This is Motorola Edge 40, the direct successor to last year’s Motorola Edge 30. Instead of the Snapdragon CPU used on last year’s model, Motorola made a switch to a Dimensity CPU from MediaTek on the Edge 40. The Chipset is the Dimensity 8020 5G SoC. It is backed by Mali-G77 MC9 GPU, 8GB RAM, and 128/256GB ROM.
The Moto Edge 40 retains two camera lenses on its rear. It includes a new 50-megapixel main sensor with a large F/1.4 aperture and a 13-megapixel UW sensor. It comes in a 6.55-inch FHD+ screen, has a 4400mAh battery with 68W fast charger, and is powered by Google Android 13 out of the box.
