Motorola today announced its widely anticipated **Moto G7** lineup at an event in Brasil. The company announced three smartphones this year - the Moto G7, the Moto G7 Play and the Moto G7 Power. A fourth more-capable version of the phone is also expected to be announced for international markets but there isn’t any news on that yet. While the Lenovo-owned company has revealed prices for any of the three smartphones on their website yet, a report by The Verge states that the regular Moto G7 is priced the highest among the three phones with a price tag of $299. The Moto G7 Power and the Moto G7 Play, on the other hand, are priced starting at $249 and $199 respectively. [caption id=“attachment_6047591” align=“alignnone” width=“1024”] Moto G7 lineup.

The G7 also gets the smaller notch among the three, with Motorola adopting a waterdrop notch style rather than a wider bathtub styled notch. Inside, the G7 is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 chip along with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB internal storage. The phone also supports storage expansion up to 128 GB via a microSD card. For optics, the G7 gets a dual-camera setup at the back with a 12 MP primary camera and a 5 MP depth sensor with an LED flash. There’s also an 8 MP camera on the front for selfies and video calls. The phone runs on Android Pie 9.0, though there isn’t any mention of Android One, and also get a 3,000 mAh battery along with a 15 W TurboPower charger out of the box.

Moto G7 Power The Moto G7 Power, as the name suggests, it catered to the power user. The phone gets the same 6.2-inch LTPS LCD display but with a resolution of 1570 x 720 pixels. The design has also been altered a little bit on the front, with the G7 Power featuring a wider notch than that on the G7. Inside, we have the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 chip powering the phone but the RAM has been reduced to 3 GB and the storage down to 32 GB. You do have the option of expanding storage up to 512 GB though via a micro SD card. On the camera front, the G7 Power gets a single rear camera setup comprising of a 12 MP f/2.0 lens along with an LED flash. On the front, there’s the same 8 MP camera as on the G7. The highlight of the G7 Power though is its beefy 5,000 mAh battery which again can be juiced up fairly quickly courtesy of the 15 W TurboPower charger supplied in the box. The software remains the same as well. The Moto G7 Power will be available in a single Marine Blue shade.
