Motorola has officially unveiled the Edge 70 on its global website, confirming the device’s full specifications and design. Serving as the international counterpart to the X70 Air, the Edge 70 combines a premium build, minimalist software experience, and high-resolution cameras—all packed into one of the slimmest smartphone bodies on the market.
A Slim Profile With Premium Materials
Measuring just 6mm thick, the Edge 70 stands out as one of the thinnest smartphones in its category. Its dimensions—160mm in height and 74mm in width—are paired with a lightweight frame of 159 grams, making it roughly 20 grams lighter than its predecessor, the Edge 60. The chassis is crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, while the front is protected by Gorilla Glass 7i.
The rear panel features a nylon-textured finish and comes in three Pantone-certified color options: Gadget Grey, Lilly Pad, and Bronze Green. The device also meets partial MIL-STD 810H durability standards, adding a layer of ruggedness to its sleek form.
Display That Delivers
On the front, users will find a 6.67-inch pOLED display with a resolution of 2712 x 1220 pixels and a refresh rate of 120Hz. The screen is Pantone-validated, ensuring accurate color reproduction and consistent visual quality. With support for HDR10+ and a peak brightness of 4500 nits, the Edge 70 is built for immersive viewing in any lighting condition.
Performance Backed by Snapdragon
Under the hood, the Edge 70 is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor, built on a 4nm architecture. It’s paired with 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of internal storage. Running Android 16 with Motorola’s custom UI, the device promises smooth multitasking and responsive performance, even with its ultra-thin profile.
Triple 50MP Camera Setup
Photography is a major highlight of the Edge 70. The rear camera array includes two 50MP sensors: a wide-angle lens with f/1.8 aperture and a 24mm focal length, and an ultrawide lens with f/2.0 aperture and 120-degree field of view. Both lenses support phase detection autofocus. On the front, a third 50MP camera handles selfies and video calls, offering sharp detail and vibrant color accuracy.
Battery Life and Charging
Despite its slim build, the Edge 70 houses a 4,800 mAh silicon-carbon battery. Motorola claims the device can deliver up to 29 hours of video playback, 66 hours of music, and 8 hours of continuous 4K recording. Charging options include 68W wired fast charging and 15W wireless charging.
Pricing and Extras
The Edge 70 is priced at approximately $923 for the 12GB RAM and 512GB storage variant. Buyers will also receive one complimentary accessory, which could be a Moto Tag, Moto Buds Loop, Moto Watch Fit, or a 68W TurboPower charger—depending on availability and region.
