Best phone I've ever had!
This is a great phone. I have been using it for a couple of weeks and have been very pleased. I do not plan on upgrading for the next 5 years because of how amazing this phone is. It is a great investment if you're looking for an upgrade in hardware with a moto phone. Honestly this phone kind of feels like an iphone and it looks bougee, but the os is android. I like the freedom that android devices have (can use any app store, not locked to just apps you have to spend ludicrous amounts of money on). This phone is also unlocked so you can use any provider that you see fit. I honestly don't know why more people in America haven't switched to using Motorola. Pros: 1. Connection: can use 5g data, and with my data plan I have good cell reception. Bluetooth is very snappy since this phone uses the newest Bluetooth 5.3. It also uses the latest Wi-Fi 7, and I think it's backwards compatible with older versions too. 2. Touch screen and UI: screen is curved, gives a modern look though I personally could care less. Touch screen haptics are incredible. The UI is breath-taking and very responsive and easy to use. Again, very reminiscent of an iPhone. The UI is highly customizable, you can even have settings for accessibility like having color-blind options or increasing the font size. You have the freedom to change how many apps display on one page, and can change the shape all of your apps have (circle, square, round-edged). This phone also has many options with widgets. I have a page where I have some of my favorite contacts as a widget so it's quick to access them. You can even have widgets for google maps, google calendar, etc. so that you can view things in that app without having to open it. Also looks way cooler. 3. The finger print scanner is built into the bottom of the touch screen. This is great! It is truly an improvement and should not be overlooked. It is also much easier to scan your finger compared to previous designs with earlier moto phones. I have had poor experiences with previous moto phones because my other phones had the finger print scanner built into the power button on the side of the phone. This was inconvenient, and after years of use it got gunky and wouldn't reliably scan even if you cleaned it. 4. Camera: the camera is absolutely incredible, and probably one of the main draws to this phone for me personally. Previous moto phones don't even compare. Uses AI to adjust things like white balance to make pictures look good without having any photography know-how. It has amazing zoom, common photo resolutions like 9:16, and lots of options like portrait modes, slow motion video, and improved night vision. It also has a 'manual' photo taking mode if you like to have more control over the camera settings. A notable improvement is the reduced file size for pictures even when they are the ultra-res pictures. They take up less space when compared to earlier moto phones, while having a truly incredible and professional quality. This would be great for social media people, small businesses, or anyone that wants easy professional-quality pictures. 5. Battery: as with most moto phones the battery life is amazing. Can go about 2.5 days without charging with minimal use (no streaming, YouTube, screen off most of the day). Charges freakishly fast with the charger included when you buy the phone. Fully charges in less than 2 hrs. The charger is a usb c port so you have more options for charging, and have the added benefit of using the usb c cable for file transfer or downloading custom apps. This is a great feature for app developers. 6. Design: the back is some sort of carbon fiber or metal material. I LOVE this. I avoid phones that have back glass. In my not very humble opinion it is a flawed design to have glass as the backing, and those types of phones are guaranteed to break eventually. As an outdoorsy person I like a phone that is more hardcore and durable. 7. The built-in speakers are actually pretty good. The phone uses dolby atmos drivers, and it shows. One day I forgot my Bluetooth speaker, so I just blasted music in my kitchen from my phone speakers and both the volume and quality were surprisingly good. Cons: 1. No aux cable port. Very inconvenient if you car doesn't have Bluetooth, or if you don't have Bluetooth earbuds. This does force you to upgrade other tech you have, if you want to listen to music or use a mic for voice commands and hands free access during driving. 2. No micro SD card slot. (This is made up for with a large internal storage, but I personally like to have options) 3. At the time of writing this, there are not a lot of options for a phone cases or screen protectors. I saw that there was an otter box phone case for the edge 2022, so I am hopeful that will eventually come out for this phone too.

Motorola edge plusV2023 vs. Samsung S23 FE
My wife has Samsung Galaxy 23 FE and I decided against it as I needed more memory. I will be the first to say I'm glad I did. I will compare a few points I've noticed in using both phones. First the build on both are very durable and and quality is evident in both designs. Both are IP68 water and dust resistant. Although Edge+ uses victus and I'm more confident of it's durability than the Fe which employs Gorilla Glass 5. Edge+ also has a better feeling while holding and using as the FE is heavier and the shard corners start to aggravate after sustained periods of use. The Edge+ comes out on top with the memory at an amazing 512GB where FE only harbors 128GB. Both boast 8GB RAM although as a content creator would love to have seen 12GB RAM, BUT I've yet to run into problems while editing videos. Yet again Edge+ takes it with running on the Snapdragon gen 2 chip and the FE on gen 1 which the FE does heat up very quickly and I've had problems with editing on it. The cameras well both are great, both have the ability to use duel record although the Edge+ seams to have better quality with normal pictures within certain light conditions and the FE surprisingly has better low light pictures. Edge+ takes another win on battery and charging I think this is a given as the Edge+ comes with a 68W quick charger and comes with a 5100 mAh battery compared with the FE 4800 mAh. Again this is a very notable difference especially when making and editing video's. Now the final nail in the coffin for me was the screen the Edge+ has a 6.7 in screen compared to the FE 6.4 in. I'll add that the Edge+ has a brighter screen with a clearer display, please consider it's a curved glass which is harder to protect but the curve isn't as drastic as on my old S10+ and I haven't encountered as many accidental screen touches, although there's been a few. In conclusion is it perfect NO I would love to had 12GB RAM, it's not offered at major carriers which limits getting cases easily in your local area. Unfortunately as beautiful as the reverse glass is with the frosted look it's black or nothing, no color in this world. This last complaint isn't even mine as I'm not a Netflix fan, BUT many have complained that it doesn't support HDR on Netflix. There's so much more I could say about what I love with this phone and very little of my dislikes. I'm going to end on a FE win as the Edge+ dominates almost every other aspect the FE has 1 yr less support than Samsung, although with 3 UI and 4year security updates I should have this phone for quite some time before worrying about buying another. In closing my wife is thinking about switching to Motorola and as of this review the only other phones I would consider over this one would be S23 Ultra and Pixel 8 pro for a android phone. But when comparing price against what is offered the Edge+ wins every time. Pictures took with a Samsung S23 FE

Excellent Value
I've had this phone for a few weeks now and am greatly enjoying it. I am switching from a Galaxy S23U and aside from a camera downgrade, this device exceeds it in almost every way. 1. Battery life is exceptional, I can always get a full day out of it without issue, and if I'm a bit nicer I can stretch it into two days. 2. Performance is very strong thanks to the flagship CPU. Operation is fluid, there is no stutter, and apps/games run without issues. 3. Display is also very good. 1080p is totally fine for this screen size and the 165hz refresh rate keeps everything looking very smooth. 4. Eye Sensitivity options are great. Flicker free option is a life saver and the display itself is much kinder to the eyes for those with PWM sensitivity. 5. UI is very minimalist and Motorola's extras are very nice. twist to open camera and chop for flashlight are very useful. Personally I still prefer the customization afforded by samsung but Motorola is providing valuable customization that help bridge the gap. 6. Camera is pretty good in strong light scenarios and pretty decent at night, but its closer to something like an S21/21 or an iphone 13 than anything current gen. 7. 512gb storage as standard is very convenient. Great device and excellent value for the price.
