Introducing Motorola’s stunning new motorola edge 60 fusion

Published

on

Packed with premium features: smarter, highly personalised AI;
world-first camera features; Pantone Validated Colours and
the brightest display in the category – all for just $699

SYDNEY, May 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Mobile communications leader, Motorola, has announced the launch of the highly anticipated motorola edge 60 fusion in Australia.

On sale from Thursday 22 May, the motorola edge 60 fusion introduces new highly evolved moto ai[12] features which are more intuitive than any previous models and set to transform daily interactions. With the world’s first Sony LYTIATM 700C camera validated by Pantone, plus the brightest display in the category[1] with Pantone Validated Colours[10], it produced the most outstanding, true-to-life imagery. The battery can power up for a full-day battery in just eight minutes . 

Priced at just $699, the motorola edge 60 fusion features a tactile leather-inspired finish for an added layer of elegance. The colours of Slipstream, Amazonite and Zephyr have been designed in conjunction with Pantone Colour InstituteTM.  

Corning® Gorilla® Glass 7i protects the device with 2x better drop and scratch performance[7]. It also meets military standards for durability – ideal to face scorching summer days as high as 60°C – even blazing temperatures inside a parked car! It also withstands up to 95% humidity, the kind found in coastal areas[8]. Its worry-free underwater protection is designed to withstand submersion in up to 1.5 meters of fresh water for 30 minutes, so being dropped in the water is one less thing to worry about[9].

FULL TECH SPECS:

Everyday moments made easier with moto ai

Artificial Intelligence is central to Motorola’s innovation, enhancing all facets of its technology. With a quick prompt like ‘Catch me up’ moto ai delivers concise, tailored summaries[5] of what matters most. Users can skip the endless scrolling and focus on staying on top of their day with clarity and ease. Expanded app coverage – including WhatsApp calls – and customisable summaries put the user in control, while quick actions like returning calls or replying to messages make staying connected easy.

Capturing screenshots, photos, and notes is easy with moto ai’s ‘Remember this and Recall’ automatically analysing and tagging them. If you need more detail, add a note yourself. Later, simply ask, “What was I getting for Dad?” and moto ai will pull up exactly what’s needed, like that screenshot of a polo shirt.

Users can stay focused with moto ai’s ‘Pay attention’, allowing moto ai to handle the notes. With live transcription and speaker identification, type or press ‘Pay Attention’ in the search bar to start recording automatically. Your session is transcribed in real time, so you can stay engaged without missing a word.

Motorola hasn’t just strengthened its existing moto ai features, but equipped the edge 60 fusion with new AI capabilities that will transform daily interactions: Next Move, Playlist Studio, and Image Studio.

With Motorola’s Next Move, users can receive tailored recommendations based on what’s on their screen, whether a recipe or travel plans, moto ai gives suggested next steps – ideal for beginners and AI enthusiasts alike who want to understand what AI can do for them.

Users can turn to Playlist Studio to set the tone for the day, using on-screen content or a prompt within the moto ai app to curate a perfect playlist, while Image Studio[11] helps bring fresh entertainment to group chats and social media, using generative AI creation and editing capabilities to turn ideas into images, avatars, stickers, and wallpapers.

Content creation continues to be an area significantly enhanced by moto ai, bringing a cinematic effect to everyday moments, moto ai works behind the scenes to deliver the best possible photos and videos. The Photo Enhancement Engine applies precise colour, brightness, and texture adjustments, as well as noise reduction to content captured, bringing it to life with exceptional clarity and vibrancy.

Smartphone essentials engineered with the premium quality you want 

The motorola edge 60 fusion offers the best of the best when it comes to essential features. The camera is not just a first for Motorola, but the world, powered by Sony LYTIATM 700C sensor and featuring OIS video stabilisation, users can effortlessly shoot like a pro and curate standout photos. With colours validated by Pantone, users can be confident that they are documenting the world as they see it, true to life. 

Impressive imagery requires an impressive display, and the motorola edge 60 fusion delivers Motorola’s sharpest, brightest display ever. The 6.7″ pOLED display reveals the full potential of content, even in particularly sunny environments. Users can enjoy a clear, vibrant picture with Pantone Validated Colours[10], plus sharper detail and less pixelation thanks to Super HD resolution (1220p), delivering 13% more resolution than standard Full HD (1080p) displays. In addition, it can reach a peak brightness of up to 4500 nits – 2.8x brighter than the previous generation motorola edge[3,4]. 

These groundbreaking essentials require an impressive battery to support, and Motorola has delivered just that with a 5200mAh battery and 68W TurboPowerTM charging, allowing users to power up for a full-day battery in just eight minutes[2]. 

From its exceptional camera, to the stunning display, all can be enjoyed stutter-free, with the ultrafast MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chipset ensuring no annoying stops and starts, plus up to additional 12GB of RAM[9] with RAM Boost. 

