Motorola is gearing up for a really busy year with the The new Moto G Stylus 2026, the Moto Tag 2 tracker, and the powerful Edge 70 UltraThree very different devices, but all aimed at strengthening the brand's catalog in key ranges: mid-range with stylus, location accessories and premium high-end with stylus.
In recent weeks, leaks have surfaced Promotional images, design details, and many of the expected features of these products. Although official specifications are lacking in many areas, it's already possible to get a pretty good idea of what Motorola intends with each of them and how they might fit into the Android market in 2026.
Moto G Stylus 2026: evolutionary design, integrated stylus and a very polished mid-range
The undisputed star of the leaks is the Moto G Stylus 2026, codenamed “Dallas”, a mid-range phone that once again focuses on the integrated pencil in the chassis, a format that few brands explore beyond Samsung in the high-end range.
To begin with, the leaked images show the terminal in Two very striking colors: lavender and dark grayAlthough the commercial names of these finishes are not yet known, it is clear that Motorola is following the line of the previous generation: sober tones but with a touch of personality, especially in the lavender model that seeks to attract attention without being strident.
The body is once again betting on a finished in “eco leather” on the backThis material, which Motorola has used extensively in recent years, offers several advantages over traditional glass: better grip, fewer fingerprints, and a warmer feel. As seen in other Motorola models, this finish also holds up remarkably well over time, without peeling or deteriorating easily.
Integrated into the back is a camera module with four holes: three cameras and an LED flashLocated in the upper left corner, the camera module protrudes gradually, with a ramp-like design covered in the same eco-leather as the rest of the cover. This results in a visually cleaner and more uniform design, without the bulky camera bump found on other phones.
The phone's frame also draws attention because opts for virtually flat linesAlthough it has a slight curve towards the edges so it's not uncomfortable to hold. A curious detail is that the frame color changes depending on the back panel color, so the lavender and dark gray models are not only different from the back, but also from the side, reinforcing that sense of a cohesive design.
As expected, the stylus is once again the star of the show. The Moto G Stylus 2026 will feature a Specific silo for storing the pencil at the bottom of the chassisThis is a hallmark of this family of styluses. The idea is that the stylus is always within easy reach, without relying on special cases or external accessories, making it much more practical for quick notes, signatures, or small edits.
Screen, internal hardware and expected memory in the Moto G Stylus 2026
On a technical level, the information is still incomplete, but quite a few things can already be anticipated. Everything points to Motorola repeating with a 6,7-inch OLED panel with 120Hz refresh rateThis is very much in line with what the previous model offered. This type of screen is a perfect fit for a phone designed for stylus use, as it offers good touch response, deep blacks, and a very smooth experience when navigating the interface or writing with the stylus.
As for the processor, leaks suggest we'll see a mid-range chip from Qualcomm or MediaTekThe previous generation Moto G Stylus featured a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 processor, so speculation points to its direct successor or an equivalent from the MediaTek Dimensity or 7 series. Whichever option is chosen, the aim is to maintain its position as a solid mid-range device, with enough power for everyday use, moderate multitasking, and even gaming, but without approaching the price of a flagship model.
In terms of memory, the device is expected to arrive on the market with 8GB and 12GB RAM configurations, accompanied by 128 GB or 256 GB of internal storage, possibly with UFS storageOne of the differentiating factors compared to some rivals will almost certainly be the possibility of expanding the space using a microSD cardThis is something Motorola has respected in previous generations and that many users still value, especially if they take a lot of photos or download series and music to watch offline.
In terms of battery life, the Moto G Stylus 2026 aims to repeat the winning formula: 5.000 mAh battery with 68W wired fast chargingThis combination should offer ample battery life for a heavy day of use, even with the screen at 120Hz, and fairly fast charging to recover a good percentage in just a few minutes plugged in. Some leaks even hint at the possible inclusion of 15W wireless chargingThis would put it a step above many mid-range phones that still lack this feature.
Another key feature of this device will be the Water and dust resistance, with an IP68 certification According to leaked data, if confirmed, this would mean a model much better protected against splashes, heavy rain, or even brief immersions—something that a few years ago was almost exclusive to the high-end range. Everything points to the 2026 Moto G Stylus coming standard with Android 16 pre-installed, fitting in with the planned 2026 schedule and allowing buyers to enjoy the latest system features from day one.
Cameras, stylus experience, and estimated price
The Moto G Stylus 2026's camera setup will continue to feature a versatile configuration, with three rear sensors: main, ultra-wide and a third sensor for macro or depthAlthough no specific resolution figures have been leaked, the precedent of the previous model suggests a 50 MP main sensor accompanied by lenses designed to cover most everyday uses: wide scenes, portraits and close-ups.
It's not entirely out of the question that Motorola might surprise us and include a telephoto lens instead of a macro or a depth sensorHowever, given its positioning in the product range and the series' history, a simpler, more cost-effective configuration seems more likely. In any case, the brand typically includes its own software with these kits to enhance processing, night mode, and portraits.
Regarding the stylus, it's worth tempering expectations. In previous generations, the Moto G Stylus's stylus It did not offer advanced features such as pressure sensitivity, palm rejection, or S Pen-style pressure levels.In practice, it behaved like a "refined finger," useful for taking quick notes, making annotated screenshots, navigating more precisely, or signing documents, but without aspiring to replace a professional graphics tablet.
Everything indicates that the Moto G Stylus 2026 will follow the same philosophy: a stylus designed for casual and practical useMore so than for illustrators or design professionals. Even so, having a stylus integrated into a mid-range mobile phone makes it a fairly unique product in its segment, ideal for students, workers who sign or annotate many documents, or users who simply prefer to write certain things by hand.
Regarding the price and release date, leaks agree on placing the launch in early Q2 2026...within a similar timeframe to the previous generation, which launched around April. The expected price range is between... 399 and 449 dollarsThis would allow it to compete in the upper part of the mid-range, with added differentiation thanks to the stylus and the combination of a 120Hz OLED screen, large battery and fast charging.
In terms of size and weight, the Moto G Stylus 2026 is expected to It will remain at similar levels to its predecessor, probably below 200 grams.Which, considering the 5.000 mAh battery and the integrated stylus, is quite reasonable and should allow for a good balance between ergonomics and battery life.
Moto Tag 2: the Bluetooth tracker that wants to reign in the Find My Device network
The second major protagonist of these leaks is the Moto Tag 2, the new generation of Motorola's Bluetooth tracker, designed for integrate into the Android device location networkWhile the original model already attracted attention in 2024, this new version aims to refine key details without reinventing the formula.
Leaked images show the Moto Tag 2 in Two colors: beige and orangeThe first option is more discreet and goes with almost any keychain, backpack, or luggage, while the second is much more eye-catching and can be ideal for quickly locating the accessory, for example, in a travel bag or inside a car. It's very likely that Motorola will use more "marketable" names for these colors, but for now, the design is clean and minimalist.
Aesthetically, the Moto Tag 2 maintains a Very similar in shape to the first Moto Tag, with a compact body designed to be hung or integrated into keychainsHowever, the new promotional image reveals a detail that has sparked considerable speculation: a small cutout at the top of the device which did not exist in the first generation.
It's not entirely clear what the function of that cutout is, but there are several reasonable theories. One of them is that it's... a second hole for the speakerThis would allow us to increase the volume of the audible alert when searching for the device. Another possibility is that it could serve as new system for opening the battery compartmentMaking the process easier with the help of a clip, SIM tool or similar, something that would be welcome, since in the first Moto Tag the sliding cover was not exactly easy to manipulate.
Beyond the design, the Moto Tag 2 will maintain the focus of its predecessor as tracker compatible with Google's Find My Device network (also referred to as Find Hub in some contexts), which allows you to locate lost or forgotten items by leveraging the enormous base of connected Android devices. The first generation was the first and, for quite some time, the only tracker in this ecosystem with UWB (Ultra Wideband), a technology that allows you to locate the position of the tag very precisely when you are nearby, similar to what Apple's AirTag offers.
Expected improvements in battery life, button feel, and durability
Although the leaks haven't provided in-depth details about the internal specifications of the Moto Tag 2, they have revealed several specific improvements expected compared to the original model. One of the most talked-about is the improved tactile feedback of the buttonsThis translates into a clearer and more satisfying tap, which is important in a device that is often used "blindly," without looking at it directly.
There is also talk of a Improved range compared to the first Moto TagThe first generation offered around a year of battery life with a replaceable coin cell battery, so it's reasonable to expect the Moto Tag 2 to maintain or exceed that figure, whether by optimizing power consumption, slightly changing the battery type, or improving the firmware that manages the use of UWB and Bluetooth.
Another practically confirmed point is the presence of IP67 certificationThis means it's dustproof and can withstand immersion in fresh water up to one meter deep for 30 minutes. This makes the Moto Tag 2 a much more reliable accessory for everyday use: it can get wet, spend time in a puddle, or endure heavy rain without fear of damage.
Of course, all of this is combined with integration into Google's Find My Device network and continued UWB support. In fact, the original Moto Tag took some time to officially activate UWB via an app update, but once it did, it became firmly established as a very attractive option within the Android ecosystemThis second generation arrives at a time when competition has grown, with alternatives from brands like Chipolo, Pebblebee or Tile, but the combination of UWB, native integration with Android and an affordable price could give it a significant advantage.
Regarding availability, there is no clear date marked on the calendar. The first Moto Tag was launched in August de 2024 And since then, there hasn't been a clear cyclical pattern in these types of accessories. It's entirely possible that Motorola will take advantage of the Moto G Stylus 2026 launch to also showcase the Moto Tag 2, but for now, this is more of a logical conjecture than a substantial leak. As for the price, it's expected to be very similar to that of the original model, which launched for $29,99, with perhaps a slight upward adjustment if the hardware improvements are significant.
Motorola Edge 70 Ultra: the flagship phone that joins the stylus club
The third major pillar of this wave of information is the Motorola Edge 70 Ultra, the next the company's top-of-the-range "non-folding" modelAn image of this model had already been leaked a few weeks ago, showing the device in two colors, but now a very relevant detail has been discovered: it will have stylus support.
This information is especially interesting because the "normal" Motorola Edge 70 was already presented previously and It does not offer stylus compatibility.The Ultra variant, on the other hand, will support the use of a stylus, which positions it as a direct alternative to other high-end models that include this feature, especially Samsung's Galaxy S Ultra family, which has dominated this small market niche for years.
It is not yet confirmed whether the Edge 70 Ultra stylus It will be integrated into the phone's body itself.It's unclear whether it will feature a built-in stylus like the Moto G Stylus series, or if it will be an optional external accessory stored in a specific case. However, given Motorola's experience with integrated styluses and the leaks suggesting it will use similar technology to the Moto G Stylus, it wouldn't be surprising to see a similar system in this flagship device.
It should be noted, however, that everything points to the Edge 70 Ultra's stylus It won't be as advanced as Samsung's S Pen.The closest comparison is, again, the Moto G Stylus, where the stylus lacks pressure sensitivity, multiple levels, advanced palm rejection, and Bluetooth gestures. In other words, Motorola's stylus is an accessory geared towards comfort and basic precision, not a professional tool for digital artists.
Even with these limitations, the fact that a high-end phone like the Edge 70 Ultra offers stylus support makes it A very interesting option for those who want the power of a flagship and the convenience of an integrated styluswithout necessarily paying the premium or entering another brand's ecosystem. All of this is in addition to the other high-level specifications expected of a Motorola Ultra: a next-generation processor, very ambitious cameras, and a top-of-the-line screen.
When it arrives on the market, the Edge 70 Ultra will become one of the few current premium smartphones that combine cutting-edge hardware with native stylus supportIf Motorola manages to complement this support with a good set of applications adapted to the stylus (quick notes, advanced screen capture, productivity tools, etc.), it could have a strong argument to differentiate itself within the high-end Android range.
With all the leaks about the Moto G Stylus 2026, the Moto Tag 2, and the Edge 70 Ultra, it's pretty clear that Motorola is betting on a continuity strategy A very measured approach, introducing targeted improvements where they truly add value: a mid-range phone with an increasingly comprehensive stylus, a more refined tracker for the Find My Device network, and a flagship device that joins the stylus trend. If the price and release date predictions hold true, the brand could face 2026 with a very balanced catalog, catering to users seeking a practical and distinctive phone, as well as those needing location accessories or a top-of-the-range model with a bit more personality.
