A following tweet dropped hints about the possible use of leather in its design. No details about it, be it hardware internals or software of the device are available as of now but it might be powered by guts which are nothing less powerful than the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 and at least 2 GB of RAM.

It looks like Motorola has found its steam after getting acquired by Google (and then by Lenovo). After the launch of successful smartphones like the Moto X and the Moto G, they've also showcased their first smartwatch, the Moto 360 which is powered by Android for wearables. After the grand success of Moto G in India, Motorola launched the Moto X in India but it has not been as well received in comparison due to the lack of dual SIM card slots and the fact that it was introduced too late to the Indian market. Lenovo understands the importance of dual SIM smartphones in India and if Motorola can release a dual SIM variant of its upcoming flagship smartphone for markets like India and launch it in time, there is no reason why people wouldn't want to buy it.
