The handset will sit below the Motorola Edge 40 Pro that debuted in Europe recently. Now, noted tipster Evan Blass has exclusively shared the promotional photos and video of the Motorola Edge 40, showing off the entire design and colour options.
Motorola will soon be unveiling the Edge 40 smartphone in the global market.

In the video, it could be seen that the black variant features a Vegan leather finish on the back. Also, the upcoming phone will arrive with a fluid and sleek design and will provide multidimensional sound with Dolby Atmos support. It could be seen that the device will be water resistant. Even the camera qualities of Motorola Edge 40 were also flaunted in the video.
As revealed by the video, Motorola Edge 40 will be made available in four different color variants: Eclipse black, Nebula green, Lunar Blue and Viva Magenta.
The promo material of this upcoming smartphone has also been revealed which showcased that the smartphone will pack up a dual rear camera setup that includes a 50MP primary camera with OIS support along with a pair of LED flash on the back. As claimed in the video, the smartphone will be arriving with the widest smartphone aperture.

Motorola Edge 40 Renders, Design
The Motorola Edge 40 will arrive in four colours: Eclipse Black, Nebula Green, Lunar Blue, and Viva Magenta. The leaked renders showcase the black and green variants of the phone. Both models can be seen sporting a leather back.
The overall design of the Edge 40 is not too different from its Pro version. The vanilla model has a curved-edge AMOLED panel on the front, and its back panel has a square-shaped camera island, which houses two cameras and a pair of LED flash units. A closer look at the camera module confirms that the Edge 40 is equipped with an OIS-enabled 50-megapixel primary camera.
Motorola’s batwing logo can also be seen on the back panel of the device. The right side of the Edge 40 phone features volume buttons and a power button, whereas its left spine is barren. The bottom side of the device has a speaker grille, a microphone, a USB-C port, and a SIM slot. None of the leaked renders show the top edge of the Edge 40. It is speculated that the Edge 40 will also come in an acrylic-backed version.
