Motorola has teased a new smartphone that is slated to launch in a few days. The teaser shared on Twitter suggests that the phone will be performance and camera focused and hints at the presence of a rear-mounted physical fingerprint sensor, USB Type C charging port and bottom-firing speakers.

The Flipkart landing page for this upcoming device has a slide show of four different questions that not only hints towards the key specifications of the upcoming phone but once you answer all the questions, you’re redirected to a landing page that inadvertently leaks out the launch date as August 24.

 Moto G9 Plus – What we can expect 

While not much is known about this device as of now but if we try to decode the Flipkart teaser, it does give a list of probable features of the device.

For the battery pack, it suggests that the device may have a large battery pack i.e. either 4850 mAh, 4500 mA, 4300 mAh or 4000 mAh. The display of this phone will be over 6-inches though our best bet is 6.3-inches. In terms of processing power, this phone is supposed to come with a Snapdragon series processor. The options offered by Flipkart includes - Snapdragon 630, Snapdragon 660, Snapdragon 450 or Snapdragon 636.

In terms of optics, it suggests the presence of a 48-megapixel dual rear camera setup or a 32-megapixel triple camera setup. Other options include a single 48-megapixel camera and a single 16-megapixel camera.

Going by the above hints it is clear that the upcoming smartphone will be a mid-budget segment smartphone that could take on the likes of Redmi 9 Pro or Pro Max, Realme 6 Series or the Poco X2. Or does it want to become an OnePlus Nord alternative?

As the launch could happen in just a couple of days, we can expect a few more details coming out soon. Hence stay tuned.
