The unannounced smartphone has a “posted from” label on Weibo, which reveals the Moto Edge X30 moniker. So we can safely assume that the upcoming flagship smartphone is the Moto Edge X30. Moreover, this could be the first phone to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 chipset.
As for the vague teaser, the GM mentions “two panes of Gorilla Glass” and a cool-running “powerful inner core”. Further, the post states that the new phone has Gorilla Glass panels on both sides along with a new processor which offers a powerful core speed, with great performance.

In the comments section of the above-mentioned Weibo post, Jin commented that the upcoming smartphone will be the first device to offer My UI 3.0 experience. This is a stock Android-based UI from Motorola with some nifty customisations features like Moto Actions. Further, the smartphone could come 6.67-inch FHD+ OLED panel that produces a refresh rate of 144Hz. The smartphone could also come with up to 16GB of RAM and 512 GB of onboard storage in China.

We can expect Motorola to announce this smartphone in December though, with Xiaomi also expected to do the same with their 12 series.
