I was seriously considering buying this phone (it was in my shopping cart), but unfortunately I have dropped my plan for the following reasons -
1. Motorola seems to be delaying with the software updates for its previous generation Edge phones and Razr phones. Also there are reports of multiple software bugs on every major OS update. This seems disheartening when they are charging a premium price.
2. Several users are complaining about camera lag and also heating while performing simple daily tasks. They experience that the thermal throttling seems aggressive which causes lags and stutters.
3. Handling this phone with the curved screen edges can cause miss-touches and seems unintuitive for anyone who is used to flat screens.
Now, I'm thinking about going for either the Samsung Galaxy A55 or maybe next year's A56. Can you suggest some other alternatives please?

I'll be most interested to see what improvements they've made with the camera.
I have a 2022 plus, it's a powerful phone, but the camera isn't on the same tier as the Samsung's flagship.

Push, 25 Jun 2024Even I am using the Edge 30 ultra but just for minor specs ... moreWhat matters in a camera is mostly the sensor size, not the resolution.
For our Edge 30U, the 1/1.22 Sensor size is carrying it, not the 200MP resolution.
But if we vrop to 3Times. We have 22.2MP on am 1/3.66 Sensor.
Which is almost 4 Times smaller than the 1/2
64MP periscope at 3 Times. (And almost exactly 3 times the resolution).
It obviously results in 3-4 times in detail as well.
As just the main sensor, is about equal.
The Edge 50U having F/1.6 so it is slightly better at low light with an marginally smaller sensor.
And when zooming, it can do 2 Times with the main cam anyway, with better results at night.
(Also the edge 30U uses its 200MP camera as an 12.5MP one except you go in 200MP mode 50MP mode, or specifically record in 8K then it also 50MP.
Video recording in 4K60 will result in just cropping into an 12.5 MP sensor.
It's still a good camera but what the edge 50U does is just way better.

Fa14bi, 20 Jun 2024I have the edge 30Ultra and what are you talking about. ... moreEven I am using the Edge 30 ultra but just for minor specs tweek I don't think it's worth upgrade. Camera upgrade and IP 68 rating that's the only plus point I think Edge 50 ultra has. 64 mp periscope is equivalent to Edge 30 ultra main 200 mp sensor. SD 8S Gen 3 at price point of 60k INR?? Even IQOO 12 with less price and better hardware and specs is giving SD 8Gen 3. Motorola needs to step up their game by actually giving Flagship chipset and Higher camera resolution. They have improved alot in past 2 yrs but their software update policy still falls behind many other brands.

The camera setup looks like Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra but without a tiny screen

Darth Caesium, 22 Jun 2024It's literally a 6.7" screen with a tiny width. Y... moreIt is a curved screen. Of course there will be plenty of handling issues like extra touches, non-responsive multi-touches, lack of grip while clicking photos and many more such things. Another issue is privacy in public spaces since people can easily see the content on the edges of the display. If the Edge series had flat screens I would buy either the 50 Pro or Ultra in a heartbeat (but I understand that Edge means the USP is the curved display)...

Very very pathetic.
72 MM width is not acceptable. It should have not been less than 76 MM.

Dufrayne, 29 May 2024There was a bigger camera spec on the edge 30 ultra. I have the edge 30Ultra and what are you talking about.
Same ultrawide
Selfie but with AF
About the Same main ( marginal smaller sensor that captures more light because 1.6)
And it has a periscope.
The edge 30U doesn't even have a telephoto at all (it has one that gives less Detail in the Tele than what a main cam crop gives, and the tele it has doesn't even have OIS).
Huge advantage in camera setup for the edge 50U.

Launched in India for Rs. 54,999 (approx. US$659). For the features that it brings as well as its competition, I think they've priced it a smidge too high. I was ready to buy this if it was about Rs. 45,000. But I'll keep looking!
