Thanks to Motorola we were able to attend the presentation event of the Motorola Edge 30 Pro, the brand’s top-of-the-range phone that lands in the country at a very competitive price, standing out in power and solving almost all the shortcomings of the previous version, although with a but Let’s see it below.

As we said, by attending the presentation event we were able to have a first contact with the team. In hand it feels very premium and comfortable due to its rounded edges, with a contained weight of 196 grams. In addition, we have loved the colors, both the Cosmos Blue that has some touches of green depending on how the light hits it, and the Stardust White that is similar to a pearly atom with pink touches also depending on how the light hits it. With regard to resistance, it has IP52, only for splashes. Motorola is still in debt in this section, where we could already ask for an IP57 at least.
The first thing we could notice when using it for a few minutes is the extreme fluidity it handles, but that does not really surprise us since this is something that we have been highlighting in the latest high-end equipment of the brand. On the other hand, highlight the facelift that they have given to the Android interface, which in this case is Android 12, and it is an almost stock version, very similar to the one seen on any Google Pixel today. .
The team stands out in power by having the latest Chipset from the Qualcomm firm, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. It comes in the version with 256 GB of internal storage + 12 GB of RAM.
It also has a 6.7″ screen with pOLED technology, 144hz refresh rate, compatible with HDR10+ and representation of the DCI-P3 color space with more than 25% compared to the previous generation. The multimedia experience is completed with the inclusion of a double stereo speaker with Dolby Atmos and Snapdragon Sound technologies.
In addition, it has a 4800 mAh battery, wireless charging and 68w fast charging with the included charger!, which allows you to charge 50% in 15 minutes. This team is also betting heavily on photography with a 50 MP f/1.9 main camera with ultra pixel technology and optical image stabilization, and the same 50 MP resolution for the 114˚ ultra wide-angle camera that can also be used as a function macro for close-range shots. For its part, the selfie is 60 MP with opening f / 2.2. Unfortunately we lose the telephoto sensor, which is what we liked so much in the edge 20 pro, and in exchange we are left with only a 2 MP depth sensor as the third lens. This is the great “but” of this team that is very complete and balanced but with a great lack like this one.
Finally, comment that it is still compatible with the Ready For platform, which allows us to turn our Smartphone into a PC or view the content on a larger screen and it works better and better.
You can get it today at a price of $149,999. It comes in two packages, one with a Stylus that can be used, in addition to making notes, as a pointer control for Ready For and taking selfies, while it can also be obtained in another package that includes a remote control to control the Ready For.
