The upcoming Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2017 event at Barcelona is going to witness the launch of much-awaited flagship smartphones. Among those is going to be Motorola, which is widely expected to launch the rumored Moto G5 and the Moto G5 Plus. As the names suggest, they will be the successors to last year’s Moto G4 and G4 Plus.
The leaked case renders are claimed to be from a case maker, and they reiterate Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus design rumours that have been making rounds on the Internet. Both the Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus are widely expected to sport fingerprint scanner at the front which will be embedded in the physical home button of the handsets. Further, both smartphones are said to have circular camera panel at the back. The iconic Moto "M" logo is expected to be present right below to the circular Moto G5 and G5 Plus camera panels at the back.
The new case renders also hint that the Moto G5 and G5 Plus will be available in Gold colour as well apart from Silver version which was leaked previously. Spotted by Techdroider, the Moto G5 Plus seen here is sporting a gold color, and wrapped in a flip cover.
There have been reports suggesting the likely price for the Moto G5 Plus, which could fall around $300 in international markets (approximately Rs 20,400). In India, the smartphone is said to make its debut in March, soon after MWC 2017 concludes, and it is suspected to be priced slightly lesser at $230 (approximately Rs 15,600).
Moto G5 specifications and features
The lower variant of the two, the Moto G5 has been recently certified by the US regulatory agency FCC, which revealed that the smartphone will be powered by a 3,000mAh battery accompanied by Turbo Charging support. The FCC listing also revealed NFC support for the Moto G5 smartphone. Other than that, the G5 is expected to come with 3GB of RAM and onboard storage of 16GB. More leaks suggest that the G5 will sport a 13-megapixel rear camera.
Rounding off the leaks and rumors of the G5 Plus, the smartphone will most likely feature a 5.5-inch full HD Super AMOLED display along with Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection. At the core of the smartphone, will most likely be Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 625 processor clocked at 2GHz and paired with Adreno 506 GPU. In terms of RAM and storage, the Moto G5 Plus could come with 4GB of RAM, and onboard storage of 32GB which would be further expandable via a microSD card.
