The meaning behind Viva Magenta

The Pantone Color of the Year 2023, Viva Magenta, conveys what it means to blend the virtual and the physical with enthusiasm. Rooted in red with cool blue undertones, this powerful hue is inspired by nature and explored through technology, revealing multiple dimensions and a new way of creating. As we engage in multiple spaces and places simultaneously, we blur the lines of what is tangible and digital and form our own hybrid identity. Viva Magenta symbolises this relationship, highlighting how consumers use electronics to enhance their various personas and develop their own multifaceted self-expression – a sentiment that is perfectly aligned with Motorola’s brand ethos of empowerment.

“It’s been a privilege to explore the ‘Magentaverse’ alongside Motorola and the motorola edge 30 fusion,” said Elley Cheng, Pantone Vice President and General Manager. “We are all united in the belief that design, innovation and personal expression can generate more creative solutions and cultivate a future that promotes joyousness and optimism.

In addition to the amazing 50MP high-resolution main camera sensor with OIS, the motorola edge 30 fusion houses a 13MP ultrawide camera lens with a built-in macro vision camera on the back, and a 32MP front camera on the front. And with Quad Pixel technology, the results are sharper and more vibrant photos with 4x better low light sensitivity.

The motorola edge 30 fusion features TurboPower™ 68W charging, giving you power for the day in just 10 minutes of charging2. The motorola edge 30 fusion also comes with two large stereo speakers enabled with Dolby Atmos.
