When Motorola unveiled the Edge 70 Max in India last month, it appeared to be the last device in the series, as the lineup already includes multiple models, such as the Edge 70, Edge 70 Fusion, Edge 70 Pro, and Edge 70 Pro+. A new development suggests that the company is not done with the lineup yet, as it could be working on a Neo-branded phone.

Motorola Edge 70 Neo spotted for the first time

The above screengrab from the Lenovo forum site reveals that Motorola has opened registrations for the Android 17 beta program in India, and the listing specifically mentions the unannounced Motorola Edge 70 Neo, confirming the device’s existence for the first time. While Motorola has not officially announced the smartphone yet, its appearance on the company’s official beta testing forum suggests that its launch could be close.

Given that the device is already associated with Android 17 beta testing, there’s a good chance the Edge 70 Neo could debut with Android 17 out of the box, although Motorola has not confirmed this yet. It remains to be seen whether the device goes official later this month or in September.

India also appears to be one of the first markets to receive the Motorola Edge 70 Neo, as the company is specifically recruiting users in the country for its Android 17 beta program. At present, no information is available about the device’s specifications.

Previously released Neo models, such as the Edge 60 Neo and Edge 50 Neo, have featured compact designs. While the Edge 60 Neo has a 6.36-inch display, the Edge 50 Neo sports a 6.4-inch screen. Therefore, the Edge 70 Neo could also arrive with a similarly sized display.
