Moto G5S leak reveals metal unibody design and three different colour options
The Moto G5S will feature a unibody aluminium metal design as opposed to the metal back and plastic sides found on G5 and G5 Plus.
Motorola is reportedly planning to introduce a slew of new devices across different price bands this year. The company has already made its Moto G5 and Moto C series official, and a leaked slide reveals the company's plan to introduce updated versions of Moto E, Moto X and Moto Z series smartphones.
While the Moto G5 and G5 Plus smartphones are already official, the company is said to introduce two more handsets in the series called G5S and G5S+. Ahead of the launch, Android Authority has obtained images of the upcoming Moto G5S. It reports that the images have been obtained from a trusted source and depicts the device in three different colours: grey, gold and dark blue. The design seems to be similar to the existing Moto G5 series and might be placed in between the existing G5 and G5 Plus handsets.
The leaked image shows Motorola is planning to bring back the classic Moto dimple placed at the centre of the device. There is also a small moto logo placed between the earpiece and the display. The front also features the redesigned front fingerprint sensor, which should also work as a navigation button.
The Moto G5S will reportedly feature a unibody aluminium metal design as opposed to the metal back and plastic sides found on G5 and G5 Plus. The leaks indicate that the handset will feature a 5.2-inch full HD display and Motorola will brand the device as an 'Unlimited Premium' offering. The Moto G5S+ is expected to come with a 5.5-inch full HD display and a dual rear camera setup. Lenovo recently confirmed that its upcoming Moto Z2 Play will feature a smaller 3000mAh battery pack. The handset received TENAA certification and is expected to be announced on June 8.
