Motorola Edge 70 Max Review

Motorola Edge 70 Max: A Game-Changer in Battery Life

Motorola has just launched the Edge 70 Max in the UK and Europe, boasting an impressive battery and charging setup that surpasses its competitors. The device is equipped with a massive 7100mAh silicon-carbon battery, leaving the Samsung Galaxy S26 and Google Pixel 10 in the dust.

The Edge 70 Max also features rapid charging speeds of 90W, allowing users to get a day’s worth of power in just six minutes. Although the 90W TurboPower charger is sold separately and currently unavailable in the UK, the compatible 125W charger can be purchased for £49.99.

Qi2 Wireless Charging and Durability

The Edge 70 Max has built-in Qi2 magnets, enabling convenient wireless charging at up to 25W and compatibility with a range of magnetic accessories, including those designed for the Apple iPhone and Google Pixel series.

In terms of durability, the device has a combined IP68 and IP69 rating for water and dust resistance, as well as military-grade MIL-STD-810H compliance. The expansive 6.82-inch AMOLED display has a higher resolution than the Samsung Galaxy S26 and Google Pixel 10.

Smart Compromises and Impressive Specs

Motorola has made smart compromises to keep the price mid-range, opting for the regular Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset instead of the top-of-the-line Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The device runs on Android 16 out of the box and will receive three major Android OS upgrades and five years of security patches.

While the camera specs may not be on par with the best camera phones on the market, such as the Samsung Galaxy S26 and Google Pixel 10, the Edge 70 Max appears to tick all the boxes for those seeking a device with excellent battery life, fast charging, and durability.
