Motorola Moto X4 could launch on August 24; press invites out

Motorola has just started sending out press invites for a launch event in Brazil. The event will take place in Sao Paulo from 10 AM onwards on August 24.

We are assuming that Motorola will take the wraps off its Moto X4 smartphone. Of course, the press invite doesn't specifically mention which device will be unveiled in the event. However, considering the number of times Moto X4 has appeared in leaks lately, it could be possible. The company has already launched the Moto G5S and Moto G5S Plus. That leaves Moto X4.

A couple of days ago, the smartphone's entire specs sheet came to light. According to which, the Moto X4 will arrive with a 5.2-inch FHD 1080p display and measure 7.99 mm in thickness and weigh in at 163 grams.

The device is likely to be offered in two color variants; Sterling Blue and Super Black. Under its hood, the smartphone will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 SoC along with different configurations such as 3GB/32GB for the North American, European and Latin American markets and 4GB/64GB for the Asia Pacific markets.

On the optics front, the Moto X4 is believed to be launched with a dual rear camera setup comprising of a 12MP primary sensor with dual pixel autofocus and f/2.0 aperture and an 8MP secondary sensor with f/2.2 aperture and 120-degree wide angle sensor. There will also be a dual LED flash unit at the back. Up front, there will be a 16MP selfie camera with f/2.0 aperture and 4K video recording support.

The Moto X4 is said to be IP68 certified to make it resistant to dust and water. A 3000mAh battery is believed to power the smartphone to keep the device running. This battery is claimed to support the TurboCharge feature that will power it up in just a few minutes.

While the chances of Moto X launching are more, Motorola could introduce the Moto Z2 Force as well.
