Motorola Edge 30 Ultra / Motorola Edge X

Good looks ; Impressive camera system ; Great performance and multitasking ; Blazing-fast charging speeds ; 125W charger and a case in the box ; Good value for money

Display prone to accidental touches ; Uncomfortable design ; Night photography still isn’t on par with the competition

Among the fastest smartphones we've tested. Plus long battery life and lightning-fast charging. Plus great screen quality with 144Hz refresh rate. The design is elegant and robust at the same time.

A heel has been chopped and a toe cut to keep the price down, so the phone has to settle for IP52 certification and Gorilla Glass 5 screen protection. The OLED panel also deserved a higher resolution than FHD+. The biggest problem, however, is the...

The Motorola Edge 30 Ultra is the Lenovo-owned mobile manufacturer’s best bid for an absolute top mobile in recent times. In particular, the towering performance, long battery life and fast charging lift the overall impression significantly. Moreover,...

Convincing 144 Hz POLED display ; Powerful (CPU & battery) ; Convincing overall camera package ; Lightweight operating system ; Rich Dolby Atmos sound ; 3 Android version and 4 years of security updates

200 MP resolution is not everything ; Does not lay flat on its back ; No memory expansion option

Do you want to know my final verdict? I don't think I've ever found it so difficult in my 11-year career as an editor. It is a real dichotomy here. The Motorola Edge 30 Ultra is, on the whole, a very high-quality Android smartphone that leaves little...

Fast charging at 120W is speedy ; Main camera is generally impressive ; Attractive 6.7-inch display with subtle curve ; Powerful processor makes everything run a breeze

Battery life isn't great per charge ; Not everyone will want a curved-edge screen ; Camera can easily misfocus with close-up shots ; Some unexpected software hangs (unusual for Moto)

I've found using Motorola's Edge 30 Ultra to be a general joy from start to finish, thanks to a generally great main camera (focus issues ignored anyway), stacks of power on tap, and a curve-edge screen that, while it won't be for everyone, does give...

Curved glass design makes it very comfortable to hold ; Stylish camera design ; 144Hz display ; Super fast 125W charging

IP52 water and dust resistance isn't great ; Yet to be seen if 200MP camera is a gimmick

As flagship phones go, the Moto Edge 30 Ultra certainly ticks all the right boxes on paper. It's got a top tier processor, lots of RAM and storage, a high-refresh HDR10+ display and strong-sounding camera system. Whether that leads to a top tier...

144Hz OLED display ; Best-in-class performance ; Excellent value ; Phenomenal battery & charging

Camera is good, but not great ; Poor IP rating

The Edge 30 Ultra is a surprisingly excellent flagship from Motorola, with top specs all around and only few flaws. Performance is as good as it gets, battery life is excellent, and the software excels too. At this price, it’s a steal.

Screen, style, performance and battery all deliver ; Capable, versatile cameras ; Exceptionally fast charging

Sub-par waterproofing for a high-end phone ; No expandable storage, 3.5mm port

A rapid-charging powerhouse of a phone with a superb set of cameras… for a tantalising price
