CN ROM.. which is 100x better than the Global ROM.

Why?

1. I can officially enable Google Play Services via Settings app. It's NOT a hack or workaround unlike other brands.
2. Once enabled, just install Google Play and install all apps directly from Google Play Store. NO issue with banking apps or Google apps.
3. Better UI than Global ROM. It has more features than the Global ROM. (Ex. Option to change notification tray like iOS)
4. Built-in Moto Device Shield app.
What is Device Shield app? You can
- clone app
- lock app with password
- easily enable/disable apps running in background
- etc
5. MONTHLY software updates. Yes, Motorola CN ROM is the highest priority vs Global ROM. You can easily check it from the official Motorola weibo account for software update status.

6. *I will just add more here*

Why you should NEVER convert to Global ROM if your phone has stock CN ROM?

One simple answer - you can NEVER UNROOT and NEVER update your software over the air. It will cause error and will not push through and potentially brick your phone.

Also, once you unlocked the bootloader of ANY Moto phone, there will a warning message every time you restart your phone. It will ALWAYS appear before the "hello moto" splash screen.

Of course don't buy a Moto China phone if you use any system language other than English or Chinese because these are the only 2 available languages on the phone.

I suggest you to watch the FAQ from this tech reviewer smile.gif
Agreed with all his answers except for the haptic feedback. I like the new haptics when typing which does not *buzz* but feels more like a natural press (imagine Macbook's trackpad when you press it).

VoLTE works using Digi.
Btw, it's not about CN or Global ROM, it's the phone itself. They both have the same model number (XT2241-X). X stands for the region.

XT2241-1 - CN ROM
XT2241-2 -potentially India and so on..

If CN ROM supports VoLTE, Global ROM will surely have the same.

If like that then not bad, much better than the dead edge 30 pro. See whether it will launch in Malaysia or not and then the pricing point.

Better the global rom also got the volte when cn rom have it. If not then really speechless. For me I won't even consider non Malaysia set, kind of worried after buy got issues then will be very troublesome.

This is the nth time I bought a non-Malaysia set.
Last time I had issue with my Pixel 5, the online retailer (T&L Telecom) just checked the phone if there is no damage (scratches, dents, etc). Once considered good, they took the phone and replaced with a new one (sealed) after a week. T&L staff told me they will just return the phone to the main source anyway and will also get the refund. lol


Not really bothered as long the online seller is reputable. I even heard horrible stories from Samsung flip owners who bought MY set and they can't even get the screen protector replaced (as part of the 1 time replacement warranty) due to technicalities in the T&C. Lol

Ya but the problem is x30 pro that are selling by online retailer now all are not reputable. My understanding of reputable are those that are operating for long like gstore, direct d, thunder match etc etc but none of them are bother with China x30 pro.

Even if they bring in probably I will think twice also because it's just my preferences to buy global set from official seller. For me if this device didn't bring in officially to Malaysia then I will just forget it.

Those retailers that you've mentioned are only selling official MY Sets. They have a different market. But fun fact, DirectD once sold import devices as well (bought the Galaxy S3 from them last time) but they stopped selling as requested by Samsung Malaysia.

They won't bother selling import devices as this is not their business model.

Online retailers like monmar01, T&L Telecom, Fast Technology are just some reputable sellers for import devices. They have real office. I've been to T&L Telecom office and surprised how huge the office is and employees are professional.

There are only 2 reasons people buy from online sellers and import devices:

1. Cheaper than official MY Set
2. Device not available in MY

Yeah, it's not for everyone but those who have bought are happy to have saved several bucks without any issue.

Ahhh yes yes. Real Samsung owners know the difference between Exynos and SD.


Good thing though Samsung Malaysia is now sticking with Snapdragon smile.gif

...
Actually there is one more for iPhone users.
4. Able to buy physical DUAL SIM for iPhones.

T&L Telecom were selling iPhone 12 devices (HK set) which has physical dual sim.
I actually bought from them (my very first iPhone in my entire life) but sold it after 6 months. Really can't stand the restrictions in iOS. A simple thing like having different notification ringtone for different apps is not even possible. LOL

Hnnghh this is just plain tempting. Not that I have issues with my 30 Pro at the moment, and the Ultra has smaller batt (and slightly smaller.. screen?) and I very much like the side mount FP.

But while I know that the 200mp camera is gimmicky marketing, it's just.. tempting. Also the telephoto lens..

And getting good case for this would also be a nightmare I think..

Thanks for sharing the result.

Next will wait and see if this model supports the Malaysia 5G or not.

Being deferred my decision to change my Huawei Mate 10 from Moto Edge 30 pro, non-pro, and now the Ultra smile.gif

Just curious, are you buying your unit from T&L? I search and this is not available from their Shopee/Lazada page. Not sure if it is sold out.

Screen is the same size as the Edge 30 Pro. It looks smaller because of the curved sides.

The built-in fps is fast so no issue with it.
SOT is similar to the Edge 30 Pro since SD 8+ Gen1 is more battery efficient.

Just like any other phone (even the latest iPhones), this is used mainly for pixel binning - to capture more like and reduce noise.
Motorola is using 16-in-1 pixel binning while the iPhone 14 Pro Max's 48MP camera can only bin 4-in-1 pixel.

200MP ultra resolution should only be used in a very good lightning condition (outdoors).

Telephoto lens is EXCELLENT. Motorola put f1.6 aperture which has the highest aperture on any portrait lens (even beats the latest iPhone's telephoto f2.2 aperture).

Yea I suppose the difference I stated are very minimal, if noticable at all.

But hnnngg you're not helping me here, lol. I have no more budget for phones this year sweat.gif But i wonder how much it'll be when sold here offically.. probably just north of 3k.

Note: this is the first I bought OUTSIDE of Shopee and Lazada.
Of course as a first time buyer, you will have a lot of doubts.

Seeing a LOT of people have already bought from them (and devices which are even more expensive than the Edge 30 Ultra), I gave it a go.

Purchase date: 17 Sept (transferred money to Fast Tech).
Parcel ready for pick up from Fast Tech office/site: 22 Sept

CN ROM

- English
- Chinese

That's it. No other language.

Able to uninstall ALL bloatware apps (Daoyin, weibo, etc..).

But Moto CN ROM has 3 system apps that can't be uninstalled (you can disable though):
- Built in browser
- Application Centre (Lenovo app store)
- LeCloud (Lenovo cloud)


Go bite the bullet. Once you buy from Fast Tech, you will realize that Shopee and Lazada gadgets are still overpriced 😆

Latest price around ~2,850 for 512gb
~2,700 for 256gb
...only when you buy direct bank transfer to Fast Tech.

For peace of mind, you can also buy from Fast Tech Shopee store.

Edge 30 Ultra/X30 Pro - 3 yrs OS (upto Android 15) and 4 yrs security updates

Edge 30 Fusion (or any midrange Moto) - 2 yrs OS updates and 3 yrs security.

By year 2025, I'm pretty sure most people have already upgraded to another device or planning to upgrade.

