Motorola is really determined to win over the audience who is looking for high-end smartphones. At the end of last year, the manufacturer launched the first device with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in China, the Moto X30. And in 2022, history may repeat itself with the launch of the Moto X40.
According to information from the leaked digital chat station, the Moto X40 should be the first smartphone in the market with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. Not yet released, this processor will be the direct successor to the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and promises great performance. Additionally, Motorola’s flagship phone is expected to feature an FHD+ display and a 50MP main camera.
