fastest. loudest. boldest. meet our new flagship phones: motorola edge+ and motorola edge

August 31, 2020

To stand apart in the market, we wanted to build a family of new devices that nails everything consumers care about most. The result is a state-of-the-art smartphone that delivers advanced technology in every category that matters, including powerhouse 5G performance, a dynamic and immersive display, a photography experience like no other, audio that’s completely unmatched, and the largest battery of any 5G phone on the market. Simply put, motorola edge+ is the flagship phone you’ve been waiting for.

motorola edge+ was built for speed, power, and the ultimate 5G performance

We started with the most advanced mobile platform on the market. Qualcomm’s SnapdragonTM865 Mobile Platform provides the fastest performance¹, 25% faster than previous generations, and nearly instant responsiveness for browsing, watching videos, or playing games. 12 GB of Micron DDR5 memory keeps your device running smoothly with 30% increased max bandwidth and lower battery drain, so you can take full advantage of the experiences enabled by 5G.²An innovative 5G antenna array connects you with both mmWave and sub-6GHz frequencies for global 5G compatibility and future speeds over 4 Gbps.³And connect to Wi-Fi 6, the new blazing-fast standard for Wi-Fi, for even outstanding internet speeds while using less power.⁴

With motorola edge+, we are bending the display like never before. Our brand new Endless Edge display wraps nearly 90-degrees around both sides of the device and stretches 6.7 inches to create an immersive viewing experience. Perfect for entertainment, the cinematic 21:9 screen ratio is the default aspect for major films and tv shows. The display is gorgeous, capable of showing a billion shades of color and offering incredibly dynamic picture quality with HDR10+. With a 90Hz screen refresh rate that you’ll love, the screen boasts exceptionally smooth movement so every scroll and swipe looks amazing. The Endless Edge display isn’t just beautiful, it’s functional too. The curved screen and narrow width on the motorola edge+ provide the optimal proportions for one-handed use and navigation, making it easy to reach across the device without fumbling.

Edge Touch, part of our new My UX suite of software features, allows you to customize new ways to interact with your device. Just swipe up or down on the edge to pull down notifications or switch apps. The display edges also come in handy when your phone isn’t in your hand, lighting up to show battery charging status, incoming calls, alarms, and notifications from across the room. In the new Moto Game time, gamers can turn the phone sideways and use two additional, customizable buttons on the top edge of the screen for console-like four finger gameplay.Mobile entertainment is on the rise, with mobile video consumption rising by 100% year over year.⁵

Our consumer research tells us that the majority of the time, consumers are using their phone’s loud speakers when watching their favorite content. motorola edge+ has the loudest, most powerful stereo speakers in a smartphone ever, plus precision tuning for professional-quality sonic performance and deeper, fuller sound.⁶

The audio tuning technology comes from Waves, recipient of a Technical GRAMMY® Award, to make your music, videos, and phone calls sound louder and clearer than ever. Born from recording studios and used by sound engineers, music, film & TV producers and broadcasters, Waves delivers professional-quality sonic performance on smartphone speakers in a way that’s never been done before.

We’ve refined the camera system in motorola edge+ so it gets as close to professional DSLR photo and video quality as possible. The 108 MP sensor main camera is the highest resolution ever included in a smartphone, and is physically nearly three times larger than the 12MP sensors used on predecessor flagship smartphones. With Quad Pixel technology, this sensor has 4x the light sensitivity to capture incredibly clear and crisp photos in all lighting conditions. The versatile triple camera system gives you a lens for every shot. Capture more from far away with high-res optical zoom on the 8MP telephoto lens, snap more of the scene with our 16MP ultra-wide angle lens, or get up close and personal with Macro Vision. Content creators will love the video capabilities on the motorola edge+, which allows you to record in 6K for incredible high-res videos. The industry’s most advanced video stabilization compensates for motion blur, changing focus, and crooked horizons, and even combines OIS and EIS for better low light video quality. The new video snapshot feature even lets you pull out a high res 20 MP photo while shooting video. The camera system has intuitive software features like video portrait mode, which brings a beautiful blur effect to your videos to turn the focus to your subject. Plus, dual OIS on the main and telephoto cameras compensates for unwanted camera movement so clarity and detail shine through no matter what.All this top tier performance and 5G power isn’t worth much if you’re constantly running out of battery. We packed a 5000 mAh battery into this device, the largest battery of any 5G phone on the market, to last you two full days of use.⁷

