We're just a few days away from Motorola's May 13 event, where the company is expected to unveil its "made to last [and] priced for all" smartphone. However, it seems like we are going to keep seeing new leaks and placeholder listings right up until the last minute.

The latest in the series is three mysterious Moto devices listed on Motorola's US side, in what are probably placeholder listings with corresponding pricing. These are the Moto 3G Global 4GB; Moto 4G Global, and Moto 4G Global, first reported by Mobiflip. 103k19

Further, all the three alleged Moto G devices are listed with prices: Moto 3G Global 4GB ($179, 4GB); Moto 4G Global ($179), and a Moto 4G Global ($189). All the three unnamed Moto devices appears to come bundled with a carrier, as the devices are listed to not include a SIM card.

The listing pages on the Motorola's site appear in the form of what seems to be a placeholder page on Motorola.com (US) and include no other details about specifications.

Looking at the pricing, the newly listed Moto 3G Global and 4G Global smartphones may very well be the successors to the Moto G, also expected to be launched soon.

In addition, we also heard some more about the company's next budget smartphone, thought to be dubbed Moto E, which was spotted in a listing on the Zauba import/ export website with model name 'XT1022'.

Previous leaks suggest that the alleged Moto E will come with a 4.3-inch display, a 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor paired with 1GB of RAM, 5-megapixel rear camera, 4GB inbuilt storage and a 1900mAh battery capacity.

It's worth mentioning that until now we have been seeing unintentional listings of the alleged Motorola's US site.

Notably, Motorola back in February had tipped that the next version of customisation colours of the alleged Moto X successor were leaked by the tipster.

Another report noted a new handset, speculated to be the Moto X's successor, codenamed Motorola XT912A, whose specifications surfaced online in a benchmark result listing.
