Images of Motorola’s next flagship phone have emerged online, along with a further indication that the company is moving away from its ‘Edge’ branding for a new brand.
Last week, long-time reliable leaker Evan Blass (aka @evleaks) claimed that Motorola’s first non-foldable flagship phone since May 2024 would not be the rumoured Motorola Edge 70 Ultra after all. Instead, the company is producing a new Motorola Signature brand.
We saw some slightly blurry snaps of this smartphone earlier in December, back when we were still calling the phone the Edge 70 Ultra. Now, however, Blass is back with some much clearer shots of Motorola’s Signature device.
Despite the new branding and the ‘Crafted for the visionaries’ tagline (whatever that means), it looks a lot like a Motorola flagship phone, to be honest.
Take the curved display of the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra (the brand’s last flagship phone), but apply the cleaner rear panel of the Motorola Edge 70, and you’d have something akin to the Signature.
It’s impossible to tell until we see the phone side-on, but has Motorola slimmed its flagship offering down a little? It wouldn’t be a surprise, given that the Motorola Edge 70 measured just 5.99mm thin.
These detailed shots, showing the phone in Olive and Carbon, highlight the pleasing material finish that those earlier leaks only hinted at. Motorola’s love of a tactile finish is still on full display, and I’m glad to see it.
Motorola Signature specs
Previous leaks suggest that the Motorola Signature will run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, paired with an impressive 16GB of RAM. This suggests broadly flagship-ish performance, while also hinting at aggressive pricing.
We’ve also heard it said that the phone will be fronted by a 1.5K OLED display, while the camera set-up could include a Sony LYTIA periscope telephoto camera with a 12–71mm focal range.
While we don’t quite buy the leaked marketing line that the Motorola Signature has been “crafted for the visionaries”, we’re looking forward to another handsome flagship from the Lenovo-owned brand.
