Someone you have asked me about WiFi performance or any issues on this Moto Edge 30 coz the earlier Moto Edge 20 had WiFi issues, I did not have any Wifi issues hence I didn't mention anything about that in the review. In-fact now I have made my WiFi testing even more strict I now test all devices with 2 separate WiFi routers one is the regular old 2.4 Ghz Band and the other router I use it the new WIFi 6 on 5ghz band and for the Motorola Edge 30 I didn't face any wifi issues with both routers.
Hi Sir, yes I asked that question. Thanks much for the reply. I am planning to buy moto edge 30. But unfortunately they removed Redmi note 5 pro from the list of exchange devices when they launched this phone.
BTW I forgot to mention this Motorola Edge 30 is also available offline in Reliance offline Digital stores, so you can check it out physically first and then buy it.... instead of buying from flipkart.
I asked a reliance digital store last week, few days before launch. They had no idea on such a phone.. Need to check this week again. Also, is HDFC credit card offer available in offline stores too?
They actually don't , I called up 4 of the reliance digital stores near me ,all of them said it won't be available offline, they suggested me to order online via their website, which I did. But I wanted to check the feel and camera before hand, but anyways, happy with the phone,will update once I receive
@@happy_man_x i think you have not watched geeky Ranjit's latest qna video where he mentioned that he was in touch with high authority in motorola and they told that they release updates after quite a bit internal testing so it doesn't degrades performance or add bugs. Personally i think it's better to get late update rather than buggy update. 😀
@@advaithkrishnaar9071 This is uMcp5 which is version 5 of uMcp. keep that in mind. Those could be other versions of uMcp which is close to ufs 2.1/2.2
Motorola is surely back in the game with such good value for money launches. Their clean software without any ads or bloatware is surely their major USP as compared to others.
Finally someone pointed out at the only downside of this smartphone, 500 nits of peak brightness... None of big reviewers including him mentioned about it in their unboxing videos.....
i checked this today at croma and was so impressed by 1 thing.. the apps opening speed - wow its like blazing quick i have not seen any other phone like that. i feels like the click effect happens even before u click it haha. the only 1 problem with this is the battery. 4000 and 33w charging will not do for me. im curious to know about the edge 30 pro i think that will be the perfect one for me
@@sheikhzahidali7711 if it reached all limits, there would be no competition. there would wouldn't be us complaining about 256 GB variant, or the not so great brightness.
The only tech youtuber who never blatantly praised overpriced oppo, vivo, samsung phones when other tech reviewers are nothing but lap dogs of these companies. The companies give the dogs a treat(a whole lot of money and review units for giveaway) and the dog wags his tail and praises his master.
Just got mine delivered today . Good phone with clean UI, light weight, bloatware free , camera , processor. Only need to check battery backup otherwise everything is solid
Congratulations for the new phone. I am planning to buy it too. Just wanted to check something. Does this model allow you to have multiple user/guest user?
@@DolphinsAreBetterThanHumans Comparing with Samsung A series it has a fast charger ,stock UI , good for gaming n better processor. S20 fe is equal with edge 30 in most points with both having slight adv in one or two parameters but cost 6-7k more after discounts n is old device with one Android update left. Unless camera is ur only priority go with moto edge 30. N it's not like moto camera is bad it's just not as good as s20fe
geekyranjit the best tech reviewer in my opinion right now comes straight to the point preapares proper notes of pros and cons and gives his honest takes and covers all the aspects of the product and talks about the product and nothing else unlike some other tech reviewers who are busy showing how good their studio looks and all that and wasting the watcher's time and not covering all the aspects of the product
A couple of years back Moto phones were not aesthically pleasing but now they not only perform like a champ but also looks premium for a upper midrange phone with glass back. Good Job Motorola.
When moto phones used to come with curved backs and silver bars on top and bottom bezels, I actually loved that look. Used a moto x play from 2015 to 2018. I love the fact that today moto is doing so well
I felt cheated when lenovo took control of moto. But now I see, lenovo has not only managed to save motorola from doom, it also made it such a value for money brand today. If lenovo didn't bought moto it would've disappeared just like nokia

@@sanjunandi1627 how to make phones special then? Being slim is one of the points that makes moto edge 30 special So 4K battery with proper optimisation is ok in my books if the phone's special
Many reviewers came and will come in future, but the review I get from here is Platinum level. As if I am feeling the device myself without even touching it.
Ranjith you are extremely reliable for such reviews. You're the best in nation who covers almost all the phones to review and give your honest opinion in a way it helps us to pick what we really want with the budget we have. Never was I disappointed with any of your reviews or videos. Proud of you. Keep making dope content. 🙌🏻
10:41 A more latest linux kernel makes a great difference in software experience, not sure if others care but its great that moto is shipping 5.x kernel now. Others are so far behind.
Yeah that's one of the best things about this phone. They went all out with performance and optimised efficiency. I also can't believe the realme 9 comes with 4.14 when very smooth fast and stable 4.19 kernels (without sources btw) have been developed for my redmi note 7.

almost all reviewers forgot the basic about smartphone i.e. the call quality and network reception ( most primary function), but apart from you all others reviewers fail to tell about call quality and network reception, even they don't bother to include this primary feature in their reviews. I'm very thankful that you always mention this in your reviews.
