Motorola Edge 40 to Launch with 50MP f/1.4 Main Cam, IP68, and Dimensity 8020
Motorola has unveiled the Edge 40, completing its Edge 40 family of smartphones. The Edge 40 is not only equipped with impressive specifications but also boasts a high-quality design that is aesthetically pleasing.
Available in two finishes, the Edge 40 offers an acrylic option in Blue and a vegan leather option in Black or Green. The vegan leather models weigh 171g, while the acrylic variant is lighter at 167g. All three options are IP68 certified, ensuring water and dust resistance. Under the hood, the Motorola Edge 40 relies on the powerful 6nm Dimensity 8020 chipset paired with 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM. It also provides a generous 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage.
The front of the Motorola Edge 40 showcases a 6.55-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2400×1080 pixels. Notably, it features a high 144Hz refresh rate, 360Hz touch sampling, and HDR10+ support. The panel is an 8-bit display capable of reaching up to 1200 nits of brightness. Surrounding the screen are dual stereo speakers, fine-tuned by Dolby Atmos.
Turning to the camera capabilities, the primary shooter on the Edge 40 boasts a 50MP 1/1.5-inch sensor with a wide f/1.4 optically-stabilized lens. The sensor uses pixel-binning technology to combine four pixels into one, resulting in larger 2µm pixels for enhanced image quality. Additionally, there is a secondary 13MP f/2.2 ultrawide camera with “Macro Vision,” allowing for close-up photography with autofocus capabilities. For selfies, the Edge 40 offers a 32MP f/2.4 front-facing camera with autofocus.
Powering the device is a 4,400mAh battery, which supports 68W wired charging (the charger is included in the box). Additionally, the Edge 40 supports 15W wireless charging. The Motorola Edge 40 is available for purchase starting today in Nebula Green and Eclipse Black, both in vegan leather, as well as Lunar Blue in an acrylic finish. The sole configuration offered is 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, priced at €550.
