Motorola has unveiled its ultra-slim Edge 70 smartphone. Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, the smartphone features a 5.99 mm body and weighs around 159g. With its slim profile, the Edge 70 joins the growing trend of ultra-thin smartphones, following models like Apple’s iPhone Air (5.64mm) and Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge (5.8mm). The Motorola Edge 70 smartphone packs a 4,800mAh battery and comes in three Pantone-validated finishes, namely Lily Pad, Gadget Grey, and Bronze Green.

 

Motorola launched the X70 Air smartphone in China last month with similar specifications, indicating that the Edge 70 is a rebranded version of the same model. The smartphone will be available, starting this week, in select markets across Europe and the Middle East. India availability has not yet been confirmed.
