 GPU, 4 GB of RAM and either 32 GB or 64 GB of storage. It is expected to sell for about $234.
The top model of the line is the Moto G6 Plus. It looks much like the Moto G6, with the same fingerprint sensor on the front, the same cameras and the same storage options. But it has a slightly larger 5.93″ IPS display with the same resolution as the Moto G6. It further comes with a 3,200 mAh fast-charging battery, a 2.2 GHz Octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 processor, an Adreno 508 GPU and 6 GB of RAM. It is expected to sell for about $265.
All three devices will come loaded with Android 8.0 (Oreo), and they will be available for sale sometime this month.
