Motorola Edge Plus 2023 Review: Moto’s BACK, Baby!
Source: Know Your Mobile
EN→zh-CN
So, should you buy the Motorola Edge+ 2023? If you’re after high performance, a vibrant display, and excellent battery life at a competitive price, this phone is a strong contender. Of course, the problem here is that phones like the Pixel 8 and iPhone 15 cost the same and have better cameras. The Moto Edge+ 2023 is a solid phone, one of the best we’ve seen from Motorola in years. But the drawbacks of this phone – versus its relative price – mean it is hard to recommend over a similarly priced phone from either Google or Apple. Motorola’s cheaper phones have decent USPs. They’re cheap and run great. But it is harder to make a flagship phone compelling. Life’s tough at the top. You cannot afford any weak links. Sadly, the Edge+ has just a few too many to get our seal of approval over something like the Pixel 7 or OnePlus 11.

Motorola Edge Plus (2023) review: Finally cutting edge
Source: Android Authority EN→zh-CN
One final rival for the Edge Plus (2023) to tackle is Google’s Pixel 8 Pro ($999 at Amazon). In fact, the Edge Plus (2023) is probably closer to the premium Pixel than it is to the vanilla model. Both phones share nearly 6.7-inch displays, though the Edge Plus has the faster refresh rate and curves on all four sides. Google’s rounded edges and soft-touch glass back give the Pixel 8 Pro a better feeling in the hand, too. While you get a wide, ultrawide, and telephoto trio on both devices, the Pixel 8 Pro is a clear winner in terms of zoom capability and image-processing power, you’ll just have to live without the in-depth manual controls that Motorola offers.

Motorola Edge Plus 2023 Smartphone Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News EN→zh-CN
Overall, the Motorola Edge Plus 2023 smartphone is not a bad deal for users who are looking for a stock Android experience with better battery life and fabulous display quality. Not to forget, the Motorola Edge Plus 2023 is powered by the Snapdragon Gen 2 chip and offers a pretty solid matte black design layout. It got a better design, built, display, powerful chipset, state of art photography, and long-lasting battery. We have always been a fan of Motorola phones, but they almost every time fall behind our expectations. Hopefully, that’s not the case with the Moto Edge+ 2023. It got everything that is needed inside the flagship phone in 2023. The device can certainly fulfill all your expectations be it performance or photography. Presence of fast wireless and reverse wireless charging support add to the benefits of having this device.

Moto Edge+ (2023) review: It's time to take Motorola seriously again
Source: Android Police EN→zh-CN
If Google, Samsung, and OnePlus aren't doing it for you these days, I think you'll find yourself pleasantly surprised by the experience Motorola has cooked up here. Excellent performance, a quality display, and a slick — in more ways than one — design makes for a solid smartphone, and the $800 price point for a single 512GB tier is hard to ignore. It's not cheap, per se, but as an unlocked device, it manages to undercut the competition by a couple of hundred dollars. Obviously, this phone isn't perfect. The camera is competent — certainly a step above other recent Motorola phones — but it fails to reach the highs of what you'd expect from a modern Android phone, especially once you swap lenses. Likewise, readers have plenty of reason to be suspicious of the company's software policy; its poor reputation in that area precedes it.

Motorola Edge+ (2023) Review: Moto Got Its Mojo Back
Source: Hot Hardware EN→zh-CN
The Moto Edge+ (2023) is an excellent flagship. It offers a gorgeous design, a beautiful display, superb audio, top-notch performance, solid battery life, and a delightful user experience. Other than the cameras – which are competitive but leave some room for improvement – there’s little else to fault here. For the first time, Motorola’s taken one of its best global phones (the Moto Edge 40 Pro) and brought it to North America unmolested. Plus at $799, the value proposition is hard to beat. The Moto Edge+ compares favorably with Samsung’s smaller Galaxy S23 ($799) and beats the more affordable OnePlus 11 5G ($699) with features like 4k selfie video and wireless charging. Yes, Google’s Pixel 7a ($499) and Pixel 7 ($599) are also worth considering, but fall short on performance. Plus the Moto Edge+ comes with 512GB of storage, vs. 128GB for the others. So, in the end, we highly recommend the 2023 Moto Edge+. It’s available today from Motorola, Amazon, and Best Buy for $799.

