The Motorola Edge 20 is set to launch in India on August 17 at 12 noon, and the company is billing it as the thinnest 5G smartphone ever released in the country at just 6.99mm slim. With an industry-first combination of the Snapdragon 778G processor and 11 5G bands, plus a 144Hz AMOLED display and a 108MP primary camera, the Motorola Edge 20 looks like a serious contender in the mid-range 5G segment.
Motorola Edge 20 Specifications
The Motorola Edge 20 packs a 6.7-inch Full HD+ Ultra Smooth AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ support. The touch sampling rate reaches an impressive 576Hz, making it one of the most responsive displays in its price range. Under the hood sits the Snapdragon 778G chipset — a first for India — paired with 8GB of RAM to deliver desktop-class performance for gaming, video calling, and everyday multitasking.

Camera and 5G Connectivity
On the camera front, the Motorola Edge 20 features a versatile triple rear camera system. The 108MP primary lens with a high-resolution sensor handles everyday and landscape photography, while the 16MP ultra-wide lens adds macro vision support for close-up shots. The 8MP 3X telephoto lens comes with Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS) for steady zoom photography. Selfie fans get a 32MP front camera that handles both stills and video calls with clarity.
5G connectivity is arguably the biggest talking point of the Motorola Edge 20. Supporting 11 5G bands, it is likely to be the first smartphone in India to offer this many bands in a single device, giving users a broader choice of 5G networks across different telecom operators as India's 5G rollout accelerates. A 4,500mAh battery with 30W fast charging ensures you stay powered through intensive use, and the phone runs on Android 11 out of the box.
