By the end of 2022, Motorola Moto X40 is in line to launch

The Moto X30 (internationally known as the Moto Edge 30 Pro) was first introduced by Motorola in China in December 2021. It appears that the Moto X40, the X30’s replacement, is currently being developed by the Lenovo-owned firm.

Recently, the device was discovered on China’s 3C certification website. And today, a well-known tipster revealed a few of the important details of the future smartphone. Here are some specifics.

When responding to a user’s comment on Weibo, tipster Digital Chat Station disclosed that the next Moto X40 smartphone will feature an FHD + display and be powered by the as-yet-unannounced Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 CPU (Via ITHome). The smartphone also reportedly has a 50-megapixel primary camera.

The tipper also claims that the Moto X40 will be inexpensive and may be among the most cost-effective smartphones with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip.

As previously noted, the purported Moto X40 with model number XT2301-5 was recently discovered on the 3C certification. According to the listing, the phone supports 68W rapid charging. The X40 might debut as the Moto Edge 40 Pro in the international market, just as the model from the previous year.
