After releasing four Moto G-branded phones, three One-series devices, two Moto E models, and one Moto Z product it’s fair to say Motorola is on quite the roll this year. But, as it turns out, it’s not quite done yet.

A few weeks ago, information about a new model dubbed Motorola One Macro emerged. Now, that phone has been spotted on a Saudi Arabian retail website (viaGSMArena) alongside some key camera specs. As previously suspected, the device features a notched display up front which is paired with relatively slim bezels and an oversized chin. The size of this panel is yet to be confirmed but it’s believed to sport a 19:9 aspect ratio and a HD+ resolution.

Turning the phone over reveals a glass rear panel complete with a vertical camera setup in the corner and a Motorola logo in the center. The latter apparently houses a fingerprint scanner while the former includes three cameras and some other extras. Acting as the main sensor should be a 13-megapixel snapper while a 2-megapixel macro camera gives the smartphone its name. Also present is what’s presumed to be a 2-megapixel depth sensor and a laser autofocus system. Completing the setup is an LED flash.

Powering the Motorola One Macro should be MediaTek’s Helio P60 which is comparable to Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 660. As standard, the chip should be paired with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage although a version with 3GB of RAM may also be in the works. The smartphone will likely ship with Android 9 Pie straight out of the box but the lack of branding suggests it won’t be part of the Android One family.

Motorola is yet to confirm pricing or a release date. Nevertheless, retailer Extra’s website had the phone for SAR 899, which converts to about $240.
