The post Motorola Moto G31 will reportedly be launching in India this month appeared first on Gizmochina.

Motorola unveiled the Moto G30 in mid-February. This means it has been only seven months since its announcement. But according to certifications, its successor dubbed as Moto G31 is just around the corner. The Lenovo-owned brand is known for refreshing its phones only a year after their release. Hence, this could be the first time there will be a new model of a Motorola smartphone within a year from the launch of its predecessor.

The upcoming Motorola Moto G31 from Lenovo with model number XT2173 has been certified by NBTC and WiFi Alliance. The former confirms that it will be a 4G-only handset, while the latter reveals that it will run Android 11 and will have support for dual-band WiFi. Additionally, the device has also been certified by EEC.

Other than the above-mentioned information, we know nothing about the Moto G31. Anyway, we can expect it to arrive with a set of features like the Moto G30.

For those unaware, the Motorola Moto G30 has a 6.5-inch HD+ 90Hz display (LCD), Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 chipset, 64MP (wide) + 8MP (ultra-wide) + 2MP (macro) + 2MP (depth) quad-camera setup, 13MP selfie camera, rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, IP53 rating, Android 11, 5,000mAh battery, and 20W fast charging.

Since the Moto G30 is also sold as Lenovo K13 Po, the upcoming Moto G31 might also debut as a Lenovo smartphone in some markets.
