But no sd card, or changeable battery, or audio jack. Vote with your wallets. I like moto G series, but edge lines are terrible
I have an edge 30 pro and I’m super happy with it. There is no bloatware at all, default android experience, and great battery time.
I tend to recommend Motorola to people who care about those things.
How are the thermals? I hear they have heating issues due to their slim profile.
Not warm at all except when charging with the super charger. This is for the edge 30 though, maybe 40 or 50 have different thermals since they have more powerful cpu.
I’m currently looking at edge 50 as a replacement but not sure which one to get. But not the ultra, very expensive and not worth it.
Changable batteries, maybe, for the environment. But I’ve never used a phone long enough for this to matter because unoptimized software starts crippling phones after 4 years anyway.
This is absolute bollocks. Unless you are buying dogshit budget phones, they all continue to run fine after 4 years. I have phones from 2017 and 2018 that continue to operate without major issue today. Until very recently most Android phones weren’t even receiving feature updates beyond 4 years so I suspect you’ve just completely fabricated this story to justify your upgrades.
One phone in my family is a 2017 2018 flagship, and people are amazed how snappy it is (they don’t know it’s from 2018).
Its running a fork of Lineage, with 2 or 3gb of ram (I forget). Because it’s so optimized, even with a bunch of apps (~200), it’s fast and battery does pretty well.
Old phones can run fine, but they have to be managed to do so.
Edit: 2018 flagship.
I don’t even really care about fast charging. As long it can fully charge while I’m asleep I don’t care if it takes all night.
