Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ launch tease and color options

The Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ should launch soon, as Motorola has already published first teasers on X as well as on the Indian online store Flipkart. These teasers indicate that the design remains practically unchanged from the Motorola Edge 70 Pro. The Edge 70 Pro+ is expected to be offered in red or turquoise with a fabric texture, or in brown with a wood-look back.

Display and camera layout basics

The display appears to be slightly curved on the left and right sides, while the selfie camera sits in a punch-hole. The square camera module on the back houses three cameras and an LED flash. The label around the flash confirms that a 12 mm ultra-wide-angle camera and an 81 mm telephoto camera are installed, so the telephoto camera offers around 3.5x optical zoom from the main camera.

Camera app and focal length details

A teaser image shows that the camera app supports the 35 mm equivalent focal lengths of 24 mm, 35 mm, 50 mm and 85 mm, but at least with 35 mm and 50 mm, the smartphone has to resort to digital zoom. It is curious how poor the bokeh simulation looks in one of the sample photos shared. Instead of simulating a more or less realistic drop in sharpness that takes the distance of objects into account, Motorola only knows the subject and bokeh maxima.

Portrait mode concerns and market timing

The subject edges are not even recognized correctly. If the portrait mode of the Motorola Edge 70 Pro+ actually works so poorly, it is better not to use it. According to Motorola, the Edge 70 Pro+ will be on the market "soon", but no further details on price, launch date or features are yet known.
