Moto G5 Plus design

The new design is mostly in line with the original design of the Moto G. That is a plastic phone with metal on the sides. And we still have the round edges. But the difference comes in the home button. Unlike the G4, the G5 Plus features a traditional rectangular home button.Rumors are that the home button will feature fingerprint sensor. And on the back, the pill-shaped camera panel is gone. The G5 now has a circular camera panel, which makes the phone look more sleek and elegant. The camera panel is the home for the lens and dual-LED flash. Another thing that is clear from the render is the Moto logo below the camera, which might be in silver color.

Moto G5 Plus Price Rumors

The phone should be revealed at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. So far, we’ve come across prices of $350 to $400 for the G5 Plus. Those reports come from a Romanian website. However, considering that the G4 Plus costs $200 at the moment, the $400 price tag is a bit too much. Something in the line of $250 to $300 is probably the most accurate price range. After all, it is a mid-tier price phone.
