Overview
- Motorola officially unveiled the Edge 2026 on Tuesday, June 2, and confirmed it will go on sale in the US and Canada on June 11 for $599.99, sold unlocked at Best Buy and Motorola.com with Verizon availability at launch and other carriers following.
- The phone uses a 6.3‑inch Extreme AMOLED screen at 120Hz that Motorola rates for a peak brightness of up to 5,200 nits, a compact size meant to prioritize pocket comfort and outdoor visibility.
- Camera hardware centers on a 50MP Sony LYTIA 710 main sensor with OIS, backed by a 50MP ultrawide that supports macro shots and a 10MP 3x telephoto, plus a 50MP front camera and AI scene tuning across lenses.
- Under the hood the Edge 2026 runs Android 16 on a MediaTek Dimensity 7450 with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage, a 5,000mAh battery with 60W wired and 15W wireless charging, and ruggeding that includes IP68/IP69, MIL‑STD‑810H, and Gorilla Glass 7i.
- Motorola also announced Moto Buds 2 for July; remaining open questions in coverage include the precise long‑term Android update promise and wider carrier/region rollout, and reviewers note the phone’s $50 price increase compared with last year amid industry memory‑cost pressure.
