When Motorola announced the Moto G (2014) in September, some consumers raised their eyebrows as the company did not include 4G LTE capability in the handset which disappointed some waiting fans. 

An improved Moto G rumored to be released soon will have 4G LTE capability and a longer battery life. Further hints of the imminent release date are the reports that the handset was spotted in Motorola's Brazilian website. The specs sheet published in the website reportedly shows that the handset will also feature a quad-core Snapdragon 400 SoC and 2070 mAh battery capacity. 

The handset will also ship Android 5.0 Lollipop OS out-of-the-box since the update is already rolling out to some Motorola devices. The website also shows that the Moto G will come with 16 GB of storage and dual SIM configuration.

Surprisingly, the website has not revealed the pricing of the device and its shipping dates, but rumors are suggesting that waiting fans will not have to wait longer for the device. 

The handset was first seen in the online benchmarking site Geekbench earlier this year where the handset was listed as "Motorola TBD." The benchmark listed 1 GB of RAM, 4G LTE connectivity, and a quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor as the specs and features of the handset. However, it seems that Moto G has no plans of jumping to 64-bit systems anytime soon. 

This is the same strategy used by Motorola before when it offered the first generation of Moto G. It announced the handset with 3G data connectivity and the 4G LTE version was released after a few months in selected markets. Thus, this guarantees that the 4G LTE-enabled Moto G will be coming soon. 

However, Motorola has yet to confirm the aforementioned rumors. Thus, consumers will have to wait and see whether the company is indeed releasing the device anytime soon.
