Moto G6 Series
Moto G6 series incorporates three Motorola phones that have been launched recently at an event in Brazil. Too many expectations and then we finally got to see the all new Moto G6 series including Moto G6, G6 Plus, and G6 Play. Let’s begin with talking about the phones, their working, specifications, colors, price, and everything.
Moto G6 Series Design
Well, Motorola has not been so experimenting with the design of the phones. And if you own a Moto G5, you will see a little-tweaked G5’s design into G6. It would be safe to say that G6 will give you the nostalgic feels of G5 with its design. But, let’s dig deeper…
A 3D glass is used for both G6 and G6 Plus, however, the G6 play is a bit different as its back has Polymer material. All the three phones have 3.5mm headphone jack. And then there is a USB-C port at the bottom edge of all the three phones. The edges are curvy and the phones have a fingerprint sensor embedded in them. The Moto G6 series has bigger screens of about 18*9 display. Cause as we say, the bigger the screens, the better the experience.
