I know there are also other "thinnest" phones. But are these "thinnest" phones durable?

Could be the only mid-ranger to use LPDDR 5 and UFS 3.1 combo...

See-How-Me and BBK need to step up their effort...

Moto Z was the thinnest phone then but with extremely poor battery life. Need to buy the battery mod to extend it. Another RM 299.

Moto Z - 2600 mah (of course it has poor battery)

Moto Edge 30 - 4020mah
S22 - 3600mah
S22 + - 4500mah

Motorola will have a better battery life compared to the latest Galaxy phones because of the chipset. 778+G is a battery efficient processor while the latest Samsung phones use SD 8 Gen1 which is prone to overheating and power hungry.

Phones are getting bigger and bigger and this is the perfect size for me. Not as big as the S22 Ultra/iPhone 13 Pro Max but not as small as the s22/iPhone 13 Pro.

missing a headphone jack n sd slot, but otherwise this looks like the best stock android phone since mi a series.

cameras wise samsung a series still superior. given that a52s is still selling for premium 1 later, the early bird price here is probably the next best thing.

Samsung will definitely pack all the software goodies but I have to disagree with the cameras. The Edge 30's cameras (50MP main camera OIS + 50MP ultrawide) are flagship grade which is basically the same as the Edge 30 Pro.

Take note that the main 50MP camera is omni directional PDAF or in Samsung's marketing term - Dual Pixel AF. I have tested both and would say Motorola's implementation is faster. Basically no shutter lag unlike the s22. Image quality is another story though but what I'm saying is, the cameras on the A52s are subpar vs the Edge 30.

The LeMoto main cams (OmniVision and not Sony IMX sensors) will be a challenging task on low-light conditions. The OIS helps a bit but cannot be compared to other post-processing algorithm from other vendors...

Below is their "PRO" variant of the Edge 30 (with Snap 8.1) but the quality is not as expected compared to the Snap778 series...so, hypothetically, the non-PRO Edge 30 could be worse...

Perhaps, their future OTAs will improve the post-processing algorithm...

Motorola keeps on updating their algorithm via the Moto Camera Tuner app and would not require software update as it is directly being updated to the Play Store. I don't trust synthetic camera tests as I am more inclined to real-world scenario.

Btw, I just received my Edge 30 today. I haven't opened it but will definitely test out the image quality.

Nice!!!

I hope you can try Digi's sim card, to see if the VoLTE works.

Buy for the 144Hz screen, bloat-free OS and lightweight body.... Not for the cam...but selfie is supposed to be above average hypothetically...the same goes for the modem and signal strength... should be as good as Who-R-We counterparts...

You can install Gcam on the Edge 30. If you have some knowledge with XML, you can tweak the color science and get the same quality as Google Pixel. I will install the Gcam version + config file from Edge 30 Pro and see if it works. The only downside I can see is the slower processing speed after taking a pic.
