Motorola had a rough start this year in
light of COVID-19 disruption in smartphone sales and manufacture. Now, it is
doing its best to bring all devices that couldn’t be released in the first half
of 2020. A few months ago, the company introduced the Motorola Edge and Edge+.
The latter was the company’s first flagship after some years focusing on the
mid-range segment, the former a cheaper variant of this flagship. Both devices
came with seamless 5G connectivity. Early this month, the company presented the
Moto G 5G Plus, as the first 5G smartphone in the Moto G series. Recently,
rumors started to spread about the launch of the Moto G9 Plus. Today, live
photos and hands-on video of the alleged Moto E7 have leaked out.
The original report came from 91Mobiles,
it reveals some live photos and even a hands-on video of the unreleased Moto
E7. The leaked material is enough to give us a good glimpse of Motorola’s
upcoming low-end smartphone.
The Motorola Moto E7 features a waterdrop
notch on its display. According to previous leaks, this display has a 6.2-inch
diagonal. Moving back to the rear, we’ll have a dual-camera setup with 13MP
main and 2MP secondary sensors. The Motorola logo is present on the back, and
it probably doubles as a fingerprint scanner. Motorola definitively has trimmed
down the bezels of this display, but it’s not the slimmest we’ve seen. Of
course, the design is something often sacrificed in devices of this kind and
price ratio.
According to rumors, the handset will
boast 2GB of RAM, 32GB of storage along with the already old, Snapdragon 632
Processor. Of course, this is a good chipset for a Moto E-series smartphone.
The source also states that there will be a 4GB of RAM version with 64GB of
Internal Storage which definitely is a plus. The handset will run Android 10
straight out of the box with a few Motorola modifications and apps. The Moto E7
might go official in the end of the month. Hopefully, it will be priced below
$150, but we never know, as Motorola definitively traces a path that is
slightly different from other companies, especially the Chinese ones.
Recent reports also indicate the arrival
of a Moto G9 Plus. We can’t confirm the arrival of the G9 Plus along with the
Moto E7, but this is likely going to happen.
