![]() If Motorola brought the price down just a bit, it would be much easier to recommend. I’m still not a fan of the plastic frame, and I really don’t like that one of the cameras is just a depth sensor. ![]() It’s a nice first crack at returning to higher-end devices by Motorola, and I’d like to see where they go from here. In the grand scheme of things, this is a minor gripe.Īll in all, I still like the Edge+. ![]() It was a bit frustrating to download a new app, and search for it in the app menu, only to find out that I’d have to manually scroll down to it if I wanted to add it to my home screen. It’s easy enough to turn off the search suggestions, but weirdly you can’t drag any apps onto the home screen from a search. I’m not sure if this is true for all Edge+ devices or just the ones loaded down with Verizon bloatware, but the app drawer is annoying to use. That's not a great start for a phone that already lags the competition in update support.Īnother place I’d like to see an update is the app drawer. Click Start if your Android device stays broken screen, black screen or non-responsive screen, you cannot enter password or cannot touch the screen. For example, the Edge+ is still on the same February security update it shipped with. That's appreciated, but I’d like to see that same attention paid in other places. Since the original review, Motorola pushed out an update to the camera app, focusing on making it easier to access some of the cool camera features. While I’m not a fan of the color replication of the camera, I’m at least confident that the way I see pictures on the display is the way they actually turned out. That being said, the display continues to be a highlight of this phone. I thought that might just be how it looked on the screen, but after double-checking on my PC, the color issues were still present. In addition to my earlier complaints about the camera, another thing I’ve noticed is that reds and greens come out significantly oversaturated. I don’t think it’s a bad device by any stretch, it just feels out of step with the rest of the market, like it would be much more at home around the $800 price point, like the base model Galaxy S22. While it has the latest flagship Snapdragon processor, up to 68w fast charging, and a display with a 144Hz refresh rate, it also has a lot of cut corners that make it hard to justify spending the money that Motorola is asking. Before the release of this phone, Motorola had taken a bit of a break from making flagship devices. The Edge+ has been my daily driver for a while now.