Motorola Edge+ (2023) review: Moto's back, baby
Source: Android Central EN→zh-CN
Motorola has done a remarkable job of turning its Edge+ lineup around, from the mess of last year's phone to the brilliance of this year's model. This phone is a real winner, from the performance to the battery life, quick charging (with included brick), and the excellent camera. Plus, the design is obscenely gorgeous and is actually IP68-rated, unlike last year's phone. The camera is mostly great but a few strange shortcomings prevent it from being better than it should be. Zooming in past 2x has substantial diminishing returns and video recording is best kept at 1080p so all the features can be used. So long as those aren't deal-breakers for you, though, this is a superb choice at $799. Plus, I can't personally be happier with the display. In a world where so many OLED displays push the limits of display quality without thinking of the human eyes that have to view it, it's nice to see Motorola implementing vision-protection standards that make a real difference.

Motorola Edge Plus (2023) review: a Pixel 7 Pro and Galaxy S23 killer
Source: Digital Trends EN→zh-CN
There’s no doubt that the Motorola Edge Plus (2023) is one of the best Motorola smartphones in years — if not the best. Motorola’s been trying to crawl back into the flagship race since it launched the first Edge Plus in 2020, and while that first model was a good phone for the time, all attempts to follow it up have felt misguided in different ways. Just about everything I want in a high-end Android phone is here. The Edge Plus looks and fees great, the display is outstanding, performance is rock-solid, the software is organized and helpful, battery life is phenomenal, and it doesn’t take too long to get the phone back to 100% when it does eventually die. The best part? You get all of that for hundreds of dollars less than similar phones from Google and Samsung.

Motorola Edge Plus (2023) review: Motorola's best phone in years
Source: Tom's Guide EN→zh-CN
The Motorola Edge Plus (2023) is clearly Motorola's best attempt yet at building a premium phone. But is that enough to make you choose this device over more established competitors? Ultimately, I'd have a hard time picking Motorola's phone over the Galaxy S23 Plus, Pixel 7 Pro or even the OnePlus 11, as those phones offer cameras that perform a little bit more consistently than the ones on the Motorola Edge Plus. When conditions are right, Motorola's phone can capture images that hold their own against any top camera phone. But there are too many instances when post-processing goes awry, and the portrait mode on the Motorola Edge Plus doesn't impress as all. That shouldn't detract from the things Motorola gets very right with this phone.

Motorola Edge Plus Review: Refined Style and Specs, but Still Lost in the Crowd
Source: CNet EN→zh-CN
The Motorola Edge Plus is the latest premium smartphone aimed at the US, and an all-around upgrade on last year's Edge Plus. With its big battery and competitive price, Android fans have another top-tier contender to consider when phone shopping. Motorola has refined its premium phones under Lenovo over the years, adding some features and taking others away in an effort to find the right combination that will appeal to top-tier phone buyers. The newest Edge Plus is the best combination so far. But it's also not exactly the same phone sold around the world, since Motorola releases slightly different versions in different regions. For instance, the Edge Plus available in the US is virtually identical to the Edge 40 Pro in Europe and elsewhere, but has a larger battery and more modest recharging speed.

Motorola Moto Edge+ (2023) Review
Source: PC Mag EN→zh-CN
Together with the recently released ThinkPhone, Motorola has renewed its competitive flagship roster. The Moto Edge+ packs snappy performance, above-average cameras, and excellent battery life into an appealing $800 package. The Edge trounces the Pixel 7 Pro in raw power, produces clearer shots than the OnePlus 11 5G, and far outlasts the Galaxy S23 when it comes to battery life and charging speeds. It's the most of nearly everything you can get in an Android phone for well under $1,000, earning it our Editors' Choice award. If budget isn't a concern, however, the $1,199 Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra remains our top pick for high-end handsets due to its incredible display, top-notch cameras, and class-leading software upgrade commitment.

The Edge Plus is closer than ever to being a true flagship contender, but it needs something to push it into the spotlight. The foundation is there: excellent battery life, a lovely big screen, a good camera system that’s occasionally great, and user-friendly software. And I think there’s a place for this device with the Motorola faithful looking for an upgrade-worthy phone right now. But without that little extra something — and Edge lighting ain’t it — and especially without the big carrier freebie deals, this generation of the Edge Plus is destined to remain overshadowed.

