If you’re the type that loves his/her tech leaks, then you might have heard how the famed @evleaks has recently announced his retirement. However perhaps as a final parting gift, @evleaks posted one last leak, and this time it is that of the upcoming Moto X+1, the successor to last year’s Moto X.
These are probably some of the cleanest images we’ve seen of the alleged handset to date, although once again we can’t be sure of their authenticity, but given @evleaks’ reputation and track record, there is a good chance that the images could be the real deal. The folks at Droid-Life have pieced together a comparison, as you can see in the image above, showing the old Moto X compared to the newer model.
As you can see, the overall shape of the phone appears to be the same, although the Moto X+1 does appear to be slightly bigger. There also appears to be grills at the top and bottom of the phone, which seems like they could be used for front-facing speakers. The Motorola logo on the back of the phone also seems to have been enlarged with Verizon’s logo engraved at the bottom.
This suggests that Verizon will be one of the carriers to offer the handset, although there is no word if other carriers like AT&T, Sprint, or T-Mobile will offer up the Moto X+1 as well. In any case we have to say that the phone looks pretty good and here’s hoping Motorola will have something official to announce soon.
