The Motorola Edge 2026 is very similar to the Edge 70.
With the Edge 2026, Motorola will apparently soon be launching a brand new mid-range smartphone on the market, which can now be seen in advance in high-resolution product images. The Motorola Edge 2026 has a telephoto camera with triple optical zoom.

Motorola is apparently planning a series of new mid-range Edge series smartphones soon. After pictures of the Edge 70 Pro+ have already been leaked, Digital Citizen has published high-resolution product images of the Motorola Edge 2026. The design is very similar to the Motorola Edge 70 ($619 on Amazon), but the Edge 2026 is slightly thicker and equipped with an additional rear camera.

The label on the camera module confirms that the mid-range smartphone has a 12 mm ultra-wide-angle camera and a 73 mm telephoto camera, meaning the Edge 2026 offers triple optical zoom. The design is now typical for Motorola. Like most models in the Edge series, the Edge 2026 has a fabric covered back and a square camera module.
 


The volume buttons and the power button are located on the right-hand side. The button on the left-hand side is likely to be used to quickly access AI features, as is usual for Motorola. The front is relatively unspectacular - the display has the usual narrow bezels and the selfie camera sits in a punch-hole.

So far, hardly any details about the features of the Motorola Edge 2026 are known. For comparison: The Motorola Edge 2025 was equipped with a MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultra, with a 6.7 inch, 4,500 nits bright P-OLED display, a 50 megapixel f/1.8 main camera with a 1/1.56 inch sensor, a 50 MP f/2.0 ultra wide-angle camera, a 10 MP telephoto camera with triple zoom and a 50 MP selfie camera.