Tl;Dr after sale service of Motorola is terrible Phone is really good Long story: I got this device open box and I need to mention some things. When I brought the device home 4G signal was simply not there. My older galaxy S7 had perfect 4G+ signals. I changed the sim and put my sim card in other phones as well. It seemed like the owner had messed up with the device and had sold it. Took it to the service centre the next day and found that the service engineer was not there. I came back the next day and not to my surprise, the phone had been repaired twice in the last 1 month which they checked on their system. I explained the issue and they fixed my phone. There was an antenna cable which got unplugged from the main board. 4G works now. but as soon as I came home I noticed that the back panel had come off. It was wobbly, and with a simple pry with my nail I could see the internals. One thing to mention here is Motorola has no official service centre in India. That means they'll authorise 3rd parties to do their service on their behalf. These 3rd party service centres are generally a hit or miss. Though they'll give you quality assurance but most of the time they can't do their jobs properly. I have even heard these people intentionally spilling water on the phone on the workbench to get the customer to pay as liquid damage is not covered in warranty. I took the phone a few days later to find that the service technician had not come yet again. (kudos 👍) And had to take a day off from University to go to the service centre the next day. Today I got my phone fixed. Though the back panel is not wobbly but it's uneven and an expert can tell that it's not completely shut. Initially they even refused to open the phone at all and just pasted glue without even opening the back panel. But after I insisted they complied. The person at the counter couldn't even tell that the frame of my device was made of plastic and had to “bla bla bla sir, as your frame is made up of metal” which I had to correct that the frame was indeed made up of plastic as I couldn't let her elaborate her lies because they think the customers are fools and they can get away with anything they say. bottom line: The after sale service of Motorola in India is really bad. If you're lucky you might have a good service centre around you but in my case that was not true. About the phone This device is excellent. It is really fast and smoother than any Android phone I've ever tested (second to iPhone 13 pros). Yes you'll notice the difference between 144 and 120 hz. In auto mode the display works at 90 hz although many online reviews suggest that it can also dial up to 120hz. Battery life is really good. Now coming to the bad part. Though the proximity sensor works fine it will work consistently if you bring your face close to the earpiece. So sometimes there are accident touches while taking calls. Sometimes WhatsApp call will only work though the earpiece as a normal phone call even if the speaker mode is on. If I turn speaker mode off then again on, the audio gets really buggy and the other person sounds like speaking old Latin. :) Only solution is to hang up the call and call again then it'll work fine. This is rare but it does happen. Hopefully they fix it with an ota update regarding the screen I was earlier using a quad hd 1440p Samsung galaxy S7 and the panel quality was excellent. though it was 60hz it didn't support hdr and 8 bit. Still I'd say the display quality was better on that phone. It got wayyyy brighter in direct sunlight under auto brightness and in the moto display (though I can't confirm this about other units) I can see a grid of pixels if I look carefully. If you see that once it's difficult to unsee. But I can live with that. Now the reason I can't guarantee that you'll notice this too is because my device is second hand 1 month old. if the previous owner had dropped the display and got it replaced then idk maybe the replacement unit has issues. But in terms of smoothness I'd say it is really really smooth and the display panel I'd say is OKAY. If you're coming from an ips panel then it's a hell and heaven difference and you won't even notice all the nitpicking that I mentioned. P.S Get a case and a good quality screen protector and order online cause you probably won't get a case anywhere locally and all the screen protectors have fitting issues and cover some part of the screen. The body of the phone is slippery and you'll find accidental touches here and there so having a case is nice. thumbs up if you find it helpful :)
I bought this for my mom last week. Used it for a few days myself. As a OnePlus 8 Pro owner, I feel this phone is a lot smoother than the OnePlus, better screen , so much better software than Oxygen OS, trust me. The stock android 12 that Moto offers with it's customisations is pretty impressive. The cemara quality may not be at par with the high end flagships, but then they're almost twice as costy. I had also purchased a OnePlus Nord for my father , and I'm blown away by the difference. OnePlus kinda sucks now.
bro, Ranjit mentioned that brightness is low in sun/outside, is it invisible outside in sun? i am considering for my mom, in too low light screen, it wont be visible for elders, also since elders have vision problems and cant view dull screen
Greetings from Germany. This is the best review I have seen yet for this phone. All German reviews suck compared to this one. Great job, very impressed with the detail. :) Definitely getting this phone
Sir, I think you're one of the only reviewers who actually provides battery stats when talking about battery which i feel is really important. Keep up the good work. I don't get why other reviewers don't do this, it's really important for us to see them to get an accurate idea..
Companies like Nokia, LG, HTC and Sony would have never failed if they really cared about customer and their products. Motorola is an example that they can do better.
Recieved this phone today, and such an amazing phone, no comparison of stock Android feel with any other UI. Played BGMI with frnds who are having Poco X2 and Poco F3gt, battery drainage after 1 hour 44 minutes of gaming on Poco X2 was 35% and on Moto edge 30 it was 26% . Charged from 32% to 100% in 35-45 minutes . And I forgot to mention this actually has the best stereo speakers and sound quality as Ranjit mentioned, every word he said in this review is true.
Being an avid user or Motorola since the Razr series, I am so happy that Motorola could pull this great device at such am amazing price point. Motorola has been doing almost everything right for the past 2 years. Kudos to Motorola 🎉

Before buying make sure, is 128gb enough for you, as there is no expandable storage, as I am waiting whether Motorola introduces any other 256gb variant🤔

Great Review! I just got mine (Edge 30) yesterday. So far, I am loving it. Things I love w/ the Moto Edge 30... - Loud Stereo Speakers - 144hz Refresh Rate w/ pOLED display - Stock/Pure Android 12. Zero Bloatware - Snapdragon 778+ 5G is fluid and efficient - Slim and Lightweight - OIS works in wonders especially when shooting video in 1080/60fps - Fast Charging 33w Things I Don't Like w/ my Edge 30... - Camera (Hopefully updates will improve the camera capabilities)
@@smukherjee9231 I am not sure why I couldn't load the GCam from the app store. So I just installed the app using an apk file. The Quality of the shots improved and also there were different options for the use of the Video Stabilization. The only problem with Gcam on Moto Edge 30 is that it crashes after certain photos were taken. What version do you recommend me to use? Thank you ^_^

@@bottlesoda1389 Main and wide camera has really improved, its reliable now. Front cam misses HDR sometimes. Battery and performance is impressive Dual speaker is good, loud but vibration is felt at the back if volume goes beyond 60%
😢 If only. I'd still buy those colorful versions like the Lumia series. They were just so uniquely designed. I always preferred the plastic body because it stands up to usage for longer and doesn't break when it falls.
@@akramm.8543 I see another windows phone chad. Honestly, those phones felt smoother to me back then compared to the 90hz phones of today. I had a lumia 930 that I purchased in 2015 for 27k and it was such a good and reliable phone. Everything in that phone was so good be it the speakers, display, camera, games I have lovely nostalgic memories playing with all it's features. I had to buy an android phone for some apps that were not there windows phone so I also bought a moto x play. The moto was good but felt so choppy and laggy compared to the lumia. I also installed developer preview of windows phone 10 on my lumia😁. Sadly the phone went dead a couple years back. If only Microsoft managed this os and apps better then maybe we would still have competition in android ios duopoly.
