After spending more days with the new Motorola Edge 30, we confirmed everything said in those first sensations we had. One of those mobiles catches you because of how light it is, its slight weight, and how well its personalized layer is worn with some details that you like quickly.
And it is that this Android phone has almost everything to make any user looking for something different in the concept fall in love; we return to its specifications of lightweight (155 grams) and being so thin (6.79 mm). Perhaps with optical zoom, it would be the icing on a cake that we like to taste these days when we have the new Motorola in hand.

Another aspect where it stands out, apart from its screen and how complete it is, is in its autonomy to do it well. And it is that when we are usually in front of Android terminals with its 5,000 mAh battery, here it stays at 4,020 mAh to make it clear that Motorola has taken advantage of every millimeter to make it the thinnest and lightest 5G mobile on the market.
Performance
If the Google Pixel 6 already offered exquisite performance to value Android 12 in the Moto Edge 30, we return to the same to enjoy an exceptional user experience like no other terminal.
Everything moves quickly and without concern, mainly because we are facing one of the closest and purest custom layers to Android. It is also supported in a significant way thanks to a series of applications, but yes, we miss our gallery app.
In the bowels of this Android phone, we have the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G+ chip, which is accompanied by 8 GB RAM and 256 GB of internal memory. It goes far enough to generate the experience we see in larger mobiles.
The sound is another facet that is not overlooked, and the stereos with Dolby Atmos generate that sound capacity for bass and treble that puts gaming at a great height with the Moto Edge 30.
Photography
The Motorola Edge 30 has three cameras on the back a 50 Mpx main one, a 50 Mpx wide angle again, and a third 2 Mpx for macro photos.
We keep the main one to leave a complete photograph that dazzles in broad daylight with a tremendous dynamic range and without extra effects to reflect the actual color.

A detail that also stands out is its ability to capture movement (there is a photograph of a fountain in El Retiro Park where you can see very well with the drops frozen in time) and thus leave stunning shots.
That ability to give actual tonal values and that dynamic range offer a great experience to take good photos with this Motorola mobile. Yes, it may fail a bit in the sharpness of the details, but at a general level, we liked it a lot.
Design
The design of the Motorola Moto Edge 30 stands out first in the module with that vertical rectangular format in which the texture matrix is visible.
The matte finish of the back also gives it its point with a metallic side that achieves a beautiful harmony between all these elements. Perhaps the part that limps the most is the module, especially in its shape, but in this way, you can also distinguish this series and phone.
your screen
We have mentioned that the Moto Edge 30 is a complete terminal in all its corners, and one of them is the 6.5″ AMOLED screen with a refresh rate of 144 Hz that brings back perfect memories for gamers; PC monitors first and ideals were with that frequency.

In fact, by default, the rate is configured automatically, so we recommend setting it to 144 Hz for great fluidity in all the animations that emerge from Android 12 and that change in color and more.
That said, the screen of the Moto Edge 30 is another of the reasons of great weight to value the final purchase of this Android device.
There are enough photos in the photo gallery that leave a trace of the capacity of the Motorola Moto Edge 30 that we appreciate with very nice shots. The same happens with the contrast that plays its cards for some photos.
The wide angle also stays well placed without us having felt any severe failure or error with the photographs taken.
Night photography, my When you enter there is some critical point of light, it comes out well, although, in very dark photos, the night mode does not help much to reflect reality. Sharpness is lost, and a lot of blurs and watercolor images. It is its most negative point, although if we return to a light topic, it works well, so we must be vigilant in this section.
Now, we have to say that even with the phone updated to the latest frontal photos, the selfies oversaturate the skin’s red to cloud the experience. Let’s hope they release an update soon to correct this small detail, but it is clear that it is not a phone from China that makes faces more straightforward.
Autonomy
Playing APEX Legends Mobile with the default graphics has taken 8% of the battery in 30 minutes, which is not bad. An hour on the screen with half an hour playing reached 79% from 93%.
The fast charge works so that in 10 minutes, it can go from 79 to 95% to leave good impressions, and we are not facing other ultra-fast charges from different terminals.
Your custom cape

We again emphasize that it lacks its image gallery app. Pull Google Photos, but for specific tasks, such as opening an app very quickly and having the latest photos taken on the main screen, we finally have to look for life.
It does have a correct gaming mode with many options such as screen recording, darkness detector, capture sharing, high performance, or blocking calls or notifications, among other settings.

It has customization options through the wallpapers with a dynamic theme present. And in short, it gives us the feeling of being a light personalized layer that does not want to overwhelm the user as others do.
Here again, Motorola knows how to distinguish itself by using critical aspects such as the sounds of notifications, either fantastic or that calls. A point that picks up from those years and years of experience in mobile telephony.
