“The list of smartphones that are expected to launch”

Moto G6 / G6 Play

This is the sixth iteration of Motorola’s highly-successful G series, and features three phones, the G6, the G6 Plus and the G6 Play. The Plus variant may not be made available in India, but the G6 with its 5.7-inch, 18:9 FHD+ display looks like quite an attractive option. It will be powered by a Snapdragon 450 chipset and features a dual-camera setup at the rear consisting of a 12MP snapper and a 5MP secondary unit.

The Moto G6 Play on the other hand, is a relatively cheaper device which sports a plastic exterior as opposed to the glass casing of the G6. It also has an 18:9 display which measures 5.7-inches diagonally, but its resolution is only 1,440 x 720 pixels. Another exclusion is that of dual cameras at the rear, as the phone offers a single 13MP primary shooter. But the main draw of the Moto G6 Play is its 4,000mAh battery, which promises up to 36 hours of usage.

Xiaomi Redmi S2 / Y2

The smartphone features a tall 5.99-inch display with a resolution of 1,440 x 720 pixels. Another highlight is its 12MP + 5MP dual-camera array at the back, and a 16MP front snapper for high-resolution selfies. The Snapdragon 625 chipset can be found inside it along with 3 or 4GB of RAM. The smartphone is set to launch on June 7th.

ASUS ZenFone 5

We’re hopeful that June is the month that will end the wait for this smartphone. This handset will be a strong contender in the mid-range segment. The notch-toting 6.2-incher boasts AI attributes that not only detect several scenarios but also learn from the photos you click. It comes with a pair of snappers at the rear, comprising a 12-megapixel primary camera and an 8MP wide-angle camera.

LG G7 ThinQ

It’s got a 6.1-inch display that offers a resolution of 3,120 x 1,440 pixels with an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. It indeed bears a notch up top, but you can easily turn it into a black bar. At the back, the phone comes with dual 16MP cameras that offer a wide-angle mode just like LG’s previous flagships. On the front of this device rests an 8MP selfie camera with a wide f/1.9 aperture.

HTC U12+

If there’s a phone that can spin HTC’s fortunes, it’s the HTC U12+. The phone brings in a lot of innovative features such as a translucent back, pressure sensitive buttons and Edge Sense 2.0 which also supports gestures along with the ability to squeeze to trigger certain actions. The smartphone is also a powerhouse, as it comes equipped with an octa-core Snapdragon 845 processor and 6GB of RAM. The phone’s window to the world is a 6-inch edge-to-edge panel with a resolution of 2,880 x 1,440 pixels and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 coating.
