Motorola Edge 30 Pro
Initially, the Motorola Edge 30 Pro was announced in China in late 2021 as the Motorola Edge X30. The spec sheet hasn’t really changed since then. Like the Oppo Find X5 Pro , it comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and also with a revised desktop mode (Wireless Ready For).
The Edge 20 Pro features a 68W charger, which Motorola claims gives you a half-charged battery in 15 minutes. It also has an in-display fingerprint reader and a 6.7-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with a refresh rate of 144 Hz.
Motorola has opted for a unique sensor combination for the camera module: the two main sensors offer 50 megapixels for wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle shots, while the latter is also suitable for macro shots. The third lens on the back houses a 2 MP depth sensor.
Motorola promises faster focusing thanks to 32 times more pixels, both in daylight and when shooting at night. Much like its competitors’ Android phones, the Moto Edge 30 Pro uses a Quad Pixel feature to combine the light information from four different pixels into one final pixel. The binning function applies to both the rear camera and the selfie shooter, which boasts an impressive 60 megapixel resolution.
