I don't understand how people can spend so much on a phone like it's normal. I got the g power this year for 40 bucks and it's way better than any phone I've had while being cheap it's more than enough for what you need

I still use the Motorola Edge 40 Pro (aka Moto x40 with global ROM) and I'm really happy with this Phone. The Edge 50 Pro is a Downgrade. Maybe 2025 I'll buy the next Version, if the specs are good enough.

I guess only new phone with sd695 for that price.

SuperSpruce, 30 Dec 2024One member of the G series isn't a flop: The G Stylus ... moreOLED will never be better than IPS LCD.
That's a simple FACT.
In a direct OLED vs IPS LCD comparison, IPS LCD will always win hands down by a huge margin.
OLED can never reach the whopping 180° viewing angle that the IPS LCD has.
Mark these words.

I was actually EXCITED about the G35, because I wanted an inexpensive phone with an eSIM. Multiple blogs said this phone has an eSIM. But Motorola India informed me that wasn't true.

One member of the G series isn't a flop: The G Stylus 5G 2024. Same retail price as my current G Stylus 5G 2022, but now with a better SoC, faster charging, and a bright OLED as opposed to my current dim LCD, all while keeping the headphone jack and MicroSD slot.

The Edge 50 Ultra gets 1.5 million as well, just look at the gsmarena test, but I just tested it myself right now: https://i.ibb.co/xfKQQKQ/Screenshot-20241230-194554-An-Tu-Tu-Benchmark.png

Motorola deserve credit for their eye friendly screens, better than most. I also think the edge 50 pro and ultra are very good phones for the right price, if you can get the ultra for under £500 it's got a lot to love and try edge 50 pro is great for under £350

I don't think the entire G series was a loser. At $250USD, I would call the G Stylus 5G 2024 a winner. If it got the SD6g3 or SD7sg2 at the same price it would have been a definite winner

Your not wrong but he is right.
Motorola could had designed it to fit a bigger battery, they choose not.
We know for a fact that it's possible to fit bigger batteries on that body size, but I also understand that it's more expensive to do so.

Well i also dont get the beating with lower score higher score phones. In what they beat ? I would imagine that some heavy game you have less fps cause of the lower score and the fps will drop in a year or 2 more then the higher score phone

The edge 50 ultra is another disappointment too offering only 3 OS updates and hardly an upgrade over the 50 pro
The G75 is a nice device and could be a real winner on the G series

LoneOwl, 30 Dec 2024Thats not how things work. Its just bad choice by Motorola.... moreThat's absolutely how things work mate. You can only fit so much in a certain space, as I said. Hence why a 950ml drink bottle is bigger than a 600ml drink bottle. Fascinating stuff.
There is that, however they also added a telephoto, and the extra drop protection, both of which take up space. Plus, the difference in battery capacity makes no difference when you look at the real endurance. The 50 Neo outlasts the 40 Neo, and by quite some margin.
Apart from height, the Edge 50 Neo is very comparable to the S24, or the AIfon 16.
Yes ofc the Ximi has a larger battery, it's using Si-C? Si-C's main purpose is increasing battery density. The only company I would expect to use that at this price is Honor, as they're bigggg on it. Otherwise I would imagine the price would be too high for it to make sense.
The fact that you're oblivious to the Edge 50 Neo not using UFS at all says a lot. It uses uMCP, which is *equivalent* to UFS 2.2. Both the chipset and the storage seem perfectly fine in real world usage. Even CoD Warzone Mobile runs well if memory serves.

Thats why Edge 50 pro, their big 6.7'' phone has only 4500mah.
Besides the screen only downgraded from 6.55'' on 40 Neo to 6.4 on Edge 50 Neo.
The difference isnt that big, nor is Edge 50 Neo a very compact device like for example base S24/Iphones.
Also tell this to Xiaomi, that managed to fit a 5400mah battery on their latest 6.36'' Xiaomi 15.
As for the other features, yes they are very nice for this price range, but they are also the reason they cut costs choosing this mediatek. And dont forget that Edge 50 Neo used the old UFS 2.0 .
