Pros and Cons

Motorola Edge 50 Neo

Strengths

The Moto ed50 Neo is one of the few phones that's actually smaller than its predecessor, making it a great option for those who prefer a compact phone.
The phone has IP68 rating against water and dust, as well as military-grade protection against extreme temperatures and conditions.
The display has gotten smaller from 6.55 in to 6.4, but it's still an OLED with high resolution and supports HDR 10 plus video and 10 bit color.
The phone has a stereo speaker setup with very good loudness, making it great for audio
The under-display fingerprint reader is quick and responsive
The phone comes with Moto's new hello UI interface running on top of Android 14, providing a near stock Android experience with some extra motor roller features.
The phone will get longer software support than previous Moto phones, including 5 OS updates and five years of security patches.
The battery life is much better than last year's model, earning a respectable active use score of 13 hours and 29 minutes in our tests.

Weaknesses

The camera interface wasn't that snappy and the automatic photo processing can be inconsistent, ranging from natural to the occasional gritty and over-contrast.
The camera has some reliability issues at night with all cameras, particularly the telephoto camera which often takes out of focus photos.
The ultrawide camera's nighttime photos are okay but soft, with highlights that often get clipped.
Skin tones in selfies can come out a bit reddish depending on the amount of HDR the camera needs to apply
Low light footage taken with the main camera is only just okay in terms of sharpness and dynamic range
The phone's form factor may not appeal to everyone, especially those who prefer larger screens.
The phone does not have a telephoto camera zoom as good as other competitors, particularly at night
The ultrawide camera can take close-up macro shots but the nighttime Ultra-wide photos are okay and often soft
