We’ve been hearing about theMotorola Edge 30phones from lots of leaks, not to mention theMoto Edge X30that launched in China in 2021, but up until now Moto hadn’t acknowledged its upcoming series ofAndroid phonesto succeed theEdge 20models.
That’s changed now, though, and in atweetMotorola has teased a new Edge phone coming on February 24. The tweet consists of an image, which you can see above, as well as the hashtag #findyouredge (which tells us this is an Edge phone) and the date 02.24 - that tells us the launch date.

If we have any doubt that this is the Motorola Edge 30, it’s not because we don’t think new Moto Edge mobiles are coming, it’s that we don’t know for sure the new devices will be called the 30 family.
But since they follow the Edge 20 line, which succeeded the original Edge mobiles, it seems pretty likely - not to mention that the Edge X30 already launched, suggesting the next handsets will be the 30 family.
Leaks suggest the highlight of the new phones will be a Moto Edge 30 Ultra, which could have powerful rear cameras and be compatible with a stylus.

That’s not even countingMWC 2022, an annual global smartphone conference, where we’re expecting to see launches from most of the top mobile brands in the world.
We might not have even heard all the launches so far - companies might be keeping them under their belts until nearer the time.
So if you’re a smartphone fan, you’re going to have a lot to enjoy over the next few weeks. But even if you’re not, and are just an average phone buyer looking for a new mobile, we’d recommend waiting until March so you can see all the new devices that are about to launch.
