For those tired of the same old iPhone-like handset, Motorola’s next Signature 27 phone is one of the most entertaining slab smartphone designs we’ve seen in a long time. Now we know it has the specs and price point to match its chair-like design. Just know that to claim what may be one of the most feature-packed smartphones to date, you’ll need to spend even more than the already ludicrously expensive iPhone 18 Pro Max.
While we already knew this phone was large and carried Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chip, we didn’t have an idea of what else was in store. For one, this sucker is bright. Moto claims the large 6.78-inch “Extreme AMOLED Duo” display promises to hit a peak 12,000 nits of brightness in HDR content. What you need to remember is those kinds of brightness claims usually come with a caveat that it’s only happening at the 1% pixel level, so your typical brightness is going to be far lower than that.
What’s likely more significant is how the phone plans to pack a massive 7,000mAh battery complete with promised support for 90W fast charging and up to 50W wireless charging. In addition, the phone supports 5W reverse wireless and 4.5W reverse wired charging. For comparison, the similarly-sized Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra came with a 5,000mAh battery. Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro Max peaks at a 5,567mAh battery.
Those specs are belying what’s going to be a cringeworthy price. The Signature 27 starts at $1,600.
