There have been multiple leaks in the past for the Motorola Frontier as well. The Motorola Frontier is expected to sport a 6.73-ich pOLED FHD+ 144Hz screen with an in-screen fingerprint scanner, a 60-megapixel front camera, and a triple rear camera setup consisting of a 200-megapixel (main) + 50-megapixel (ultrawide) + 12-megapixel (telephoto) sensors.
