[ad_1]

Motorola just unveiled the Motorola Edge Plus today, February 24, 2022. The new flagship is a beast since the specs are really competitive, as well as the price. From Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 platform to the 68W fast charging feature, here is everything you about the device.


TL;DR

  • The new Edge Plus will be available in the US from $999 at launch.
  • The highlight is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.

Motorola Edge Plus

First, the Motorola Edge Plus was announced in China at the end of 2021 as Motorola Edge X30. So we don’t really see a difference between the specs sheet. On paper, it bears a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 platform and a revamped desktop mode (wireless Ready For).

The Edge 20 Pro will see a 68W charger included in the box, that according to Motorola can reach 50% in 15 minutes, an integrated under-screen fingerprint reader, a 6.7-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with a 144 Hz refresh rate.

For the camera module, Motorola opted for a unique combination of sensors, using a triple-camera setup, the two main sensors offer 50 megapixels for wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle shots, while the latter also works for macro shots. The third lens in the back houses a 2MP depth sensor. In the front, selfies are handled by a high-resolution 60 MP camera.

Motorola promises faster, “instant”, focus, with 32x more focal points, both in daylight and night scenes. Similar to rival Android phones, the Moto Edge Plus uses a quad-pixel feature to combine the light information from 4 points into a final pixel. The binning feature works for both the back camera, as well as the selfie shooter, which sports an impressive 60 megapixels resolution.
