Motorola Edge 50 Pro to come with Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, launch date leaks

Motorola is preparing to launch its next flagship, Edge 50 Pro, which will have a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset. The announcement comes from the company's Chinese branch, which confirmed the chipset for the X50 Ultra, which is going to be the local name for the Pro.

We also expect the phone to launch in the United States under the name Edge+ (2024) since Motorola brands its flagship with the Plus moniker for its American customers.

The phone also appeared in multiple video leaks and teasers, revealing an April 3 launch in India, a date which we told you about before.

According to some videos pretending to showcase the X50 Ultra/Edge 50 Pro, the phone will have a 6.7” screen with Full HD+ resolution and 165 Hz refresh rate, 12 GB RAM and up to 512 GB storage. However, these videos might be refurbished footage of the Edge 40 Pro because they do not reveal anything that the 2023 flagship did not have, not even some Android 14-specific features. See for yourself:

The Moto Edge 50 Pro is already up on Flipkart with its own landing page. It confirmed some specs like a 50 MP main camera that will also bring auto-focus tracking in video, AI adaptive stabilization, and an AI photo enhancement guide.

The page also said the screen will have 1220p resolution and 144 Hz refresh rate, contradicting the videos. Also, Motorola said this would be the first phone with a Pantone-validated display, which will bring “real-world colors” and “accurate skin tones” in the “most authentic way”.

Motorola Edge 50 Pro will arrive in three colors – White, Purple, and Black. We expect to learn more details about the phone since it is just around the corner.
