Motorola has finally shed light on the international launch of its next premium smartphone. To recap, the company announced the Signature 27 on September 22 after posting several teasers in the days prior.
While it revealed various hardware specifications at the time, it refrained from confirming when the device would be available. Instead, Motorola offered the following statement in its press release:
[The] motorola signature 27 is expected to come to markets worldwide in 2026...
Now, the company has been spotted narrowing the smartphone's release to a particular month. Specifically, its US website states that the Signature 27 is 'coming this November'. Currently, we can find the same reference on Motorola's Indian website too. As far as we can tell, these references were added in September, but were missed until now. However, Motorola's European websites do not reflect this statement yet.
Unfortunately, Motorola has not provided a specific release date for any market. In the meantime, the Signature 27 is rumoured to launch for around €1,595 (~$1,775) with 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. Additionally, the smartphone includes a Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chipset powered by a 7,000 mAh battery.
Moreover, the Signature 27 features a 165 Hz AMOLED display. On top of that, the device contains a 50 MP and 1/1.28-inch primary camera to surpass the Razr Ultra 2026 (curr. $1,499 on Amazon). Also, Motorola is said to have equipped the Signature 27 with a 50 MP and 1/2.76-inch ultra-wide-angle camera and a 200 MP periscope camera boasting a 5x optical zoom.