Having purchased the MOTO G71 5g a month back, I am facing issues with shuttering and lag on media playback on applications such as Zee5, Disney Hotstar, Sony Liv and Aaha. There is same issue is in other models like g51. Looks like the issue is prevailing since the release of the phone and continues to be reported for a while now by many users, and I do not see any updates around the fix still. Sir, please highlight this issue with moto team and help us.
@@arushsharma8383 apart from this shuttering issues the device is good. If u don't use Otts and looking for a mid ranger without bloatware and adds it's a good fit.
Thank you for the excellent review of this phone. I am glad you assessed the call quality and radio performance , these are usually neglected by most reviewers as they concentrate mainly how it looks/feels etc
No Nothing, let's Buy this Beauty!! Almost similar specs apart from the physical build and That Glymph interface. Ranjit try to make a comparison video between Nothing phone 1 and moto edge 30. It's time you start making the Comparison videos again . Nostalgia

It's like the Motorola team wanted other phones to look competitive by not including extendable memory and no gorilla glass and no 256gb version. Except this things, almost no hesitation to buy this mobile. Also, no headphone jack.
Love the content sir as usual. I had purchased my last (& currently still using ) phone mi A1 by Xiaomi no regrets and now finally gonna buy this moto edge 30 bcuz i feel it had everything I need except the 3.5mm jack. But most phones r giving up on it in the name of water resistant. Idk what kinda ppl use electronics in the pool or washrooms. But thank u great help in always selecting the right phone
after listening to some so-called 'influencers' ' negativity i cancelled my edge 30, TWICE. but a few days ago i relied on my gut-feeling and finally bought keeping in mind the sensor size and micron size of the camera. it's truly a wow-phone. and by 'camera' i mean, rear camera. selfieholic is a mental illness. the main camera lens holds excellent sharpness. unlike edge 20 which had a tremendous falling of sharpness beyond a small circle at the very centre. this lens also has proper depth of field. so all objects in the same focal-plane remain in almost-equal focus and sharpness. the focusing-speed is instant, as advertized. you just twist your hand, open camera and point. bam! instantly-focused. iso is so much lower as compared to a 108mp, as expected. the huge micron-size helps here a lot.
Can anyone confirm how is the after sales service of motorola ...becoz i have. Heard some bad things about after sales service and that is the only thing that is stoping me buy motorola
was waiting for pixel 6a, but this moto is just better and cheaper, commendable job done by motorola! They should also launch a phone around 20k with the same specs as g52 but with better processor
Ranjit you should not bring S22 between this moto review. this is literally torture 😂😂 especially when people like me are confused between samsung and moto. 😂😂
Samsung has its own advantages over any other phones, irrespective of the As, Ms and Ss. Secure Folder, Edge Bar and Knox are pulling me from going to any other phones. I am on my A50s for the past 3 years. But they have to listen to consumers and improve their unreal pricing of the devices. I can't digest their Exynos somewhere, SnapDragon elsewhere policy too.
@@jomonvarghese4692 that is true. i am 12 year old customer of Samsung and it's very hard to leave them especially because it feels safe in hand honestly. and how can we forget call recording feature.
@@chakravartin369 yes, call recording. absolutely. But what makes me think umpteen times before eyeing Moto Edge is the imbalances in their recent phones. I would have definitely gone for S20FE 5g, had it's screen was as good as my A50S. And upon that battery drainage issues. A73 has unrealistic pricing. I don't want to spend more than 35K INR for a phone. Now I made up my mind to spend the money on Moto Edge 30 with a heavy heart. 💔
@@jomonvarghese4692 one of my friend just purchased s20 fe during fest discount a week agoat 32k, he is not facing any draining issue. many friends have this device it easily gives 6 hours SOT. and yes it is great device with some flagship features. a73 is unrealistic that's true. but i am confused between a33 5g , a52s and moto edge 30. may be i will go with a52s i guess
Only reviewer who will do long videos.......but....but.....but.....his genuine review will make clarity on the devices who want to buy......tq Ranjit Sir for your honest reviews.....and I am big fan of Motorola since Moto E2 that I used.....now I want to buy this amazing device which I missed a lot from 5-6 years........😍
Thanks for the in-depth review of this device. I was really curious about the storage type, now I'm clear. Btw you could just mention which camera sensor is used in the main camera that would be more beneficial for us. Great job sir. ❤🙏
Best thing about Ranjit Sir is that he reviews the call quality of the device as well. No other channel does that and calls are one of the most important aspect of a phone. Thank you sir
I bought it for 26k from Flipkart. They actually charged 30 rupees extra, which is unbelievable... Camera needs updates, battery could've been a bit better like edge 20, I do miss headphone jack and tempered glass is a must. Otherwise the phone is brilliant. Edit: also I like how moto is now providing features with stock. For example 3 finger ss, screen rec, game mode etc
Quick question: Does the phone have a linear (x/z axis) vibrating motor or something rotational like an ERM? Your videos have always been helpful and amazing, although - Haptics fanatic here so it's a deal breaker for me personally. I'd really appreciate it if you could include haptics as a segment in your reviews for future devices.
1st time experiencing x axis linear motor on Realme 9 Pro +. I tried using my Xiaomi Redmi 9, which is my device before 9 pro +, i felt the linear vibration is very annoying.
@@BullioMaguirio for real! I had the Moto G7 which surprisingly came with a z axis vibration motor at ≈16k price lol. Upgraded to Moto Edge 20 Fusion and I'm really disappointed with the haptics, phone feels unusable at times...badly tuned for a rotating motor.
@@nocturnal_sushi I never had experience with z axis anyway. In fact, I used linear motor budget phones before and this is my 1st experience using x axis.
