Reviewing the Motorola Edge 50 Pro, a fresh 2024 Moto flagship sporting a triple lens camera with Pantone colour correction, slick leathery design and Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 smarts. But can the Motorola Edge 50 Pro compete with the best smartphones like the Nothing Phone 2 around this £599 price? And should you consider the Edge 50 Ultra instead?

Well, the performance is sadly limited compared with some close rivals. Gaming on Genshin Impact is a smooth enough experience, but I saw some lag using the cameras. Battery life is respectable however, as the Motorola Edge 50 Pro can happily last a full day as long as you don't hammer the camera or play games non-stop. You've also got fast charge support, to power the battery back up in little time.

Those cameras are once again cause for consternation, though. That primary shooter struggles in lower light, despite producing bright, bold, natural images in clear daylight. The Moto Edge 50 Pro also disappoints when it comes to video capture, while the zoom skills are limited.

That pOLED screen is a stunner though, and I like the stock Android vibe. As usual, Motorola's own apps are excellent. So there's a fair bit to like about the Motorola Edge 50 Pro, but sadly not enough to sway from a Nothing Phone 2 or other affordable flagships.
