Motorola fans may be disappointed to hear that there may not be a Motorola Edge 60 Ultra released this year. However, all hope is not lost for the flagship smartphone series. The current lineup of the Motorola Edge 60 Pro, Motorola Edge 60, and Motorola Edge 60 Fusion is making waves in the mid-range smartphone market. But what about the flagship category? Where is the successor to the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra?
According to reliable tipster Evan Blass, it seems like Motorola could be skipping 2025 altogether when it comes to their Ultra range. Instead, the next non-foldable flagship phone from Motorola is rumored to be the Motorola Edge 70 Ultra. While there may not be a Motorola Edge 60 Ultra, the Edge 70 Ultra is said to be in the works for a potential release in 2026.
It appears that Motorola is not playing any naming tricks this time around. With the launch of the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra in 2025, it is unlikely that they will skip ahead to the Motorola Razr 70 Ultra this year.
When it comes to what to expect from the Motorola Edge 70 Ultra, if the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra is any indication, we can expect an interesting phone. Despite its entry-level flagship price of £849.99, the Edge 50 Ultra made some unconventional decisions to stand out from the competition. It featured a slightly lesser Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip but offered a premium design, a sharp 1.5K 144Hz pOLED display, rapid 125W charging, and a well-rounded triple camera system.
While some users had issues with its performance and battery life, overall, the Edge 50 Ultra received positive feedback. If Motorola can continue to make unique choices to keep the price competitive while addressing any previous concerns, the Motorola Edge 70 Ultra could be a standout flagship option for 2026. Stay tuned for more updates on Motorola’s upcoming flagship smartphones.
