Update: The tipster has claimed that the phone could actually be launching as Motorola P40 Note.
Original Story follows..
In February, Motorola had launched the Moto G7, Moto G7 Plus, Moto G7 Play and Moto G7 Power smartphones in Brazil. The Lenovo-owned company is gradually making these phones available in wider markets. Fresh information reveals that the company has already started working on successor models for the Moto G7 series. An Indian publication has collaborated with popular tipster OnLeaks to share the renders and 360-degree video of the forthcoming Moto G8 smartphone.
The render of the Moto G8 reveals that it bears resemblance with the upcoming Motorola One Vision smartphone. Like the One Vision phone, the Moto G8 is equipped with a punch-hole display. However, instead of dual rear cameras found on the One Vision, the G8 is blessed with a triple camera setup.
According to OnLeaks, the Moto G8 has 160.1 x 71.2 x 9.1mm dimensions. The thickest part of the phone is where the triple cameras are located. The camera bump increases the thickness of the device to 9.7mm. The handset houses a 6.2-inch punch-hole display. The upcoming One Vision also features the same-sized punch-hole display. The bottom bezel of the phone is thick enough to house the brand name of the company. The remaining three bezels are very slim. An earpiece can be found on the edge of the slim bezel above the display.
On the rear side of the Moto G8 is a vertically aligned triple camera module at the top-left corner. It is followed by a dual-LED flash. Without going into the details of all the three camera sensors, the leakster has claimed that the phone is equipped with a 12-megapixelt triple camera setup. There is no information available on the other specifications of the Moto G8.
Placed on the bottom side of the Moto G8 is a microUSB 2.0 port, an external speaker grill and a microphone. The right edge of the phone has buttons for controlling volume and power. An ejectable SIM card tray can be found on its left side. Another microphone and a 3.5mm audio jack are available on the top edge of the Moto G8. The Motorola batwing logo on the rear shell of the device is integrated with a fingerprint sensor.
There is no confirmation on the launch date of the Moto G8. Now that the G7 series is being made available in different markets, the Moto G8 series may get introduced at least after six months from now. Motorola is known for announcing its G-series of smartphones in the first quarter of the year. Hence, there is a possibility that the Moto G8 series get unveiled in the first quarter of 2020.
