Motorola’s latest Color-of-the-Year phone actually isn’t very colorful

[phillynews215]

TL;DR

• Motorola has announced its latest Pantone Color of the Year collaboration.
• The companies teamed up to make a special-edition Motorola Edge 70 in Cloud Dancer, a very light gray.
• Pricing and availability haven’t been announced.

For the past few years, Motorola’s been teaming up with Pantone, whose proprietary color matching system has become a widely used standard, to make an annual phone featuring the company’s Color of the Year. Moto announced the latest in that series today — and it’s surprisingly dull.

Pantone’s 2026 Color of the Year is called Cloud Dancer (number 11-4201 in Pantone’s system), a light gray. On its own, Cloud Dancer looks like plain white, but it does have some contrast against a true paper white. Moto’s made a special edition of its Edge 70 featuring a Cloud Dancer-colored finish and crystals from jewelry maker Swarovski.
