While the phones are impressive, the big caveat with a thin and light smartphone is compromised battery life, as there\u2019s less physical space available for a large battery. But what if you could pack a decent-sized battery in a thin and light phone? That would make it prime for replacing your conventional smartphone, and it seems Motorola is on track to do just that with the Moto Edge 70.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_Wn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_Ug\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Ug\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Motorola had already been teasing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/motorola-thin-phone-teaser-galaxy-s25-edge-competitor-3602203\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Moto X70 Air<\/a> for the Chinese market, and now, the company has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorola.com\/pl\/pl\/unlock-the-future\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">started teasing<\/a> a thin and light phone for international markets. It\u2019s very likely the same phone, and some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.codi-tek.com\/it\/Motorola-EDGE-70-12GB-512GB-PANTONE-BRONZE-GREEN--P463899.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">online listings<\/a> are referring to it as the Moto Edge 70, which aligns with Motorola\u2019s naming convention.<\/p>\n<p>According to Motorola\u2019s official teasers, the Moto Edge 70 will have a 4,800mAh battery. This may not sound impressive, considering conventional smartphones offer batteries with a capacity of over 5,000mAh. However, we know from leaks that the Edge 70 will be under 6mm in thickness. For reference, the Galaxy S25 Edge is 5.8mm thick and features a 3,900mAh battery, while the iPhone Air has a thickness of 5.6mm and a 3,149mAh battery. Therefore, the Moto Edge 70 should offer better all-day battery life.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Ug\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Motorola Moto Edge 70 Battery capacity\"  alt=\"Motorola Moto Edge 70 Battery capacity\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Motorola-Moto-Edge-70-Battery-capacity.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Motorola has also confirmed that the phone will support 68W fast charging, which will undoubtedly help the phone be more usable if it dies before the end of your day. For context, the Galaxy S25 Edge supports 25W wired charging, while the iPhone Air is also in the same ballpark (Apple doesn\u2019t disclose exact charging specifications).<\/p>\n<p>Leaks suggest that the Edge 70 will come with a 50MP primary rear camera with OIS and a 120\u00b0 FoV. It should be coming in three colors: Pantone Lily Pad, Pantone Gadget Gray, and Pantone Bronze Green.<\/p>\n<p>Motorola will continue to reveal specifications every Wednesday until the phone launches on November 5 in select European regions, although the launch in China is this month itself.\u00a0We are eager to learn more about the Edge 70 and how it shakes up the thin and light smartphone category.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