For added convenience, motorola edge+ features TurboPowerTM wired charging and wireless charging, plus you can share power with other devices in a snap with wireless power sharing.⁸

We’re committed to bringing intuitive software experiences to our consumers. There are no clunky software skins, no duplicate apps – just near-stock Android™ 10. We choose to build upon Android with unique ways to enhance customers’ mobile experience. That’s why with motorola edge+ we’re introducing My UX, allowing users to customize their experience to be even more intuitive and personal, so it works the way they want. And it’s all in one place, the Moto app!

My UX includes all the great moto experiences customers have come to know and love, from turning on the flashlight with a simple chop gesture to launching the camera with the twist of a wrist. And with motorola edge+, in addition to the new edge display interactions, My UX let’s users take music, videos and games to the next level with custom settings and advanced controls. Users can even create their own device themes by choosing from unique fonts, colors, icon shapes, and fingerprint sensor animations, so their phone is one in a million. My UX truly puts users in control of their mobile experience.

motorola edge completes the family

For those who are interested in switching to a supercharged 5G device at an even more affordable price, motorola edge offers incredible camera, entertainment, and performance experiences. You get the exact same gorgeous 6.7” Endless Edge display and audio experience as motorola edge+. This phone also packs powerhouse sub-6 GHz 5G performance, a Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 765 mobile platform, a massive 4500 mAh battery to back it up, and a versatile triple camera system that features a 64MP main lens, 16MP ultra-wide lens with Macro Vision, and an 8 MP telephoto lens.Our drive to create the very best flagship phone on the market is all about pushing the boundaries of what’s possible for performance and design, building on our expertise, and solving key pain points for consumers by putting into practice everything we’ve learned through our extensive consumer research.

And with the unique 21:9 aspect ratio, the phone offers a beautifully streamlined design that’s easy to hold while elegantly accommodating the large, gorgeous screen in your hand.

moto g 5G plus also introduces our first-ever dual selfie camera system with a unique ultra-wide selfie lens. With the ability to fit 4x more of your friends or background into your frame,³ you can leave the selfie stick at home. The main 16MP camera features Quad Pixel technology with 4x more light sensitivity⁶, for brighter low-light shots. Now you can capture Instagram-worthy snapshots no matter what the conditions are.

With the rear camera system you’ll have the perfect camera for any situation, any way you look at it.

The ultra-wide lens also fits 4x more into the screen so you never miss a single detail in a larger-than-life shot.³A depth sensor makes everyday photos extraordinary with DSLR-quality blurred out backgrounds, and a dedicated Macro Vision camera gets you 5x closer to your subject compared with a normal lens for stunning, pro-looking photos that will take your breath away.

Automatically organized and searchable by the people, places, and things in them, your photos and memories are always easy to find and share. This means unlimited storage for all of your photos which are automatically backed up and can be accessed, edited and shared from anywhere.

April 6, 2020

On April 6, 2020, the new razr received the coveted Red Dot: “Best of the Best” award, the highest distinction in the Red Dot Award Product Design category reserved for innovations with the most ground-breaking design. This year, designers and companies from 60 countries entered more than 6,500 products in the competition. At Motorola, we strive to innovate around the design and engineering of smartphones in order to create devices that meet the needs of consumers while also providing them with an element of surprise and delight. This extends across our entire portfolio of products but was most recently recognized by Red Dot for razr´s unique clamshell foldable design.

When we designed razr we set out to create the best smartphone that utilized flexible display technology and answered a real consumer pain point – the need for portability. Every decision throughout the development process was geared toward delivering a strikingly beautiful device with a totally unique, but totally practical, pocketable design. As a result, razr succeeds at embodying each of Motorola’s core design principles: simplicity, surprise, and richness. “When designing razr, our team wanted to create an innovative and seamless solution that would break the status quo in terms of modern-day phone design. razr brings back a design identity that so many consumers emotionally connect with, and that is truly unique,” Ruben Castano, Head of Customer Experience at Motorola Mobility.

