Lenovo-owned Motorola's Moto G series of mid-range smartphones is due for an upgrade and the rumour mill has been churning out reports around the upcoming Moto G6 series that might include the Moto G6, Moto G6 Play, and Moto G6 Plus. While there has been no official communication from Motorola, exclusive images and specifications of the Moto G6 Plus have surfaced online that reveal certain features.

According to an Android Headlines report, the Moto G6 Plus will be made available in Silver, Gold, White, Blue, and Cyan colour options. The report also states that the phone will feature a metal and glass body with a curved back panel. On the back of the smartphone will be a dual camera setup with dual LED flash below that.
