It looks so much like the Moto X4 phone that Motorola unveiled at the recent IFA 2017 consumer-electronics trade fair in Berlin, Germany. That one features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 system-on-a-chip, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, 12- and 8-megapixel cameras on the back, and a 16-megapixel selfie cam. Its full-HD screen measures 5.2 inches, and a 3,000mAh battery powers the assembly.

Word has it that the Moto X4 lookalike will be the first Android One device to be released in the U.S. However, it seems that it will be more expensive than other Android One phones. Previous reports pegged the price to be between $300 (roughly P15,263) to $400 (around P20,350).
