After days of teasing its arrival, Lenovo-owned Motorola has finally revealed that the company will launch a new product this week. The Canadian arm of Motorola confirmed the news on Twitter. "Guess what?! We're announcing the next bold phone from Motorola on June 1st," the company said in the tweet.
However, no hint has been provided about which Moto series mobile is coming on Thursday. In the last few weeks, a series of leaks have taken place regarding the Moto E4 series and the Moto Z2 Play, in the form of raw photos, retail box and promotional graphic images on social media platforms. So it is widely believed that one of the aforementioned devices will make a debut tomorrow.
