The only reason I would go for A55 is for its flat screen.

I don't understand what Motorola is thinking with the Edge 50 Pro and 50 Fusion. Both of these sell here in S/SE Asia for much cheaper. The 50 Pro is roughly the same price as the A35 and is a much better device overall (only missing a memory card slot). The 50 Fusion is also a great device for the price and is going for 75% the price of the A35 (and about 60% the price of the A55). That is a fantastic deal for what you're getting with these devices.
But in the EU, North America, and Australia the 50 Pro and Fusion are twice as expensive as Asia. The Pro is more expensive than the A55 and the Fusion is almost comparable. It makes no sense.

It doesn't run too hot thanks to the 1080p resolution ... if it was bigger like the trend nowadays : surely it will run hot as other devices with the same SoC (RN 13 Pro) !

However it has an SD slot and therefore it's with the software updates as well just more worth the price.

They just don't know their own naming scheme at this point and forgot what neo and fusion stood for and mix it up sometimes.

Anyway, €350 is €50 cheaper than the Redmi note 13pro 5g (launched at €400) for the same 8gb 256gb base models. In fact it is the same as the 4g version of the Redmi note 13 pro with the helio g99 ultra (launched at €350). Definitely competetive

Putting 68W charging as a con is honestly crazy. Pixels and Samsungs still charge at 25W. 68W is plenty fast enough for the average consumer. 60% in 30 minutes is very good

40 Neo followed up Edge 40, 40 Ne... moreJust because the Edge 40 Neo came out after the Edge 40 doesn't mean that it was intended to replace it.
The Edge 40 Neo was lower ranged and cheaper than the Edge 40.
Comparing models this year to last year's:
Edge 40 has been replaced by Edge 50 Pro
Edge 40 Pro has been replaced by Edge 50 Ultra
Edge 40 Neo has been replaced by Edge 50 Fusion

Quite nice, but not a real match for the Edge 40 from last year, which is faster (higher test values, and to charge; also has wireless charging) and cheaper - 8/256 for ~€300 at black Friday last year. Although the 50 Fusion has a bigger battery/better battery life, and probably longer SW updates, it won't make me change.

Midrange without SD card and audio jack, it's DOA

This is more like an Edge Neo phone specswise and less like an Edge Fusion phone. Remember, the Edge 30 Fusion came with a SD888+ (flagship), the Edge 40 Neo came with a D7030 (midrange), and now the Edge 50 Fusion has a SD7sG2 (midrange).

The main camera has improved a lot especially in low light and chromatic aberration. Other than that, it looks like a huge downgrade from the edge 30 fusion.

Good deal in India but essentially dead on arrival in the US and Europe because of one brand, Nothing. The Nothing Phone 2a. It's faster, lasts longer and has a better UW cam. Motorola went nuts with the processing here, too much sharpness and everything else. They had the perfect balance with the 50 Ultra, maybe it's the ISP?

Three things:
1) Amazed at the battery life of the Nothing phone 2a compared with the Edge 50 Fusion. Similar battery capacity and it's way better. Maybe because the Dimensity is TSMC and the 7s Gen 2 is Samsung fabricated? Even the A55 is better than the Snapdragon in the Edge 50 Fusion.
2) Both the A55 and Nothing phone 2a look like better prospects and are near in price.
3) If Nothing phone 2a had a Sony camera sensor like the Edge 50 Fusion I think it's a no contest. I think even the A55 uses a Sony sensor rather than a Samsung sensor. That's where they need to improve for the 3a.

The photos seem pretty good. The colours look more natural than other Moto models. Perhaps Motorola should stick to Sony sensors and ditch Omnivision.