The Flipkart Seller is bullshit specially the one who's selling this phone it's pathetic the Rating is 3.7 so guys just be alert before purchasing this device from Flipkart i prefer go offline !! 🙂
Bro how is the call quality , as i m a heavy call user and watsup , even pleass tell me about internet speed , are there any frequent call drops , kindly advice
Really well thought out video. Loved how you managed to cover everything in depth for every kind of user. I like the longer summary section of the videos. Please include this in every review that you do. Just two questions: The Edge 20 suffered from a weird wifi bug wherein the wifi reception dropped pretty quickly once you moved away from the router. Is that fixed? Also is the stuttering issue in videos on OTT platforms fixed? That was a thing with the edge 20 and many moto devices.
Same. I am thin. My wrists start getting weaker during long playtime or shooting videos with heavier phones. I am sure the experience will be better especially when in mood of clicking some pictures! Yes, there maybe frequent charging but luckily it comes with USB A to C type cable that my powerbank can take. phew!
Different people different priorities! Ranjit is saying the battery life of this phone is good at the moment. What about 6 months later? If you change your phones every year then its okay!
I don't think the battery will degrade with frequent charging in 6 months not even in 2 years I feel except accidents. If used the same charger provided in the box without overcharging the phone, the battery can stay healthy for 3 years good. Also it provides longer screen on time compared to expensive phones like iPhone 12 mini and S22 :P
Hi, I lov ur analysis. Coming to night n low light photos, I kept it on *Pro* mode *AF* at minus 3200 n *-/+* at plus 3, I got nice pictures. By this we can avoid 'avoid auto night mode changing'
They have been excellent phones all along...had a moto G1, then moved to g5 plus ( current one) and now looking at buying the edge 30. Dropped each a gazillion times but they keep on working fine.. reminds me of my old 3310
I am using Moto G82 since last one year.. it's an amazing experience...v good UI, no hanging, no issues at all...best camera.. certainly better than oppo, Vivo, xiaomi phones
Hi Ranjit Sir. I'm looking to buy two new phones one for my mom & other for my sister. Should i go for this or nord2,A52s,A53,m52,S20FE or any BBK phone (iqoo 9 se, realme GT2,neo3 or 10r). Is camera better than A52s,a53,m52,nord2 & gt2. Gaming is not a priority but camera, battery & 3 years of lag free experience is what i am looking for.

ranjit...i follow your channel quite seriously... disappointed that you confirmed along with other initial youtubers that edge 30 has good cameras...whereas all the actual users confirmed it's cameras are horrible...any suggestions
@@sipraghosh7241 It is overall a good phone with excellent performance and stock android experience. You will get a typical day battery life with auto refresh rate and don't expect more than that. Rear camera is okay for me and the night shots are really good. I am not a selfie person so front camera is not an issue for me.
I'm thinking of buying it in December 2022 and can anyone tell me some things: 1. How is the practical build quality as it doesn't have a glass back 2. The battery (can it go more than 1 day in normal and heavy usage). 3. How is the camera in practical use ( the front one importantly) 4. And is it STILL WORTH BUYING ?
Hi Ranjit, I currently have the OnePlus 7 right now which I purchased at only 33k with the snapdragon 855 Performance wise it's still nice, camera is nice but battery has become really weak But looking at the phones now at 33k i feel that unless I invest 50k+, I'm getting a phone worse in processor and performance than even my 3 year old OnePlus 7, should I wait for things to get better or is there no option but to invest more than my 35k approx budget Please do see this, and reply or include it in your Q&A🙏🙏
I also have one plus 7 pro , 3 years old but still gold just having battery dip (got it at price 44k) I also think that now I can't go back to non premium smartphone, what i really look forward is for Samsung s23 ultra
I just realised how in interviews of CEOs by most Indian youtubers are like "hmne aapke liye laaye hain masaledaar sawal" but the reality is "sir aapne jo sawal diye the poochhne ko, wahi poochhenge, Don't worry".. but ranjit sir has always been different..❤️
Thank you Ranjit sir for this detailed an in-depth review. Was a bit sceptical about the battery life and screen on time with that 4020 mah battery, but your video cleared my every doubts. As I'm planning to purchase a smartphone under 50k for my dad, it's in my checklist. Can you please suggest some other good device under 50k segment, so that i can compare between 3-4 devices? My priority is camera, battery and smoothness in terms of day-to-day usage.
i checked this today at croma and was so impressed by 1 thing.. the apps opening speed - wow its like blazing quick i have not seen any other phone like that. i feels like the click effect happens even before u click it haha. the only 1 problem with this is the battery. 4000 and 33w charging will not do for me. im curious to know about the edge 30 pro i think that will be the perfect one for me
POV: Every device, whatever, should come out with a con for sure by giving a chance to other oem in the same range, as no company wants to stop manufacturing by giving out one last ideal phone. Even if moto does it, the future of all phones including moto will struggle. Just adding, monopoly market/ideal device is not healthy almost all the time.
Hi Ranjit, i am a big fan of your work because of your honesty in each work you do but today i have something else to say other than appreciation. I wanted to buy a phone for my sister which has a good camera, battery and performance. I saw your unboxing video of this moto edge 30 and then after 2 3 days i saw your this review video. Everywhere you have mentioned that this is an excellent phone for a price of 26-28k. I have bought this phone for my sister just because you mentioned that it is a great deal to grab and it have everything and all those stuff you said. Well, this phone is *pathetic* . The camera is worst i have ever seen. My 3 year old redmi 10k mobile has better camera than this. Here no optimization is there in camera. Performance is like nightmare. It hanged on the first day itself and the gestures doesnt work many times. You have to literally try for 5 6 times to make it work. The fingerprint sensor is bad. The battery drains very very fast and i had to charge it twice a day. I more disappointed with you than this phone. I have trusted you always and believed whatever you have said in past. I think you should post another review with honest feedback.
Get your handset replaced something is wrong with your unit.... Camera as I said in this range the Realme 9 Pro+ is better, but the camera is way better than prior Moto phones but other things what you are mentioning I didn't have any issues as I have shown in the video.
Edge 30 and other motorola phone has started showing green pink lines on thousands of phones. Search on Google their forums and TH-cam. I purchased this phone after watching video so thought I'll come and update. If you wish you can make a video about this and maybe motorola will help us like OnePlus is helping affected users.
Once again, the best and honest review of the new flagship killer. Hope Moto won't follow the footsteps of OnePlus. Moto is slowly coming back in the race with premium devices at affordable price just like OnePlus did till OnePlus 7 series.