After a week of using, I can say Motorola did an excellent job with the cameras especially the 200MP main sensor. Managed to take good images in low/dim lighting thanks to the auto night mode. Images look similar to S22 Ultra.

Portrait cam however looks like they were taken from an iPhone with skin tone color a bit orange-red especially on the face to make you look appealing. Also the reason why my iPhone friends are impressed with the shots.

This is nice to hear, I read about the 200MP is just mostly.. for gimmicks. But then after several updates, I can say that even my 30 Pro produces nice shots under good lighting, and is generally pleasing to look at, even though I am.. rather bad at photography.

For sure looks better than my wife's Nord pictures, though..

I suppose I'll.. wait till they announce local units, or how Pixel 7 turns out with the volte thing.

Kinda weird because Moto Malaysia was first when they released the Edge 30 Pro and Edge 30 while India and Europe markets were delayed.

This time around the Edge 30 Ultra is already available in other markets but we are still waiting for an update from Moto Malaysia.. hmmm..

My best guess is the Edge 30 and Edge 30 Pro are doing well so no need to rush.

I don't think edge 30 pro is doing well, for edge 30 maybe yes. Probably because of that they are focus on mid range product here and yet to bring in the edge 30 ultra.

Another possibly reason is weakening of myr so they think even bring in with the price tag Malaysia consumer won't even bother.

Anyway, whatever reason it's the device is not officially available in malaysia.

True if that's the pricing then definitely cannot sell. They have to sell it below 3k otherwise hardly can sell.

The 200 mp hardly a selling point to justify for above 3k especially when there are a lot of review already out showing it's more to gimmick.

Image quality wise still not able to beat those iPhone, samsung with better software image processing.

You can even buy an ori MY set of Xiaomi 12 Pro with the same price with better build quality and flagship cameras. 😂

Yes, bye bye Motorola if you want an overpiced midrange device hiding in a flagship processor. ✌️

Maybe edge 30 ultra cost more to made because of below advantages
Metal+glass build
Proper ultrawide+telephoto
Bloat free ui (miui ads somehow subsidised the price in xiaomi case)
Curved screen
USB3.1 ready for functions (xiaomi always usb2.0 for every phones)
So i afraid edge 30ultra may be cost above 3k++ if to be bring in officiallly

Lenovo Malaysia knows we are price conscious. Also, the latest Moto phones sold here are cheaper compared to when you buy from other parts of the world (ex UK). They could also sell it the same price at the 12T Pro (RM2999 for 12gb RAM/256gb storage variant).

The biggest advantage of Xiaomi is marketing. Lenovo does not want to spend more else, cost will go up as well.

Well the 30 Pro official price is what 2.6k? Its quite a big step up from the Edge 30. I'd say the 30 Ultra would be around.. 3.2k for 12/256..?

Keep in mind:

Motorola Edge 30 Pro was launched in UK for £800 (RM4,200)
Motorola Edge 30 Ultra was recently launched in UK for £750


Motorola Edge 30 Pro was launched in MY for RM2,699

I'm not saying the Edge 30 Ultra will be cheaper but I'm pretty sure Lenovo will keep the price similar to the Chinese variant (X30 Pro).

Errr it got updated during the Sept 2022 software patch.
I don't have any issue whatsoever with the current camera.

Just one gripe is with the portrait lens having no OIS. Under lowlight, it is challenging to get a decent shot using one hand.

To be fair, Motorola camera shutter speed is faster than the latest Galaxy S22 series with no shutter lag at all.

Yep. This is already fixed.
The issue is not about consistency but the phone having difficulty focusing with subjects closer to the camera. This is a hardware limitation due to larger sensor.

The fix is the the lens will focus on the minimum focusing distance.


This is also the reason that Apple implemented a nifty feature while taking videos using the main camera --- it will automatically switch to using the ultrawide/macro lens when focusing on closer subjects.

The drawback to this is there is a noticeable change in field of view (you will see it in the video itself that suddenly the camera has "moved") while switching from main to ultrawide. Not sure if you get the idea but that's about it.


Take note that CN ROM has faster and more updated software than the global version. This has always been the case for all Moto devices.

As it is using CN ROM, there is no way to use Google instead of Toutia.
Just put Google widget on your homescreen. Lol.

I don't disable any app (even the Lenovo apps). I just "restrict" them so they won't run in the background.

So you already bought Moto X30 Pro? From which seller?

1. Turn on Google play services from settings
2. Open Lenovo browser
3. Search Google play and install apk

Or

1. Using laptop download apk file
2. Copy apk file to your phone
Guys, it's just an apk file. How you install apk files is how you install Google Play Store or any other apps

This I don't understand, since it's an APK, if didn't turn on Google play services in the setting, cannot download and install?

Turning on Google Play Services from Settings --

- you are allowing Google to sync Google Apps to your phone (example Google Contacts, Gmail, Google Drive etc).

Why do you need to sync those to your phone? Very simple. So you can access them to your 3rd party apps.

You still don't get it? Again, very simple.

One REAL WORLD SCENARIO: If you are using Maybank, CIMB DUITNOW, you need to get the number from your contacts right? If your contacts are saved to GOOGLE CONTACTS, then you will NOT be able to access them directly from CIMB DUITNOW app because you did NOT allow Google Play Services on your phone.

QUOTE(ijuanp03 @ Sep 28 2022, 01:05 AM)
CN ROM.. which is 100x better than the Global ROM.

Why?

1. I can officially enable Google Play Services via Settings app. It's NOT a hack or workaround unlike other brands.
2. Once enabled, just install Google Play and install all apps directly from Google Play Store. NO issue with banking apps or Google apps.
3. Better UI than Global ROM. It has more features than the Global ROM. (Ex. Option to change notification tray like iOS)
4. Built-in Moto Device Shield app.
What is Device Shield app? You can
- clone app
- lock app with password
- easily enable/disable apps running in background
- etc
5. MONTHLY software updates. Yes, Motorola CN ROM is the highest priority vs Global ROM. You can easily check it from the official Motorola weibo account for software update status.

6. *I will just add more here*

Why you should NEVER convert to Global ROM if your phone has stock CN ROM?

One simple answer - you can NEVER UNROOT and NEVER update your software over the air. It will cause error and will not push through and potentially brick your phone.

Also, once you unlocked the bootloader of ANY Moto phone, there will a warning message every time you restart your phone. It will ALWAYS appear before the "hello moto" splash screen.

Of course don't buy a Moto China phone if you use any system language other than English or Chinese because these are the only 2 available languages on the phone.

NOPE. No delay even 1%. Because Motorola is smarter than any brand using CN ROM. They know what they are doing wink.gif

How sure am I? 100% sure. Motorola built their own app to manage background processing. This is a known issue on ALL China ROMs especially with Huawei, Xiaomi etc.. this is not an issue with Moto Global ROMs because the full GMS framework is available


Follow the guide below

Step 1:
Open Moto Device Shield app

The xda gave the instructions below leh.

