Another day, another set of leaked Moto X+1 images. Today’s pictures are of a “near-final prototype” build of the device and they manage to reveal some new information about the unannounced handset. For starters, the X+1 is said to have a 5.1-inch display, so it’s a little larger than its predecessor. The device doesn’t have any capacitive buttons and has a loudspeaker below its display, similar to the design of the budget-friendly Moto E.

Perhaps listening to consumer requests for high-quality materials, this pre-production build of the Moto X+1 feature an aluminum trim, however the rest of the phone is said to be plastic. Like the Moto X, it appears that the X+1 will support customizations, as this leaked variant features a wooden back panel. Speaking of the device’s backside, those two small opposing dots on its camera module are said to be LED flashes.

In terms of hardware, its been rumored that the Moto X+1 will have a 1080p display, a Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, a 2,900mAh battery, a 12-megapixel rear-facing camera and a 5-megapixel front-facing shooter. We’re less than a month away from the Moto X’s one year anniversary, so Motorola Mobility may soon pull the trigger and announce the X+1. However, the company is currently being acquired by Lenovo, which could easily delay any new product announcements.
