HIGHLIGHTS

• Motorola Edge (2023) design reveals dual camera sensors, curved edges, and an aluminium frame.
• The hardware specifications of the phone are currently under wraps.
• The Motorola Edge (2023) might arrive as a tweaked version of the Edge 40.

Motorola is expected to launch the Edge (2023) smartphone later this year. Ahead of the official announcement, an alleged Motorola Edge (2023) render has surfaced online showing off the upcoming phone’s complete design. The moniker also suggests the phone will sit below the Motorola Edge+ 2023 that launched with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset earlier this year in May.

Motorola Edge (2023) design

• The Motorola Edge (2023) render showsa punch-hole cutout for the selfie snapper, narrow bezels, and curved edges for that premium feel.
• The volume rocker and power button are on the right edge.
• The side frame appears to be made of aluminium.
• Flipping the phone to the back, you see a square module, which houses two large cutouts for camera sensors and dual LED flash.
• The Motorola Edge (2023) can be seen in black colour but there could be other options at launch. A 50MP text is engraved on the back panel.
• We also see the iconic Moto dimple.
