The Moto G9 Play was announced just a few months ago and now we are getting an early look at a device that is said to arrive as its successor. The renders of the phone which is expected to arrive as the Moto G10 Play shows the Lenovo-owned company adopting a new design for the front while leaving the rear largely unchanged.

The source of the leak is Steve Hemmerstoffer who is popularly known as OnLeaks and he posted the renders along with some details on Voice. He specifically says he hasn’t confirmed the official name of the device but its model number is XT-2117, so take the info about it being the Moto G10 Play with a grain of salt.

The phone has a punch hole at the top left corner of the screen, unlike the Moto G9 Play that has a waterdrop notch. The screen is a flat 6.5-inch panel with moderate bezels around it. There is a squircle camera housing on the back that is centered and houses three cameras and an LED flash. Sitting below the setup is the Motorola logo.

While the Moto G9 Play has its fingerprint scanner on the back, Motorola has decided to move the scanner to the side on this new device where it is buried under a recessed power button. There is a volume rocker above the power button, a USB-C port and power grille at the bottom, and an audio jack at the top.

The Motorola XT-2117 will measure 165.3 x 75.4 x 9.5 millimeters (the thickness goes up to 10.4 mm when you add the camera bump) when it launches. The device has been certified by the FCC and a TÜV Rheinland certification says that it packs a 4850mAh battery.

The leaker says the phone should arrive in a few weeks. If it is indeed the Moto G10 Play, it means the Moto G9 Play is getting a successor after just two months or thereabout.
