Moto X40 images from TENAA showed the phone would come with a centre-positioned punch-hole cutout and curved edges. The volume rocker and power button are on the right edge. Moving to the back, you see a square module, which houses the triple camera sensors and an LED flash. There is the iconic Moto dimple in the middle.

Interestingly, the event invite shows one phone has a centre-positioned punch-hole cutout and the other has none, which makes us believe the selfie shooter might be placed under the screen.
