Editorial report

Motorola Edge 50 Neo 12 GB / 512 GB / Global technical sheet

The Motorola Edge 50 Neo suits buyers looking for a compact phone with a standout display and versatile cameras; its main trade-off is a smaller battery capacity than most phones of its time. The 6.4-inch pOLED display reaches 3000 nits and 460 ppi: its brightness is better than most, while its pixel density is among the best among phones launched around the same time. At 171 g, its weight is also among the lightest of its time. IP68 and MIL-STD-810H protection covers water and dust, as well as drops and shocks.

Its camera system is among the best of its time. The 50 MP camera has optical image stabilization, and the telephoto camera offers 3x optical zoom, a specification also among the best. Connectivity is among the best, with Wi-Fi 7, 5G, NFC and eSIM. Overall performance is typical of phones launched around the same time; the phone uses a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 with 8 GB of RAM. Its 256 GB storage cannot be expanded. The 4310 mAh battery is among the smallest of its time, while 68 W wired charging and 15 W wireless charging are better than most. It is sold in 8 GB / 256 GB and 12 GB / 512 GB configurations. With a NeoScore of 7.2, it is a strong fit for buyers who prioritize the display, cameras and connectivity and are comfortable with a smaller battery.
