The mid-range Motorola Moto G has quickly become the company's' most successful smartphone to date. Motorola is reportedly planning on using the same recipe that made the Moto G its bestselling smartphone of all time.
After Motorola and Google kicked off the much-hyped Moto X, it became clear that the company could not compete with Apple and Samsung in the high-end smartphone market. Motorola soon devised a plan to make an inexpensive smartphone that shipped with impressive features like a 4.5-inch 720p display, 5-megapixel rear camera with built-in support to record 720p HD video @30fps, and speedy quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor.
Motorola confirmed in February that sales of its Moto G smartphone have exceeded the company's expectations and described the smartphone as "the most successful, highest-selling smartphone in Motorola's history." The company recently introduced a new model with 4G LTE.
A new report claims that Motorola is readying the smartphone for release and a picture and some of what are reportedly the handset's specs have leaked.
Mallandonoandroid posted an image of what is allegedly the Moto G2 and the site has also revealed what we can expect in Motorola's upcoming Moto G successor. The image provides an up close and personal look at the Moto G2's 4.6 inch display, which will reportedly have a resolution of 1280 x 720 and a pixel density of 320 pixels per inch (ppi). The smartphone will also reportedly feature a faster quad-core processor and Adreno 305 GPU (graphics processing unit).
The Moto G2 will also come equipped with a more advanced and higher quality 8-megapixel rear camera. Travelers will appreciate that the handset will have dual-SIM capabilities.
There's no word on an expected release date at this point, but Motorola needs to strike while the iron is still hot and the Moto G has already proven itself. There's no word on when we should expect to see the Moto G2 hit store shelves, once we hear any more information, we'll pass it on.
