Motorola is gearing up to rejoin the ultra-thin smartphone race, and its upcoming Edge 70 could be one of the slimmest phones yet. A leaked promo video shared by Evan Blass (@evleaks) gives the first proper look at the device, highlighting a frame that’s said to measure under 6mm thick — right in line with Apple’s iPhone Air (5.6mm) and Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge (5.8mm).
The 30-second clip focuses on the Edge 70’s razor-thin profile, pausing on side angles that emphasize just how slim the device is. Motorola seems eager to show that thin doesn’t have to mean plain, either — the phone appears in three lively Pantone colors: Bronze Green, Gadget Gray, and Lily Pad, each with a glossy metallic finish.
As for the camera setup, the text around the LED flash module reveals that the main sensor has a 50MP resolution, 2.0 µm pixels, and supports OIS. The ultrawide camera offers a 120-degree field of view, which is fairly wide. There are three cutouts in the camera island (besides the flash module), but judging from the fact that there’s no mention of a telephoto lens—and the protrusion of the island on this sub-6mm phone is quite similar to the Edge 60—it doesn’t appear to house one. This approach mirrors Samsung and Apple’s slim offerings. While the phone follows the slim trend, the lack of a telephoto lens could be seen as a step back in functionality compared to the Edge 50 and Edge 60 series.
The Edge 70 is believed to be the global version of the Moto X70 Air, which is expected to launch in China this month. From what’s visible, the device sports a flat display with minimal bezels, a dedicated AI shortcut button, and a dual rear camera setup with a 50MP main sensor and a 120° ultra-wide lens.
