Motorola has announced that on July 28 there will be a launching event on their new devices. Rumor has it that the Moto G and Moto X 2015 will be presented on that day.

The launch will be held in Sao Paulo, New York and London as stated in the announcement from Motorola.

The statement mentioned that the company will have "a better mobile relationship" coming. With this message, it has been speculated that new phones will be arriving.

There may be no further details as to which of the Motorola devices will be featured in the event, but the invitation has provided some hints as to what consumers will be expecting.

For instance, TechWorm noted that the invitation contains the letters, "XOX," as in "hugs and kisses," but looking at the letters closely, it appears that the "O" was written like a "G."

This provided clues that the launch could feature a third-generation Moto G and two third-generation Moto X devices.

It was previously rumored that Moto G 2015 will be launched on the same date. The phone is expected to have a 5-inch HD display and a Snapdragon 410 chipset.

As reported in Pocketnow.com, the device will also be waterproof and will have two variants — 1GB RAM with 8GB storage capacity and 2GB RAM with 16GB of storage.

On the other hand, Moto X 2015 was rumored to feature a 5.2-inch display and a Snapdragon 810. It was also reported that the device will have a powerful battery and an upgraded camera.

News that Moto X will have a larger version, called Moto X Plus, also circulated and this device is said to have a 5.7-inch display.

PhoneArena reports that Moto X and Moto G 2015 will be the first handsets from Motorola influenced by Lenovo.

A week from now, Motorola will host the event, but until then, people will just have to keep their guesses coming.