Go to Settings > System > Google Play Services
2. Turn on Google Play Services
3. Install latest Google Play Store from https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-store/
4. Install other Google Apps
5. To install Google Chrome, you MUST update "Android System Webview" first
6. Install your other apps.
*Disable first the stock Moto dialer, contacts, Lenovo Appcenter and LeCloud (as these apps will mess up your Google contacts).
7. Install Google sync contacts app attached to sync contacts.
8. Default Motorola Contactt app will sync your Google contacts (no need to install Google Contacts)
9. Default Motorola Calendar app will sync your Google calendar (no need to install Google Calendar)

I am the author of this guide in XDA.
I will amend as these are the old steps when Moto stock dialer was messing up with my phone contacts (removing zeroes in front and removing the plus + symbol)

And yes, no need to diable any app. Just install all Google apps especially Google contacts sync apk.

Also, if you want calendar to sync with Moto calendar, install Google calendar, let it sync first then UNINSTALL Google Calendar. After doing this, your calendar info will be sycned to Moto calendar.

For old people like me, follow these SIMPLE steps:

1. Go to Settings > System > Google Play Services
2. Turn ON Google Play Services
3. Go to Settings > Location
4. Turn ON Location
5. Install Google Play Store apk (apkmirror is a reputable website)
6. Install Google Contacts Sync apk (from apkmirror)
7. Open Google Play Store and sign in
8. Install your apps from Google Play Store

DONE.
Very simple and easy to follow

1. Because CN ROM only has 2 languages - English and Chinese
2. Because other people think CN ROM cannot use Google so they decide to flash Global ROM
3. Because Fast Tech may not be aware that flashing to Global ROM will have issues with software update and can never go back to stock/original state. Bootloader will be unlocked forever and will have a warning message everytime you restart your phone.. this is forever. No turning back once you convert.

Fastech has been selling china phones for a long time. That's why buyers cannot simply buy Moto china phone without knowledge. If even seller don't know about this, those who blindly buy Moto phones will really regret this decision.
Will Google translation work properly for this phone? Just the main phone OS cannot download languages right? App should be able to download languages

Nobody can blame Fasttech because they are not here to track the policies of different Android brands. The bootloader policy of Motorola will be different from that of Xiaomi or any other brand.

They offer converting to Global ROM as an "add-on". Buyers are not forced and should be responsible enough to do their research.

What do you mean by Google translation? Are you referring to Google Translate app or you mean whether the phone's language has been translated to English properly.

For one, don't be confused on "system language" and "app language".


System language is the universal language used by the phone - either English OR Chinese. You CANNOT download another system language. What is system? The language you see in Settings app and ALL system apps.

App language - this is the language used by a certain app. Example - Mysejahtera. That app SHOULD come up with its own set of app languages. Your phone will NOT translate the language for you. This is based on what language is available for the app which is developed by the app owner.

They offer addon without any further info means it's customer risk. Luckily I know how to read Lowyat. Those complicated android site I don't read and won't know this knowledge. And fastech famous don't like people to ask questions. Q&A all written there but their Q&A don't cover this info.
Google translate has anything got to do with phone language? It's the app I am talking about. Let's say convert English to Thai. The app have to download Thai language. Will moto allow this?

Again, we cannot assume Fastech is aware about this. They simply offer things "offered" by their counterpart in China.

The fact that you allow your phone to be converted from one ROM to another ROM means the customer knows the basic principle of rooting/bootloader. It's like you buying a brand new car - once you allow a 3rd party car shop to modify your electrical system means you know that the warranty will be voided. If a customer doesn't know this then they should not own a car in the first place.

"Google translate has anything got to do with phone language? It's the app I am talking about. Let's say convert English to Thai. The app have to download Thai language. Will moto allow this?"

- sorry I really don't get your question. You're talking about the app. I already gave you an example - Mysejahtera. If your phone's system language is JAPANESE, do you expect Mysejahtera to show all the wording in Japanese language? Or you expect the phone to translate Mysejahtera into Japanese? Or you expect the app to automatically download Japanese language?

The answer to all those is NO. That is not how an Android or iOS works. If you think your phone should do that, then you should look elsewhere.

I did convert Redmi china ROM to global rom before. works well. but moto side restriction is unexpected. those that buy Moto phone before do homework will be too late

Very simple saja. Can help open your Google translate app and try translate English to Thai. But I suspect the translate app should work.

And why would I do that (referring to do it myself at home by following instructions) You already mentioned the disadvantages of converting the ROM. In fact I don't encourage anyone to do this ( converting the ROM) and I will explain to them (anyone that is doing this) clearly the disadvantages? Btw this means even security updates also the phone cannot get or just the android updates?

You are asking me if they convert here or in China. I don't know the answer so I told you to ask them directly (I will not do that for you)
And now you're telling me why would you do that?

But who told you to explain to Fastech the disadvantages? You are the one complaining about Fast Tech's service. Nobody is complaining except you.

something interesting Ive observed..
since this is my 1st 5G phone

1. yoodo simcard have 5G option enabled. VoLTE works without issue. Wifi calling option also available (unable to test).

2. digi simcard (next35 prepaid) doesn't have 5G option at all. VoLTE works without issue despite no official listing from Digi.

ps HD icon is VoLTE indicator

I know how excellent Pixel phones are when it comes to cameras but Moto actions/gesture/display is a necessity to me now.

Aside from Moto actions, there are so many things Moto can do that Pixel can't (without the need to install third party apps).

Like Moto Gametime app (you can automatically change frame rate per app), Moto Device Shield (you can auto start apps, app locker, etc) etc.

Also, the Edge 30 Ultra cameras are above average. You can take great pictures in good and low light conditions.


Pixel 7 256gb is almost RM4,000.
Moto Edge 30 Ultra 512gb - RM2663

The obvious difference in price is what makes the Moto phone more appealing and worth it wink.gif

Arguably I don't even need 512gb, so its better in terms of cost, yea..

I do like how the Pixel takes better pictures in low light, and moving objects, though. I do take a lot of pics of my growing sons these days.. and you know kids.. don't stay still biggrin.gif I do admit, that in good lighting conditions, even my 30 Pro produces fantastic shots (to my standard, at least)

And being another Moto 30 variant, at least my wife won't notice it outright? Compared to Pixel 7 camera bars? Lol.

Exactly. Actually all flagship phones have decent cameras. Most people are just being fanboys nowadays and will die defending their favorite brand.

512gb is too much but hey, who doesn't want more storage at a cheaper price?

I just feel like Motorola is being generous and it's sad if people will miss this opportunity.

This feature is not a system process for ALL Android phones running CN ROM, not just Motorola.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/hey-goog...cn-rom.4285343/

If you're a Chinese speaker, you can enable "Hello Moto" though 😂

After updating, I noticed that all 3 lenses (main, ultrawide and portrait) now have consistent color especially skin tones.

Previously, the image quality from portrait lens is similar to the latest iPhones wherein there is a beauty filter on the face (making your face brighter and reddish).

But now photos are natural looking like the main camera.

