Latest leak nets third-gen Motorola Moto G renders, confirms 1080p screen, SD610, 2GB of RAM

A week from today, Motorola is expected to hold a media event that should result in the unveiling of a few new handsets including the third-generation Motorola Moto G. Today, a retailer hailing from Switzerland has listed the phone on its website in both black and white. But the leak has netted more than just images of the eagerly awaited handset.

According to digitec, the retailer we can thank for listing the phone on its site, the third-generation Moto G will have a 5-inch display with a 1080 x 1920 FHD resolution. That works out to a pixel density of 441ppi. With an octa-core 1.7GHz CPU and the Adreno 405 GPU under the hood, it would appear that the Snapdragon 610 SoC will be driving the next iteration of the Moto G. Unfortunately, as we already expected, only 8GB of internal storage is inside the phone. However, it appears that Motorola has seen fit to place a 128GB capacity microSD slot on the device.

The third-gen Moto G will carry the same 2070mAh battery as its predecessor, although that figure could be a placeholder. The price of the phone works out to the equivalent of $245 USD. Before you cringe, that figure could be bloated by the inclusion of Swiss taxes.

The clock keeps ticking as we move closer to Motorola's big day. Expect to see more leaks as July 28th draws nearer and nearer.


Thanks for the tip!