Follow footsteps? Moto was always revolutionary.. Pioneer with many things.. Check what they did with making 5000mah battery a standard in most of the phones and sharing billion color display, OIS camera and all with G series... Never used any other brand since 2012. 💪💪💪💪
Sir I have seen a lot of reviews of mobiles on your TH-cam channel... But I have to say one thing.. I likedd this video so muchhh. B'coz you just gone into depth of the smartphone.. I like this way of making video along with you iconic honest opinion.. Hats off..🎓 Plzz make all the smartphone review video like this
Before this phone came out I kind of considered going for the realme 9 pro plus but the only thing holding me back was the lack of NFC which is a very important feature for me.. So when this phone came out i was really happy.. I seriously love stock Android 12, it looks more beautiful than any of the other UIs and is also fluid.. And this also has NFC.. I don't understand why the manufacturers remove NFC in India. It's such a basic feature and should be there in all phones costing 20k+
Someone you have asked me about WiFi performance or any issues on this Moto Edge 30 coz the earlier Moto Edge 20 had WiFi issues, I did not have any Wifi issues hence I didn't mention anything about that in the review. In-fact now I have made my WiFi testing even more strict I now test all devices with 2 separate WiFi routers one is the regular old 2.4 Ghz Band and the other router I use it the new WIFi 6 on 5ghz band and for the Motorola Edge 30 I didn't face any wifi issues with both routers.
Does it flickers in video calling?
Hello Ranjit, loved the video as always. Got a question: does the phone have a rotational vibration motor or something good like a linear one?
@@nocturnal_sushi rotational motor
Hi Sir, yes I asked that question. Thanks much for the reply. I am planning to buy moto edge 30. But unfortunately they removed Redmi note 5 pro from the list of exchange devices when they launched this phone.
Sir ji please review sony x75k tv
BTW I forgot to mention this Motorola Edge 30 is also available offline in Reliance offline Digital stores, so you can check it out physically first and then buy it.... instead of buying from flipkart.
I asked a reliance digital store last week, few days before launch. They had no idea on such a phone..
Need to check this week again.
Also, is HDFC credit card offer available in offline stores too?
They actually don't , I called up 4 of the reliance digital stores near me ,all of them said it won't be available offline, they suggested me to order online via their website, which I did. But I wanted to check the feel and camera before hand, but anyways, happy with the phone,will update once I receive
Not really man i did visit them but they don't have this one
Hi @geekyranjit sir, I just joined IIT Hyderabad. Wanted to meet you from a long time. What could be the possibilities?

Absolutely. Ranjit has always been a class apart.
I was looking for storage type (UFS) details and you cleared my doubts, thanks. No other reviewer did this analysis, so 5*s for the review. Cheers!
A couple of years back Moto phones were not aesthically pleasing but now they not only perform like a champ but also looks premium for a upper midrange phone with glass back. Good Job Motorola.
It's not glass back but definitely looks better than those devices with glass back in this segment!
Acrylic but way better than glass. Looks soooo good in reality. Also it won't shatter.
When moto phones used to come with curved backs and silver bars on top and bottom bezels, I actually loved that look. Used a moto x play from 2015 to 2018. I love the fact that today moto is doing so well
I felt cheated when lenovo took control of moto. But now I see, lenovo has not only managed to save motorola from doom, it also made it such a value for money brand today. If lenovo didn't bought moto it would've disappeared just like nokia

10:41 A more latest linux kernel makes a great difference in software experience, not sure if others care but its great that moto is shipping 5.x kernel now. Others are so far behind.
Yeah that's one of the best things about this phone. They went all out with performance and optimised efficiency.

Tl;Dr after sale service of Motorola is terrible
Phone is really good
Long story:
I got this device open box and I need to mention some things. When I brought the device home 4G signal was simply not there. My older galaxy S7 had perfect 4G+ signals. I changed the sim and put my sim card in other phones as well. It seemed like the owner had messed up with the device and had sold it. Took it to the service centre the next day and found that the service engineer was not there. I came back the next day and not to my surprise, the phone had been repaired twice in the last 1 month which they checked on their system. I explained the issue and they fixed my phone. There was an antenna cable which got unplugged from the main board. 4G works now. but as soon as I came home I noticed that the back panel had come off. It was wobbly, and with a simple pry with my nail I could see the internals. One thing to mention here is Motorola has no official service centre in India. That means they'll authorise 3rd parties to do their service on their behalf. These 3rd party service centres are generally a hit or miss. Though they'll give you quality assurance but most of the time they can't do their jobs properly. I have even heard these people intentionally spilling water on the phone on the workbench to get the customer to pay as liquid damage is not covered in warranty. I took the phone a few days later to find that the service technician had not come yet again. (kudos 👍) And had to take a day off from University to go to the service centre the next day. Today I got my phone fixed. Though the back panel is not wobbly but it's uneven and an expert can tell that it's not completely shut. Initially they even refused to open the phone at all and just pasted glue without even opening the back panel. But after I insisted they complied. The person at the counter couldn't even tell that the frame of my device was made of plastic and had to “bla bla bla sir, as your frame is made up of metal” which I had to correct that the frame was indeed made up of plastic as I couldn't let her elaborate her lies because they think the customers are fools and they can get away with anything they say.
bottom line: The after sale service of Motorola in India is really bad. If you're lucky you might have a good service centre around you but in my case that was not true.
About the phone
This device is excellent. It is really fast and smoother than any Android phone I've ever tested (second to iPhone 13 pros). Yes you'll notice the difference between 144 and 120 hz. In auto mode the display works at 90 hz although many online reviews suggest that it can also dial up to 120hz. Battery life is really good.
Now coming to the bad part.
