Motorola Edge 60 Stylus Debuts in India at ₹22,999: Affordable S Pen Rival Arrives

Motorola just dropped a stylish surprise for productivity lovers in India   the Motorola Edge 60 Stylus, a mid-range smartphone that mixes powerful internals with a built-in stylus, vibrant display, and clean Android 15 experience. Priced at just ₹22,999, this phone is setting the stage for a fresh rivalry in the stylus game, without forcing users to break the bank like Samsung’s Ultra series does.

Price, Variants, and Availability

The Motorola Edge 60 Stylus comes in a single variant featuring 8GB LPDDR4x RAM and 256GB UFS 2.2 storage, which should be more than enough for multitasking, media consumption, and on-the-go work. It will be available for purchase starting April 23 via Flipkart, Motorola India’s official website, and select offline stores.

Buyers can pick between two Pantone-certified colour options: 

  • Pantone Surf the Web
  • Pantone Gibraltar Sea

These finishes are topped off with a vegan leather back, lending a premium and grippy feel to the handset.

Display and Build: Premium Feel on a Budget

The device boasts a 6.7-inch Full HD+ pOLED display, supporting 10-bit colour, a 120Hz refresh rate, and an eye-watering 3,000 nits peak brightness. That’s flagship-level visibility in bright sunlight. The front glass is Corning Gorilla Glass 3, ensuring some protection against scratches and drops.

Design-wise, the phone has MIL-STD-810H durability and an IP68 rating, making it both dustproof and water-resistant. A rare find in this price range.

Performance: Snapdragon-Powered Productivity

Under the hood, the Edge 60 Stylus runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset, coupled with Adreno 710 GPU. Whether you're juggling between apps or running graphically demanding games, this setup ensures smooth performance.

It comes with Android 15 out of the box, layered lightly with Motorola’s My UX skin. Motorola promises 2 years of Android updates and 3 years of security patches, making it a great choice for longevity-conscious buyers.

Stylus: Mid-Range S Pen Experience

What sets the Edge 60 Stylus apart is   obviously   the stylus support. Hidden neatly in the bottom-right corner, the stylus can be ejected with a click. Once pulled out, the phone immediately launches Moto Notes, perfect for scribbling down ideas or quick sketches on the fly.

Features include:

  • Handwriting-to-text conversion
  • Sketch-to-image generation via AI
  • Screenshot markup
  • Handwriting calculator
  • Live message creation
  • Quick access shortcuts when the stylus is removed

It lacks the Bluetooth integration seen in the Samsung S Pen, so no remote camera shutter or air gestures here. But at this price point, it offers far more than any other phone in its segment   and with location tracking for the stylus, you won’t have to worry if you misplace it.

Camera: Solid Optics, AI Enhancements

Motorola packed the Edge 60 Stylus with a capable dual-camera setup on the back:

  • 50MP Sony LYT-700C main sensor
  • 13MP ultra-wide angle camera

On the front, there's a 32MP selfie camera, housed within a punch-hole cutout. Expect clear, vibrant selfies and video calls, especially with the help of software enhancements powered by Motorola’s AI.

Battery and Charging

The phone is backed by a 5,000mAh battery that supports 68W TurboPower wired charging and 15W wireless charging. This ensures a full day’s use even for power users, and the fast-charging support means you won’t be tied to the wall for long.

Connectivity & Audio

When it comes to connectivity, the Edge 60 Stylus has all the modern essentials:

  • 5G, Dual 4G VoLTE
  • Wi-Fi (dual-band), Bluetooth 5.4, GPS, NFC

For audio, users get dual stereo speakers tuned with Dolby Atmos, providing immersive sound for content consumption or casual gaming.

Stylus vs Galaxy S25 Ultra: The Affordable Challenger?

Samsung's Galaxy S25 Ultra still reigns supreme in terms of stylus integration, especially with screen-hover and tighter software interaction. However, at over ₹1,00,000, it’s not for everyone.

In contrast, Motorola's offering focuses on accessibility and core stylus features. It's an excellent gateway device for those who’ve always wanted to explore stylus functionality without jumping into the ultra-premium bracket.
