yes I know 5 big updates sound nice... but if they deploy them half a year after release... it doesn't improve their reputation much anyway

      isn't it still wild that their more expensive options including regular Edge 50 promise less full Android upgrades in comparison with more budget orientated Edge 50 Neo? What is Motorola strategy here? Incredibly confusing approach...

            And yes I know their site says 5 OS updates but marketers could spin security updates as OS updates so I don't completely trust it.

                Anonymous, 30 Aug 20246.3 inches is still a big size. Has to be 5.5 inches5.5" with a 20:9 aspect ratio? The screen would be too narrow. It would kinda look like the LG BL40 New Chocolate (2009).
                Such smartphone would not ideal for today's tasks (messaging, media consumption, browsing, GPS navigation...).
                5.5" with 16:9 or 18:9 would work.

                I still don't know why people like 20:9 displays? What's the use of that extra height? Maybe beneficial for multitasking, but how many people use multitasking (2 apps on the screen) on a daily basis on a smartphone?

                  For PWM sensitive ppl I have bad news. It exactly gives me the strange eye fatigue after 2mins as the iPhone 14 pro.

The edge series 2024 ha... moreGoogle Search (also known simply as Google or Google.com) is a search engine operated by Google. It allows users to search for information on the Internet by entering keywords or phrases. Google Search uses algorithms to analyze and rank websites based on their relevance to the search query. It is the most popular search engine worldwide.

                    As of 2020, Google Search has a 92% share of the global search engine market. By 2012, it handled more than 3.5 billion searches per day.

                    Google Search is the most-visited website in the world. Approximately 26.75% of Google's monthly global traffic comes from the United States, 4.44% from India, 4.4% from Brazil, 3.92% from the United Kingdom and 3.84% from Japan according to data provided by Similarweb.

                    The order of search results returned by Google is based, in part, on a priority rank system called "PageRank". Google Search also provides many different options for customized searches, using symbols to include, exclude, specify or require certain search behavior, and offers specialized interactive experiences, such as flight status and package tracking, weather forecasts, currency, unit, and time conversions, word definitions, and more.

                    The main purpose of Google Search is to search for text in publicly accessible documents offered by web servers, as opposed to other data, such as images or data contained in databases. It was originally developed in 1996 by Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Scott Hassan. The search engine would also be set up in the garage of Susan Wojcicki's Menlo Park home. In 2011, Google introduced "Google Voice Search" to search for spoken, rather than typed, words. In 2012, Google introduced a semantic search feature named Knowledge Graph.

                    Analysis of the frequency of search terms may indicate economic, social and health trends. Data about the frequency of use of search terms on Google can be openly inquired via Google Trends and have been shown to correlate with flu outbreaks and unemployment levels, and provide the information faster than traditional reporting methods and surveys. As of mid-2016, Google's search engine has begun to rely on deep neural networks. In August 2024, it was ruled that Google's search engine held an illegal monopoly over Internet search.

                                  154.1 x 71.2 x 8.1 mm (6.07 x 2.80 x 0.32 moto vs 158.9 x 73.6 x 8.7 mm (6.26 x 2.90 x 0.34 in)
                                  4mm difference of length. 4mm: The length of a grain of rice.
                                  2mm the width: half a grain of rice. lol. or, the diameter of a poppy seed.
                                  -
                                  You're correct, this is not a hard concept to understand: The size difference is miniscule and neither is a compact phone.
