AnthonyMooreDevices, 09 Dec 2024Yeh, the one I bought doesn't have eSIM but some varia... moreI'd like to retract a couple things from My earlier comment. Both GSMArena & Google lied to Me. This phone's chip is far less powerful than the SD888 & even though certain outlets are touting this phone as having eSIM, nobody has shown proof. I don't believe any of them actually do. I have one Factory Unlocked (XT2205-01, which is the same model number for the T-Mobile variant for some reason) and one for Verizon (XT2205-3) & neither have eSIM. I guess I should've known seeing how the Edge Plus 2022 doesn't have eSIM, so why would the non-plus 2022 have it? To make matters worse, I paid $180 for the Verizon variant, which was sold as "Open Box", but it's condition was not mint at all. So I definitely overpaid. I forget that some people don't know how to properly grade the condition of their items and I shouldn't buy anything if it has no actual pictures of the item. I did that with the 1st one and it was flawless so I tried My luck again, but no dice. I guess at least the Verizom variant is confirmed to have the mmWave antenna, has double the storage and came with a SIM tool, cable & Motorola charging brick. Everything else is the same. Somehow this phone can be OEM Unlocked even though it was made for Verizon, never seen that before. The Next Radio apk says it has FM Radio, the Bluetooth Codecs in the Developer Options lists AptX, AptX HD & AptX Adaptive & it has ReadyFor. It also has a little LED in the top left corner but it seems no app recognizes it, it would've been cool to use it as a Notification LED but it doesn't seem possible. The only screen protector that comes with "idiot proof" tools to install is the Zagg Glass Screen Protector. It's only one SP but you can find it for about $6 on eBay, it's hard to mess up installation & unlocking with My fingerprint still works just as fast as without it (once I re-registered them). All in all, it's a solid phone for the price if you can score an 8GB/256GB variant for no more than $160!

    Anonymous, 12 Nov 2024It doesn't have esim, even though it shows on the specs Yeh, the one I bought doesn't have eSIM but some variants do. I really wish I would've dug further to make sure. Good thing it's only a cheap in-between phone until the launch of the OnePlus 13. If there is no 1TB US/Global variants of the OP13, I'll just get an S24U. This phone is legit though, an absolute steal at the $80-160 you can find it for. It has ReadyFor and a bunch of Bluetooth codecs that are not listed. That's besides the 1080 144hz HDR OLED FLAT screen, water resistance, 5000mAh battery with wireless & reverse wireless charging, Android 14, a chip that has around SD7s Gen 2/888 performance, etc Solid phone that almost makes Me want to dive deeper into the Moto ecosystem.

                        Hey. So i bought one of these recently for approximately $122 (6/128). And I'm very impressed with this phone. Very satisfying phone. No real issues whatsoever. The display is amazing. It's smooth as butter & the colors are nicely saturated & vibrant. Stereo speakers are loud & clear. Main camera is pretty good. Phone performance is pretty fast & it doesn't overheat at all under normal operations (I don't play games on a phone). Battery life is good but not amazing. Fingerprint reader is super-fast. Design of the phone is pretty good, doesn't look cheap at all. But it's only available in Grey color... Overall a very good phone IMO. You can definitely still buy it in 2024 if you're short on budget & want a "budget flagship".

                          24Mobile, 29 Apr 2024When I use the phone it becomes very hot only at noon, even... moreTurn on developer mode and tweak the animation scale, limit the apps open to 4 it reduced the heating for me and once in a while charge all night. Then use as normal you should only charge like 2 times a day. 30% threshold is a good point of reference.

                            I bought the Motorola Edge 2022 from a phone dealer. I traded an Apple iPhone 11 for it and was quite impressed with how far Android had come in comparison to the Apple ecosystem. I didn't feel like I needed to catch up with things and it took less than 48 hours to learn how to operate the phone. The brightness out and about can be better for those who spend most of their time in broad daylight. Monochromatic scaling helps deal with it but its something to consider and it wont be a problem if your underground where theres low light. The biggest issue I had with the phone was Android not being an all ensuite OS where everything is where you need it like the apps, back up and upgrades. I felt spoiled by Apple to the point where sometimes I didn't even want to update because the description didn't match or didn't appear as professional as Apple is known to be but on Android it was like they pushed one update that felt like I went two steps back because all the fancy features disappeared. For the first time I missed the Apple ecosystem so much that it made me buy an iMac instead. Great battery life, no headaches with tweaking of the colors and a wonderful camera make this phone a social managers dream because its such a hidden gem. Join the message board if you have any issues.

                              Anyone know if there's more than one versions of the Edge 2022? I need N77 or N78 5G support and if I look on the official Moto page, it says it has them, but this one doesn't. Also, in the AT&T website, it says it has it. The 2021 version that appears here in gsmarena says it supports those bands.