Motorola Edge+ (2023) Review: Android Flagship Phone Greatness With One Major Flaw
Source: Slashgear EN→zh-CN
Overall, this phone is generally frustrating. While the hardware is great, and the software is right there with it, the cameras are extremely disappointing, and there are a lot of small points here and there that seem to indicate a lack of attention to detail — such as the UI hiccup with face unlock. Still, what Motorola is offering is not completely crazy. This is still a powerful flagship with half a terabyte of onboard storage for a penny less than $800. That's not bad, but there's a lot of competition at that price point that may not give you that much storage but will be as good or better in every other area. When pitted against the OnePlus 11, the Samsung Galaxy S23, and even the iPhone 14, there are enough minuses here to recommend taking your money elsewhere.

Motorola Edge+ 2023 Review: A True Flagship Contender
Source: Nextpit EN EN→zh-CN
The Motorola Edge+ (2023) is a real contender among flagship smartphones: at a price of just under $800/€900 and a powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, along with 8/12 GB of RAM and 256/512 GB of storage, as well as a 6.7 OLED display with a refresh rate of 165 Hz. The Lenovo subsidiary delivers across the board in terms of performance. If you look really hard for negative points, you will find them in the camera performance, which is not quite on the same level as the competition in night photography and the telephoto camera. The battery capacity of 5,100 (4,600 mAh) is not only competitive compared to the competition, but it also outperforms the competition in the "PC Mark Work 3.0" battery test. On top of that, Motorola includes a 68-W Turbo Charger in the box, which pumps up the smartphone from 0 to 100 percent in just under 30 minutes. The update guarantee, a slim Android 13 without bloatware, and great "Moto My UX" and "Ready For" features make the Motorola Edge+ (2023) a real alternative in the flagship segment.

Motorola’s new Edge+ (2023) could potentially take on the S23 Ultra
Source: Mobile Syrup EN→zh-CN
In a few weeks, I’ll put this handset through its paces and compare it to Samsung’s and Google’s phones and see whether its pricing is worth the money in your wallet. While I’ve reviewed the top Android devices in the Canadian landscape for the past couple of years, typically, I’m left unenthusiastic about the dullness of the marketplace. While Motorola hasn’t disappeared like Sony and LG, it has definitely taken a back seat for a while, especially considering some of its devices don’t launch in Canada or arrive later than in the U.S. However, I’m looking forward to testing Motorola’s new flagship, and it’s great to see that it launches in Canada at the same time as the U.S. Edge+ (2023) may not be for everyone; however, it could possibly be the Android for me.

The Motorola Edge Plus (2023) is the latest flagship handset from a phone maker that may be better known for its midrange and budget offerings. This phone looks to change that with improvements to the Edge's design, display and camera array aimed at better challenging handsets from Apple and Samsung. Improving on the Motorola Edge Plus (2022), this year's model upgrades to a 165Hz refresh rate, more premium materials, and a versatile telephoto lens for portrait photography. Shipping as an Android 13 phone, the Edge Plus could be one of the best Android phones Motorola's yet made.

Motorola Edge (2023) Review
Source: PC Mag EN→zh-CN
The 2023 Motorola Edge is a competent midrange phone with plenty of standard storage, loud speakers, an excellent display, and super-fast charging, but it falls short of the Google Pixel 8 in terms of battery life, camera quality, and software support. Those flaws shouldn't prevent you from considering the Edge, however, since it retails for less and is often available at a deep discount (we've seen it for as low as $349.99, making it a terrific deal). Motorola fans who want it all, meanwhile, should consider the more well-rounded Edge+ for $200 more.

