The new Motorola Signature 27 flagship smartphone features a 200-megapixel telephoto camera, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 processor and a 7,000mAh battery. The device also brings advanced AI capabilities, a brighter display and planned support for the privacy-focused GrapheneOS operating system.
The Signature 27 features a 50MP Sony LYTIA L910 main camera, a 200MP periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom and up to 100x AI-assisted zoom, and a dedicated Event Vision Sensor designed to improve photos of fast-moving subjects. The camera system has received DXOMARK’s Gold Label recognition for image quality.
The smartphone also features a 6.8-inch Extreme AMOLED Duo display using tandem OLED technology, with a claimed peak brightness of 12,000 nits under specific testing conditions. Motorola says the panel delivers up to 34% greater energy efficiency than traditional AMOLED displays.
Powered by Qualcomm’s latest flagship chipset, the Signature 27 supports Wi-Fi 8 and incorporates Motorola’s ArcticMesh cooling system. It also integrates Google Gemini and Motorola Qira, with additional AI capabilities planned for automating tasks across applications, creating personalized widgets and translating American Sign Language into text. Feature availability will vary by region and language.
GrapheneOS Support Expands Security Options
Motorola has also partnered with the GrapheneOS Foundation to bring GrapheneOS, an open-source Android-based operating system focused on privacy and security, to the Signature 27. The device will be Motorola’s first smartphone to support the operating system.
The device incorporates Arm Memory Tagging Extension technology to help protect against memory-related vulnerabilities. Motorola has not confirmed when GrapheneOS support will become available, with further details expected in the coming months.
The Signature 27 will also receive seven operating system upgrades and up to seven years of security updates, subject to regional and carrier variations.
Other features include 90W wired charging, 50W wireless charging, Bang & Olufsen-tuned audio and IP68/IP69 ratings for protection against dust, water immersion and high-pressure water jets.
The Signature 27 is expected to launch worldwide over the coming months, with a starting price of $1,599 in select regions.
