Motorola introduces world’s first smartphones to feature Pantone™ Validated camera and display
April 16, 2024
Validations strengthen Motorola’s partnership with Pantone and extends color accuracy and expertise beyond hardware
The power of color is undeniable. Influencing what we wear and even how we think and feel, color is at the root of our every day. At Motorola, this belief has fueled our device approach and inspired our Pantone partnership. Since 2022, we’ve incorporated Pantone across our portfolio, bringing its impactful shades to consumers. From the motorola razr 40 ultra/razr+ sporting the Pantone Color of the Year 2024, PANTONE 13-1023 Peach Fuzz, to the motorola edge 40 neo debuting a full lineup of Pantone-curated colors, and the PANTONE 18-1750Viva Magenta moto g84 5G, consumers can choose a smartphone based on Pantone to reflect their personal aesthetic, regardless of budget or style preference.
Today, Motorola is moving beyond color and finish selection and pulling Pantone’s expertise into the device display and camera tuning with Pantone™ Validated and Pantone SkinTone™ Validated. These patent pending technology programs test a manufacturer’s device to ensure authentic, Pantone colors and skin tones. To pass Pantone’s strict grading criteria, the product’s camera or display must maintain the color fidelity of the diverse colors found in the Pantone PMS and SkinTone guides.
Essential for content creators, photographers and designers, these programs give consumers true colors that can help them tap into their creativity and bring their ideas to life. As reflected within the device technology, Pantone’s display and camera assessments are recognized on the new motorola edge 50 ultra and motorola edge 50 pro – the first world smartphones to receive these program accolades.
“This next step in our Pantone partnership allows our users to capture and view color and skin tone on their smartphone and know that these shades are authentic and true-to-life,” Ruben Castano, Head of Customer Experience at Motorola, said. “It’s important for us to instill color confidence and strengthen inclusivity for our users, and we’re thrilled to lead the industry in this effort.”
By utilizing Pantone’s design prowess at each stage of device development, Motorola is delivering authentic colors to allow users to share their spectrum of experiences.
“We believe in creating product trust around skin tone and Pantone color fidelity and are gratified to see Motorola leading the way in leveraging these features within their devices,” Iain Pike, Senior Global Director of Product and Licensing at Pantone, said. “Expanding inclusion in the mobile space is meaningful, and we are excited to be a part of this development.”
Pantone™ Validated and Pantone SkinTone™ Validated features are now available on the motorola edge 50 ultra and motorola edge 50 pro. Stay tuned for more information on availability for future devices.

New Motorola Study Reveals Employees’ Growing Desire for Work Smartphones, for a Better Work-Life Balance and Productivity Boost
March 14, 2024
In today’s hybrid work landscape, employees often rely on devices beyond their company-provided computer to complete their work. This usage of additional technology, particularly leveraging personal devices for work, can blur the lines between professional and personal. An issue that could be addressed by including a dedicated work smartphone alongside the standard company-provided computer. However, Motorola found a gap in the utilization of dedicated work smartphones by organizations across the globe in two recent surveys: “The Global Employee Security and Productivity Study” and “The Global IT Decision-Maker Study.”
The “Global Employee Security and Productivity Study” revealed only 26% of employees use a dedicated work smartphone provided by their employer, suggesting the vast majority of employees use their personal smartphone for work purposes. This can present a number of concerns for both organizations and employees, including hindered productivity, compromised security, and difficulty establishing proper work-life balance.
While the usage of dedicated work smartphones is limited, employee interest is not lacking. Motorola found the majority (54%) of respondents who do not use a work-dedicated smartphone would opt into using one if provided by their organization. When it comes to those employees who do use a dedicated work smartphone, their experiences are often positive, with 85% agreeing they feel a better sense of work-life balance when using their dedicated work smartphone. The benefits extend beyond work-life balance to greater efficiency completing tasks (63%) and streamlined communication with colleagues (57%).
“Now more than ever, employees are seeking methods to enhance their experience at work. Solely relying on a personal smartphone in the workplace can pose challenges for employees, such as hindering productivity, increasing security risks, and leaving undefined boundaries between work and personal life,” said Sudhir Chadaga, Head of B2B at Motorola. “While we’re seeing a growing desire for work-provided phones from employees, the majority of companies have yet to take action in providing them, leaving individuals to navigate work tasks and communication on their personal smartphones.”
Dedicated work smartphones don’t just benefit employees, with leadership also realizing the benefits of providing dedicated work smartphones and the risks associated with foregoing this offering. Motorola’s “Global IT Decision-Maker Study” found 100% of CIOs and CTOs at large companies who offer their employees company-provided smartphones report benefits from doing so. On the other hand, 61% of CIOs and CTOs are concerned by the security risks posed by employees using personal smartphones for work purposes.
“There are numerous risks associated with using personal smartphones in the workplace, the most significant of which are heightened vulnerability to data breaches and increased potential for employee distractions,” said Chadaga. “Integrating dedicated work smartphones allows companies to maintain proper security measures while promoting productivity and better work-life balance. With the Motorola for Business portfolio, we aim to offer end-to-end solutions to our customers, customizable for their needs and size of business.”
With the crucial role technology plays in the hybrid work landscape, expanding company-provided devices beyond computers to include smartphones has the potential to benefit both employers and their employees. From improved work-life balance to enhanced security and productivity, Motorola’s “Global Employee Security and Productivity Study” and “Global IT Decision-Maker Study” suggest the benefits of leveraging dedicated work smartphones are significant and worth considering.
Motorola for Business provides organizations with the latest advancements in digital technology, data security and mobile device management with enterprise-ready mobile smartphones, from moto g, motorola edge and razr families, as well as the Lenovo ThinkPhone by Motorola.
