One of Motorola’s most interesting devices in ages holds no more cosmetic secrets and is clearly inching closer to an official announcement.
Initially presumed to be eyeing a 2026 release, Motorola’s somewhat predictable but nonetheless exciting alternative to the razor-thin Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge and Apple iPhone Air is looking more and more likely to see daylight by the end of this year, at least in China.
Because Evan Blass explicitly calls the super-slim device leaked today in a 30-second video by the latter name, I’ll assume that we are indeed looking at the «international» Edge 70 here rather than the China-exclusive X70 Air model Motorola officially teased earlier this week ahead of a full October announcement.
If that’s the case and Blass managed to get his hands on official promotional material for the Motorola Edge 70 already, the chances of seeing the phone take on the aforementioned Galaxy S25 Edge and iPhone Air in countries like India, various European markets, and perhaps even the US in 2025 are all of a sudden pretty solid.
Now, you have to remember that the «regular» Edge 70 is widely expected to follow in the footsteps of the Edge 60 with mid-range specifications and an affordable price, although if this device is in the pipeline, higher-end Pro and Ultra variants could also be coming relatively soon.
While there are no reasons to question the legitimacy of the promo video leaked by Evan Blass due to the weight of that name in the mobile tech journalism space, we’re clearly dealing with an unfinished version of the clip lacking both sound and the text typically used by companies like Motorola to build excitement over their latest products.
