Moto G56 specs leak along with an official-looking render

GSM Arena06-05-2025
Motorola launched the G55 in August of last year, and now it's working on its successor, the unsurprisingly named Moto G56. Its pricing was leaked back in March, and today we get an official-looking render to gawk at along with its full specs.
The G56 has a 6.72-inch 1080x2400 LCD screen with 120 Hz refresh rate, 1,000-nit peak brightness, and Gorilla Glass 7i on top, a 50 MP main camera with f/1.8 aperture using Sony's Lytia LYT-600 sensor, an 8 MP ultrawide with f/2.2 aperture, and a 32 MP front-facing camera with f/2.2 aperture.
It's powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7060 SoC, paired with 4/8GB of RAM and 128/256GB of storage. Keeping the lights on is a 5,200 mAh battery with support for 33W wired charging. The phone has stereo speakers, IP68 and IP69 certifications for dust and water resistance, MIL-STD-810H certification for ruggedness and durability, and microSD card support.
It measures 165.75 x 76.26 x 8.35 mm and weighs 200g. It runs Android 15 and will get one major Android update for the 4GB RAM version and two major Android updates for the 8GB RAM variant, with three years of security updates (4GB model), and four years of security updates for the 8GB iteration - in both cases these will be bi-monthly.
So, compared to the G55, the G56 has a larger screen, a higher-res selfie camera, and a 200 mAh bigger battery. The G56 will be offered in Pantone Black Oyster, Pantone Gray Mist, Pantone Dazzling Blue, and Pantone Dill. Motorola Moto G55

OnePlus 15 might trick you into believing you'll get a killer display, but beware of the downgrade

OnePlus 15 Can you spot the difference between higher and lower refresh rate?

One of the key upgrades appears to be on the display, which may have a higher refresh rate, but at the price of a worse resolution. OnePlus 15 may feature a 165Hz refresh rate display, according to the latest information shared (source in Chinese) by the leaker Digital Chat Station. However, the smoother display may also have a lower resolution and utilize a 1.5K the improved refresh rate of the display, OnePlus might also be developing a new performance engine for the device. That could allow theto run games at 165 FPS, which would match the display's refresh the same leak, Digital Chat Station says the device will have a new super black color, which may be called Moon Rock Black. Earlier rumors claimed that it would be a brand-new type of black, which would look more black than other already heard that themay have a lower-resolution display than the. The new flagship is expected to have a 6.78-inch 1.5K display, which would be slightly smaller than the 6.82-inch 2K screen on the. We've also heard that OnePlus might have tested a higher refresh rate leading smartphone companies are lagging behind some Chinese devices, which already offer higher specs, including displays with a higher refresh rate. The leading ultra-flagships, such as the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra iPhone 16 Pro , and Pixel 9 Pro , support up to 120Hz. However, the vanilla iPhone 16 supports only 60Hz, which is probably the most baffling spec on an Apple beyond 120Hz refresh rate might sound good on paper, but I wouldn't get too excited about such a feature. The leading smartphones are already smooth enough, and mobile gaming isn't a good enough reason to look for such specs.

Even as a foldable skeptic, I can't recommend the Pixel 9 Pro Fold strongly enough at $700 off

