Moto G85 spotted on Geekbench with Snapdragon 4 Gen 3 and 8GB RAM

Motorola unveiled the Moto G84 in August last year and is gearing up to unveil the Moto G85. Judging by the fact that the phone appears in leaks this time of the year, we can expect it to launch earlier than its predecessor. The Moto G85 appeared on the database of European retailers earlier this month. The price of the device was 300 euros. Now, a prototype has escaped the Geekbench benchmark which confirms some interesting details about the phone.

Moto G85 appears on Geekbench with unreleased Snapdragon 4 Gen 3

The Moto G85 spotted on Geekbench sports a Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 3 SoC. This is interesting because the Snapdragon 4 Gen 3 has not been officially announced yet and we know that it may soon succeed the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2. The Geb 2 was the first of the series to use the 4nm manufacturing process. We believe Snapdragon 4 Gen 3 will retain this production design.

The smartphone scored 939 points in the single-core department. As for the multi-core score, the phone scored 2092 points. This is the usual for the low and mid-range categories. However, we don’t expect a performance overhaul on the Snapdragon 4 Gen 3. The chipset is likely to bring quality-of-life improvements over its predecessor. We wouldn’t be surprised to see some AI tweaks as well. We expect Qualcomm to finally reveal this processor soon.

The phone on Geekbench has 8GB of RAM, but given the leaks, we’ll also see a 12GB RAM variant. It’s amazing to see how far the mid-range Moto G-series has come to offer 12GB of RAM. Last but not least, the phone will offer Android 14 from day one.

Unfortunately, details are still scarce when it comes to the smartphone. However, given the leaks, we expect it to arrive pretty soon. We’ll share more details as we find more.
