New Motorola Edge Motorola Edge+: return to the high-end of Motorola

Since the beginning of this year, there are many rumors about the return of Motorola to the high range. Already in February began the first leaks about it, which showed that the mark would leave us with a top of the range in this sense. The return is double, because the brand leaves us with two phones at this time: the Motorola Edge Motorola Edge+.

Leaks about these two phones have not ceased in these weeks, some days ago, percolated details on the Motorola Edge+. Now we have already all the details on the new high-end of the brand, in which the model Plus stands out for its curved screen and specs of top of the range.

We arrived at the eighth generation of the Motorola G, a range which enjoyed a great success in its origins. How will revisit the sweetness of success the Motorola G8 Plus?

Two identical models but with different specifications

The brand has surprised with a radically different design to what we are used to on your part. A curved screenas we have seen in phones like the Huawei P40 Pro or the OPPO Find X2 Pro, a trend in the high range. In this screen, we find ourselves with a piercing, where is the front camera of your phone. The design has not been a surprise, because already in march, saw a video with the design of this Motorola Edge+.

In the rear of the two models we are with four camerasalthough the sensors are different depending on the model. The sensors on the Motorola Edge+ is better than that of Motorola’s Edge normal (the main sensor is 108 Mpx, for example). The specifications of the two models are different in that while the model Plus belongs to the high range, the normal model is situated more within the mid-range premium.

What has been a clear commitment of the brand for this range has been the presence of the 5G. In the phone of high range is not surprising, since that is something almost forced in a phone high-end in 2020. For the normal model has been used Snapdragon 765G as a processor, that provides the telephone connectivity 5G, in addition to a good performance.
