Estimated Product Carbon Footprint
Motorola edge 60 pro
Model Series: XT2507 Series
Device Type: Mobile Smartphone
Report Issue Date: July 17, 2025
Motorola values its commitment to the environment. As part of that commitment, Motorola performs product lifecycle analysis in accordance with the ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 standards. This analysis allows the customer to estimate the carbon footprint of their product.
The estimated carbon footprint is an approximate measure of the greenhouse gas emissions produced over the lifecycle of the product and is reported as the global warming potential for 100-year time horizon (GWP-100) in units of CO2 equivalents (CO2e).
Estimated carbon footprint of the Motorola edge 60 pro
49.57 Kg CO2e

Lifecycle Contribution to Carbon Footprint
The estimated carbon footprint is broken down by lifecycle stage, with the following percentage contributions:
- Manufacturing: 94.1%
- Transport: 3.7%
- Use Phase: 2.9%
- End-of-life (EoL): 0.6%
Within the Manufacturing stage, the breakdown is:
- PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly): 89.9% of manufacturing footprint
- Other Parts: 3.8% of manufacturing footprint
- Housing Parts: 0.4% of manufacturing footprint
Calculation Methodology
The product carbon footprint (PCF) is calculated using GaBi Software version 10, including the most current 2022 updates for modelling each of the product type lifecycle steps. GaBi data is compliant to ISO 14040/14044 standards.
The calculation produces an estimate of the greenhouse gases resulting from the product's lifecycle, covering:
- Manufacturing: from raw material extraction to production
- Transport: including upstream and downstream activities
- Use Phase: typical energy use over the life of the product
- End of life: recycling and precious metal recovery
Measurement Uncertainty
Communicating these GHG levels through quantitative estimates may result in a level of measurement uncertainty. This uncertainty is largely due to data sourcing, modelling assumptions, and the different characterization factors used to translate environmental emissions into environmental impacts. Due to this uncertainty, it is not useful to compare the PCF result between products or across different manufacturers.
LCA Study and Manufacturer Information
The LCA study was conducted by the VDE Testing and Certification Institute, Offenbach, Germany, using GaBi Software.
