Motorola‘s Edge 50 series has been making waves with the Pro and Ultra variants, but budget-conscious buyers might be excited to learn about a possible vanilla Edge 50 on the horizon.
This information comes from recent sightings of the phone on certification websites like TDRA, FCC, and EEC (via TheTechOutlook). The model number XT2407-1 keeps popping up, hinting at a new addition to the Edge family.
While full specs remain under wraps, the FCC listing reveals some interesting details. The battery model number suggests a capacity around 5,000 mAh. Even better, the charger model points towards 68W fast charging.
Software-wise, expect Android 14 with Motorola’s Hello UI on top. NFC support for contactless payments and likely WiFi 6 connectivity are also on the table.
The phone’s design and official launch date are still a mystery. However, with certifications piling up, a July release seems like a possibility. To give you a better idea of what you can expect from the Motorola Edge 50, here are the specifications of its predecessor.
Motorola Edge 40 specs:
The Motorola Edge 40, released in May last year, boasts a 6.55-inch P-OLED curved-edge display with FHD+ resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. It features an under-display fingerprint scanner and runs on Android 13 OS. The device includes a 32-megapixel front-facing camera and a rear camera setup with a 50-megapixel primary sensor with OIS and a 13-megapixel ultra-wide lens that doubles as a macro shooter.
Powered by the Dimensity 8020 chipset, the Edge 40 comes with 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM and a 4,400mAh battery supporting 68W wired and 15W wireless charging. Additional features include 256 GB of internal storage, dual stereo speakers, Ready For support, and an IP68-rated chassis.
We can expect the Edge 50 to come with upgraded camera sensors and a more powerful processor than the Dimensity 8020. The recently launched Motorola Edge 50 Fusion device uses a 50-megapixel Sony LYT-700C primary camera sensor and a Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 processor.
