Motorola has just fired up India’s mid-range smartphone race with the official launch of the Edge 60. Backed by a 10 MP telephoto lens, a punchy pOLED display, and a hefty battery, it’s stepping in with some serious ammo. And it’s bringing more than just one stylish companion along for the ride.
Edge 60 Joins the Family With a Notable Zoom Upgrade
Motorola’s Edge 60 has officially entered the Indian market, joining the Edge 60 Pro, Stylus, and Fusion models. But this one? It’s aiming to be the middle child that refuses to be ignored.
The Edge 60’s head-turning feature is its 10 MP telephoto lens. With 3x optical zoom and up to 30x digital zoom, it’s not exactly a DSLR replacement—but for a phone under ₹26,000, it’s a lot more than a gimmick.
That’s not all. There’s also a 50 MP main camera and another 50 MP ultrawide sensor that doubles as a macro shooter. And if you’re into selfies or 4K vlogs? A 50 MP front camera that shoots 4K should keep creators happy.
In short, Motorola’s gone all in on photography this time. Front, back, close-up, or zoomed in—you’re covered.
Premium Feel With Dust, Water, and Life-Ready Protection
Let’s talk durability for a second—because Motorola certainly did.
The Edge 60 comes with military-grade MIL-STD-810H certification. That’s not marketing jargon; it means the phone can take some real-life knocks and bumps. It also boasts IP68 and IP69 ratings, so it can survive dust storms and an accidental dunk in the pool.
Motorola’s choice of Gorilla Glass 7i for the quad-curved display adds a layer of confidence without adding bulk. And that curved design? Slick without being slippery.
For a device that looks this polished, it’s good to know it’s not just a pretty face.
One sentence here just to break flow.
Screen and Sound That Push the Segment Forward
The display is a 6.7-inch 1.5K Super HD quad-curved pOLED panel, complete with 120 Hz refresh rate and a scorching 4,500 nits of peak brightness. That’s enough to burn through sunlight on a beach day. Okay, not literally, but you get the point.
Colors pop. Text looks sharp. And scrolling? Smooth like butter.
Adding to the media experience is a stereo speaker setup with Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res Audio. It’s not a concert-in-your-pocket level setup, but honestly, for the price, it delivers more than expected.
And there’s something satisfying about loud, balanced sound on a phone that doesn’t crackle at full volume.
What Powers It: MediaTek, Memory, and Hello UI
The Edge 60 skips Qualcomm this time and runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 chip. Paired with 12 GB of LPDDR4X RAM, it manages multitasking like a boss. No major lags, even when juggling camera, games, and apps.
You also get 256 GB of UFS 2.2 storage. Not the fastest in the game, but still quick enough unless you’re running benchmarks all day.
Hello UI on Android 15 is what you get out of the box. It’s clean, fluid, and close enough to stock Android for purists. Motorola’s little tweaks—like gestures and UI theming—add to the appeal without making things bloated.
Here’s a quick overview of key specs for clarity:

Battery and Charging: It Lasts, and Then Some
The phone packs a chunky 5,500 mAh battery. With that pOLED panel and efficient Dimensity chip, you’re looking at well over a day’s usage without breaking a sweat.
And when it’s time to juice up? There’s a 68W charger included in the box. No extra cost. No fuss. Plug it in and you’re looking at 50% charge in under 25 minutes.
That’s handy, especially for folks who constantly forget to charge until the “5% remaining” panic hits.
Here’s the short paragraph you needed. Boom.
Prices, Variants, and Where to Buy
Motorola’s launch is sharp, timed, and price-conscious. The Edge 60 will be available starting June 17 on Flipkart, Motorola’s official site, and top offline retailers. Price? ₹25,999.
It will be offered in Pantone-certified colors:
