The next smartphone coming from Motorola, the Moto M, is expected to be revealed on November 8, along with another Android handset, the Lenovo P2.

The Moto M made quite a few headlines in the last few weeks, so those who've been following the smartphone might already have a pretty good idea of what's to come.

We reported a few days ago about some live pictures of the Moto M, but we have now been given the chance to talk about a new set of press photos showing the upcoming smartphone.

The Moto M seems to be aimed at the mid-range market, though some could say that it packs some high-end specs. Unfortunately, the one thing that could have made the Moto M even more competitive on the market, Android N, hasn't been included.

According to the newest press renders of the Moto M, the smartphone will ship with Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system on board. Hopefully, Motorola will provide an Android 7.0 Nougat update soon after the phone's launch.

When it comes to hardware, the Moto M should perform decent enough, especially that it packs a MediaTek Helio P10 processor accompanied by 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory.

Also, Motorola Moto M sports a 5.5-inch display that supports full HD (1080p) resolution. Photographers will be pleased to know that Motorola added a 16-megapixel camera module on the back, which features PDAF (phase detection autofocus), as well as a secondary 8-megapixel one in the front for selfies and video calls.

Since the Moto M will be launched in China, the smartphone will offer dual-SIM support, but one of the slots can be used for microSD cards. Furthermore, Motorola's device will be powered by a 3,050 mAh battery that's likely to feature fast charging.

The promotional pictures leaked recently confirm the Moto M will feature a fingerprint sensor on the back side, as well as Dolby Atmos audio technology.

Motorola Moto M will be unveiled on November 8, and it should be available in Gold and Silver colors for around $300.
