Although Motorola has gone down in the row concerning brand popularity, we are often surprised by some of their charismatic releases. Motorola Edge 40 Neo is definitely one of those phones. There is a huge attention about this phone in the Indian market and the wave has reached the Bangladeshi buyers as well. The 12/256 GB model of this phone is currently available at around BDT 36,000 in the unofficial market. The 8/128 GB base variant may cost you about 33,500 Taka. There are some other very competitive phones in this price range such as the Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro, OnePlus Nord 3 5G, Infinix Zero 30 5G, Realme 11 Pro+ and Xiaomi Poco F5. These are more like the bosses in this price segment. So this Edge 40 Neo must have some powerful sides to win the customers. So, what is it offering?
First of all, it comes with a master-class design of its kind. We never saw this kind of design in the industry before. Motorola has collaborated with PANTONE, an American company in the color business since the 1950s. It’s very well-known and prestigious for color matching, digital prints and so on. The company is also the inventor of “Pantone Color Matching System”. The phone has three colors for the Indian variant: Black, Soothing Sea and Caneel Bay. There is also a so-called Peach Fuzz color, which is more of a pink variant. The phone at the back literally looks as if it is a professional print. There is a nice PANTONE logo on the bottom part as well. The black variant has acrylic material whereas the other colors have vegan/eco leather. The screen is curved with the third gen. Gorilla Glass protection. The body is IP68 waterproof, which means it can be submerged into 1.5 meter water for thirty minutes.
The screen is a higher quality P-OLED one with Full HD+ resolution and HDR10+ support. It’s top-notch in terms of content watching. Although some may offer you a higher resolution Quad HD+ screen, it’s still up to the mark at this cost.
The cameras aren’t the best and some other phones mentioned above will provide you with a better quality camera. But here we are getting 4K resolution for both the front and the rear camera. The back camera also has stabilization for 4K recording. It has better focus with an omni-directional phase detection autofocus technology. There is also a useful 13 MP ultrawide lens. So, these are some added positive sides. We think the cameras should be satisfactory even if they are not in the finest class.
The 68W charging system is pretty good. It takes about 50 minutes for a full charge. The first 50% charge takes only about 15 minutes, so, if you are in a rush, this Moto charger is a good friend. The 5000 mAh battery provides decent backup (between 1 to 1.5 days for average utilization). There is 5G support and a MediaTek Dimensity 7030 (6 nm) chipset. This is an all-rounder entry-level 5G chipset, slightly better than the basic 5G Dimensity 6020 or 6080 chipset. This is not for hardcore gamers. You might want to check out the Xiaomi Poco F5 if gaming is your top priority. But here we are talking about a very classy, one of a kind, tasteful choice that you can use for a few years. Android 13 is shipped and Motorola promised an upgrade till Android 15 as well as three years of security update. This is reasonable. We also got the Moto Connect feature which enables you to connect this device to a monitor and use it as a CPU to give you desktop experience. Something similar to the Samsung DeX feature, which is available only in their flagship devices. This is a prominent feature for digital nomads and geeks.
There is also a fast uMCP storage, an under display fingerprint sensor, dual stereo speakers and so on. You’ll also get Motorola ThinkShield for Mobile for added security. So, if you want something uncommon, stable, a bit on the formal artistic side with a lot of useful features for around three years of usage, we can definitely recommend you the Edge 40 Neo smartphone.
