Motorola is gearing up for the Moto G96 5G India launch, a mid-range smartphone that first surfaced last month. The company recently shared a teaser on its official social media channels with the tagline “All eyes on you,” which hint that the phone will be both stylish and powerful.
Design and features
The teaser shows a stylish design with dual rear cameras, a water-resistant body, and four color choices. While Motorola hasn’t officially named the device, the features strongly match the Moto G96 5G, which has already been mentioned in several leaks.
The phone is expected to feature a premium curved 6.67-inch pOLED display with 10-bit color and a 144Hz refresh rate for a smooth and immersive experience for videos and games. This would be a big upgrade for the G-series when it comes to display quality.
Performance and camera
Under the hood, the Moto G96 5G is rumored to be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 SoC, a capable upper-midrange chipset. While it’s not the latest Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, the Gen 2 still delivers solid performance and power efficiency for most tasks, including multitasking and gaming.
The phone is likely to feature a 50MP Sony Lytia LYT-700C main sensor with OIS, accompanied by an 8MP ultra-wide camera that may double as a macro shooter. On the front, users can expect a 32MP selfie camera, ideal for video calls and high-resolution selfies.
Audio, battery, and durability
Moto G96 5G is tipped to come with stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos support, promising an enhanced audio experience. In terms of battery life, the phone is rumored to pack a 5,500mAh battery and support 68W fast charging, ensuring minimal downtime.
Durability is another focus area, with the device expected to offer IP68 certification, making it resistant to dust and water ingress, a rarity in this price segment.
