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.

The upcoming Moto Edge X will also offer a stellar photography experience. It will be the world’s first smartphone to feature a 60-megapixel OmniVision OV60A 0.61μm camera sensor for capturing selfies. It will also be the first phone to feature a 50-megapixel OmniVision OV50A 1/1.55-inch camera sensor. This camera will be available on the rear shell of the device. The Moto Edge X is expected to launch as the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra in global markets.

The TENAA listing of the phone has revealed that its rear shell will have a 50-megapixel + 50-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple camera unit. It has a 6.67-inch OLED FHD+ 144Hz display, Snapdragon 8 Gen1 chip, up to 16 GB of RAM, up to 512 GB of storage, and a 4,700mAh battery that supports 68W fast charging.

Motorola, the Lenovo-owned smartphone brand is gearing up to launch its next flagship smartphone and the company has teased the product which is named Moto Edge X. Ahead of the launch, leaks and reports related to the device have started surfacing online.

In the latest development, the Moto Edge X has reportedly passed through the 3C certification process, carrying model number XT2201-2. It reveals that the phone will come with support for 68.2W fast charging technology.

It’s noteworthy that the certification hasn’t revealed the name of the device but given the charging speed of the device, it’s definitely a premium category phone and so far, it seems that the Moto Edge X is the only one that fits the description.

The battery capacity hasn’t been revealed through the 3C certificate but the reports indicate that it could pack either a 4,500mAh or 5,000mAh battery. Further, the device is expected to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 898 chipset, which is set to make its debut by the end of this month.

Do note that Motorola has not launched a device powered by Snapdragon 888 chipset this year, so that’s also a possibility. In the camera department, it could come with a triple-camera setup, led by a 108-megapixel primary sensor.

Being a premium smartphone, it could come with a 120Hz or 144Hz AMOLED display. As for the memory, there’s a possibility of getting up to 12GB of RAM. However, these are just speculation at this point and to know for sure, we will have to wait for the confirmation or teasers from the company.

The post Motorola’s upcoming flagship Moto Edge X reportedly passed through 3C certification appeared first on Gizmochina.

In August, Motorola announced the Moto Edge S Pro and Moto Edge Lite in China. These phones were rebranded versions of Motorola Edge 20 Pro and Motorola Edge 20. Fresh information reveals that the Lenovo-owned brand is now gearing up to launch a new phone called the Moto Edge X in China.

Today, the General Manager of Lenovo China Mobile Phone Business Department, Chen Jin took to Weibo to share a teaser of a new phone called the Moto Edge X. He did not share any information on the specs of the device but claimed that it is indefinitely powerful and full of expectations.

The Snapdragon 870 powered Edge S Pro arrived as the successor to the Edge S, driven by the same SoC. It seems that the upcoming Edge X could be a flagship device.

Qualcomm is expected to announce the next-generation Snapdragon 898 SoC at the upcoming Tech Summit event, which will be held by the end of this month. It is unclear whether the Edge X features the SD898 chip. Motorola did not launch a Snapdragon 888 SoC powered flagship this year. Hence, there is a possibility that it could be equipped with the SD888 chip. Hopefully, the company will share more details on the Edge X in the coming days.

In related news, a Motorola phone with model number XT2175-2 has received certification from the 3C authority of China. It revealed that the handset might carry support for 33W fast charging. A variant of this phone with model number XT2175-1 was spotted at Wi-Fi Alliance in September. The Edge S Pro supported 30W fast charging. Hence, it appears that the XT2175-2 phone that has emerged with a faster charger at 3C could be the upcoming Moto Edge X.
