Lenovo's new flagship to be called Moto Z

Lenovo has filed a trademark for Moto Z, indicating that this will be the name for its upcoming line of flagship handsets.

The filing, according to DroidLife, applies to "mobile phones, smartphones and accessories therefore, namely battery chargers and adapters." This indicates that Lenovo has a new smartphone to announce in the very near future.

Serial tipster Evan Blass suggested this may well be the case. “Goodbye Moto X, hello Moto Z,” he tweeted last week.

Lenovo is expected to unveil its new range at its Tech World event on June 9. There are reports that there will be two devices, called Moto Z Style and Moto Z Play. VentureBeat reports that modular backplates will be sold separately allowing users to jazz up their handset’s sound or camera features.

Stay tuned for more news on June 9.
