Motorola Edge 40 Pro benchmark reveals Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset

Motorola is expected to launch Edge 40 Pro soon in the global markets. Ahead of its launch, the device has made it to several certifications. This time, the smartphone has emerged on the Geekbench portal revealing its chipset under the hood.

The Motorola Edge 40 Pro will be a successor to the Motorola Edge 30 Pro. It is expected to bring a better display, improved cameras, and faster charging speeds.

Motorola Edge 40 Pro passes Geekbench to reveal Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC

The Motorola Edge 40 Pro has made it to Geekbench 5. The benchmark result shows the performance of the smartphone while also revealing its chipset. The device has scored 1480 points in the single-core department and 4889 in the multi-core department.

Under the hood, the device is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC with a maximum clock speed of 3.19GHz. It has 11.00GB of RAM, which translates to 12GB since Geekbench always shows lesser RAM than actual.

Interestingly, the device runs on Android 13 OS out of the box. We expect it to have My UX on top of it with custom Moto apps and support for Moto actions.

Apart from this, there’s nothing else to look at on the Geekbench document. However, rumors suggest that the Edge 40 Pro will likely be a rebranded Moto X40 for the global markets.

The Moto X40 was launched back in December 2022 in China. The device has a 6.7-inch punch-hole OLED display with FHD+ resolution. It has a 165Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ support.
