Motorola is all set to expand its Edge 70 series with the new variant, the Edge 70 Max. The device will hit the retail shelves next week and will be available on popular e-commerce platforms in India. The microsite of the device is already live and has revealed some of the key specifications and look of the device. Just like the Motorola Edge 70 Pro Plus, the Edge 70 Max is also expected to offer flagship level performance, a massive battery, AI features and much more. Here is everything that we know about the upcoming device so far.
The Motorola Edge 70 Max will make its India debut on July 15 at 12PM IST. The smartphone will be available for purchase via Flipkart and the official Motorola India website. While Motorola has not confirmed any price range, the device is expected to be priced at around Rs 50,000. This means it will sit above the Edge 70 Pro Plus in Motorola’s portfolio.
The Motorola Edge 70 Max is tipped to feature a 6.82-inch Quad HD+ LTPO OLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate and a claimed peak brightness of 7,000 nits. The flat-panel design is expected to replace the curved display seen on earlier Edge models.
The device will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset and will be paired with 12GB LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB UFS 4.0 storage. It will also feature a large 5,500mm² vapour chamber along with its ArcticMesh cooling system to improve sustained performance during gaming and heavy workloads. The phone is likely to ship with Android 16 and Motorola’s AI suite, including the Qira assistant.