Hi, I am interested in this, considering switching from Poco F3 (give that to my dad to swap out his Redmi Note 7).
I have 1 question hopefully not already answered, and hope it can put at first post as FAQ.
What about the 5G support for every service provider in Malaysia? GSMArena didn't put up much info on the 5G bands.

Thank you very much for your time.

I think this question not much people can answering u as 5g currently only offered by unifi mobile, ytl and umobile as per my understanding.

As for x30 pro global variant, edge 30 ultra it is not officially available in Malaysia, the only way to get it is buy import set from china where it is not 5g certified.

Even if it does not support 5g in future by your telco, nothing much can be done. Buy it at your own risk, the pros and cons are as follow:

Pros:
good hardware spec at affordable price
Near stock Android

Cons:
No official Malaysia set, touchwood anything happen u have to send back to seller and wait for them to post to China and return (probably will take two to four weeks for whole process). The whole experience is very dependant on seller

5g uncertainty. Is not in the 5g list as it is not officially available in Malaysia. It's lucky if it's supported by your carrier

A lot of issues shared by international lenovo Motorola forum such as poor post photo processing, painting peel off at the camera, auto focus issue, dust particle in the telephoto lens area, call volume issue etc etc as what I can recall but this is for the global variant edge 30 ultra.

X30 pro china forum reported poor post photo processing problem but someone above shared about an update so not sure whether the issues still persist or not.

Lastly lenovo Motorola launch new device very fast and now got info leak out for edge 40 already as per gsmarena. Some user in global and China forum do feedback lenovo not really handle persisting issues and keep on launching new device regardless.

I am interested to get 1 initially but unfortunately it's not officially available in Malaysia and a lot of bad user feedback, that's y I don't plan to get 1 myself. U can go ahead if those cons doesn't really matter to u. In this sub threat itself I think less than 10 ppl owning the device.

Wow, thank you for the insight, yeah, import set usually has their cons like the ISP support and stuff like that, and no official warranty means it have to travel far and beyond for any warranty claims. Guess have to wait and see again

Ya can wait and see. I don't think they gonna bring edge 30 ultra to Malaysia. If you are not rushing and wanna use Motorola only might as well wait for edge 40, I think it is gonna launch next quarter but whether it will be available in Malaysia is different story.

If rushing closes alternative is oneplus 10t and xiaomi 12t pro but both are plastic frame. Hardware wise edge 30 ultra got metal frame and better camera spec. Post photo processing wise, I think oneplus and xiaomi better. 12t pro is cheaper, I think now can get below 2.5 for 8gb 256 variant and 2 years warranty but have to bear with miui.

Another close alternative is mate 50. Spec, software and post photo processing was excellent but it don't have 5g and gms due to the ban. If it's not something bothering u, mate 50 is much better option. I will get it if not because of Google.

Someone already tried 5G using x30 Pro. It IS supported.
Another thing to point out is-

Telco list of 5G supported phones means these are the phones purchased by the Telcos and physically put sim card and tested 5G signal and connectivity

If the phone is not in the list, it does NOT mean you will not get 5G signal. Lol
I hope everyone is clear with that.

And by the way, Malaysian users who bought import set of Moto x30 Pro are very very much satisfied with no complaints. VoLTE even works well smile.gif

Of course you will see so many trolls in the internet discouraging you from buying this phone but it's up to you to decide. But for me, I am VERY happy and SATISFIED because it's bang for the buck.

Moto X30 Pro 512gb - RM2663 brand new sealed set wink.gif

Huawei will never be on my list because I need my Gmail, Google Contacts, Drive etc to get sycned with my phone. No need to use some sketchy 3rd party app with bloatware ads for you to just be able to use Google Chrome. Lol

And Huawei is famous for putting so much ads in the lockscreen and notification tray. Imagine buying a RM4,000 phone with built in ads which you can never remove. 😆

Ya it's good that you are happy and satisfied with your purchase. Seem like it's only you through, other than you I never see anyone claiming they are using this device. Lol too bad you are not associated with Motorola, they should hire u.

The 2.66k value seem not bad through for the spec. But the risk is there, it's true that not in the list doesn't mean not supported. It's true that someone saying 5g is supported for this model.

The problem is if touch wood after update or whatsoever suddenly 5g not supported, who u plan to complaint to? China? Motorola Malaysia? Telco? They won't even layan u, the only response you will be getting is sorry this device is from China and we are not able to anything. That's why people rather get official available device.

Too bad Motorola didn't bring it in to Malaysia, otherwise I will consider to get 1. Huawei wise I agree it don't have Google or else it will be an excellent device, lockscreen wise with a lot of ads in lock screen and notification tray is not true based on my personal experience of owning huawei mate 10 pro for so many years. it still smooth and without any problem till today.

The 2.66k value seem not bad through for the spec. But the risk is there, it's true that not in the list doesn't mean not supported. It's true that someone saying 5g is supported for this model.

The problem is if touch wood after update or whatsoever suddenly 5g not supported, who u plan to complaint to? China? Motorola Malaysia? Telco? They won't even layan u, the only response you will be getting is sorry this device is from China and we are not able to anything. That's why people rather get official available device.

Too bad Motorola didn't bring it in to Malaysia, otherwise I will consider to get 1. Huawei wise I agree it don't have Google or else it will be an excellent device, lockscreen wise with a lot of ads in lock screen and notification tray is not true based on my personal experience of owning huawei mate 10 pro for so many years. it still smooth and without any problem till today.

You should back read then smile.gif It's not only me who is using this device in Malaysia.
Fast Tech has also sold a few good quantity of this device. You can have a look at their FB page (https://www.facebook.com/fastech.my/)

"The problem is if touch wood after update or whatsoever suddenly 5g not supported, who u plan to complaint to? China? Motorola Malaysia? Telco?" --- I've never complained about VoLTE not working on my old Edge 30 Pro (CN ROM) and my current X30 Pro has VoLTE.

I know you may not be that techie but again, 5G is just a signal.. just like 2G, 3G and 4G. A good example is someone travelling from the US going to Malaysia using a Google Pixel phone. Once he arrives, tada... there is 4G signal! No need to go to any telco just to beg for a 4G signal.. because... it's just a frequency. If your phone can receive the appropriate frequency bands then you are good to go.


Here -- there are several reddit posts using the latest Mate 50 Pro experiencing ads in the built-in Gallery app and pull down to search feature

Anyhow to be honest, I miss Huawei. My last Huawei phone was the P20 with excellent cameras in its time. They started the whole night mode thing but it was only Google who made it popular. Things have changed since they got banned from using GMS. Too bad.

Aa you mentioned fasttech had sold few good quantity. It is few..... not a lot and from the few you mentioned, only I saw you saying u are using it on this sub thread. That's what I am saying, the user base is way too low. It's kind of normal for unofficial device as people don't want the hassle in case of anything happen and better support for official available device.

Yes 5g is just a signal but do nobody know at least for now what approach Malaysia will be taking especially when they come out with the list of device that will support 5g for each telco. We won't know for sure whether they will go for whitelist approach or not as currently only three telco ytl, unifi and umobile are offering 5g. Volte and vowifi by right is should be supported by all device that allow such a feature yet it is not available for all device. It's the same thing, no people can say for sure whether it will work without any issues or not for now especially for imported device.

