Moto G22 to be launched in India next week
Motorola is all set to announce its Moto G22 in India next week, according to 91mobiles. However, there is no official word yet regarding the arrival of the smartphone in the country. To recall, it was introduced in the European market last month. The phone comes with a 90Hz display, a 50MP primary camera, and a MediaTek Helio G37 chipset.
Why does this story matter?
The Moto G22 is a budget offering and will take on entry-level handsets in India from rivals such as Xiaomi, Vivo, and Samsung. It made its global debut last month in the European market with minor upgrades over its predecessor, the Moto G20. The device packs decent hardware and the lack of 5G connectivity is unlikely to dissuade buyers in India.
The handset offers a 90Hz LCD screen
The Moto G22 features a top-centered punch-hole cut-out, slim bezels, a plastic body, and a water-resistant build quality. It has a fingerprint scanner on the right side of the frame and a quad camera unit on the rear. The handset bears a 6.5-inch HD+ (720x1600 pixels) LCD display with a 20:9 aspect ration and a 90Hz refresh rate.
It boasts a 50MP main camera
The Moto G22 comes with a quad rear camera setup comprising a 50MP (f/1.8) primary camera, an 8MP (f/2.2) ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP (f/2.4) macro as well as depth sensor. On the front, it has a 16MP (f/2.5) snapper.
The handset runs on Android 12
The Moto G22 is powered by a MediaTek Helio G37 chipset, paired with an IMG PowerVR GE8320 GPU. The handset runs on Android 12 OS and offers 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage, with a dedicated micro-SD card slot to expand storage. It packs a 5,000mAh battery with 15W charging. Connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, and a Type-C port.
Moto G22: Pricing and availability
The Moto G22 carries a price-tag of €170 (roughly Rs. 14,000) for its sole 4GB/64GB model. In India, it will be priced under Rs. 15,000 and should be available in shades of Cosmic Black, Iceberg Blue, and Pearl White color options. Source: 91mobiles.
