Motorola phone codenamed 'Urus' to come with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 SoC
Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 flagship SoC in September and followed it up with a non-Elite version two days ago. The OnePlus 15R, launching on December 17, will be the first smartphone in international markets to have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 under the hood. Qualcomm confirmed that Motorola will announce a smartphone with this chip soon, but there's no word from the Lenovo-owned brand about it yet. However, reliable leakster Evan Blass has revealed that an upcoming Motorola smartphone codenamed "Urus" will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5.
Blass revealed that Urus is a "non-foldable flagship" and will likely be branded as the Edge 70 Ultra. If you are wondering about a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered Motorola phone, it could be the Razr 70 Ultra.