The screenshot you are attached is mislead as well. The first image I suppose user turn on something like suggestive ads or whatsoever and second seem like they use native app to play gallery photo and it's showing ads, for this then I have no ideas as I rarely play video in gallery and even if I did I never see any advertisement. I am saying from the experience of use mate 10 pro.

I know you love Motorola especially how active you are in all Motorola thread but when comment don't be biased. Like it or not the risk is there for imported device and up to user to decide whether can accept the risk or not.

Of course the user base is low as this is an import set. You are always saying it's a "hassle" but Fast Tech will take care of any warranty claim - not the customer. Return the device to Fast Tech's office in Subang and they will send it back to supplier and will give you a brand new device. What is hassle with that? Do you expect customers to fly to China or send the device directly to Moto China?

VoLTE is not a signal -- it's a feature. It's not related to frequency bands at all. A good analogy to understand this is Voicemail. Telcos can enable/disable voicemail feature depending on how they configure their services.

Your Mate 10 Pro (and my old P20) definitely do not have ads as they were during their "Google services" days. Again, a lot have changed since they got banned from using GMS. For now - they need a way to earn money and one of them is brining bloatware and ads to their devices. This maybe acceptable for lowend devices but definitely not for a flagship phone like Mate 50 Pro.

I suggest you visit any Huawei store and see for yourself. I already visited once and that is the very first thing I noticed -- Ads on their universal search bar. Ads will also show up the left page of their homescreen.

Lastly, I never claimed there is no risk in importing a device. But telling people not to buy import set because they will get in trouble with warranty whatsoever is plain dishonesty. Retailers like Fast Tech, T&L Telcom and Monmar are working hard to make a living. This is their bread and butter. All their devices are under warranty and people who buy import devices know this from day 1.

Please read back my previous comment. The hassle I mean here is the time taken for seller to send it back to china and wait for the return which might take 2 to 4 weeks. I never mentioned there are no warranty for imported set, I am saying the support is not as good as officially available device.

I don't understand your logic behind the plain dishonesty, it's you who try to convince people to buy and gaslight the possible risk. It's undeniable fact that the whole experience on warranty claim is depending on seller for the import set and it might take longer as seller have to post back China, wait for agent to send to service centre and return.

I don't understand your logic of blindly supporting anything related to Motorola as seem from all Motorola thread as seem through your previous post when you claim you are not related to Motorola. Look back at your previous post, all bias to moto......

5g yes indeed it's signal but till now even you and me also cannot say for sure on 5g support especially two popular telco yellow & green is not offering 5g yet. But what we can see for now is almost all telco come out with their own list of 5g supported device and all we can do is speculate on the support.

The ads wise I have no comment as I stopped seeing huawei device in store after the Google ban. I personally don't see the problem you can claim in my mate 10 pro but it might be really happening to those newer device where I don't have any data.

Pricing wise I agree it's good price for the hardware but the support indeed is not there and waiting time is longer for warranty claim depending on seller speed. One more thing is office in subang and no issue for klang valley people. For those outstation it will be more problematic.........

Whoa there. It's not an official device sold here, so its pretty much the same with other, unofficial sets here.. even being a good phone with near stock Android, and good specs, that is.

But then people buy recond cars all the time (which is far more exp and needs maintenance), so, yea.

Ya. But recond car is different story, the saving value from recond vs phone is so much different. That's y people rather pay slightly more for official phone where normally it's just few hundred different for the sake of convenience. If it's not official available then is up to user to device whether the device is worth or not for the potential risk.

Well, that is also true - the 30 Ultra not being official release here (yet), does dampen my interest in it, somewhat. And like I mentioned before, my 30 Pro takes good pictures, but only still objects, and in good lighting. And having headache to find a good case for this also would be an issue, lol.

30 pro actually quite good, just I don't like the 8 gen 1 chip by Samsung as well as no volte support for yellow. If not I already buy it.

30 ultra actually hit all the tick for me, just the not officially available and the potential hassle stop me from considering it. As well as other problem reported by user on camera, dust, auto focus problem etc etc.

To be honest, I will give it a chance if it's officially available in Malaysia. Not officially available then is a straight no for me, import set is norm to be cheaper but worth the risk or not is depend on user.

For me if I spend money on flagship device, I expect it to be well supported and hassle free.

But if its officially available here, then most probably it will be 3k++, instead of 2.5k something? from current importers. I do remember my ol G5S Plus with dust in lens problem.. sigh.

Around 3k and below i still can accept but above then probably not. The dust in lens problem is reported in edge 30 ultra as well but in telephoto lens.

Seem like they never resolve any preexisting as someone mentioned and keep on launching new device. I plan to buy a new device for tax deduction purpose this year.

So far the best option I have seem is mate 50 selling at 3699 and come with gt2 pro that cost around 800 currently. Hardware & emui all no issues and excel than edge 30 ultra in photo quality & water resistance plus I have matepad pro. Too bad it's without gms or else I will get it. It's a shame that it even don't have 5g

Without gms cannot even use app like McDonald even in app like gspace and Microsoft team which is essential for me. Probably I will settle with mi 12t pro instead, just have to compromise for miui and plastic frame but come with lower price and 2 years warranty.

To be honest not much of option available and the Android flagship cost is getting higher and higher to the point of getting close to apple..... Just that have to compromise for restrictive ios and lightning cable which will change to USB c in next iphone

Am I the one gaslighting here? Telling people that you've read somewhere from Moto China that this phone doesn't take good pictures, seeing dust under the camera lens, etc which nobody from this Lowyat forum have claimed happened to their device.

Lol at blindly supporting when I keep on switching from Samsung - Google - Motorola. I use an iPad Mini 6 for my tablet needs and Surface Go as my laptop. The point is - I'm a fan of technology. I was supposed to purchase the Xiaomi 12 Ultra had they lowered the price.

And yes, I weigh things by the price - value ratio. I've said this and gonna say it again - the Moto Edge 30 Ultra/X30 Pro 512gb priced at RM2.6k is bang for the buck. No other OEM can match the specs and features in this price range. Not even those cheap OEMs like Xiaomi, Realme, Oppo or Vivo.

Right, great value because you already bypassed sirim tax and import tax that official distributor have to add on ( along with their own margin)

If official set can easily reach over 3k+

Also 12S ultra is supposed to be "show off" model and other than china market, you can import only as well. (Ignore xiaomi global division "paper launch" lol). It has very short lifespan. This model is being discontinued right now in china

I just feedback what user feedback in global forum. Is that consider gaslight? Get your logic right, what I am saying is true but yours is bias toward moto. Others can judge whether whether you are bias or not. Actually it is quite obvious lol

No user feedback about dust in camera in this thread? Yes, you are right. How many user of x30 pro? As what u said few and I guess less than 10 user in this thread that actually post stuff here. Go see the forum yourself, it is lenovo official forum for edge 30 ultra.

