Motorola is probably going to give someone the hairdryer
treatment on Monday morning. The latest iteration of its Moto G
smartphone prematurely appeared online, suggesting that it won’t be too
long before it's released.
Those phone shopping on a budget, this one is for you. The
3rd generation Moto G has made a brief appearance on the website of
third-party device retailer Flipkart (viaGadget Raid).
It appears this was all an accident as the listing was swiftly pulled from the retailer's site not long after word got out.
Lucky
for whoever made the blunder, there was no photo or any confirmed specs
released. However the listing did mention a white colour scheme and an
8GB storage option.
Apart from this, Motorola has done well to
keep the new Moto G out of the news. Although recent speculation
suggests the latest model will boast 4G LTE connectivity, a 5 or
5.2-inch 1080p display, 2GB of RAM and a 1.7GHz Snapdragon 610
processor.
There’s been no word on a price or release date, but
considering we’re starting to hear more of the new Moto G, it shouldn’t
be too long before it’s officially outed.
We’re big fans of the
Moto G and everything it stands for, providing more-than-capable specs
for a bargain price tag. The original Moto G was hailed as a breath of fresh air and the 2014 Moto G added 4G to the mix, making it even more attractive to those seeking a low-end handset.
If
the new Moto G indeed packs a 1080p display, then it would be the icing
on the cake – that’s if it doesn’t compromise its affordable price
point.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Moto G, we expect to hear more in the coming weeks.
