Motorola Edge 50 Series Use Wooden Material
mOtorola has just announced a new family of its flagships line, the Motorola Edge 50 series. This series features three new models, ranging from premium to medium, available in various finishing variants, from vegan (plastic) leather to wood. And as with other Androids, Motorola bets on the features of artificial intelligence-based software to attract users.
Edge 50 Ultra: New Motorola Flagship
The Edge 50 Ultra is the most capable of the three devices. It has a 6.7-inch Poled display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8S Gen 3 processor—the successor to the regular Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which drives the competitor’s flagship—and 16GB of RAM, commonly found on Android devices that claim to be power processing. The Edge 50 Ultra also has a 4,500 mAh battery with a 125W turbopower charger. Motorola claims you can charge enough for a day’s use with only four minutes on the cable.
Rear camera system
The rear camera system is where Motorola hopes you will give it another chance. This is a series of three cameras with a 50 MP primary camera with OIS, a 50 MP ultrawide camera, and a 50 MP telephoto camera. Features enhanced by artificial intelligence in the camera app can enhance its capabilities, including a new photo enhancement machine that will perfect your shots after you take them and a long exposure mode to take photos of the “moving” waterfalls and lights at night.
Finishing variant
Edge 50 Ultra has several finishes, including vegan leather in Forest Grey and Peach Fuzz. There is also the Nordic Wood already mentioned, which barely looks like wood in marketing drawings. This idea is reminiscent of when an Android brand like LG, which is no longer in the smartphone business, is trying the back of the skin with the LG G4 to add a premium feel. It will be interesting to see how the back of the device is aging over time.
other variants
Other devices in the Edge 50 family include Edge 50 Pro and Edge 50 Fusion. Edge 50 Pro features a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 mobile processor and 12GB RAM. It also has a series of three cameras, and is available in a variety of vegan leather finishes, plus a polymer version called Moonlight Pearl. Edge 50 Fusion is a slightly trimmed version of the Edge 50 Pro. It has a Snapdragon 7S Gen 2 processor and up to 12GB of memory—there is an 8GB option available, as Fusion is supposed to be the cheapest of all variants. The rear camera system is a series of two cameras, and is available with a bright pink suede vegan back layer. The Motorola Edge 50 series starts at €700 and doesn’t have a launch date in the US yet. The device will debut in Europe first, followed by Latin America, Asia, and Oceania, which includes Australia and New Zealand. Motorola may have other plans for its US users later this year—there is no leak whether it will involve a wooden back or a vegan leather.