Look, we've had a good run, bravely resisting the foldable "fad" until... it became clear for everyone that these devices are indeed here to stay for years and years to come, but now the time has arrived to surrender to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. $700 off (39%) 5G, Unlocked, 256GB Storage, 16GB RAM, Google Tensor G4 Processor, Android 15, Gemini, 8-Inch Foldable LTPO OLED Display with 2152 x 2076 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 6.3-Inch OLED Cover Screen with 2424 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate, 48 + 10.8 + 10.5MP Triple Rear-Facing Camera System, 10MP Front-Facing Camera, 10MP Cover Camera, 4,650mAh Battery, Obsidian Color Buy at BestBuy That's because Best Buy is now selling the unlocked Pixel 9 Pro Fold with 256GB storage at a simply mind-blowing $700 discount. There are no special requirements, no strings attached, no obligatory upfront activation on any specific US carriers, and to put that number in perspective, the non-foldable Pixel 9 Pro powerhouse currently costs $699. So, yes, you can save the full price of an excellent Google-made device while buying another undeniably powerful, eye-catching, and exceptionally well-reviewed handset. Our in-depth Pixel 9 Pro Fold review, by the way, highlighted a level of functionality, a premium build quality, and a refined design that I never thought would be possible (certainly not so soon) when the deeply flawed first-gen Samsung Galaxy Fold burst onto the scene back in 2019. Of course, Google waited until 2023 to throw its hat in the ring with a surprisingly solid but far from perfect Pixel Fold, and while this second-gen device we're talking about here today is not flawless either, it's definitely moving in the right direction, especially at a lower-than-ever price of $1,099. This is not the world's thinnest foldable device, but it will feel premium in your hand. | Image Credit -- PhoneArena That's obviously not conventionally affordable territory, but you have to remember that this is a product that essentially takes the 6.3-inch screen of the aforementioned Pixel 9 Pro and makes it play second fiddle to a ginormous 8-inch primary display. Now, you wouldn't expect to pay 700 bucks for that, would you? Certainly not when the bendy flagship also comes with five different cameras that are currently making me drool in five different ways over my keyboard, as well as a large... enough 4,650mAh battery, a whopping 16GB RAM paired with that aforementioned 256 gigs of internal storage space, and absolutely unrivaled long-term software support. And yes, I realize an improved Pixel 10 Pro Fold with an even bigger battery is literally 24 hours away from an official announcement, but I hope you also realize that thing's commercial release is not exactly around the corner. Good news everyone! Over the past year we've been working on an exciting passion project of ours and we're thrilled to announce it will be ready to release in just a few short months.

This $1,200 'pocket computer' from 2005 was the foldable of its time

Two decades ago, life and technology felt simpler and more innocent, naive even, but in a heartwarming way. Most of us had way fewer responsibilities than we do today, and phones were still in their golden age. It was Nokia that ruled the regular phone landscape, yet the smartphone space was still the Wild West. Behind closed doors, Android and iOS were both being conceptualized, and we were constantly redefining what a smartphone should be. One of those twenty-year-old smartphones, the cool-sounding HTC Universal (also known as the Qtek 9000), was the lovechild of two iconic tech companies, and it definitely screams 2005 in every way possible. It's also included in our upcoming "Iconic Phones" book, which would sit nicely on your coffee table. JOIN THE WAITLIST TO GET EARLY BIRD DISCOUNTS HERE Actually, calling the HTC Universal a "smartphone" is selling it short, as this device was marketed as a "pocket computer" by both HTC and Microsoft, as it looked the part and featured Windows Mobile 5.0 with multiple desktop PC-grade apps on board. The HTC Universal featured a full QWERTY keyboard, a large-for-the-time swiveling screen (one of its coolest features), and some pretty impressive internals like a 520MHz CPU and 128MB of RAM. It was also the first phone that had a dedicated front camera for 3G video calls. That's an essential and boring feature these days, but back in the day, video calls on a pocket-sized device felt like a cutting-edge novelty or a glimpse into the future for most people. The device also had a chockful of extra ports, buttons, and connectivity standards, which was the norm back in the day. It had a dedicated 3.5mm audio jack, an infrared port for data transfer, many physical buttons for answering and hanging up phone calls and messaging, a camera shutter key, and even a volume slider button. The Universal also had a full-sized SD card slot, a stylus, and even a physical reset button! Another feature that feels awkwardly familiar is the price tag. Back in 2005, the HTC Universal cost $1,200 at launch, which is around $2,000 today when adjusted for inflation. That's what a decent modern foldable phone costs nowadays. If you've ever been as fascinated by the legendary devices from the golden age of mobile phones as much as we are, then our upcoming "Iconic Phones" table book will be a nostalgic deep dive into the world of classic tech.
