The Motorola Moto G9 Plus' launch date is
still unknown, but given the sizeable leak from a Slovakian telecom called
Orange Slovensko, the announcement might not be too far off. The listing is
still up at the time of writing along with pricing, but it might be taken off
soon.
The phone seems to have a similar design
to the Moto G8 Plus overall, but with a square-ish camera island on the back
and with an off-centered punch-hole camera on the front. The display itself is
quite big this time around - 6.8" with 1080 x 2400px resolution - still
LCD, though. The chipset remains unnamed while the memory configuration, or at
least one of several, is 4GB RAM with 128GB internal storage. MicroSD card is
supported.
The battery powering up the device is
5,000 mAh contradicting the earlier report of 4,700 mAh more than a month ago.
The quad-camera setup isn't detailed, but the main one is 64MP and judging by
the size of one of the sensors, there could be a 2 or 5MP dedicated macro
snapper in there as well. An ultra-wide camera is also to be expected.
It's good to note that the device won't be
having 5G connectivity narrowing down the possible 4G-only mid-range SoCs, the
fingerprint reader will be side-mounted and it's going to be a hefty phone
tipping the scale at 223g. The operator is asking € 235 for the 4GB/128GB
configuration off-contract and with € 20 additional discounts, so the actual
price might be € 255 at launch.
