    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.

        Edge 30 Fusion here, quite happy. If only it had an audio jack…

        But that thing is really starting to disappear, and I’m not going to pay an highly expensive Xperia just for that.

          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.

      Yeah, it’s unfortunate sdcard is not a staple feature in higher midrange and flagship smartphones.

      User replaceable batteries may make a comeback due to EU regulation.

          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.
