Here’s the Moto G6 and E5 series’ specs and Canadian availability

Lenovo, the owner of the Moto brand, has just announced its latest midrange and low-tier mid-range devices, the Moto G6 and Moto E5 series.

The company officially unveiled the Moto G6, Moto G6 Play, Moto E5 Play and the Moto E5 Plus at an event in São Paulo, Brazil.

The smartphones are all decidedly midrange to low-end devices and feature 400 series processors. However, appearance and other specs help differentiate between the midrange G6 series and the low-tier midrange/high-tier budget Moto E5 lineup.
