Premium smartphone category in India is becoming increasingly competitive, and Motorola has also geared up for an entry into the market with the soon-to-launch Motorola Edge 70 Pro+. The upcoming smartphone has been revealed as the most premium variant of the Moto Edge 70 series, one that sits above the already available Moto Edge 70 Pro. As preparations for the launch begin, Motorola has already started giving away key information about the smartphone by teasing on its India microsite.

The Edge series from Motorola has gained popularity over the years owing to its provision of stylish and almost flagship smartphones at fairly competitive prices. But now with the Edge 70 Pro+ line, Motorola seems to be targeting those who prefer premium cameras and flagship-like aesthetics.

Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ Camera Features Revealed

The new camera array included in the latest Moto smartphone is one of its most important innovations. In fact, the new smartphone will have a triple-lens setup with a flagship 50MP Sony LYT-710 sensor at the center of it. In addition, Moto will also provide its smartphone with support for optical image stabilization with a 3.5-degree angle.

Another feature that has been highly promoted in regards to the phone is the zooming capability. The new phone will offer up to 50x digital zoom along with the company’s Super Zoom Pro technology. Although these numbers may look very high in theory, what is important is that there is a dedicated periscope telephoto camera of 50MP with 3.5x optical zoom.

That is an enormous improvement compared to the Motorola Edge 70 Pro as it does not have any periscope lens dedicated for zooming. With the new smartphone users may take portraits with better background blur and facial details, along with sharper long-range pictures and video footage.

The periscope camera can also make the phone attractive for people who travel and those interested in wildlife photography as an improvement in the zoom capabilities of a top-end mid-range phone. Motorola seems to be marketing the Edge 70 Pro+ as a photography-centric phone in their Edge range.

Premium Design With Pantone-Inspired Colours

Regarding the design, the Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ is quite similar to the Edge 70 Pro model, where one will find the curved edges of the display, centrally located punch-hole selfie camera, and the square rear camera unit on the top-left side. The Motorola brand logo stays the same centrally located on the back.

But the difference between the two models comes down to different finishes that Motorola wants to offer. According to the sources, the smartphone will be available in three colours that include:

• Pantone Chicory Coffee - sculpted wood-like finish

• Pantone Stormy Sea - twill-like texture

• Pantone Zinfandel - satin luxury finish

This information indicates that Motorola continues developing its strategy of offering something unique for the device exterior, which is related not only to colour but also unique material textures.

Additional Custom Button Hints at AI Features

Other exciting things about the design of the Edge 70 Pro+ include the inclusion of another button on the left side of the device. While Motorola hasn’t disclosed any information regarding the use of this button, some people believe that this button can be related to AI shortcuts.

In the recent past, there has been a trend of introducing AI and shortcut buttons in the latest Android phones to activate voice assistants, camera functions, and other productivity apps instantly. It would be quite logical for Motorola to adopt a similar approach in designing the new Edge 70 Pro+.

Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ Could Target Premium Mid-Range Buyers

It seems that the Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ is specifically intended for those customers who seek for high-end capabilities without having to pay for the top-of-the-line phone. This model can become a competitor for phones such as the Realme 16 Pro+, among others, which will be launched by other manufacturers this year.

With the help of the additional periscope camera module, premium textures, and potentially AI-specific capabilities, Motorola is likely trying to make a difference by focusing on design and not just specs. The Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ is also a phone that can appeal to people who were intrigued by the Edge 70 Pro but required more flexibility of the camera system in the form of a zoom lens.

From what has been revealed till now, it is safe to say that the Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ might turn out to be a significant step up from the Motorola Edge 70 Pro. Just the inclusion of a 50MP periscope telephoto camera itself may mean a lot for a photography enthusiast.

Pantone-inspired color options also add to the visual appeal of the device that would compete in a very competitive segment. With a good software experience from Motorola along with premium styling, the Edge 70 Pro+ might be quite an enticing choice in the premium mid-range segment.

But it remains to be seen how much will the device cost and which hardware components like processor, battery and charging specifications will be included in it. Buyers should always wait for full reviews of such devices along with real camera performance before buying anything. But if the device ends up having a competitive price point in India, then the smartphone will be a rather interesting choice in the next few weeks.
