It is rumored to feature a 7,100mAh battery, a premium AMOLED display, and support for fast wireless charging. The first “Max” in the Motorola Edge family also reportedly comes with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset. Motorola is on its way to reclaim its lost spot among the makers of best-selling value phones. And a key participant in that campaign is an upcoming flagship killer, the Motorola Edge 70 Max, which is the first Edge device of its caliber in several years. We’ve already seen some official teasers and leaks suggesting its likely features, and a more recent one points to a massive battery upgrade and high-end display. According to the latest leak from Roland Quandt on Bluesky, the Motorola Edge 70 Max will feature massive upgrades in battery life, screen, and processing power compared to the other Edge 70 devices, including the already launched Pro and Pro+ variants. It’s supposed to sit atop all of these devices and is the first Edge phone in several years to come with a flagship Snapdragon 8-series chip — the last one being the Motorola 50 Ultra, which launched two years ago with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3. This one, however, comes with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, which, despite the Elite badging, still delivers enough power for most demanding workloads.
