Motorola is gearing up to launch new Moto G series such as Moto G8, Moto G8 Power and Moto G Stylus phones. Recent reports have revealed that the Lenovo-owned company is also working on Snapdragon 765 and Snapdragon 865 driven high-end phones. A fresh report on XDA Developers states that it has received live shots of two new Motorola phones along with specs and features. It claims that they are dubbed as “Motorola One 2020” in marketing materials. It is speculated that one of these Motorola One 2020 phone could be also coming to some markets as Motorola Edge+
The report states that the Snapdragon 865 powered flagship phone in the Motorola One 2020 series is codenamed as “burton” and it is also being referred to as “race turbo” internally. On the other side, the Snapdragon 765 or 765G driven phone is codenamed as “racer 5G” or “racer.”
The Racer 5G is expected to debut as Motorola One 5G 2020 and as the name suggests it carries support for 5G connectivity. The Burton device is just called Motorola One 2020 and does not have 5G mentioned in its name. However, being a flagship phone, it will carry support for 5G connectivity. The Motorola One 2020 will be exclusively available through Verizon in the U.S. Some markets in the U.S. may receive its non-5G edition. Also, there is a possibility that this device could be called Motorola Edge+ in the U.S. Both devices have similar specs and one of the main attractions about them is that they are equipped with 6.67-inch curved displays that offer 90hz refresh rate.
The Motorola One 5G 2020 is expected to come with Snapdragon 765 or 765G along with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage. The rear camera setup of the phone will have a 48-megapixel main lens. It could be housing a big battery of 4,660mah capacity. It will arrive with support for NFC. One of the variants of the phone will come with support for dual SIM.
There is less information available about the Motorola One 2020 (aka Motorola Edge+). The Snapdragon 865 powered flagship smartphone from Motorola will come in 8 GB and 12 GB RAM editions. It could be housing a massive battery of 5,170mAh capacity. Both phones will come preloaded with Android 10 OS. These phones will come with some apps made by Motorola such as Moto Edge Assistant which will offer customizable tap actions on the curved edges of the display, Moto Gamtime toolbar for enhanced gaming experience and an auto-tuning app called Moto Audio. The Moto Edge Assistant app will be exclusively available on Motorola One 2020 series devices with curved edges.
Motorola will be present at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2020 to announce new devices. It is likely that the Motorola One 2020 series may go official at MWC 2020.