Motorola Edge (2023) review: Should you buy it?
Source: Android Authority EN→zh-CN
Video tops out at 4K and 30fps. I was surprised at how passable the video was; the 4K video is sharp and relatively bright. However, the 30fps is dismal at this price point. You’ll probably still get better overall results with 1080p video, which supports 60fps, as it looks much smoother. Despite some blemishes, the 2023 Edge is a solid offering from Motorola, and the price is palatable at $600. The soft faux leather on the back is a refreshing change from the sea of glass slabs, and it’s nice to use a big phone that isn’t enormously heavy. If you don’t mind the camera weaknesses, some pesky bloatware, and you’re not worried about timely software updates, this could be a solid option. It’s a reliable, lightweight device that won’t break the bank or your back.

Motorola Edge 2023 review: so stylish!
Source: Phone Arena EN→zh-CN
Again, at full price, we can't see how the Edge 2023 can win against its contemporaries. It may turn out that it will either be discounted often, or its official price will drop in a short while. That said, let's assume you pick up the Motorola Edge 2023 for $350 — the price it's listed at right now, during the Black Friday deals period. At that price point, it's a pretty fair ask! Yes, the camera is mediocre by today's standards, and it's not a gaming device. But the style it oozes, the beautiful screen, the fast charging, and the speakers — they are good. Use it as an essential handset and it will serve you very well for your $350!

Moto Edge (2023) review: It's complicated
Source: Android Police EN→zh-CN
I don’t think anyone who buys the Motorola Edge will walk away disappointed. There was never a point in testing where I wanted to run back into the arms of a flagship device. But these phones don’t exist in a vacuum. The Moto Edge can be a reasonable effort and still not be the right choice for many people — they aren’t mutually exclusive. If you’re a fan of stock Android but turn your nose up at Pixel phones, the Moto Edge is worth a look. It has solid performance, good battery life, a decent camera, and a sleek design — but it’s missing features that would make it a slam dunk at $600 or even $500. When it’s so easy to talk yourself into another relationship, is it really worth settling?

Moto Edge 2023 Review: A premium mid-ranger with an emphasis on premium
Source: Android Headlines EN→zh-CN
The Moto Edge 2023 has the misfortune of Being the less premium sibling to another phone. Because of this, it’s so easy to think of it as a low-powered or low-performing device. It would either push people to opt for the more expensive sibling or just ditch the line altogether. However, the Moto Edge 2023 is one of those phones that make you forget that you’re using an affordable device. Whenever I pick up the phone and feel the heft in the hand, look at that beautiful display, or observe the smooth performance, it never dawns on me that I’m using the cheaper version of a flagship handset. Just about every aspect from the display to the speakers to the performance to the build quality all betray this phone’s price. I didn’t feel like I was getting a below Flagship level experience, I felt like I was getting a true-to-form flagship experience. Don’t get me wrong, as this phone does have its flaws. They are few, but most of them manifest in the camera performance.

Motorola Edge (2023) Review: Better Feel, Decent Power
Source: Slashgear EN→zh-CN
The Motorola Edge is a well-rounded device, with an excellent display, great battery life, and an acceptable camera system. The device had no issues keeping up with everyday tasks like web browsing and a few games. The battery more than held its own and the back of the device remained cool to the touch. The only thing that lets it down is Motorola's track record with software updates — and the tough competition at the $600 price point. If you can find this device on sale, then it has the potential to be an absolute steal. Without the sale, something like the Pixel 7a is going to be a better buy for the money — and a better all-around device that takes better photos. If you want to spend the equivalent, the newly announced Pixel 8 is going to easily best the Motorola Edge. If you love Motorola, want a phone that feels great in your hand, and aren't worried about software updates, then the Motorola Edge 2023 is a fantastic device.

Motorola Edge (2023) Review: The Right Compromises
Source: Nextpit EN EN→zh-CN
The Motorola Edge (2023) is probably the better alternative for many in the brand's 2023 lineup, although the Edge+ (2023) is also a good deal at just under 800 dollars. However, the base model costs quite a bit less in Europe, offering a good compromise compared to the concessions. However, it remains to be seen how the US model will be priced... Motorola offers a solid MediaTek Dimensity 8020 in the Edge (2023), which is probably a souped-up Dimensity 1100 processor, but still sufficient for daily applications. In addition, there is a 6.55-inch display with a very good resolution and a dual camera that digitally stores pictures that are appropriate for the times. The 4,400 mAh battery will certainly get you through the day—rather, over two days. Haptically, the lightweight is pleasing all along the line.
