Design, Display, & Build Quality
Starting off with its design, the motorola edge 60 STYLUS simply blends in premium aesthetics, durability, and a vibrant display experience, offering a leather-inspired texture that not only looks stylish but also feels comfortable to hold. The edge 60 STYLUS comes in sleek Vegan Leather design with MIL-STD-810H military grade durability and IP68 dust and water resistance, available in PANTONE Surf the Web and PANTONE Gibraltar Sea, both with leather-inspired backs.
On the front, you get a 6.7-inch pOLED display with 1.5K+ resolution (2,712 x 1,220 pixels), 10-bit color depth (1.07 billion colors), and a smooth 120 Hz refresh rate. Although not a curved display with 144 Hz like the one we saw on the lower-priced moto g85 5G, but offers significantly higher brightness with a 3,000 nits at peak and crispier resolution (1.5K vs. Full HD+).
The screen remains brilliantly visible under bright daylight due to its high brightness. The pOLED panel ensures vibrant colors, deep blacks, and an immersive viewing experience perfect for gaming, content creation, and media consumption. Additional features include multidimensional sound via crystal-clear stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res Audio support, an in-display fingerprint scanner, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Here’s what the edge 60 STYLUS brings: the name itself tells, there’s a built-in Stylus for note-taking, sketching, navigating, and creativity. For ports and button placement, the right side has a power button and volume controls, while the left side has a dual 5G SIM tray. The bottom side offers a USB Type-C port, stereo loudspeakers (one at the earpiece), a microphone, and a great stylus that pops out when pressed. The top side has a secondary microphone and another loudspeaker (stereo).
Software, User Interface, & Features
For its software, UI, and features, the motorola edge 60 STYLUS ensures a seamless software experience with Android 15 running out of the box and motorola’s My UX skin.

The interface is likely to be clean and free from bloatware aside from the Moto additions. What’s more interesting is the built-in Stylus that gives you more room for creativity on a smartphone.
The edge 60 STYLUS brings a unique touch to the smartphone world with its built-in stylus, making it the first device in this segment and also in the motorola edge series to offer such an addition. No wonder if you’re jotting down notes, sketching, or navigating, the stylus simply enhances productivity and creativity, giving you a range of practical and innovative tools. This level of integration brings an intuitive and seamless experience to creative tasks.
