Motorola kicked off 2022 with the launch of the Moto G Stylus earlier this month. Now, it’s gearing up for another smartphone launch: a refreshed version of the Edge X30 that debuted in China in December. The phone is expected to be called the Moto Edge 30 Pro in the US and is set to launch on February 24. While we already know a lot about the phone thanks to recent leaks, a new report from WinFuture leaves almost nothing to the imagination.

Previous reports suggest that the Edge Pro 30 will have an in-display fingerprint sensor, unlike the side-mounted scanner on the Edge X30. The rear design is said to be slightly different, with the Moto logo shifted from the center to the bottom left. However, WinFuture believes that the Moto Edge 30 Pro will be almost identical to the Edge X30, both in terms of design and features.

According to the report, the Moto Edge 30 Pro is equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset — Qualcomm's top-of-the-line SoC that powers phones like the super-premium Galaxy S22 Ultra. The front of the phone features a 6.7-inch flat AMOLED panel with 1080p resolution and a high refresh rateof up to 144 Hz, as well as a cutout for a 60 MP camera. On the back, there's a triple camera setup, with a 50MP f/1.9 main sensor that supports OIS, a 50MP f/2.2 ultra-wide shooter, and a 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor. The phone is said to pack a 5,000 mAh battery with support for Motorola's 68W TurboPower fast charging feature. On the software side, it should run Android 12. Other specs include NFC, Bluetooth 5.2, and Wi-Fi 6E. On the Edge 30 Pro's memory options, the report mentions only one variant of the smartphone with 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 128GB of UFS3.1 internal storage.

The Edge X30 starts at just $471, but considering phones like last year's Moto Edge are priced around the same in the US, you should expect the Edge 30 Pro to be priced a bit higher. Still, the Edge 30 Pro looks uncharacteristically tempting for a Motorola phone — assuming it doesn't come with a hefty price tag.
