Obviously, India will be getting it for less than $400, I bet

They're talking about the "feel" upon touching and not the actual quality of the material. Of course both are plastic

What a beautiful device!!
Motorola did an amazing thing partnering with Pantone, best and most vibrant phones on the market currently. I want it just by looking at the pictures. Might just order it right now with the excellent pre-order offer.

When hard plastic is used
"Feel cheap, doesn't feel premium"
When vegan leather is used AKA plastic.. (most of the time it is just plastic)
"Texture is lovely to touch"
Ahhh the sweet irony

Anonymous, 01 Sep 2024Too bad it does not have size and battery of edge 50. What's stopping you from just getting the Edge 50 instead?

Very close too 7 Gen 1 Accelerated Edition used on Edge 50 (599€ in my country when Neo costs 499€) and on Honor 90

https://benchmarks.ul.com/hardware/phone/Honor+90+review
Note : 3DMark rendering is offscreen, all devices uses the same pixelcount
With a far better efficiency.
Both with 5000mAh battery, CMF with 7300 provides nearly 60% better battery life than Honor 90 with 7 Gen 1 on gsmarena's battery test (16h13 vs 10h28)...of course powerconsumption isn't only linked to soc and battery

rizki1, 01 Sep 2024Good phone it has LTPO and 3x telephoto which it should hav... moreI think the trades are fair and the phone seems well balanced, maaaybe a bit pricier than expected, but it might drop after some months. Also, I doubt D7300 performs that bad. Most people bashing Mediatek are the usual just fanboys of Qualcomm, nothing new.

"But in person, it doesn't feel like a small phone"
Because it is not a small phone 😺 just slightly smaller in comparison to other phones

There's some good specs here like the telephoto and the LTPO. The price here is £400 so that puts it in competition with the Nothing 2a Plus.
I guess it all depends on what you want when buying a smartphone. I can rant on and be negative but I guess this is what the smartphone market has turned into.
However if you spend £100 more you can get a Oneplus 12r on Amazon right now and give it a couple of months the Oneplus 13 will launch and will reduce the price even further.
Is the 7300 really that much of a bad chip? Look forward to see the battery life once the review has been published.

The Motorola Edge 50 Neo looks promising! Loving the unique Pantone Poinciana color and the vegan leather back—it definitely stands out in the market full of glass-backed phones. Excited to see how it performs in the full review, especially considering the lightweight design and the 6.4-inch display. The inclusion of a matching case and a 68W charger in some markets is also a nice touch

Anonymous, 01 Sep 2024Too bad it does not have size and battery of edge 50. This. If it had a 5000mah battery it would be attractive. Makes no sense to be lower than last year's models even on the G lineup.

rizki1, 01 Sep 2024Good phone it has LTPO and 3x telephoto which it should hav... moreCamera quality was terrible on all samples in their preview (hands-on). Soft and blurry details, low-light was garbage. Chipset is weak for the price.
The screen should be great, 256GB base storage is great, IP rating is great.
Problem is It's still too expensive for what it is.

rizki1, 01 Sep 2024Good phone it has LTPO and 3x telephoto which it should hav... more7300 should be as good as the 7 Gen 1 on the more expensive edge 50.
Price is linked to :
- ltpo
- 1254x2760
- 3000 nits
- IP68
- 12 Go Ram
- 512Go Storage
- cameras setup close to the one on Galaxy S24
- wifi 6e antennas
- wireless charging.
I think it's a mistake to propose a 12/512Go at 499€ without offering a 8/256 at 399.
The big question is how the 12bits ISP on 7300 will manage cameras...compare to 18bits ISP on high-end devices.

With a 6 or 6.1" display this would have been a great compact smartphone and a worthy alternative to the Samsung S23 or ZenFone 10. Even the price point of 499€ would have been "reasonable" if the 50 Neo were a Compact phone. A missed opportunity for Motorola.