On June 22, 2020, razr will be added to the “Milestones in Contemporary Design” exhibition in the Red Dot Design Museum Essen, where all of the award-winning products will be on display. Congratulations to the entire team that helped bring the new razr to life! To read more about the new razr and its availability please visit our website.

About the Red Dot Design Award: In order to appraise the diversity in the field of design in a professional manner, the Red Dot Design Award breaks down into the three disciplines of Red Dot Award: Product Design, Red Dot Award: Brands & Communication Design and Red Dot Award: Design Concept. With more than 18,000 entries, the Red Dot Award is one of the world´s largest design competitions. In 1955, a jury convened for the first time to assess the best designs of the day. In the 1990s, Red Dot CEO Professor Dr. Peter Zec developed the name and brand of the award. Ever since the sought-after distinction “Red Dot” has been the revered international seal of outstanding design quality. The award winners are presented in the yearbooks, museums and online. More information is available at www.red-dot.de.

everything you can do on razr’s Quick View display

November 19, 2019

Motorola is innovating once again and bringing to the market a re-invention of the iconic flippable cell phone: RAZR. At the time, the original razr had an external display to show the time and other information at a glance. Today, consumers are starting to recognize the need to disconnect, but they still want to have the most important information at their fingertips when it’s necessary. That´s why our engineering & user experience teams developed a totally new smartphone display for the new razr that adds interactivity, allowing you to actually respond to notifications and control some phone features even while it´s closed.

Motorola razr features a 2.7-inch OLED interactive Quick View front display, a touch screen that helps you tackle notifications without constantly opening your phone. Like the original razr, the Quick View display has information at a glance when the phone is closed, but it also lets you interact in completely new ways.

1. see, respond and move onThe Quick View display easily lets you see all of your notifications without opening the phone thanks to Peek Display, part of our exclusive Moto Experiences. Peek Display gives you a quick preview of notifications and updates, but also lets you open them to see more, or dismiss them. You can even reply to text messages and emails directly on the Quick View display with a smart reply or by dictating a voice reply. You can also take calls when the phone is closed and use the main camera to make video calls, all without having to open the phone.

2. pay and be on your wayrazr comes equipped with NFC technology, which allows you to authorize mobile payments using Google Pay on the go. You can use the Quick View display to easily pay with a tap in just seconds, so you ll never hold up the line at check out.

3. rock out to your favorite songs You can listen to music and get easy access to control media playback from the Quick View display while the phone is closed. Now when you want to change a song, you don´t have to go into your phone and fumble with the controls. All you have to do is swipe up on the media player icon to play, pause, or toggle between tracks. You can also enable Moto Actions to let you use the volume keys to change tracks while the screen is off.

4. snap the perfect shot We´ve made sure razr´s compact design doesn´t stop you from taking amazing photos. When razr is closed, you can use the phone´s main camera to capture high-quality selfies. When you want to take a selfie, simply twist your wrist twice to open the camera using the Twist to Capture, part of exclusive Moto Actions. Then you can snap a photo with just your smile thanks to Auto Smile Capture, or use the volume keys as shutter buttons.

And there´s a brand new way to take selfies on razr: Gesture Selfie. When you show the camera an open palm, it triggers a two-second countdown timer before taking a shot automatically. The Quick View display also comes in handy when you re taking photos with the phone open. When you set a timer on the internal display, a countdown will also appear on the external display to let your subject know it´s time to pose. And after capturing a photo on the internal display, the external display can show a preview for your subject to review to make sure it´s just right.

You can also set the Quick View Display to play a fun animation to get your subject´s attention when taking a photo to help with photographing young kids or even pets.

5. get help from Google Assistant The Quick View display was designed to work with Google Assistant, so you can get the information you need with voice control. You can talk to Google Assistant any time, even when the phone is closed and locked. Just say “Ok Google” to start giving voice commands or asking questions to use your digital assistant to the fullest.

6. seamless transitions in an instant The Quick View and Flex View displays are made to work together to create an incredibly intuitive user experience. Whenever you need more information or want a bigger view, a simple flip is all it takes. Whatever you see on Quick View magically moves to the larger Flex View display the moment you flip open the device.
