After lots of teasing and rumours, Motorola has finally announced a new upper tier smartphone, the Edge 70 Pro in India. The smartphone aims to bring some noteworthy features to the table like an impressive battery life with sub-flagship level performance at a price that undercuts most sub-flagship smartphones.
Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ Specifications and Features
Starting with the design, the Edge 70 Pro+'s overall construction looks unmistakably Motorola with the raised camera bump to accommodate the triple-rear camera island, the Motorola logo sitting in a spherical groove at the back and the phone featuring rounded corners all around. The front houses a curved punch-hole display, while the lenses at the back have colour-matched glossy rings, elevating the design.
Coming to the display, the Edge 70 Pro+ brings a 6.8-inch 1.5K 144 Hz Extreme AMOLED display with 5,200 nits of peak brightness. The panel sports a 96.8% screen-to-body ratio and covers 100% of DCI-P3 colour space. It also features eye care and SGS Blue Light Reduction and is protected by Gorilla Glass 7i.
Performance is handled by MediaTek's latest Dimensity 8500 Extreme chipset. It is complemented by up to 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256 GB UFS 4.1 storage. Software-wise, the phone comes with Android 16 features out of the box, and Motorola promises up to 3 years of OS upgrades and 5 years of security patches.
Optics-wise, the rear boasts a 50 MP Sony LYTIA 710 main sensor, the same sensor used in the Motorola Edge 2026 that was announced in the US recently. The secondary sensor is a 50 MP ultrawide unit, while the third is a 50 MP periscope telephoto lens with up to 3.5x Optical Zoom. The front punch-hole houses a 50 MP snapper for selfies.
Fueling the internals is a 6,500mAh Silicon-Carbon battery, which is supported by 90W fast charging and 15W wireless charging. There's 10W reverse wireless charging and 5W reverse wired charging too. The phone also packs great endurance with IP68/69 ratings and MIL-STD-810H military certification. That said, there's an in-display fingerprint scanner and dual-stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos.
Connectivity-wise, the phone comes with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.4. There's support for dual-SIM, with one physical and one eSIM. The phone also supports wireless payments via NFC and comes with a USB 2.0 Type-C port for charging and data transfers.
