Motorola Edge+ offers award-winning design, innovative Endless Edge display, powerful performance, and crazy-fast network speeds for a premium user experience.
Motorola has launched the Motorola Edge+ flagship smartphone in India, bringing one of the most powerful devices in the world to the country. The new Edge+ offers everything a power user looks for, from a beautiful and innovative display to crazy-fast performance and from a best-in-class camera to a long-lasting battery. These features, and so many more, make the Motorola Edge+ the flagship to buy in 2020, ahead of so many contenders that are vying for the title of the ultimate smartphone of the year. In fact, the fully loaded Galaxy S20 Ultra is one of the few handsets that can actually be called a competitor to the Edge+, but even then, the Motorola device is a more enticing prospect than the Samsung model. Here’s a look at all the reasons that the Motorola Edge+ is a better deal than even the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra.
Motorola Edge+ vs Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra
Display
Starting with the display, Motorola has truly outdone itself with its new Endless Edge display that features curves nearly 90-degrees on both sides of the huge 6.7-inch OLED panel. This makes the display experience more immersive than anything else offered in the market today and the Red Dot Award-winning design will turn heads wherever you go. But the Endless Edges are about so much more than just design – you can navigate the phone, access shortcuts, open recent apps, check notifications by simply swiping up/ down or tapping the curved edges. And if you are a gamer, you will simply love the two on-screen buttons that appear on the top edge when you play games! And despite all these functionalities, the Endless Edges are optimised to ignore accidental touches, so your user experience won’t be affected adversely. Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra, on the other hand, has a 2.5D curved design, which is considered flat for all intents and purposes and much less noticeable than what you get on the Motorola Edge+.
But the wonderful display experience doesn’t end at the striking Endless Edge design. The Motorola Edge+ display offers a few more features that set it apart from the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra. First is the 93 percent screen-to-body ratio of the Motorola model, which allows it to give the user more display real estate in a relatively smaller body; compared to this, the Samsung handset offers screen-to-body ratio of just less than 90 percent. Then there’s the aspect ratio – the Edge+ has a 21:9 aspect ratio compared to the 20:9 aspect ratio of the Galaxy S20 Ultra. This makes the former easier to hold for the users than the latter since it is not as wide, making one-hand usage a breeze.
And then there’s the refresh rate. Motorola has opted for a 90Hz display with full-HD+ (1,080 x 2,340 pixels) resolution, whereas the Samsung model gets a 120Hz panel with QHD+ (1,440 x 3,200 pixels) resolution. At first look, it may seem the Galaxy S20 Ultra has the edge here, but you will be surprised to know that the smartphone is limited to just 60Hz refresh rate at QHD+ resolution – if you want to use 120Hz refresh rate, then you need to bring the resolution down to full-HD+, the same as that of the Motorola handset! However, the Edge+ has an edge on this level playing field since its 90Hz OLED panel is able to deliver a smoother user experience and transitions without becoming the battery-guzzler that a 120Hz screen can be.
