“The Motorola Moto G6 and Moto G6 Play are the debut 18:9 display handsets in the G-series by the brand”

Lenovo-owned, US-based brand Motorola launched its  Moto G6, G6 Plus, and Moto G6 Play smartphones in Brazil last month. The brand then sent out media invites confirming that Moto G6 and Moto G6 Play will land in India on June 4th. Today, as expected, the handset maker has launched these handsets in the sub-continent. Notably, these handsets mark the debut of Moto G-series in the 18:9 arena and come with a premium glass-sandwich design. 

Speaking of the Moto G6 first, the smartphone ships with 5.7-inch IPS LCD display bearing full HD+ resolution and 18:9 aspect ratio. As for the performance, the handset is powered by a 1.8GHz octa-core Snapdragon 450 processor accompanied by Adreno 506 graphics processing unit. Motorola is offering the smartphone in two variants – 3GB + 32GB and 4GB + 64GB, both with support for microSD card up to 128GB. For imaging, there is a 12MP + 5MP setup on the rear panel and 16MP selfie shooter, both accompanied by a LED flash. The Moto G6 boots the stock Android 8.0 Oreo out of the box and is powered by a 3,000mAh battery with TurboPower charging support. There is a fingerprint scanner on the front for security.

These handsets come with Motorola’s Smart Camera, which can recognise faces, scenes and even text. However, Motorola has announced that an update will be rolled out soon, which will bring Google Lens integration to the latest launches.
