The Moto Edge X is launching in China next month. It is likely that this phone by Motorola may debut as the world’s first phone powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset. Not only this, but the company is also likely to become the first brand to launch a 200-megapixel camera phone.

According to reliable tipsters such as Ice Universe and Digital Chat Station, Motorola is working on a smartphone with a 200-megapixel camera. At present, there is no word on the moniker of the device.

Ice Universe said Xiaomi will be launching a 200-megapixel camera smartphone in the second of 2022 and Samsung will launch a 200-megapixel camera phone in 2023. This indicates that Motorola’s 200-megapixel camera phone may break cover in the first half of 2022.
