Motorola rebrands the Moto G8 as the Moto G Fast for the US, Moto G Stylus as the Moto G Pro for Europe

Motorola has had a busy 2020 so far. The company already returned to the flagship market with the Motorola Edge and Edge+, plus the Motorola G Power, G Stylus, and the G8 Power Lite, to name a few. Next up appears to be a pair of rebranded phones for the US and Europe, the Moto G Fast and Moto G Pro.

We’ll start with the Moto G Pro, which was officially announced for Europe earlier today. This is a rebranded Moto G Stylus, which was announced back in February for North America. The Moto G Pro has a 6.4-inch FHD+ display, Snapdragon 665 SoC, 4GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and triple rear cameras. The device has a 4,000mAh battery and ships with Android 10 (Android One). The G Pro, of course, retains the Stylus’ pen input. If pricing is similar, the G Pro should cost around $300.

The Moto G Fast, on the other hand, has not been officially announced yet. Motorola prematurely leaked the device in a YouTube video, which it has been known to do. Earlier evidence from XDA’s Mishaal Rahman pointed at the Moto G Fast being a rebranded Moto G8, and that certainly appears to be the case based on the video.

The Moto G8 was announced in March for Latin America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Assuming it’s the same device, the Moto G Fast will have a 6.4-inch HD+ display, Snapdragon 665 SoC, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage. It also has triple rear cameras, a 4,000mAh battery, and Android 10. The G8 launched for around $280-$23, so we should see similar pricing when the Moto G Fast is announced.
