A Motorola phone with the confounding name
of "Moto G8 Power Lite" leaked earlier this month when Roland Quandt
posted renders of the phone. Now the Google Play Console has confirmed that the
phone is very much real, though it looks different.
Only the front is visible, showing that
the selfie camera is placed inside a notch instead of a punch hole. It's not
clear what this means for the camera on the back - Quandt's renders showed a
triple cam (with ultrawide angle and macro cameras).
The Play Console confirms other specs -
like the Helio P35 chipset (eight A53 cores), 4GB of RAM and old version of
Android (9.0 Pie). The screen has 720p+ resolution, but the size of its
diagonal is unknown (could be larger than the 6.4" panel on the Moto G8
Power, if the DPI reading is to be believed).
The Moto G8 Power Lite (XT2055-1) was
certified by the FCC, which revealed that the battery capacity is 5,000mAh,
matching the full-blooded Moto G8 Power. We don't know when Motorola will make
it official, but it can't be long now.