Though the proximity sensor works fine it will work consistently if you bring your face close to the earpiece. So sometimes there are accident touches while taking calls. Sometimes WhatsApp call will only work though the earpiece as a normal phone call even if the speaker mode is on. If I turn speaker mode off then again on, the audio gets really buggy and the other person sounds like speaking old Latin. :)
Only solution is to hang up the call and call again then it'll work fine. This is rare but it does happen. Hopefully they fix it with an ota update
regarding the screen
I was earlier using a quad hd 1440p Samsung galaxy S7 and the panel quality was excellent. though it was 60hz it didn't support hdr and 8 bit. Still I'd say the display quality was better on that phone. It got wayyyy brighter in direct sunlight under auto brightness and in the moto display (though I can't confirm this about other units) I can see a grid of pixels if I look carefully. If you see that once it's difficult to unsee. But I can live with that. Now the reason I can't guarantee that you'll notice this too is because my device is second hand 1 month old. if the previous owner had dropped the display and got it replaced then idk maybe the replacement unit has issues. But in terms of smoothness I'd say it is really really smooth and the display panel I'd say is OKAY. If you're coming from an ips panel then it's a hell and heaven difference and you won't even notice all the nitpicking that I mentioned.
P.S
Get a case and a good quality screen protector and order online cause you probably won't get a case anywhere locally and all the screen protectors have fitting issues and cover some part of the screen.
The body of the phone is slippery and you'll find accidental touches here and there so having a case is nice.
thumbs up if you find it helpful :)
I bought this for my mom last week. Used it for a few days myself. As a OnePlus 8 Pro owner, I feel this phone is a lot smoother than the OnePlus, better screen , so much better software than Oxygen OS, trust me. The stock android 12 that Moto offers with it's customisations is pretty impressive. The cemara quality may not be at par with the high end flagships, but then they're almost twice as costy. I had also purchased a OnePlus Nord for my father , and I'm blown away by the difference. OnePlus kinda sucks now.
What other phones you considered? Did you look at 6A and Edge 20 PRO as well?
how would you rate the camera performance out of 10?

Motorola please make small phones, (6 inch would be nice) not everybody likes a big phone.
Sir, I think you're one of the only reviewers who actually provides battery stats when talking about battery which i feel is really important. Keep up the good work. I don't get why other reviewers don't do this, it's really important for us to see them to get an accurate idea..
Companies like Nokia, LG, HTC and Sony would have never failed if they really cared about customer and their products.
Motorola is an example that they can do better.
Recieved this phone today, and such an amazing phone, no comparison of stock Android feel with any other UI. Played BGMI with frnds who are having Poco X2 and Poco F3gt, battery drainage after 1 hour 44 minutes of gaming on Poco X2 was 35% and on Moto edge 30 it was 26% . Charged from 32% to 100% in 35-45 minutes . And I forgot to mention this actually has the best stereo speakers and sound quality as Ranjit mentioned, every word he said in this review is true.
what was the charge percent on both the phones when you started to play?

But most phones r giving up on it in the name of water resistant. Idk what kinda ppl use electronics in the pool or washrooms. But thank u great help in always selecting the right phone
Same with me, i m also using A1 still
Same with me bro
after listening to some so-called 'influencers' ' negativity i cancelled my edge 30, TWICE. but a few days ago i relied on my gut-feeling and finally bought keeping in mind the sensor size and micron size of the camera. it's truly a wow-phone. and by 'camera' i mean, rear camera. selfieholic is a mental illness.
the main camera lens holds excellent sharpness. unlike edge 20 which had a tremendous falling of sharpness beyond a small circle at the very centre. this lens also has proper depth of field. so all objects in the same focal-plane remain in almost-equal focus and sharpness.
the focusing-speed is instant, as advertized. you just twist your hand, open camera and point. bam! instantly-focused.
iso is so much lower as compared to a 108mp, as expected. the huge micron-size helps here a lot.
Can anyone confirm how is the after sales service of motorola ...becoz i have. Heard some bad things about after sales service and that is the only thing that is stoping me buy motorola
was waiting for pixel 6a, but this moto is just better and cheaper, commendable job done by motorola! They should also launch a phone around 20k with the same specs as g52 but with better processor
Waiting for g72, with a headphone jack and better battery! Would be a Perfect midranger!
Thanks a lot for reviewing this Cell Phone and it has cleared my all doughts.
Ranjit you should not bring S22 between this moto review. this is literally torture 😂😂
especially when people like me are confused between samsung and moto. 😂😂
Samsung has its own advantages over any other phones, irrespective of the As, Ms and Ss. Secure Folder, Edge Bar and Knox are pulling me from going to any other phones. I am on my A50s for the past 3 years. But they have to listen to consumers and improve their unreal pricing of the devices. I can't digest their Exynos somewhere, SnapDragon elsewhere policy too.
@@jomonvarghese4692 that is true. i am 12 year old customer of Samsung and it's very hard to leave them especially because it feels safe in hand honestly. and how can we forget call recording feature.
@@chakravartin369 yes, call recording. absolutely. But what makes me think umpteen times before eyeing Moto Edge is the imbalances in their recent phones. I would have definitely gone for S20FE 5g, had it's screen was as good as my A50S. And upon that battery drainage issues. A73 has unrealistic pricing. I don't want to spend more than 35K INR for a phone. Now I made up my mind to spend the money on Moto Edge 30 with a heavy heart. 💔
@@jomonvarghese4692 one of my friend just purchased s20 fe during fest discount a week agoat 32k, he is not facing any draining issue. many friends have this device it easily gives 6 hours SOT. and yes it is great device with some flagship features. a73 is unrealistic that's true. but i am confused between a33 5g , a52s and moto edge 30. may be i will go with a52s i guess
@@chakravartin369 oh man! You dragged me to the grey corner again. So as per your observation, S20FE is a better option?
Only reviewer who will do long videos.......but....but.....but.....his genuine review will make clarity on the devices who want to buy......tq Ranjit Sir for your honest reviews.....and I am big fan of Motorola since Moto E2 that I used.....now I want to buy this amazing device which I missed a lot from 5-6 years........😍
Thanks for the in-depth review of this device. I was really curious about the storage type, now I'm clear. Btw you could just mention which camera sensor is used in the main camera that would be more beneficial for us. Great job sir. ❤🙏
Best thing about Ranjit Sir is that he reviews the call quality of the device as well. No other channel does that and calls are one of the most important aspect of a phone. Thank you sir
I bought it for 26k from Flipkart. They actually charged 30 rupees extra, which is unbelievable...
