Motorola is getting
ready to unveil its first-ever phone with a pop-up camera. The phone boasts a
32MP cam installed in a pop-up module with a curious arrangement – the camera
is lined up with the dual camera hump on the back.
That hump is home
to another high-resolution sensor – the main camera has 64MP resolution. That’s
an upgrade over the 48MP sensor found in the Motorola One Zoom and Vision. There’s
no telephoto or even ultra wide camera here, though, just an 8MP depth sensor.
The main camera tops out at 4K/30 video recording and also offers 120fps
slow-mo at 1080p or 240fps at 720p. There are dedicated Night and Portrait
modes.
This phone is
closer to the Vision than it is to the Zoom. It has a 6.39” screen, an IPS LCD
with 1080p+ resolution. This means no Always On Display and no in-display
fingerprint reader – the reader is on the back. The interesting part is that
the FP reader is surrounded by an LED-lit ring. It can be configured to light
up for notifications and while charging or just when the phone is in use.
While we don’t know
its name, this is a Motorola One phone, meaning it runs nearly stock Android –
version 10 in this case. It’s powered by a Snapdragon 675 chipset with 4GB of
RAM and 128GB storage. You can expand that with a microSD card, the card tray
on the phone is a hybrid that can also house two nanoSIM cards. The phone also
boasts a USB-C port (no word on fast charging support, but 15W is most likely),
there’s also a 3.5mm headphone jack and an FM radio receiver.
