Motorola appears to be preparing two new budget-friendly devices, the Moto G05 and Moto G15, to add to its popular G-series lineup. According to a report from 91mobiles, both smartphones will launch in Europe in the coming month, with the Moto G05 priced at EUR 140 for the 4GB + 128GB variant (around Rs 12,734) and EUR 170 for the 4GB + 256GB version (about Rs 15,460). Meanwhile, the Moto G15 will be available as an 8GB + 256GB model, costing EUR 200 (approximately Rs 18,190).
Although no information is yet available regarding the India launch, the European pricing suggests competitive entry-level options. The Moto G14, for example, launched in India earlier this year for Rs 9,999 (around EUR 110), so Motorola’s pricing strategy might be similarly budget-friendly.
Performance and specifications of Moto G15
In terms of performance, the Moto G15 recently appeared in a Geekbench listing, scoring 340 in single-core tests and 1311 in multi-core tests. This device is equipped with an octa-core processor featuring two performance cores clocked at 2.0GHz and six efficiency cores at 1.7GHz, along with a Mali-G52 MC2 GPU. It also runs on Android 15.
Interestingly, the test device had only 4GB of RAM, while, according to the tipster, the retail model will feature double that capacity—potentially indicating higher performance.
In comparison, the Moto G14’s 8GB model scored 447 and 1577 in Geekbench single and multi-core tests, respectively. Powered by a Unisoc T616 chip, the G14’s performance specs highlight slight improvements, with two Cortex-A75 performance cores at 2.0 GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores at 1.8 GHz.
The G15’s lower-than-expected score may also be due to it being tested on Geekbench 5 rather than Geekbench 6, which the Moto G14 used. Since the two versions assess performance differently, direct comparisons may not be accurate.
The Moto G05 and G15 will likely include Motorola’s core design elements, coupled with budget-conscious hardware configurations, to cater to a value-seeking audience. If the Moto G14 is any indication, these new models may feature Motorola’s signature clean Android interface, decent camera setups, and robust battery life, making them accessible yet capable devices in the lower-midrange category.