Camera needs updates, battery could've been a bit better like edge 20, I do miss headphone jack and tempered glass is a must. Otherwise the phone is brilliant.
Edit: also I like how moto is now providing features with stock. For example 3 finger ss, screen rec, game mode etc
How long it takes to charge? Is it fast charging?
@@surajhk31 not more than 75 min, from 0 to 100. 33 watt charger
@@gaurav0883 bhai charging tikti kitni der tak
How much do battery last
@@gaurav0883 does it have any issues in touch ? does it have seperate photo galaxy? does it have parallel whatsapp?
I too worry on battery life, whether it last a single day?
Both WiFi & Hotspot can't be On together.. ek On Karo toh dusra Off ho jata hai . Latest phone me ye feature important hai.
Quick question: Does the phone have a linear (x/z axis) vibrating motor or something rotational like an ERM?
Your videos have always been helpful and amazing, although -
Haptics fanatic here so it's a deal breaker for me personally. I'd really appreciate it if you could include haptics as a segment in your reviews for future devices.
1st time experiencing x axis linear motor on Realme 9 Pro +. I tried using my Xiaomi Redmi 9, which is my device before 9 pro +, i felt the linear vibration is very annoying.
@@BullioMaguirio for real! I had the Moto G7 which surprisingly came with a z axis vibration motor at ≈16k price lol. Upgraded to Moto Edge 20 Fusion and I'm really disappointed with the haptics, phone feels unusable at times...badly tuned for a rotating motor.
@@nocturnal_sushi +1
Hey you seem to have a deep knowledge of phones. Can you please give me a brief about what could be the best phone in the range of 30-50k
@@nocturnal_sushi I never had experience with z axis anyway. In fact, I used linear motor budget phones before and this is my 1st experience using x axis.
Yup, I purchased this handset
And I am extremely satisfied with this product.
Though I am a Motorola fan.🙂
Excellent battery, excellent camera, excellent ummc,excellent lite weight,excellent os update, excellent ui no ads
Hi Ranjit, recently Samsung has launched three cordless vacuum cleaners. Looking forward for you to review one of them.
I'm not really sold on the new memory type. It might have a drawback also. But this was a very good review 👍
I have the device and I can tell you everything downloads and writes EXTREMELY fast. Was able to download and write 30+GB file in about an hour.
Your reviews are the most genuine type review that I really appreciate. No youtuber cover so much on depth
The Flipkart Seller is bullshit specially the one who's selling this phone it's pathetic the Rating is 3.7 so guys just be alert before purchasing this device from Flipkart i prefer go offline !! 🙂
did you got the mobile?
Bought the moto edge 30 a week ago. Loving it. Battery lasts a day if you're a moderate user
Bro how is the call quality , as i m a heavy call user and watsup , even pleass tell me about internet speed , are there any frequent call drops , kindly advice
He is Ashish Nehra in this technology world 😂
With that analogy, this phone must be a length ball
Even my Samsung A52s getting only 6-7hrs of SOT in 60hz with 4500mah battery. Moto much appriciated. 👏🏻
Really well thought out video. Loved how you managed to cover everything in depth for every kind of user. I like the longer summary section of the videos. Please include this in every review that you do.
Just two questions: The Edge 20 suffered from a weird wifi bug wherein the wifi reception dropped pretty quickly once you moved away from the router. Is that fixed?
Also is the stuttering issue in videos on OTT platforms fixed? That was a thing with the edge 20 and many moto devices.
After Android 12 update wifi issue certainly got fixed on Edge 20
Wow 3M subs, I've started watching ur channel since 2013 for phone reviews. Just visited now again and how much the channel has grown. Congrats!
I would accept an extra 30-40 grams for 500 mah of battery
then it wont serve the purpose... moto wanted to make a thin and light smartphone, both which they did excellently
I wouldn't. I despise phones that weigh like bricks.
Same. I am thin. My wrists start getting weaker during long playtime or shooting videos with heavier phones. I am sure the experience will be better especially when in mood of clicking some pictures! Yes, there maybe frequent charging but luckily it comes with USB A to C type cable that my powerbank can take. phew!
Different people different priorities! Ranjit is saying the battery life of this phone is good at the moment. What about 6 months later? If you change your phones every year then its okay!
I don't think the battery will degrade with frequent charging in 6 months not even in 2 years I feel except accidents. If used the same charger provided in the box without overcharging the phone, the battery can stay healthy for 3 years good. Also it provides longer screen on time compared to expensive phones like iPhone 12 mini and S22 :P
Hi, I lov ur analysis. Coming to night n low light photos, I kept it on *Pro* mode *AF* at minus 3200 n *-/+* at plus 3, I got nice pictures. By this we can avoid 'avoid auto night mode changing'
I was only worried after aquisition by lenova but it looks like doing good
My first Android phone was moto defy which was excellent ,a decade ago
I had the moto defy plus. One heck of a phone. Made me a custom rom nerd after using it.
They have been excellent phones all along...had a moto G1, then moved to g5 plus ( current one) and now looking at buying the edge 30. Dropped each a gazillion times but they keep on working fine.. reminds me of my old 3310
I am using Moto G82 since last one year.. it's an amazing experience...v good UI, no hanging, no issues at all...best camera.. certainly better than oppo, Vivo, xiaomi phones
Hi Ranjit Sir. I'm looking to buy two new phones one for my mom & other for my sister. Should i go for this or nord2,A52s,A53,m52,S20FE or any BBK phone (iqoo 9 se, realme GT2,neo3 or 10r). Is camera better than A52s,a53,m52,nord2 & gt2.
Gaming is not a priority but camera, battery & 3 years of lag free experience is what i am looking for.
definately not A53
@@ddc171 i also dont like a53 but the 4OS & 5 year security software support is what i love about it. since this phone is going to be used by my mom & sister, this is a peace of mind feature.
@@DolphinsAreBetterThanHumans the Exynos will most probably become trash after a year or two anyways, no way it's gonna work for 4 years
@@ddc171 old entry level & flagship exynos socs are garbage.1280 is similar performing to dimensity 900 & 920. it would not age horribly like the entry level exynos.
