Motorola Edge 50 Ultra - user opinions and reviews

Just bought this for roughly $700, for the 1TB/16GB model along with matching color moto buds+ (wood color and beige buds) and 6 month screen protection for free.
Initial impressions are real good, UI is silky smooth and has zero bloat with exception of Facebook, which I can uninstall. Everything seems to be working without issues or bugs, took a few pictures and they look quite nice (to me) but there is a 2 or so second processing delay between shots. Speakers are great, battery is too soon to judge but not draining too fast while installing apps. Selfie is seriously high detail, its almost frightening. I like the vanila like UI with moto added features, not all useful to me but I can see their use.
Overall great, fully featured package as long as it is not bought at MSRP. Big selling point to me was it's unique character in a sea of Samsungs and iPhones (not hating on either, just not my cup of tea).

Hi.
I have had this phone for 2 weeks and I have some screen issues: there are 2 black horizontal lines on the screen, that are visible especially when the screen is off, but in some light conditions when the screen is on also. I can still return it to the store I bought it from but I love this phone and I would love a new one that is not faulty.
Has anyone heard about this type of isses with Edge 50 Ultra phones? Is it a common problem or is this isolated?

The Nikon 1 range of compact cameras was criticised, and effectively killed off, for only having a 1" sensor, yet now a phone is praised for having a camera with a same sized sensor.

TerryM, 28 Jun 2024How many critics of the phone have actually used one?This is my problem too. I shared my experience about my xperia and people who never touched one started trolling because they saw the phones spec sheet and they thought they knew everything. Annoying

I was seriously considering buying this phone (it was in my shopping cart), but unfortunately I have dropped my plan for the following reasons -
1. Motorola seems to be delaying with the software updates for its previous generation Edge phones and Razr phones. Also there are reports of multiple software bugs on every major OS update. This seems disheartening when they are charging a premium price.
2. Several users are complaining about camera lag and also heating while performing simple daily tasks. They experience that the thermal throttling seems aggressive which causes lags and stutters.
3. Handling this phone with the curved screen edges can cause miss-touches and seems unintuitive for anyone who is used to flat screens.
Now, I'm thinking about going for either the Samsung Galaxy A55 or maybe next year's A56. Can you suggest some other alternatives please?

I'll be most interested to see what improvements they've made with the camera.
I have a 2022 plus, it's a powerful phone, but the camera isn't on the same tier as the Samsung's flagship.

For our Edge 30U, the 1/1.22 Sensor size is carrying it, not the 200MP resolution.
But if we vrop to 3Times. We have 22.2MP on am 1/3.66 Sensor.
Which is almost 4 Times smaller than the 1/2
64MP periscope at 3 Times. (And almost exactly 3 times the resolution).
It obviously results in 3-4 times in detail as well.
As just the main sensor, is about equal.
The Edge 50U having F/1.6 so it is slightly better at low light with an marginally smaller sensor.
And when zooming, it can do 2 Times with the main cam anyway, with better results at night.
(Also the edge 30U uses its 200MP camera as an 12.5MP one except you go in 200MP mode 50MP mode, or specifically record in 8K then it also 50MP.
Video recording in 4K60 will result in just cropping into an 12.5 MP sensor.
It's still a good camera but what the edge 50U does is just way better.

Camera upgrade and IP 68 rating that's the only plus point I think Edge 50 ultra has. 64 mp periscope is equivalent to Edge 30 ultra main 200 mp sensor. SD 8S Gen 3 at price point of 60k INR?? Even IQOO 12 with less price and better hardware and specs is giving SD 8Gen 3. Motorola needs to step up their game by actually giving Flagship chipset and Higher camera resolution. They have improved alot in past 2 yrs but their software update policy still falls behind many other brands.

The camera setup looks like Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra but without a tiny screen
