Motorola’s cycle of reinvention has been underway for a few years now. The company’s portfolio might not have set the smartphone world ablaze, but Motorola’s focus on essentials like a clean interface, performant hardware, and basics like fast charging has paid dividends.
The latest in the series, the Motorola Edge 50 Pro, builds on that excellent base and introduces a series of world’s firsts. I’ve spent the last few days putting the phone through its paces, and here are my first impressions. Before we go any further, though, I should clarify that this isn’t Motorola’s expected new flagship that you’ll be able to buy in the US, but if recent years are anything to go by, this global model should give us an idea of what to expect from the Edge 2024.