It's not non existent when in Malaysia itself the user base is super low because it is not officially available. I do agree with u through that xiaomi 12s ultra spec and camera is better than x30 pro but priced too expensive.

Indeed x30 pro is good for the price but again the problem is it's not officially available and the thing I am saying is true.

Lol side story, you type "I am not biased" but what you are doing are biased. Calling was reported by user online as gaslight and ignoring the hassle in time taken for warranty claim claiming seller will take good care of buyer because it's their bread and butter.

Sometimes I am wonder whether you are associated with moto seeing the way you so hard core promoting lol.

I don't think I can wait, plan to claim for tax deduction in YA2022. Xiaomi not really my favorite, I prefer clean stock Android like ex oneplus, pixel and moto. Unfortunately pixel not officially available in Malaysia or else I don't mind to pay little higher for what they able to offer. Their software support is the best among all Android.

For customized ui, I think the best is emui by huawei due to my personal experience but too bad it don't have gms. For now the best option available for 8+gen 1 is mi 12t pro and oneplus 10t but 12t pro priced lower and two years warranty.

Most probably I will settled down for 12t pro and go for custom rom after warranty end. I notice xiaomi device got quite a lot of option for custom rom as compared to the current one plus.

Haha true. No hassle with paying SIRIM and import tax as these are being shouldered by the seller 🥳

Here's a good camera comparison between the Edge 30 Ultra vs 12s Ultra
https://youtu.be/RqAY2OeHFoc

Interesting that Motorola beats Xiaomi in almost all categories.

Another camera comparison with the 2 latest Xiaomi phones
https://youtu.be/nNieoJPMaSw

I agree on the very short lifespan of Xiaomi phones. There are leaks already of Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro. I wonder how latest buyers of the 12 would feel.

You feedback something that you have not experienced at all and disregard the fact that existing users in Malaysia do not have these issues you've mentioned.

How many users have dust in the camera? How many percent of the total Edge 30 Ultra buyers? Do you have any statistics? And what was Motorola's response to these users? Did the users claim warranty? Yes? No? Don't know?

If Edge 30 Ultra has these issues, Mate 50 series also have their own -- https://www.huaweicentral.com/huawei-should...mate-50-phones/

What is the relevance you will ask? -- there WILL always be lemon units - regardless which brand you are buying.
Motorola pioneered six sigma which are being used by other companies to improve quality and minimize defects.

There is NO company that has zero defect. There is an acceptable threshold to which companies track before mass producing a product.

Sometimes I wonder whether you are here to discourage people from buying Motorola for them to choose your favorite brand. 😅

You think too much. I am just comment based on my understanding and info shared by user via forum. It's what forum suppose to do sharing info.

Indeed I don't own the device but I cannot say for sure whether Malaysia user face such a problem or not. It's not happen to you doesn't mean it's not exist, in the first place it's only you that mentioned own the device here as what I remember. Maybe you are the chosen one who doesn't face any problem at all.

Now you questioning me on statistic some more trying to defend for your favorite brand. I don't have any of that but from what someone share in forum nothing was done except Motorola open back case clear the dust then close it back which the user not happy and share in forum.

Yup there are always some defect in phone even iPhone, nothing is perfect but it's perfectly fine to share info via forum as what it intended to do.

Now you even bring some sort of six sigma implement by moto where normal consumer have totally no ideas what is it about. I am trying to discourage people to buy moto? You just hallucinate, I do share the pros and cons for others device as well including moto. It is general fact that is undeniable and the only way to address by manufacturer or seller is ask for statistic instead to change focus.

You are the one being weird here and trying to hardcore promote for moto and doing whatever you can to defend the brand. Somehow I think you are either associated with moto you are seller that trying to hardcore promote it. Your attempt actually make your claim look less trustable.

You even share huawei problem that was shared by user to justify.... Lol I already mentioned it don't have gms and 5g, that's why I won't choose it even I find the os and hardware was good. I am been fair on the comment and let user to decide for what they want and need.

For you wise is totally different story. Basically what you are doing is saying Motorola is super good and trying to find excuse for all sort of issues and cons. Suite yourself, I find talk to hardcore fan is wasting my time......😅

To add on I am here because I am interested in the device itself as I mentioned previously it got all the tick except for what some user share in the forum and not officially available set.

Lol if you cannot accept people sharing the cons of your favourite brand, might as well close the thread, it's kind of normal for forum to share on pros and cons and normal people will just take it normally unlike hardcore fan that keep defending. To be honest I don't think it will make any difference if the thread itself didn't exist. I don't see any user except you here that actually own the device 😂

Oh.. am I thinking too much or you think too much? Scaring people of the "risks" in buying import set then again scaring people of "dust" under the camera which you try to blow out of proportion but failed. tongue.gif

Anyway, as what they all say, numbers don't lie wink.gif
Given the 97% 5-star ratings in JD.com with thousands of user feedback, it is not just me who is very much satisfied with this device happy.gif

Wow I was right, talk to you really useless. You are super hardcore fan. I trying to scare user off? It is general problem in buying import set.

I try to blow out regarding to dust in camera? https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/motorola-edge-...era/m-p/5178606

It is share by people in official lenovo forum. Read it hardcore fan. Now even bring out jd website and try to defend the brand by using the buyer comment in the shopping website. China shopping website is prone is flooding the fake comment....... Number do lie for China shopping website.

It's kind of funny that you keep defending the brand. It's just not normal, either you associated with moto or is a seller for the brand. If non of this is true then maybe you are really just a blind hardcore fan lol

Btw I don't think there are any need to reply you any further. Your behaviour just make the brand look bad and it might cause people think twice on good thing you mention in the brand is true or not.

From what I can see, in your eye you only saw the good thing of the brand and not the bad thing. When someone saying the bad thing then you try to defend with a lot of excuses.

When people saying it took longer for import set to warranty claim as compared to official available set then instead of acknowledge the issue, you said "seller will take good care of those buying import set and it is their bread and butter"

The issue shared by user in official moto forum then u ignore and go talk on "6 sigma & shopping website comment"........

Said no volte for edge 30 pro "then u said moto no need do anything"...... For you is basically moto is perfect and you own every single device which is not normal unless you are associated with the company or you are seller. If not mistaken I have seen u in edge 20 pro, 30 pro, 30 forum and even xda forum........

Anyway I won't reply further, lol basically you will just ignore and saying what you want to say at the end of the day. Yes moto is the best! Happy? 😂

To each his own.
Be contented with your purchase.
Stop taking happiness away from people.

Let people enjoy their device and avoid using scare tactics and sway people away. You are making the Motorola brand look bad but it's not working ✌️

Motorola is not the best high-end smartphone but the best when it comes to pricing with its flagship specs.

12gb RAM/ 512gb storage - RM2,663 😲

For those who are interested, don't hesitate to contact Fast Tech.
https://www.facebook.com/fastech.my

You can message them if you have doubts with warranty claims. 👍

Btw, it's common sense that import set will take longer to receive the phone and will take longer to repair for any warranty claim.
So is that a risk? lol


Btw guys, just to compare:

Motorola Edge 30 Ultra (official price in UK): ~RM4,000 256gb storage
Motorola Edge 30 Ultra (X30 Pro in CN - import set from Fast Tech) ~RM2,663 512gb storage.


