After unveiling the X70 Air in October 2025 (an affordable ultra-thin smartphone), Lenovo-owned smartphone brand Motorola is preparing to launch its successor, the X70 Air Pro, in the Chinese market soon (via an official Weibo post).
The brand has officially teased the phone and hinted that Motorola’s next ultra-slim smartphone could get an incredible camera update that might make the iPhone Air look dated.
An ultra-thin smartphone with professional-class cameras
As per the latest teaser for the Moto In other words, Moto’s upcoming slim phone will offer such a compelling hardware advantage that it leaves little to no room for comparison with Apple’s single rear-facing camera flagship.
For those who are still up to date: The Moto Although there is no word yet on the exact specifications, the third camera will be equipped with a special periscope zoom lens.
Although the company hasn’t mentioned anything about the exact camera configurations, the third camera could have a slightly lower resolution than the existing ones (perhaps 12MP or 10MP). But it will still be the X70 Air Pro, the first thin smartphone with a triple camera, which puts it in a league of its own (due to the lack of competition).
The teaser also mentions “AI” as one of the keywords, suggesting that the company may equip the smartphone with numerous AI-based features.
The highly anticipated successor to the X70 Air does not yet have a launch date, but could hit the market in January 2026. In the Chinese market it will be available as the X70 Air Pro, but globally it should be sold as the “Edge 70 Pro” (as the X70 Air debuted as the Edge 70 in markets like Europe and India).
If you’re hesitant about the ultra-slim smartphone segment due to a lack of camera variety, the X70 Air Pro or Edge 70 Pro solves that problem (assuming Moto launches the phone in the US, which it should).
