Motorola is set to launch a new tablet soon, the Moto Pad 70 Groove, which is equipped with nine JBL speakers, including three woofers. Motorola is already giving a sneak peek of the tablet on a teaser website.

Motorola has published a teaser website on the Indian online store Flipkart that offers a first look at the Motorola Moto Pad 70 Groove ahead of the tablet’s official launch on July 31. The tablet stands out primarily because of a massive speaker on the back, which is said to house a total of nine drivers.

These include four tweeters, three woofers, and two passive radiators. The speakers have been optimized by the audio experts at JBL. According to Motorola, the tablet supports Hi-Res Audio Wireless and 7.2 surround sound. A fold-out ring allows the tablet to be propped up when used as a Bluetooth speaker or for video streaming. Dedicated volume buttons on the back let you adjust the volume.
 


While Motorola has not yet confirmed any specific details about the Moto Pad 70 Groove’s specifications, it is likely to be a rebranded version of the Lenovo Tab Plus Gen 2 with Motorola branding and a new color. This mid-range tablet features a 12.1-inch IPS display with a resolution of 2,560 x 1,600 pixels, a refresh rate of 120 Hz, and a brightness of 800 nits.

The tablet is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 7400 with four ARM Cortex-A78 performance cores and four Cortex-A55 efficiency cores. The 10,200 mAh battery can be charged via USB-C at up to 45 watts. A 13-megapixel main camera, an 8-megapixel selfie camera, a microSD slot, and stylus support round out the features of the Lenovo Tab Plus Gen 2. However, due to its sound system, the tablet is comparatively thick and heavy at 22.7 millimeters and 760 grams.
