Motorola Announces Another Flagship, the Motorola Edge Lite
July 12, 2020
For the last few years, Motorola had focused on entry-level and mid-range smartphones, diversifying its product portfolio with the Moto E, Moto G, and the Motorola One series and the rebirth of the Motorola Razr followed by the launch of the Edge and Edge+ 5G flagship devices in April this year. A third premium 5G device – The Motorola Edge Lite – may be coming to the U.S. on the Verizon network. Leaker Evan Blass (aka @evleaks) recently made the renders of the upcoming Motorola smartphone available via their Patreon. The model number, XT2075-3, was recently certified by FCC and believed to be called the Motorola Edge Lite by another leaker Ishan Agarwal (via Pricebaba).

On the IMEIs listed in the FCC listing for this device corresponded to a “Moto G 5G Plus.” There are two different models of the said phone – XT2075-1 and XT2075-3 – and it’s the former could be available in the U.S. on Verizon as the Motorola Edge Lite while the latter could be a global variant for markets such as Europe, Japan, Middle East, and LATAM as the Moto G 5G or Moto G 5G Plus. Blass’ digital render shown above, portrays a quad-camera arrangement on the back and dual hole-punch cameras on the front. The rendering also confirms the primary camera in this arrangement will utilize a 48MP Samsung GM1 sensor, the other three sensors will have sensors of 16MP, 8MP, and 5MP. The two cameras on the front are likely to include an 8MP primary camera and a 2MP depth sensor. There is a volume rocker on the right side of the phone adjacent to the power button which also seems to feature the fingerprint scanner. On the other edge is another button, which is most likely a dedicated hotkey for Google Assistant. Like the Motorola Edge, the display will measure 6.7-inches, have a resolution of 2520×1080, and a refresh rate of 90Hz.
