Motorola launched the Edge 70 Pro in India on April 22, 2026, with pricing starting at ₹38,999 ($465) and an instant ₹2,000 ($24) bank discount for Axis and HDFC cardholders, while simultaneously teasing a foldable Razr 2026 for global release on April 29.
The Edge 70 Pro features a 6.8-inch Extreme AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate, 5,200 nits peak brightness, and IP68+IP69 water and dust resistance, powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Extreme chipset with up to 12GB RAM and 256GB UFS 4.0 storage.
Camera specifications include a triple rear setup with a 50MP primary sensor, while the device runs Android 16 with Motorola’s Hello UI and promises three years of OS upgrades, alongside MIL-STD 810H durability certification.
Sales begin April 29, with an additional ₹2,000 exchange bonus available, and the phone offered in three Pantone-certified colors: Lilly White, Tea, and Titan.
The Razr 2026 teaser, dated for April 29, suggests a 6.9-inch inner AMOLED foldable display at 120Hz, a cover screen for quick tasks, dual 50MP rear cameras, a 32MP selfie shooter, and a 4,800mAh battery positioned as an upper mid-range foldable.

Motorola’s dual-track strategy — launching a premium 5G slate phone while previewing a foldable — reflects an effort to capture both mainstream and enthusiast segments amid slowing smartphone growth.
The ₹38,999 starting price for the Edge 70 Pro undercuts many competitors with similar specs, while the foldable tease aims to reassert Motorola’s legacy in innovative form factors after years of retreat from the segment.
Conflicting details emerge between sources: the Edge 70 Pro’s chipset is cited as Dimensity 8000 series in one report and Dimensity 8500 Extreme in another, while battery capacity varies between 6,500mAh and unspecified figures, requiring caution in specification reporting.
