Chipset Insights

TheTechOutlook was the first to notice the Geekbench listing, which shows that the phone is equipped with an octa-core processor. This processor includes two high-performance cores running at 2.6GHz and six efficiency cores operating at 2.0GHz. The GPU is identified as IMG BXM-8-256, indicating that it may utilize a MediaTek chipset.

Potential Specifications

This combination of CPU and GPU closely matches the Dimensity 7025, although the Dimensity 7025 features a prime core with a lower clock speed of 2.2GHz. Hence, it’s possible that the Moto G56 5G could be powered by a different or even a new processor entirely.

The device was benchmarked with 8GB of RAM and Android 15, achieving a single-core score of 1039 and a multi-core score of 2396. Apart from these figures, the Geekbench listing doesn’t provide much additional information.

Color Options and Pricing

Earlier leaks indicate that the Moto G56 5G will be available in Black, Blue, and Dill (Light Green) hues. The pricing details have also emerged ahead of the specifications. The 8GB + 256GB variant is anticipated to retail for €250 (approximately ₹23,675).

This marks the first time the phone has appeared on any benchmark or certification platform. Therefore, we may need to wait a few more months before it officially launches. The previous model was unveiled last September, so the G56 5G could follow a similar schedule.

While Motorola hasn’t confirmed any details yet, based on past experiences, it’s likely that more leaks will surface as the launch date approaches.
