That's right, folks. Motorola has revealed the much teased Moto G6 series lineup that was held at an event in Brazil, South America. Introducing the Moto G6, Moto G6 Plus and the Moto G6 Play. Most of the tech-specs that we reported before matches the speculations, so we will recap them just to refresh your memory.
But before we get into that, perhaps the highlight of the phone is the price tag itself.

On paper, there isn't a lot of exciting features to look at, but it's nice to see the new Moto series going an 18:9 screen-to-body aspect ratio. Motorola is dubbing this as the MAX Vision and yes, it's just a fancy name for Full View (lol). Both the Moto G6 and Moto G6 Plus phones are using 3D glass (Corning Gorilla 3 grade, in fact) for the back and front to give that premium feel, whereas the Moto G6 Play is sporting a polymer glass, which explains why it's the cheapest among the three.
According to the event, the Moto G6 and Moto G6 Play will only hit the shelves in the first week of May in the USA, while the Moto G6 Plus will come at a later date. No word for Malaysia's entry but we are guessing the second quarter of 2018.