Twice as tough: Durability and craftsmanship like never before 

The motorola edge 60 fusion is the epitome of quality craftsmanship and purposeful design, featuring a leather-inspired finish that gives you a touch of luxury and an added layer of elegance. In another example of maximising Motorola’s unique partnership with Pantone, the device’s aesthetic is elevated further thanks to specially curated hues – Slipstream, Amazonite and Zephyr – that have been designed in conjunction with Pantone Colour InstituteTM.

Its beautiful finish is built to last, featuring Corning® Gorilla® Glass 7i, the device’s display is protected with 2x better drop and scratch performance[7]. The motorola edge 60 fusion also meets military standards for durability, thanks to its MIL-STG 810H rating, all while maintaining a sophisticated, elegant look-and-feel. It’s protected against extreme temperatures including harsh winters as cold as -20°C or scorching summer days as high as 60°C – even the blazing temperatures inside a parked car. It also withstands up to 95% humidity, the kind found in coastal areas[8]. 

Complementing its tough build is its worry-free underwater protection. The motorola edge 60 fusion is engineered to give you peace of mind with IP68 and IP69 ratings, offering superior protection against dust, direct, sand, and high-pressure water. Plus, it’s designed to withstand submersion in up to 1.5 meters of fresh water for 30 minutes, so being dropped in the water is one less thing to worry about[9].

The motorola edge 60 fusion is available to buy from 22 May, RRP $699. Stockists will include JB Hi-Fi, Harvey Norman, Officeworks, The Good Guys, Amazon, and motorola.com.au. Colour availability may vary store-to-store.

Beyondsoft Showcases Financial AI Solutions for Southeast Asian Markets at Hong Kong FinTech Week 2026

Company presents financial technology platforms and shares experience in adapting solutions for Southeast Asian markets

HONG KONG, Nov. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Beyondsoft showcased its financial AI and digital solutions at Hong Kong FinTech Week x StartmeupHK 2026, where the company also shared its experience of adapting fintech capabilities developed in China to the needs of Southeast Asian markets.

The company presented its AI agent platform, mobile application development platform and enterprise digital currency payment collection system. Its team met with financial institutions, technology companies and industry organisations to discuss AI applications, implementation challenges and opportunities for collaboration across the region.

AI and Digital Solutions for Financial Services

Beyondsoft’s AI agent platform combines large language models with industry knowledge bases to support risk management, oversight of funds, automated regulatory reporting and targeted customer engagement. The platform is designed to bring AI into financial workflows and help institutions explore end-to-end automation of core business processes.

Built on Beyondsoft’s proprietary technology, the mobile application development platform supports financial apps across multiple device environments and enables faster updates, helping teams improve development and delivery efficiency.

The enterprise digital currency payment collection system provides payment collection services for financial institutions and corporate clients through a customised software-as-a-service model.

Conversations at the exhibition focused on where financial AI agents could be most useful, how to implement them and how to assess their business value. The team also discussed potential partnerships in mobile financial services and digital payments.

Adapting China’s Fintech Experience to Southeast Asian Markets

As part of the event, Ariel Lin, who leads Beyondsoft’s Innovation Lab and AI Practice, delivered a presentation on adapting China’s financial AI capabilities to Southeast Asian markets.

Drawing on China’s experience in core banking, AI-powered lending at scale and generative AI in production, Lin emphasised that international expansion requires more than exporting products. Technical expertise, experienced people and proven delivery practices are equally important.

Customer expectations, operations and infrastructure vary across Southeast Asia. Technology providers need to adapt their solutions to each market and work with local teams to build the skills needed to maintain and develop them. Technology transfer and knowledge sharing can help local businesses build these capabilities over time.

Addressing Local Regulatory Requirements

The presentation also examined differences in regulatory requirements across Southeast Asia, with examples from Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. Topics included data protection, biometric identity verification, the fairness and explainability of AI-assisted decisions, and financial data sharing.

For cross-border projects, these requirements need to be considered from the outset. Data use must comply with applicable purpose limitations and consent requirements. Biometric applications require attention to liveness detection and accuracy, while AI-assisted decisions need to address fairness and explainability. Financial data sharing must also comply with local banking secrecy and credit information requirements.

Lin emphasised that compliance needs to be built into solution design and implementation to help financial institutions manage the risks of deploying AI across markets.

Experience in Cross-Border Delivery

Beyondsoft’s work for the overseas branches of a Chinese global bank illustrated the demands of cross-border technology delivery. The projects covered personal and corporate mobile banking, credit card applications, mobile workplace tools and mobile learning platforms.

The work required experience in financial systems development, coordination across platforms and complex project delivery. For institutions operating across borders, individual applications also need to work together, support business continuity and meet regional requirements.

With its International Headquarters in Singapore, Beyondsoft continues to connect technology expertise from China with business needs in Southeast Asia. Drawing on its financial technology experience and global service network, the company will explore AI applications and service models suited to regional markets, working with industry partners to bring AI into financial business processes.
