Amid all the rumors and leaks exposing Motorola’s upcoming gadgets, the company has announced that it has an event scheduled for July 28. And from the looks of it, something of great importance is coming, as the unveiling will take place in three major cities – London, São Paulo, and New York. “A better mobile relationship is on its way” – that’s how the tagline goes, leaving us wondering what’s to be shown off on stage. The evidence, however, leads us to believe that Motorola is going to unveil the latest Moto X and Moto G smartphones, among other devices.
The latest Motorola Moto X (2015) leak came from Brazil (hardly a coincidence) and showed us what the back of the phone could look like. Rumor has it that the new Moto X will come with a 5.2-inch display and a Snapdragon 810 SoC. Its main camera is said to have been treated to a much-needed upgrade, which is great news given the average performance of last year’s model. We’re also hoping to see a beefier battery tucked inside Motorola’s new flagship phone.
Now would be a good time to mention that a 5.7-inch Moto X model is rumored to be coming, but evidence in support of this claim is pretty scarce. Similar is the situation with the rumored Moto X Sport, which could be a rugged, water-resistant variant of the new Moto X.
Just like the Moto X (2015), the budget-friendly Moto G (2015) was also leaked numerous times, including in high-quality renders. The handset will likely offer a 5-inch display, and a Snapdragon 410 is expected to power it. Several variants of the phone are said to be in the works, including one with 8GB of storage and 1GB of RAM and a more potent version carrying 16GB of storage and 2GB of RAM. Interestingly, it is claimed that the new Moto G will be water-resistant and will carry an IPx7 rating, which is a rare trait among phones of this price range. Speaking of which, the 2015-edition Moto G should start at $179.99 when released in the U.S.
In addition to a new Moto X and a new Moto G, Motorola might also announce a successor to the Moto 360 smartwatch at its event. Little is known about the allegedly upcoming wearable, but according to rumors, it could have a higher-resolution screen with 360 pixels across its diameter.
And if that’s not enough, a new Motorola Droid model for Verizon could be coming as well. Unfortunately, very little is being passed along about this particular handset. We don’t have any specs, price, or a possible launch date as of now. Whether Motorola will show us the new Droid at the July 28 event in New York remains to be seen.
