The Moto Z2 Force is going to be unveiled next week on July 25 at an event held in New York. The Moto Z2 Force is successor to last year’s Moto Z Force, and, like it’s predecessor, the Moto Z2 Force will come with ShatterShield technology. However, according to a latest report, it will be shipping with a battery smaller than the one on Moto Z Force.
According to a report by Evan Blass from VentureBeat, the Moto Z2 Force will ship with a battery 22% smaller than the one on the Moto Z Force. To be more precise, the Moto Z2 Force will come with a 2730 mAh battery. For those unaware, the Z Force came with a 3500 mAh battery.
Well, the reduction in the battery size is due to Motorola’s decision to make the phone thinner. This is something that Motorola did with the Moto Z2 Play as well. The company has been making its phones thinner at the cost of battery size, probably to reduce the overall weight after a Moto Mod is attached.
Apart from that, the Moto Z2 Force will come with 6 GB RAM and 64 GB internal storage, however, people in the US will have to settle with 4 GB RAM. Besides, customers in China will be treated with 6 GB RAM variant having 128 GB of storage on board.
Having said that, the Moto Z2 Force will come with Snapdragon 835 SoC under the hood, a 5.5-inch QHD ShatterShield Super AMOLED display, 12 MP dual camera at the back and a 5 MP camera on the front. Also, the Moto Z2 Force won’t come with any IP rating, but, it will still boast water-repellent nano-coating.
