Even more leaked images of the Moto Z Play surface

The upcoming Moto Z Play isn’t the best-kept secret by any means. We’ve already seen a few leaks, and it's back again with even more photos.

The upcoming Moto Z Play isn’t the best-kept secret by any means. We’ve already seen a few leaks, but this time, we also get a glimpse of the white variation.

Earlier this month, we reported that the Moto Z Play will be joining the recently-announced Moto Z family. China’s TENAA certification gave us a sneak peek at the device itself, including some of its specs: the upcoming Moto Z Play will sport a 5.5 inch 1080p AMOLED display, a 2GHz octa-core processor, 3GB of RAM, and 64GB of internal storage, all powered by a juicy 3,510mAh battery. It’s expected to have a 5-megapixel selfie shooter and a 16-megapixel rear camera.

The leak didn’t stop there. We saw some photos of a prototype device just a few days after the TENAA certification. And now, the Moto Z Play is back again with even more photos, and it is a sexy-looking device as you can see below:

Design-wise, not much seems to have changed. Just like the Moto Z and the Moto Z Force, it has a fingerprint scanner on the front and a huge camera hump on the back. However, it seems as though the back of the Moto Z Play will be made of either plastic or glass instead of aluminum. Let’s hope it’s glass.

And of course, with Motorola’s current focus on modularity, it wouldn’t make sense if the Moto Z Play didn’t support Moto Mod accessories. As you can see in the leaked images, the back of the device feature similar connector dots that we saw in the Moto Z and the Moto Z Force.

With it being a mid-ranger, the Moto Z Play may be the answer to the future of modular phones. One of the concerns with the Moto Z – or any other modular phone for that matter – is that modular accessories are simply way too expensive. If the phone itself is cheaper, however, perhaps consumers will be more inclined to cough up a few hundred dollars.
