Last month, the Motorola Edge S was launched in China and the first range of handsets sold out in a flash sale that lasted two minutes. It is believed that the Motorola Edge S will have the name Motorola G100 when the device is finally introduced worldwide. Meanwhile, the Edge S / G100, powered by the Snapdragon 870 chipset, was recently tested by the Geekbench standards test.
Equipped with 8 GB of memory and working on Android 11, the device delivered a single-core score of 957 and a multi-core score of 2815. The G100 will reportedly be the flagship model for the manufacturer’s “G” line featuring the G10 and G30 budget models. There may be another middle range Motorola G devices on the go, like a G50 and maybe a G70.