Thank you Motorola China for selling great devices to price-conscious consumers like myself.
I hope other OEMs will follow suit (I'm looking at you, Xiaomi) tongue.gif

Wow, just sharing pros and cons, you said is scare tactic. I tried to make the brand look bad? Lol, funny. I just simply share what user feedback in their official forum. I do feedback in other phone as well honestly.

Are you this seller? I notice you quite hardworking promoting and time to time update their pricing. If it's really not related likw what you claim then you really like to do charity and love keeping all moto device as what your activeness in edge 30 & pro thread.

The pricing wise is good for the spec but it's a norm for import device to be cheaper so it's not really fair to compare the price to official device. It's not apple to apple comparison.

Anyhow more competition is good for consumer to bring down the price and more competition is always welcome. Not to xiaomi, every brand is the same, more competition is advantages for consumer.

It will be good if this will be bring in to Malaysia officially. Side story your behaviour really make me doubt what you are saying, so hardcore promote moto really should hire you if you really are not associated with them in anyway as what you claim.

I'm not associated with Fast Tech and it's my first time buying from them with the X30 Pro. I am advising potential buyers to buy from them because they have the cheapest price.

I previously bought devices from other online sellers (T&L Telecom, Monmar, etc..) but I don't want buyers to miss the opportunity (I know a lot of people are on a tight budget).

Yeah, I hope they do hire me so I can also earn additional money.
I'm active in updating the pricing so they will give Moto a chance. As what you have said, more competition is good for consumers.

Lol maybe they really should hire you since you so highly promoting. I agree with what you mentioned on the price.

Only one thing I find it weird, you claim it's your first time buying from them but previously you mentioned something like seller will take good care of you, it is their bread and butter bla bla bla

Ignoring the potential lead time for whole process of user >seller>China>service centre >China>malaysia>seller>user.......... Buying the device itself got eta 9 days as their listing online, imagine if warranty claim.....

You sound so confident that it feel like you are very familiar with fast tech when in fact you even never experience claiming process with them 😂

Anyhow it's a good price for the spec and close to stock Android. If someone is OK with all the pros and cons can go ahead and buy.

I dislike this option in fastech for x30 pro
Motorola flash global rom rm20 , warranty void if phone in can’t on
I would safeguard my buyers but of course someone would argue to defend but nevermind.

You are seller???? The problem with import set especially x30 pro is not just the hassle in claim warranty in first year. There are potential risk of much bigger hassle if problem arise after warranty expired, by then whether seller will layan buyer in sending to China without charges is a question itself. Only can take the word by seller then as they by right only cover for the first year.

If buyer want to send to local store to repair also is a problem. As it is not available in Malaysia unlike other import counterpart, where to find the part...... Anyway that is side story and something that might be happening only in the future. Again if buyer OK with all the potential issue above can just buy it.

Fast Tech should just scrap giving option add on to flash global ROM.
No sense updating as CN ROM officially supports GMS.

Ic. To be honest I think everything happen for a reason. The price itself already cheap, what to expect for the service afterward especially after warranty expired 😅

Before buy anything sure the promoter say what also no issue, what also can 1. When problem arise then will know the truth 😂

If you read again my previous post, you would know it is a general statement for reputable online sellers which I even mentioned (T&L, Monmar and Fast Tech).

I am confident because it happened to me in 2020 - when I purchased my Google Pixel 5 from T&L. It's not my first purchase from them but it was the first time I got a lemon unit.

Neither you or anyone can take away the good learning experience I had from claiming the warranty.

Would I want another experience? Absolutely not. But it took all my doubts away from buying online (note: from a reputable seller).

Though I agree with you that the process will take longer not because they are slow but logistics is something people should know.

I know you wouldn't understand because you've never bought any import set and it actually shows. And yeah, taking "risks" to save money is not for everyone.

Side note: Medium/big online sellers have physical offices in KL. It's an actual office with employees working as service reps and whatnot (not Lowyat style as what you might think).

I've seen the company and the people behind it with my own eyes. That is why I mentioned this is their bread and butter. You know, in any kind of service, one dissatisfied customer means 10. They are seriously attending to any issue. This is their job, not a sideline or part time work. I pity them if people start trolling just because they are against import selling.

No point to hardcore promote. The thing you shared is by T&L and not fast tech where you ask people to buy from. You not even have any experience with fast tech and you try very hard to convince people to buy......

Like what you mentioned, I don't have any experience with import set so I won't understand. For me personally, I won't even consider import set especially those without the same model in local market.

It's just too problematic if any issue arise as compared to those with local service centre, it's undeniable time taken and process to direct deal with service centre is faster and easier. I am using the device for not just one year so it's not for me based on personal preference.

Anyway if anyone can accept all pros and cons can ahead o buy it. It's non of my concern actually, I am not the 1 that have to deal with anything that happen afterward. Who know the buyer is a chosen 1 that won't face any problem at all.

Additional you mentioned have seen the company and people behind it 🤔. Seem like mystery solved on why you so hardcore promoting it. Lol anyway let everyone to decide what they want to do with their money, I am sharing based on my understanding and it's totally find for you to defend and promote.

You don't need to experience claiming warranty just to believe. If that is the case, all phone buyers (yes, ALL) should not trust any seller if they have never claimed any warranty at all. I just don't get that logic.

I am promoting Fast Tech because I realized they are selling the cheapest import devices (not just Motorola) among all online sellers - including the other sellers I have mentioned.

Do I also need to claim warranty just to believe them? Absolutely not. Because some other people have claimed warranty from them. If this is the logic you are abiding, then by all means, don't buy something from someone if you have never claimed warranty first-hand. Don't believe they can attend to any issue. Don't believe they will cover the warranty for you.


You have a point that it will be difficult because Edge 30 Ultra is not available locally. I can say the same to Xiaomi 12s Ultra which is not available locally but people are still buying.


Anyway, I am here to help people look for a cheaper alternative. I don't earn anything in return.
Maybe it's just me.

You don't need to experience claiming warranty just to believe. If that is the case, all phone buyers (yes, ALL) should not trust any seller if they have never claimed any warranty at all. I just don't get that logic.

I am promoting Fast Tech  because I realized they are selling the cheapest import devices (not just Motorola) among all online sellers - including the other sellers I have mentioned.

Lol. At least you are been honest that you are promoting for them 😂. I personally prefer to deal direct with service centre as I own device for at least 2 years and above.

The longest I think is my mate 10 pro close to 4 years. That's why import set won't be my option. But others are feel free to do what they want with their money through.

The xiaomi 12s ultra is ridiculous as well. That 1 as I remember is 4k plus. Lol with such an amount I rather go for iphone or other flagship. But that's just me, everyone are free to do wat they want with their money.

Yup, as what @biotic_boy has shown in the screenshot, only English, English (Malaysia) and Chinese.
And no, I'm not the only person who owns this device in this forum like what other people claim.

