Motorola is joining the growing trend of integrating advanced AI capabilities directly onto its smartphones. Following in the footsteps of industry giants like Google and Samsung, Motorola is reportedly bringing its Moto AI suite to the upcoming Edge 60 Fusion, marking a significant expansion beyond its current foldable phones and the Edge 50 Ultra flagship.
Leaked marketing images, shared by Evan Blass, showcase the Moto AI branding prominently, suggesting a fully integrated AI experience. Currently in beta testing, Moto AI leverages Google’s AI technologies, including Gemini, Imagen, and Google Cloud Vertex, offering a range of features designed to enhance user experience.
Initially, Moto AI offered tools like Magic Canvas, which generates images from text descriptions, and Style Sync, which creates wallpapers based on user attire. The beta program has significantly expanded these capabilities, adding practical features such as Catch Me Up, summarizing missed notifications, and Remember This, which allows users to add personal notes to the integrated Journal.

The Journal, powered by integrated search and a memory system, lets users retrieve saved information using natural language descriptions. Further enhancing the AI experience, the Pay Attention feature records, transcribes, and summarizes voice conversations, similar to Apple’s enhanced Notes app. The Edge 60 Fusion is expected to offer this complete Moto AI toolkit out of the box.
Hardware Upgrades and Design Refresh
Beyond the AI enhancements, the Edge 60 Fusion is rumored to boast significant hardware upgrades. While its predecessor, the Edge 50 Fusion, featured a dual-camera setup with a 50MP primary lens and a 13MP ultrawide lens, the Edge 60 Fusion appears to be adding a dedicated zoom camera, further expanding its photographic capabilities.
Leaked images confirm a 50MP optically stabilized main camera utilizing one of Sony’s LYTIA image sensors. The device also retains the popular vegan leather finish, introducing a new sea green color option with a unique textile-inspired texture.

A notable design change is the shift from the sloping sides of the Edge 50 Fusion to a quad-curved display with symmetrical bezels, reminiscent of the OnePlus 7 Pro. The centrally-positioned selfie camera interrupts the otherwise seamless display aesthetic.
Anticipated Launch and Availability
While detailed specifications and an official launch date remain undisclosed, industry speculation suggests an April release, aligning with the previous Edge 50 series launch timeframe. The Motorola Edge 60 Fusion promises a compelling blend of advanced AI capabilities, upgraded camera technology, and a refreshed design, positioning it as a strong contender in the competitive smartphone market.
