Latest Moto Z2 Force leak reveals phone will have a headphone jack

Lenovo might introduce a new phone dubbed Moto Z2 Force.

The phone would be a successor to last year’s Moto Z Force, a version of the Moto Z. It’s thicker and sports a longer battery life, higher-resolution camera, and a shatterproof display. Now, days after photos of the second-generation Z Force leaked, Android Authority has shared more renders and detailed what we can expect from the upcoming smartphone, including that it will have a headphone jack.

Neither the Moto Z nor the Moto Z Force have a 3.5mm headphone socket. Instead, they offer a USB Type-C connection for audio, data, and charging. Both are however compatible with the Moto Mod accessories. The Z2 Force will not only have a headphone jack but will also support last year’s Moto Mods, as the connectors are in the same place. It’ll also be thinner than its predecessor, at 5.9mm thick
