It seems Lenovo will be releasing the Moto G6 as well as the Moto E5 series in Southeast Asia first, as they have been spotted on Indonesia's TKDN and Thailand's NBTC certification agencies, respectively.

Apart from the Moto G6 and Moto G6 Play, the 2018 lineup of the popular G series is also said to include Moto G6 Plus. The G and E series handsets will reportedly be released in Western countries after their Asia launch.

A report by Nashville Chatter, first spotted on Twitter, claims the Moto G6 (XT1925-7), Moto G6 Plus (XT1926-5), and Moto G6 Play (XT1922-1) have been listed on both TKDN and NBTC. On the other hand, the Moto E5 (XT1924-3) has been spotted on TKDN (Indonesia) and the Moto E5 Play (XT1944-6) was spotted on NBTC in Thailand.
