Motorola Edge 70 could challenge iPhone Air in ultra-thin race
Motorola might be preparing its sleekest smartphone yet. Leaks suggest the Motorola Edge 70 will take aim at the iPhone Air and Galaxy S25 Edge with a form factor under 6 mm thick.
Motorola Edge 70 teased in new promo clip
Tipster Evan Blass shared a promotional video hinting at the upcoming Motorola Edge 70. The video highlights the phone’s super-thin profile and showcases its Pantone-backed color lineup: Bronze Green, Gadget Gray, and Lily Pad. These colorways follow Motorola’s recent design direction, blending subtle hues with bolder branding.

Global name for Moto X70 Air likely set
While Motorola officially mentioned the Moto X70 Air in China, global markets are expected to see it branded as the Edge 70. Blass’s track record adds weight to this theory, especially given how much the new teaser leans into the “Edge” identity.
Motorola Edge 70 may be thinner than ever
The real story is the thickness or lack of it. The Edge 70 could come in below 6 mm, matching Apple and Samsung’s thinnest upcoming devices. That makes it a serious contender in the ultra-slim category. Although Motorola hasn’t confirmed specs yet, a few details are already visible.
Here’s what we know so far:
- Estimated sub-6 mm profile
- 50 MP main camera
- 120° ultra-wide-angle lens
- Dedicated AI button
- Three Pantone color options
Motorola Edge 70 lacks a release date, for now
As of now, Motorola hasn’t given a firm release date. Still, the presence of a polished promotional video suggests the launch isn’t far off. If previous Edge launches are any indication, early global availability could follow the Chinese rollout within weeks.
Thin phones, thick competition
With Apple and Samsung already crowding the thin-and-light category, Motorola has to bring more than just sleekness. But if the Edge 70 combines design with smart hardware moves, it won’t just be another slim phone; it’ll be a serious rival.
