Powered by MediaTek's Dimensity 8020 SoC, the new Motorola Edge 40 blends an interesting mix of premium features, style, and affordability for just £529 (~$665). There's wireless charging, IP68 water, and dust resistance, as well as a pOLED display and 68W fast charging. While the specification mongers may scoff at the Edge 40 only having a pair of rear cameras, it could be said that Motorola chose to offer two good camera sensors instead of padding the specs table with 2MP sensors. All-in-all, the Edge 40 could be the no-nonsense mid-range phone we've been waiting for from Motorola.
