Moto M gets portrayed in leaked renders, live images

Vlad, 20 October 2016

The upcoming Moto M has been certified by TENAA back in August, but somehow it still hasn't become official. Hopefully that's about to change real soon, since today we have a barrage of images showing it - leaked promotional renders, live hands-on images, the whole nine yards.

The Moto M will be the first device from Motorola to feature a fingerprint scanner on the back. It will have a full metal construction, and a rear that curves towards the sides - reminiscent of older high-end Motorolas. It's expected to arrive with a 5.5-inch touchscreen and a 3,000 mAh battery.

It could be powered by MediaTek's MT6750 chipset, which has a 1.9 GHz octa-core Cortex-A53 CPU. 3 or 4GB of RAM and 32 or 64GB of storage will be in tow. The rear camera will be a 16 MP unit, while for selfies you'll have to use an 8 MP sensor. 4G support will be baked in, and the Moto M will launch running Android 6.0 Marshmallow apparently. Its dimensions are 151 x 75 x 8 mm.

Rumor has it that the Moto M will finally be released at some point in November. What remains to be seen is exactly which markets will get it. Pricing is also a mystery.

Indeed Lenovo destroyed Moto by using cheaper soc in recent phones and not providing updates to al models. Earlier at least we used to get updates for at least 2 next android releases. RIP legendary Motorola phones.
