Motorola Edge 70 launched as the global version of X70 Air – 6mm thick with a 6,800mAh battery

Motorola has quietly added the Edge 70 to its official Polish and German websites, revealing all its specs. This makes it almost an official announcement, and fans are excited to finally see what this slim beauty has to offer.

The Motorola Edge 70 is the global version of the China-only Motorola X70 Air. Until now, no one knew if both phones would have the same features, but now it’s confirmed that they do.

Design and Colors

The Edge 70 comes in three stunning Pantone-certified colors – Gadget Grey, Lilly Pad, and Bronze Green. Each color has a nylon-textured back that feels unique to the touch. The phone’s frame is made from aircraft-grade aluminum, giving it both strength and lightness. The front is protected by Gorilla Glass 7i, making it tough against scratches.

This phone has also passed some MIL-STD 810H durability tests, which means it can handle small drops or rough use better than most slim phones.

Size and Weight

The most eye-catching part of the Motorola Edge 70 is how thin it is. The phone is only 6mm thick and weighs just 159 grams. To give you an idea, it’s about 20 grams lighter than the Motorola Edge 60. Despite being so slim, it still manages to pack powerful specs inside.

Here’s a quick look at its dimensions:

Hardware and Performance

Inside, the Motorola Edge 70 runs on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor, paired with 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM. That’s plenty of power for multitasking, gaming, and daily use. It comes with Android 16 along with Motorola’s custom software layer, which adds a clean and simple interface.

Battery and Charging

Because it’s such a slim phone, Motorola had to make a few trade-offs with the battery. The Edge 70 has a 4,800mAh battery, which might sound small compared to other phones, but Motorola promises impressive battery life.

They claim up to 29 hours of video playback, 66 hours of music, 8 hours of 4K video recording, and 10 hours of social media use. A leak even suggested the phone could last up to 50 hours on a single charge in typical use.

Charging won’t be an issue either. The phone supports 68W wired charging and 15W wireless charging, so you can juice it up quickly.

Display Quality

On the front, you get a 6.67-inch pOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The resolution is 2712×1220 pixels, giving you sharp visuals whether you’re watching videos or scrolling through social media. The screen is also Pantone validated, meaning the colors look accurate and natural.

Camera Setup

Motorola packed the Edge 70 with strong camera features despite its slim frame. It has two cameras on the back, both with 50MP sensors. One is a 24mm wide-angle lens with an f/1.8 aperture, and the other is a 12mm ultrawide with f/2.0 and PDAF support.

On the front, there’s another 50MP camera for selfies and video calls. Whether you’re shooting photos or videos, you can expect bright and detailed results.

Storage and Price

The Motorola Edge 70 comes in one model – 12GB RAM with 512GB of storage. That’s more than enough for most users, even if you take lots of photos and videos.

The price is set at €800, and Motorola is even adding a nice gift for buyers. You can choose between a Moto Tag, Moto Buds Loop, Moto Watch Fit, or a 68W TurboPower charger as a free bonus.

Final Thoughts

The Motorola Edge 70 stands out because of its ultra-thin design and solid performance. It’s light, stylish, and packed with features that make it a strong mid-range flagship. The battery could have been bigger, but Motorola balanced it well with fast charging and smart software.

If you want a phone that’s elegant, light, and still powerful, the Edge 70 is definitely worth checking out.
