Well, my comment was, and I will keep on insisting it is a good chipset, especially on cheap refurbished flagships from 2021. Like I said, custom ROMs are the solution to extended support for higher Android versions, and Motorola is one of the last few brands that allow their bootloader to be unlocked. But clearly this does not apply to you; I am only speaking from someone who mods and tinkers with their phones.
I understand you are persistently trying to make the point that the Edge 50 Fusion is a good phone, and I won't deny this. Motorola is a good brand anyways. It really just depends on what you value in a phone. For example, having a 1.5K+ display resolution is something I greatly value, but this may not be true to you. Having a powerful chipset is also more important to me than software updates, but again, this may not be true to you.
So I am in no position to tell anyone which phone is better, because everyone has different values. All I am saying is the SD888 still packs a punch in 2024. I did not wish to imply anything more than that.

I cant really think of any other SD 888 phone model that is supposed to get the A15 update. Anyways, I understand better overall package as a combination of more modern HW, certain premium features like IP68, 144Hz screen + longer SW support. My comment was not about whether SD 888 is a good chipset but rather that it will become obsolete in a short while without software support. In fact it has become obsolete as no SD 888 model offers any SW upgrades and the chipset is not being manufactured any longer.

I see no direct correlation between chipset and number of Android updates. That's entirely up to the company's decision with regards to the length of updates. One company could support for 5 years while the other 2 years.
And besides, in my case with the Mi 11, I have the option to use custom ROMs. But I'd assume that is not your case. So obviously we are coming from two different sides here.
My comment really wasn't to argue whether 50 Fusion is better or worse for the price, but rather to express this idea that, every few years, there is one flagship chipset which represents the minumum standard of good performance; one generation behind and it just ever-so-slightly struggles with today's demands, or should I say today's standards.

NeonHD, 24 Nov 2024It's not past its glory yet.
I remember back then,... moreYour daily driver might not be the right choice for me and vice versa. SD 888 could be a daily driver for someone who doesn't mind being stcuk on A14 forever.
I use the phone for work and I need to always have an updated OS and security patches.
Plus, I can compare the 50 Fusoin to the Nord 3 which I had for 2 weeks before i returned it. Even with a Dimensity 9000 chipset ( superior to SD 888) the Nord 3 didnt feel that much faster, if at all, compared to the 7s gen2. The overall experience was similar. And honestly I think the screen of the 50 Fusion is better than the Nord 3, despite having a lower resolution. So when you look at the overall value and functionality of the 50 Fusion I really think it offers one of the best packages in this price range and even more.

I remember back then, there were flaship chips that are considered old, yet still gives great performance of its time.
From 2019-2021, it was the SD835 that I considered to be "old but gold".
And from 2021-2023, it was passed to the SD855.
Now, in 2024, that "old but gold" chip goes to the SD888.
My idea is that these old but gold chips represent a "bare minumum" to be considered worthy for daily driver use.

This makes it a bad investment even for the near future. It probably only makes sense to buy the 30 Fusion if you dont really care about system opitimizations and new Android features or in case you need the ample power of the chipset for gaming or other GPU/CPU intensive tasks.
For a daily driver, the 50 Fusion offers a better overall package. These are the hard facts.

In the future thry will say human eye can't see above 180hz, 240hz, etc. Obviously we notice the difference otherwise they won't increase their statement everytime.

I have just bought this phone 2 weeks ago and I must say that it does all I need with ease.
Pros: It is quite cheap and surprisingly fast compare to other older processors. It won't heat up that much even in a hot day when you use many active apps etc. The loudspeaker is very loud too (.. but see cons..). Quality wise is also good despite the plastic back. It also comes with eSIM and IP68 standard water resistant.
Cons: Screen is bright and clear but would need a bit of extra brightness on a bright and sunny day. Loudspeaker can sound a bit noisy when you put the sound level at its highest peak.
I have paid only US$295 for it so it feels like a good bargain for what you pay.

The snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset inside Edge 50 Fusion can be comparable and fits with snapdragon 855 in CPU and GPU performance and The snapdragon 7 Gen 3 in Edge 50 pro can be comparable and exactly fits with snapdragon 870 in CPU and GPU performance.
Both of them are outdated in performance while Edge 50 fusion is very outdated. It will LAG a lot as time moves on.
Go for Edge 30 fusion with Snapdragon 888 plus which is way ahead in every specs.

In gaming and scrolling through the web perception and feel are night and day difference. Now even my 120hz phone screen looks laggy when I pick it up after using a PC. Let alone 60hz... I'm at point where I can't stand 60hz anywhere anymore... That ignorant statement that we can't perceive more than 60hz is nothing short of hilarious and false.
