Motorola Edge 70 Max leaked with flat design, Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset
Motorola could be preparing its most ambitious Edge-series smartphone yet. Leaked marketing materials obtained by DigitalCitizen suggest the company is working on the Motorola Edge 70 Max, the first-ever “Max” model in the Edge lineup. It would join the existing Edge 70 lineup, which already has four models. The Motorola Edge 70 Max could be the most powerful one in the series, with a new flat design.

The biggest change appears to be the design. Unlike previous Edge smartphones that typically featured curved displays other than the Neo models, the Edge 70 Max adopts a flat display and flat-frame design, marking a first for the series. The phone is shown in Onyx Black, Sage Green, and Glacier Blue colour options, each featuring Motorola’s signature batwing logo and a colour-matched camera module.

Under the hood, the Edge 70 Max is said to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset. The Motorola Signature also uses the same chipset. Users can expect top-tier gaming performance, faster AI processing, and smooth multitasking at the flagship level.
The leak also points to a versatile camera setup. Renders show a triple-camera setup consisting of a main camera, telephoto lens, and ultra-wide sensor. Marketing images highlight portrait photography, low-light shots, and action photography. Other notable details include razor-thin display bezels, wireless charging support, and MIL-STD 810H durability certification.
The leaked materials also reference “Qira,” which appears to be Motorola’s upcoming on-device AI assistant. It is expected to offer features such as photo editing, real-time translation, text summarisation, and AI-powered search tools.
While specifications and pricing remain unknown, the Edge 70 Max appears positioned above the current Edge Pro models. If the leak is accurate, this could be the Motorola phone to wait for if you’re looking for flagship-level performance, flat design, and a more camera-focused experience without stepping into ultra-premium pricing territory. If you own an older Edge series, this might be a significant upgrade, especially for the chipset.
