      It says on the Motorola website that the phone will be receiving 5 Android OS updates. Could you please clarify on the same as you mentioned 2 year upgrades?

          SD Cardigan, 29 Aug 2024Rather poor that one of the most 'compact' modern... more.... I mean, it's the same diagonally, but other dimensions are shrunk considerably that make this phone ACTUALLY compact.
          It's not a really hard concept to understand.

              Anonymous, 29 Aug 2024If edge 50 neo has midrange camera setup then what is non u... moreWhen I saw these cameras on the other earlier 50 variants, I immediately thought of the non-Ultra S cameras which have been the same for the last 3 generations. Yeah, these are midrange now and Samsung should really be ashamed.

                Probably a mistake from Motorola.
                The edge series 2024 has 5 devices and 50 Neo is 4th tier.
                No way it has LTPO when even 50 Ultra does not.
                Phone that costs 2x more.

                  Motorola Edge 50 and Motorola Edge 50 Neo is here!

                    Anonymous, 29 Aug 2024But S23 has that ugly wide 19.5:9 aspect ratio. The 50 Neo ... moreno, wider aspect is good. all video on YouTube and mostly all TV is 16:9 so 19.5:9 is perfect. also wide enough to get larger text than a 20:9 or 21:9 phone. go check any screen comparison between Xperia phones and iPhone or other 19.5:9. the wider the better.

                        What I dislike :
                        - modem sucks, the phone gets hot when browsing the web on 5g. Antenas are weak, it gets even worse with low signal.
                        - thus battery life kinda sucks. On WiFi it's ok but outside roaming from antena to antena it's crap.
                        - I wish I could charge it quicker, 25w is not premium charging speed.
                        - cameras are so-so, I'm not always happy with image finesse and rendering lacks some punch.

                        I wish I could get my hands on a snapdragon version instead but warranty is not working in Europe so as a couple of Samsung's services.

                          Edge 50 neo start from 399€ in Serbia

                            Damn all these Edge 50s look wonderful, just that one little thing called UFS 2.2. is making my heart bleed.

                              50 Neo compact, stylish, great camera. What's not to love about this device (I can already see the oldies coming at me yelling "nO hEaDpHoNe jAcK" 🤣)

                                My S24+ has been a pretty nice device, had it since January and I've enjoyed using it overall.

                                  Wow the neo is looking super good with it's dinky size!

                                  Also that camera bump way nicer than the Pixel 9 log.

One thing is certain, Moto phones are on sale with large discounts within a few months. It's price is high now to make it looks a better deal when it has 100 euro or £100 discount in the coming weeks.

                                        They needed larger gap to insert Neo and 50 between both.
