Many rumors claim that Motorola is preparing the global launch of its new high-end models equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.
But the most recent news suggests that the Motorola Edge 40 Pro will reach the European market with a higher price than its predecessor.
Motorola Edge 40 Pro arrives in Europe with a price of 899 euros
At the end of last year, Motorola officially introduced the new top-of-the-range Moto X40 to the Chinese market, which came equipped with the latest high-end processor from Qualcomm.
Rumors indicate that now the Lenovo-owned brand is preparing to launch this series in the global market. Most likely, the specifications will be the same, but the trade designation will be different, following the Edge nomenclature.
More recent news realize that there will be a difference in relation to the previous model. At least on the more advanced Edge 40 Pro model. This flagship will arrive in Europe with a price of 899 euros.
What is the difference? Well, this year the price has suffered inflation and this smartphone comes with a starting price of more than 100 euros.
