Today's market is saturated with a plethora of budget Android smartphones that offer a compelling hardware and software combination at a competitive price range. Motorola has long ruled the roost at this cheaper price range, but in recent years it's begun offering premium options like the Edge (2023) and Edge+ (2023) too, and is ready to continue that with a 2024 line of Edge handsets.

Budget Android smartphones can be a compelling option if you're looking for a handset that offers a pretty good experience but doesn't cost a lot of money. With that said, if you've been looking to buy an Android phone on the cheap, your search may have come to a close thanks to this fantastic deal on the 2022 iteration of the Motorola Edge.

Despite similar starting prices, the OnePlus 11 and 2023’s Motorola Edge couldn’t be much more different. And, while the Edge does hold a couple of advantages, the OnePlus 11 bests it in a few key categories.

Motorola has been busy lately. The brand’s Edge phones have consistently been solid performers, and the 2023 iteration of the Edge appears to be positioned specifically to take on the Pixel 8. The Edge is a $600 smartphone that introduces a number of excellent features, specs, and performance standards.

Moto Edge (2023) review: It's complicated

The Moto Edge would be a great choice if so many other options weren't available

If I were in a Facebook relationship with the latest Motorola Edge, I already know which status I would choose — It’s complicated. The Edge has a vibrant display, sleek design, and even a decent camera. Still, it’s too easy to talk myself into another situationship with a different phone around its price range. Whether it’s the Google Pixel 7a, the Nothing Phone 2, or even Motorola’s own ThinkPhone on a decent sale, the competition between mid-range phones is fiercer than ever. Despite how good it is, it’s tough to settle on the Motorola Edge.

Motorola has several loyal fans, and its Android phones are still well-received, featuring an eclectic blend of features, performance, and affordability. Hot on the heels of an underwhelming Pixel 8 launch, Motorola has swooped in to bring you back up with the Moto Edge 2023. The device is poised to become one of our favorite budget Android phones, but before that, there's a $100 launch discount on its $600 price as a part of Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days, which you should not miss.

While a flagship smartphone has to hit all the notes to justify a sky high price tag, mid-range devices have a little more flexibility. The more affordable a product is, the more you'll need to compromise on what you want out of your phone. On paper, the latest Moto Edge is a solid compromise — a big, fast display; a thin and light chassis, and a massive battery. But with so much competition in the budget smartphone space, nailing the right mix between affordable and impressive can, as this phone reveals, really be a challenge.

Motorola has a penchant for making great budget Android phones and upper-midrange devices, but they seldom captivate public attention. The Motorola Moto X40 was one such phone that flew under the radar when it made its China debut in December. The phone’s launch is imminent in the international market, and a few leaked renders are now shaping our expectations.

The new motorola edge - 2022 is a show-stopper. With its crystal clear 6.6” OLED display and consistently great performance — powered by MediaTek’s new Dimensity 1050 SoC — it’ll be the best phone upgrade you’ve made in years. And with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage out of the box, this is a phone you’ll want to hold onto for many years.

Buying a new smartphone can be a daunting task. These days, walk into any carrier store and you’ll be bombarded with gimmicky features, extravagant promises, and rising prices. You don’t need to spend an arm and a leg to get an incredible experience. The new motorola edge is designed to give you a flagship-like experience without breaking the bank, and right now, you can grab one at a special limited-time launch price.

It's probably hackneyed to joke about how many phones Motorola releases in any given year. At this point, the company's strategy is clearly working, as it's overtaken LG to become the third-largest smartphone brand in the US. On the heels of a brand-new foldable and a phone adorned with a first-ever 200MP camera, Motorola is announcing something a little less exciting: a new Edge device. The Motorola Edge (2022) might look as boring as its name on paper, but if you're shopping for a new phone under $500, it might just beat the Pixel 6a and Galaxy A53 for your attention.

Earlier this month, Motorola announced three new smartphones in China market — the Moto Razr 2022 clamshell foldable, the X30 Pro flagship with the world's first 200MP smartphone camera, and the relatively affordable S30 Pro. It feels very likely we'll learn about global plans for the Razr soon, and the other phones are expected to make their international debut under the company’s Edge branding. We're preparing for that today, as we check out a few renders about what sure seems to be the Moto S30 Pro we'll get in the West.

Motorola is readying the first smartphone to bring a 200MP Samsung ISOCELL HP1 sensor to the average consumer. Although the sensor has been around for a while, a recently released sample image may give you buyer's remorse for picking up that expensive mirrorless camera.

If there's one thing Motorola loves to do, it's releasing a phone (or two, or three) for every price point. Back in March, we learned all about the company's planned roadmap for 2022, including the Moto Edge 30 Pro — the Edge+ stateside — and its little brother, the Edge 30. While we wait for Moto's upcoming Frontier flagship, we've also been keeping our eyes out for an early glimpse at "Miami," the lowest-end model of the group. Finally, our first look at Motorola's upcoming budget-friendly device is here, and it could be the affordable smartphone you've been waiting for.

Motorola revealed the Edge 30 Pro back in January as the company’s flagship for 2022, and now its mid-range sibling has been made official for the first time. This isn't meant to be a flagship competitor though with a mid-range spec list and price. The Moto Edge 30 Pro eventually made its way to the US under the title Motorola Edge+ 2022, but there’s no sign of the Moto Edge 30 coming to the country so far.

Another Motorola phone is expected to be on the way, and some leaks suggest it’ll be called the Moto Edge 30. That’s set to join the Motorola Edge 30 Pro family, which was revealed in China late last year and recently made its way to the US under the name Motorola Edge+. A new leak shows us the first real-life photos of the rumored Moto Edge 30, and it looks like what you’d expect from an upcoming Motorola phone.

Last month, Motorola's launch roadmap leaked, revealing the company's plans to release four more Edge phones this year. One of the possibilities was the vanilla Motorola Edge 30 (codenamed Dubai). We've already seen some of the phone's suspected specifications, but now we get to see the device — alongside the Moto G 5G (2022) — in all its glory, courtesy of leaked official images.

Motorola kicked off 2022 by launching the Moto G Stylus earlier this month. Now, it’s preparing for the launch of another smartphone: a rebranded version of the Edge X30 that debuted in China in December. The phone is expected to be named Moto Edge 30 Pro in the US, and it's set to launch on February 24. While we already know a lot about the phone thanks to the recent leaks, a new report from WinFuture leaves almost nothing to the imagination.

Motorola launched the Moto Edge X30 — the first smartphone to rock Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC — in China last December. Reports suggested that the phone would enter global markets as the Edge 30 Pro, and we even saw renders and specifications of the smartphone a few weeks back. Now, Moto has teased an upcoming launch on February 24 via its social media handles. The #findyouredge in the teaser hints at a launch of an Edge series smartphone, which would likely be the Edge 30 Pro.

Motorola has a lot of releases in its pipeline, including several budget phones like the Moto G Stylus 2022, but a lot of eyes will also be on whatever the company has planned for the high-end. The Motorola Edge 30 Ultra has leaked a few times in the past, and it's set to be one of the best Moto phones in a good while. Now, we know that it might take more pages from Samsung than just the Ultra moniker.
