The Motorola Edge 70 Max is expected to become the second Snapdragon 8 Gen 5-powered smartphone after the premium Motorola Signature, which debuted earlier this year. Since it is part of the Edge 70 series, it is likely to be positioned between the Motorola Signature and the Edge 70 Pro+.
To recall, the Edge 70 Pro+ is priced at Rs 47,999 in India. Therefore, the Edge 70 Max could be priced at around Rs 60,000.
According to a recent IDC report, Motorola became the fifth-largest smartphone brand in India with an 8.9 percent market share. By offering smartphones across various price segments, Motorola is strengthening its presence in the country and appealing to a wider range of buyers.
