Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ Cameras are getting upgrades!

The biggest confirmed feature of the Edge 70 Pro+ is its 50MP periscope telephoto rear camera. Motorola says the phone will support up to 50x AI Super Zoom Pro, backed by moto AI enhancements. Interestingly, the company is also calling it one of the category’s thinnest periscope implementations. Usually, phones with periscope lenses end up having bulky camera modules, but Motorola appears to be trying a slimmer approach here. The telephoto setup is also expected to support an 85mm focal length along with optical image stabilisation, which should help in portrait shots and zoom stability.

Apart from the telephoto sensor, Motorola has also confirmed a 50MP primary rear camera using the Sony LYT-710 sensor. The company says the main sensor is paired with 3.5-degree optical image stabilisation to improve low-light photography and reduce shaky shots. Well, the details about the third sensor are still under wraps.

Motorola Edge 70 Pro+: What else to expect

Apart from the cameras, Motorola is also experimenting with finishes and materials. The company has confirmed three Pantone-inspired colour variants: 

• Pantone Chicory Coffee
• Pantone Stormy Sea
• Pantone Zinfandel

Moreover, the Edge 70 Pro+ appears to feature a quad-curved display, slim bezels, and a centre punch-hole selfie camera. At the back, there is a square-shaped camera module with a flat rear panel with centred Motorola branding. There also seems to be an additional button on the left side, although Motorola hasn’t explained its function yet.

In addition to these, the reports suggest the Edge 70 Pro+ could feature a 6.7-inch or 6.8-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate. It may also get wireless charging support. However, the final hardware details and pricing will only be confirmed during the official launch event next week.
