On May 23, Motorola will introduce its first flagship phone of 2023 in India, following the introduction of a slew of low- and mid-priced smartphones. According to its features, the phone, dubbed the Motorola Edge 40, falls somewhere between the Motorola Edge 30 Pro and Edge 30 Fusion from the previous year. The business has already set up its official page on Flipkart ahead of the launch, which also includes a breakdown of some of the important specs and the design. An item with a faux leather-like cover in green is displayed in the Flipkart listing. Additionally, customers will have a choice between blue and black colour options.
In-depth details about Key details and features about Launch of the Motorola Edge 40 in India is scheduled for May 23
The official poster shows a curved display with a selfie camera hole-punch cutout. In order to improve gaming and scrolling, Motorola is also increasing the refresh rate to 144Hz. The Motorola Edge 40 includes a 6.5-inch display with an in-display fingerprint scanner, according to Motorola. The business is utilising a pOLED panel with HDR10+ capability and a 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut. The pOLED offers deeper blacks and is comparable to the popular OLED and AMOLED. The phone maintains its slim appearance thanks to pOLED, which is also considerably lighter.
Additionally, the Motorola Edge 40 is the first smartphone from Motorola to feature MediaTek’s Dimensity 8020 SoC. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor is found in the Motorola Edge 30 Pro from last year. 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and up to 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage are included with the MediaTek chipset.
We may anticipate the Motorola Edge 40 to place a similar emphasis on the camera as the previous Edge smartphones did. The Flipkart website indicates a 50-megapixel primary camera with optical image stabilisation on the rear. More steady films and photographs are made possible by OIS technology. Additionally, a 13-megapixel ultra-wide camera with a macro mode will be available. With the ultra-wide camera on the Edge 30 Pro and Edge 30 Fusion, Motorola provides the same functionality. A 32-megapixel front camera sensor will be included.
With 68W cable charging, the Motorola Edge 40’s 4,440mAh battery provides power. Additionally, the smartphone has 15W quick charging, which is still unusual for many Android phones. Motorola is proud of the simple Android UI on the Edge 40. You can take advantage of the newest Android privacy and productivity features because the phone comes pre-installed with Android 13. The phone will also get Android 14, however the precise date is yet unknown.
Although the pricing is yet unknown, based on the features, we can estimate that the phone will cost about Rs 45,000. Motorola Edge 30 Fusion and Edge 30 Ultra now have starting prices of Rs 39,999 and Rs 49,999, respectively.
