The Moto G55 will likely be improved in a variety of essential methods. | Picture Credit score — Motorola
On the identical time, after all, this mannequin has to enhance on final yr’s Moto G55 whereas additionally towering over the G45 and presumably impending G46. All in all, the specs and options listed above appear to fulfill these circumstances, and most certainly, your expectations, with a small however notable battery capability improve, an fascinating selfie digital camera enchancment, and a predictable processor change ready compared with the aforementioned G55 5G.
The Moto G56 5G will even be significantly bigger than its predecessor, each by way of display screen measurement and general dimensions, and maybe most impressively, its sturdiness will likely be vastly improved as properly, with IP68, IP69, and MIL-STD-810H certifications guaranteeing top-notch water, mud, and even drop resistance. Sadly, that additionally means the load will develop to at least 200 grams, though for what it is value, Motorola plans to steadiness out the model equation with a variety of very interesting-sounding paint jobs.
What ought to be your pricing and availability expectations?
That, my pals, is the million-dollar query Evan Blass cannot (or will not) reply in the meanwhile. And whereas I clearly can not give you any ensures or agency predictions both, it feels comparatively protected to imagine that the Moto G56 5G will see daylight someday this summer time after the identical factor occurred with the Moto G55 5G again in August 2024.
For those who’re ready for this new Android mid-ranger to be launched in markets just like the US, that is… most likely not going to occur, whereas in Europe, I count on the G56 to price round €250 in the one configuration you need to think about shopping for. I am speaking in regards to the one with 256 gigs of inside space for storing and 8GB RAM, which can apparently obtain two main OS updates and safety patches for 4 years.
The entry-level 128GB/4GB variant, in the meantime, is barely assured to attain an Android 16 promotion and three years of safety updates, which makes it a not-very-smart purchase no matter its value level.
Along with the Moto G56 5G (codename “Bogota”), Motorola is reportedly engaged on G86 and G96 fashions as properly, the latter of which is completely shrouded in secrecy. And in case you are questioning, no, that machine has no G95 predecessor, so I am positively curious to see what it’s going to carry to the desk.
