Motorola is gearing up to launch its next premium smartphone, the Edge 50 Pro. While an official release date is yet to be announced, rumors and teasers suggest a potential launch in early April, particularly in India. Here’s a closer look at what we know so far about this upcoming device.
Display: A Visual Powerhouse
The Edge 50 Pro is shaping up to be a multimedia powerhouse. Leaks and official teasers point towards a stunning 6.7-inch curved pOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate. This translates to buttery smooth visuals, ideal for gamers and anyone who craves a seamless browsing experience. The display boasts a 1.5K resolution (likely around 1220p) and is the world’s first to be Pantone-validated, promising exceptional color accuracy and lifelike visuals. Additionally, the display is expected to reach a peak brightness of 2000 nits, making it easily viewable outdoors on even the sunniest days. Protection comes courtesy of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus Plus, ensuring the display can handle everyday bumps and scratches.
Performance: Packed with Power
Under the hood, the Edge 50 Pro is rumored to be a performance beast. The leaks suggest it will be equipped with the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, one of the most powerful mobile processors currently available. This, coupled with 12GB of RAM, promises exceptional performance for demanding tasks like multitasking, gaming, and running heavy applications.
Camera System: Geared Up for Creators
Motorola is placing a strong emphasis on the Edge 50 Pro’s camera capabilities. The phone is expected to sport a triple-lens rear camera system, headlined by a 50-megapixel primary sensor with a large 2μm pixel size. This should offer excellent low-light performance and capture sharp details. The system is complemented by a 13-megapixel ultrawide sensor with macro capabilities for capturing close-up shots and a 10-megapixel telephoto lens with a rumored 50x hybrid zoom, allowing you to get closer to distant subjects. Motorola is highlighting the phone’s AI-powered features like autofocus tracking, adaptive stabilization, and an AI photo enhancement engine to improve image quality. With a world-first Pantone-validated camera, the Edge 50 Pro promises excellent color reproduction for photos that look true to life.
Additional Features and Design
The Motorola Edge 50 Pro is expected to pack a 4,500mAh battery, which should offer a full day’s charge for most users. The phone is also rumored to support 125W wired fast charging and 50W wireless fast charging, allowing you to quickly get back to using your phone. Design-wise, leaks suggest the phone will be available in three colors: black, white, and purple. The curved display and a rumored in-display fingerprint sensor hint at a sleek and modern design.

While there’s no official confirmation yet, the Motorola Edge 50 Pro is expected to launch in India sometime in April. The expected price tag is around ₹89,990 (approximately $1,070 USD), placing it firmly in the premium smartphone category.
