Qualcomm is expected to announce the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus (SM8475 part number) by early June 2022. It could be an overclocked version of the existing Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip. Rumors have it that an upcoming Motorola flagship, with ‘Frontier’ codename, could be the world’s first phone to feature the SD8G1. Today, a Weibo user (via) shared a live image of the Motorola Frontier flagship to reveal the appearance of its camera module.
The leaked image shows the Motorola Frontier’s rear shell has curved edges. The camera module of the device appears similar to the Xiaomi 12 series. As can be seen, the camera module has a main camera on top, and below it are the two other camera sensors.
The edge of the camera module has an LED flash strip and ‘200MP HP1 OS f/2.2″ text imprinted. Motorola’s batwing logo can also be seen on the backside of the device. Its right side has a volume rocker and a power key. The authenticity of the leaked image is doubtful. Hence, it is advisable to digest the leak with a pinch of salt.
Initial reports of the Motorola Frontier flagship claimed that it had a 200MP main camera. In February, reliable tipster Evan Blass released a render of the Motorola Frontier, which revealed a 194MP primary camera. The leaked image that appeared to surface today matches with Blass’ leaked render. However, the only noticeable difference is that it has the 194MP | OIS 1/15″ text imprinted in the camera module.
Motorola Frontier specifications (rumored)
The Motorola Frontier will feature a 6.73-inch P-OLED FHD+ 144Hz display. It will be powered by the SD8G1+ chip, up to 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM, up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and a 4,500mAh battery with 125W fast charging support. It will also carry support for 50W wireless charging. For photography, it will feature a 60-megapixel front camera and a 194-megapixel (main) + 50-megapixel (ultrawide) + 12-megapixel (telephoto) triple camera unit. The Frontier handset is likely to launch as an Edge series device.
