As leaks and other rumours, the Motorola Edge 40 Pro takes on the features of a first-class flagship. If this information is confirmed, the device would not have to blush against its Chinese, American or Korean competitors… and who knows, it could even mark a turning point for Motorola.
Could the Motorola Edge 40 Pro be one of the best smartphones of 2023? The question arises as the seductive information piles up in favor of the next high-end mobile from the Chinese manufacturer. The subsidiary of Lenovo, whose premium smartphones are still struggling to make an impression, despite their good qualities, could give birth to a really striking flagship this time.
Good news in perspective for Motorola, which remains for the moment still in the shadow of Samsung, Apple, and the Chinese leaders in the high-end segment. At least if the Edge 40 Pro complies with the latest leaks, shared on Twitter by SnoopyTech, reputed to be well informed.
Motorola Edge 40 Pro: a well-armed flagship?
The person concerned indeed corroborates a good part of the information that had come to us in recent months. He gives us the robot portrait of a well-armed flagship offered at a rather attractive price. The device should thus include a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, a maximum of 12 GB of RAM, 256 GB of internal storage and a 6.67-inch Full HD + (presumably AMOLED) screen, capable of going up to 165 Hz.

For the rest, there would be three rear photo sensors (a 50 Mpx main module, a 50 Mpx ultra-wide-angle and a 12 Mpx zoom), and a 4,600 mAh battery compatible with 125 W fast charging. everything would be powered by Android 13 right out of the box and would arrive in Europe in a single color (Lunar Blue) from 899 euros according to the leaker. Credible position.

Overall, these specs are very reminiscent of the Moto X40, which launched in Asia late last year. The Edge 40 Pro would then be a “simple” port dedicated to the European market. In the USA, XDA Developers believes that the device could this time adopt the name of Moto Edge + 2023.
It now remains to be seen whether the device will benefit from a well-calibrated screen, good photo quality, and whether it will be able to properly exploit the full power of its SoC signed Qualcomm… Response to its launch, probably d a few weeks away.
