The Moto G5S Plus has suffered a few leaks so far, but none quite as significant as this. Even before the phone has been officially announced, Amazon has outed a lot of details about the device, including a full specs list, pricing, and release date. It should be noted that some of this information – namely pricing and release – is specific only to Italy, though it does give us an idea of when the rest of us can expect it.

According to this Amazon listing, the Moto G5S Plus will be available in two different colors: gray and gold. It's entirely possible that Motorola and Lenovo will launch additional colors through other channels, but for now, those are the two that are listed on Amazon. We also learn that the Moto G5S will cost €300 in Italy, which is roughly USD$350.

Amazon's listing says that this phone will launch on August 18, 2017, and it's even opening up pre-orders for the device. As previously stated, this release date is only for Italy, though it seems reasonable to assume that the Moto G5S Plus will launch in other regions around the world at the end of August or beginning of September.

Beyond release date and pricing, this listing also confirms some key specifications about the phone. Assuming this is accurate, we should see the Moto G5S Plus will launch with a 5.5-inch 1080p display, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, and a 3000mAh battery. The listing also mentions the phone's rumored 13MP dual camera, so for a mid-range device, it seems that this will hold up well.

As always, take the information this listing provides with a grain of salt, remembering that nothing is official until Motorola or Lenovo make it so. If that August 18 release date is accurate, though, then we should be hearing more official details from Motorola soon. Stay tuned.
