Motorola has officially introduced the Motorola Signature 27, its latest premium flagship smartphone, featuring a 200MP periscope telephoto camera, a Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chipset, and a 7,000mAh battery. The phone will roll out across international markets in the coming months, with sales dates varying by region.
The company previously teased the Signature 27 during the Snapdragon Summit in September, highlighting its new processor, camera hardware, and redesigned cooling system. Motorola has now revealed the phone’s full specifications, pricing, and regional availability.
According to its official specifications, the phone’s key highlight is its rear‑camera setup. It includes a 50‑megapixel Sony LYTIA L910 main sensor with optical image stabilization (OIS) and LOFIC technology, a 200‑megapixel periscope telephoto lens with 3× optical zoom and up to 100× Super Zoom, plus a 50‑megapixel ultra‑wide camera.
The device also adds a dedicated Event Vision Sensor (EVS) to track fast‑moving subjects, paired with an Action Shot capture mode. A report from Unbox.ph notes the phone scores two points below the Pura 80 Ultra on DxOMark, which currently holds the second‑highest smartphone‑camera ranking globally.
The Signature 27 also packs a 7,000mAh battery with 90W wired and 50W wireless charging. Motorola has equipped it with a 6.78-inch Extreme AMOLED Duo Tandem display featuring 1.5K resolution, Dolby Vision support, and up to 12,000 nits of peak brightness.
Under the hood, the phone runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chipset. It also features Motorola’s ArcticMesh cooling system, which uses diamond-infused thermal gel and a vapor chamber that is 40% larger than the previous generation. For software support, the device ships with Android 17 and comes with a promise of seven years of Android OS upgrades and security updates.
