After several leaks and rumours, Motorola's Edge 40 Pro was expected to be announced at the recently held Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2023, but the handset did not make an appearance at the Barcelona event. The phone, when announced, will be the successor to the Edge 30 Pro, which was launched in India in February 2022. The phone is expected to be a rebranded version of the Moto X40 available in China. While it did not show up at the MWC 2023, a fresh set of renders for the handset have now surfaced online, hinting at an imminent launch.

The latest renders come from tipster Evan Blass (@evleaks). In a series of Edge 30 Ultra smartphones.

Another image shows the phone being dipped in water hinting at a proper IP rating. While the older model came with an IP52 rating for dust and water resistance, which seems good for splashes, the leaked render shows the phone completely immersed in water, hinting at an IP67 or higher rating instead.

There's also a dual speaker setup with for Dolby Atmos. Unlike the previous model, the renders also reveal a curved edge display, which is a new addition when compared to the older Edge 30 Pro.
