Motorola would launch Moto G Forte with improved durability than the Moto G for Latin America. Popular leakster @evleaks has posted an image of the smartphone from @evleaksES account. Motorola unveiled the Moto G back in November last year and the dual SIM variant was launched in India last month. The Motorola Moto G has Corning Gorilla Glass protection to protect the screen from scratches and the some videos even showed it can survive in water for 30 minutes even though Motorola doesn't call it water-resistant. According to the leaked image, Moto G Forte has a huge casing to protect the sides. So it could be dust proof, shock proof and water-resistant. There are possibilities that this could also be an image of Moto G with a grip cover. It is not clear if the Moto G Forte would have a removable back cover like the Moto G. We still don't have specifications of the device, but it expected to be similar to the Moto G.

The new HTC One comes with a similar 4 UltraPixel unit on its back, but it comes with a 2MP companion camera on top of it.

But can a newer brand like Gionee instill confidence in the high end consumer, with its hardware and software package? Lets find out in our Gionee Elife E7 Review.