@@DolphinsAreBetterThanHumans it's not only about performance, Exynos has always been unreliable no matter how powerful it is. Exynos 2100 from last year was pretty powerful but people still faced reliability issues with it.
ranjit...i follow your channel quite seriously... disappointed that you confirmed along with other initial youtubers that edge 30 has good cameras...whereas all the actual users confirmed it's cameras are horrible...any suggestions
watching this in Moto Edge 30
How the phone bro? Pls reply
Yeah please reply.
@@sipraghosh7241 It is overall a good phone with excellent performance and stock android experience. You will get a typical day battery life with auto refresh rate and don't expect more than that. Rear camera is okay for me and the night shots are really good. I am not a selfie person so front camera is not an issue for me.
@@sreeharisreez thanks I don't need great camera but need a good ui experience
@@sipraghosh7241 Then you can surely go for Moto UI or ONE UI
I'm thinking of buying it in December 2022 and can anyone tell me some things:
1. How is the practical build quality as it doesn't have a glass back
2. The battery (can it go more than 1 day in normal and heavy usage).
3. How is the camera in practical use ( the front one importantly)
4. And is it STILL WORTH BUYING ?
waht did you buy?
Hi Ranjit, I currently have the OnePlus 7 right now which I purchased at only 33k with the snapdragon 855
Performance wise it's still nice, camera is nice but battery has become really weak
But looking at the phones now at 33k i feel that unless I invest 50k+, I'm getting a phone worse in processor and performance than even my 3 year old OnePlus 7, should I wait for things to get better or is there no option but to invest more than my 35k approx budget
Please do see this, and reply or include it in your Q&A🙏🙏
I also have one plus 7 pro , 3 years old but still gold just having battery dip (got it at price 44k)
I also think that now I can't go back to non premium smartphone, what i really look forward is for Samsung s23 ultra
I just realised how in interviews of CEOs by most Indian youtubers are like "hmne aapke liye laaye hain masaledaar sawal" but the reality is "sir aapne jo sawal diye the poochhne ko, wahi poochhenge, Don't worry".. but ranjit sir has always been different..❤️
Thank you Ranjit sir for this detailed an in-depth review. Was a bit sceptical about the battery life and screen on time with that 4020 mah battery, but your video cleared my every doubts. As I'm planning to purchase a smartphone under 50k for my dad, it's in my checklist. Can you please suggest some other good device under 50k segment, so that i can compare between 3-4 devices? My priority is camera, battery and smoothness in terms of day-to-day usage.
Vivo x80
i checked this today at croma and was so impressed by 1 thing..
the apps opening speed - wow its like blazing quick i have not seen any other phone like that.
i feels like the click effect happens even before u click it haha.
the only 1 problem with this is the battery. 4000 and 33w charging will not do for me.
im curious to know about the edge 30 pro i think that will be the perfect one for me
I placed an order yesterday 😊 I will get it tomorrow..
🥳
Tell me bro about Mobile when it arrives
storage part was really interesting
Really liked the comparison between phones, exactly what I look for when deciding which product to choose. Great review and thank you. 👍
POV: Every device, whatever, should come out with a con for sure by giving a chance to other oem in the same range, as no company wants to stop manufacturing by giving out one last ideal phone. Even if moto does it, the future of all phones including moto will struggle. Just adding, monopoly market/ideal device is not healthy almost all the time.
This is the best review i've seen of this phone! Thanks so much for the detailed rundown mate! You've gained an Aussie subscriber! xD
Hope they release the Fusion version of this phone.

Hi Ranjit, i am a big fan of your work because of your honesty in each work you do but today i have something else to say other than appreciation. I wanted to buy a phone for my sister which has a good camera, battery and performance. I saw your unboxing video of this moto edge 30 and then after 2 3 days i saw your this review video. Everywhere you have mentioned that this is an excellent phone for a price of 26-28k.
I have bought this phone for my sister just because you mentioned that it is a great deal to grab and it have everything and all those stuff you said. Well, this phone is *pathetic* . The camera is worst i have ever seen. My 3 year old redmi 10k mobile has better camera than this. Here no optimization is there in camera.
Performance is like nightmare. It hanged on the first day itself and the gestures doesnt work many times. You have to literally try for 5 6 times to make it work. The fingerprint sensor is bad.
The battery drains very very fast and i had to charge it twice a day.
I more disappointed with you than this phone. I have trusted you always and believed whatever you have said in past.
I think you should post another review with honest feedback.
Get your handset replaced something is wrong with your unit.... Camera as I said in this range the Realme 9 Pro+ is better, but the camera is way better than prior Moto phones but other things what you are mentioning I didn't have any issues as I have shown in the video.
Edge 30 and other motorola phone has started showing green pink lines on thousands of phones. Search on Google their forums and TH-cam. I purchased this phone after watching video so thought I'll come and update. If you wish you can make a video about this and maybe motorola will help us like OnePlus is helping affected users.
Once again, the best and honest review of the new flagship killer. Hope Moto won't follow the footsteps of OnePlus. Moto is slowly coming back in the race with premium devices at affordable price just like OnePlus did till OnePlus 7 series.
Follow footsteps?
Moto was always revolutionary.. Pioneer with many things.. Check what they did with making 5000mah battery a standard in most of the phones and sharing billion color display, OIS camera and all with G series...
Never used any other brand since 2012. 💪💪💪💪
Sir I have seen a lot of reviews of mobiles on your TH-cam channel...
But I have to say one thing..
I likedd this video so muchhh.
B'coz you just gone into depth of the smartphone..
I like this way of making video along with you iconic honest opinion..
Hats off..🎓
Plzz make all the smartphone review video like this
Before this phone came out I kind of considered going for the realme 9 pro plus but the only thing holding me back was the lack of NFC which is a very important feature for me.. So when this phone came out i was really happy.. I seriously love stock Android 12, it looks more beautiful than any of the other UIs and is also fluid.. And this also has NFC.. I don't understand why the manufacturers remove NFC in India. It's such a basic feature and should be there in all phones costing 20k+
Moto has nfc even in there 10k phones 😅
@@amarjeetdhankhar3299 exactly.. I don't get why other brands skip on it. It doesn't even cost much
This new style of review is quite awesome and subtle actually.... Good job ranjit .👍👍
