Motorola Edge 30 Pro is official with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and 68W fast charging

Motorola just announced its latest global flagship dubbed the Moto Edge 30 Pro. It comes with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, two 50MP cameras on the back and a 60MP selfie shooter.

While mostly based on the Edge X30, the Edge 30 Pro has a different battery and slightly altered dimensions.

The screen of the Moto Edge 30 Pro is a 6.7” P-OLED with Full HD+ resolution. It comes with 144Hz refresh rate, touch sampling rate is 360Hz, but with a stylus, it gets down to “just” 240Hz. The 10-bit screen supports HDR+ and is adapted to the DCI-P3 color gamut.

RAM options are 8 and 12GB, storage goes in three tiers - 128/256/512GB.

The rear camera setup is identical to the Edge X30 - a 50MP main shooter comes with an f/1.8 aperture, while a second 50MP sensor sits behind the ultrawide F/2.2 lens. There is also a 2MP depth camera.

Motorola launched the Edge 30 Pro with the 60MP selfie camera mounted inside a punch hole. It brings some features as Auto Smile Capture that instantly takes a photo when all the faces are smiling, and of course there are plenty of AI algorithms to improve colors and composition.

The battery capacity is 4,800 mAh and it offers 68W fast charging, and the Moto Edge 30 Pro will ship with the appropriate charger in the retail box. The phone also supports 15W wireless charging and 5W reverse wireless power sharing.