I also suggest you follow Fast Tech's Telegram icon_idea.gif

You can know more about the business and how to order/claim warranty.

CN ROM

Pros:
1. Faster software updates compared to Global ROM
2. More customization options
3. Way way cheaper vs Global Edge 30 Ultra


Cons:
1. Need to manually install Google Play Store and all Google Apps
2. Cannot turn on "Hey Google" as this phone has "Hello Moto" voice command.

1. Because CN ROM only has 2 languages - English and Chinese
2. Because other people think CN ROM cannot use Google so they decide to flash Global ROM
3. Because Fast Tech may not be aware that flashing to Global ROM will have issues with software update and can never go back to stock/original state. Bootloader will be unlocked forever and will have a warning message everytime you restart your phone.. this is forever. No turning back once you convert.

If bootloader unlock and root but still stay original CN ROM, can still receive OTA update?

Warranty void it unlock bootloader?

Ask seller on warranty part as it's warranty provided by local seller. Generally unlocked bootloader is void warranty for the official set unless you able to relock before send go service.

As per my understanding even after root also can receive ota update for official set. China set wise then no idea

You look back at previous thread..... How many people claim to own the device and posted here as active as TS. It's normal I only remembered he as the only user.....

Nothing wrong with the post itself. I just have issue that the TS so hardcore promote ignoring all the cons. No issue with the seller or whatsoever. Look back from the thread from start, what I am stated is fact and it's TS who tried hard to promoting regardless of fact.

Lol side story, for eg TS said 5g is just a signal and won't affecting unofficial set. Go look at pixel 7 or 6 thread I think someone shared unofficial set after root got 5g access initally then suddenly got blocked from using 5g by telco. Think twice before listening hardcore fan.

Just sharing some info based on fact and something shared by user. If you didn't tag me probably I won't even open this thread anymore as I already buy 12t pro during 1111 sales, 12gb 256 for less than 2.5k.

For me I won't consider unofficial china set as I have to claim for tax deduction and why I am posting here before is I personally interested in the device. As simple as that.

Can claim or not then I am not 100% sure, someone did told me before cannot claim if not official set. Quite make sense also as the device practically is buy from China seller just local seller do the resell.

Anyway when you do online e filling, you can just submit whatsoever. Normally they won't check 1 but as what I remember they have right to recheck for up to 10 years back if I remember correctly. So touchwood if they check, lol just submit and act dumb lo. Whether it will be problem or not I guess is depend on the officer who do the checking.

Honestly I never like miui also. I find a lot of bloatware and skin quite heavy but I want 8+gen 1. That's why I go for 12gb, if 8gb during 1111 can get below 2.3k. Out of this from official set only oneplus 10t and mate 50. Oneplus 10t is more expensive and 1 years warranty while mate 50 wise is without gms and 5g

So the only choice I have is mi 12t pro for official set. Maybe I already buy edge 30 ultra if official set available and at the right price. I guess I will try to live with miui first for the two years warranty period, after that probably I will go for custom ROM if by then I still didn't get used to the UI.

Lol you can go to any IT store and xiaomi store to raba and feel the device. Basically every store have the display set there. Spec wise still edge 30 ultra better if can you accept all the pros cons below:

Pros:
Better frame (metal frame vs plastic frame)
Better second and third camera (telephoto and wide angle)
Near stock ui
USB 3.0
Ready for support (video out)

Cons:
Only China set available
5g uncertainty
Warranty claim lead time (longer than when dealing with service centre direct)
1 year local seller warranty
Poor photo processing and auto focus problem when video recording as shared by user across global and China forum
Dust in telephoto lens (as shared by user in global forum and might not happen to everyone)
Problem to repair it locally when warranty expired as might not be able to get the part

Other than that the device should be performing well. It's totally fine to proceed if buyer are OK with all aspect.

I guess those people are everywhere. I notice another one in mate 50 thread in kopitiam section, the TS of that is even worst 😂.

Anyway thanks. I still have some aspect that I don't like with 12t pro but not much choices available and quite a good value that's why I go for that at the end.

op=original poster=ts in a way.

from what I see, p7p user use root method to get 5G signal. maybe that's contributing factor for 5G restriction.

im using digi and this phone allowed me to get volte while my prev op7T fails to get.

kinda eager to buy celcom prepaid just to try 5G, but ill just wait till digi prepaid have 5G enabled

Ya it might be also. The interesting part is they got it supported initially after root and it was blocked sometime later by telco.

Somehow it show telco might be blocking depending on phone and not as simple as just signal related as per 4g. It's good that digi 5g work without any issue in your device, the user who shared the problem is using umobile. Probably there are some different between how different telco working.

Anyway the risk is across the board for all import device, it will be good if got supported by default. Or else I don't think there are any channel to make a complaint, telco and mcmc got the right to not layan import unofficial set.

Oh this model not officially available from Moto MY. Confusing with the name. The 30 Pro that I thought is this model is actually the Edge 30 Pro.

Some manufacturer don't void warranty for unlocking bootloader, such as OnePlus.

What I understand also usually even after unlock bootloader and root still can get OTA update. But will lose root. Moto being previously owned by Google and cater to USA market hopefully have open attitude towards modding community.

Moto now is belong to lenovo. As this is unofficial China set, the warranty part after root is quite subjective depending in China side policy. No comment from me through, the best is ask seller if someone interested in the device.

I won't even consider import China set, who know how much they will charge if something go wrong after 1 year warranty to sending back to China without considering the part cost. I don't think seller will bear the cost and no way to repair it locally as official set counterpart is not even available.

Anyway the best is to check with seller. Lol but general rule of thumb before buying normally what also can be discussed, when problem arise then only we will know. That's why I rather deal direct with service centre instead of seller.

It really depends on luck, there must be some people buying import set without any problem. When problem arise just buy a new 1 very simple. For me I use device for more than 2 years normally so import set doesn't suite my need but it might suite some people.

Side story, I wish to join boat to pixel as software and community support is excellent. Hopefully it will be officially available in Malaysia in near future like our neighbouring country sing

I have use few imported phones, so far luckily don't have any problem.

Local warranty doesn't mean can claim warranty without any problem, especially when it's under distributor, as how it is for most brand in Malaysia. Many years ago my local set phone warranty claim dragged for almost a year, all because of change in distributor. I have to contact their Asia Pacific office to get it claim under warranty. Ironically that phone is Motorola.

I have use few imported phones, so far luckily don't have any problem.

Local warranty doesn't mean can claim warranty without any problem, especially when it's under distributor, as how it is for most brand in Malaysia. Many years ago my local set phone warranty claim dragged for almost a year, all because of change in distributor. I have to contact their Asia Pacific office to get it claim under warranty. Ironically that phone is Motorola.

Ya very depending on luck. Local service centre doesn't mean it won't have any problem as well, if within warranty period then lesser room for pushing the responsibility.

That's also why I going for 12t pro with 2 years official warranty. Nowadays will be easier, if they drag warranty claim for nonsense reason just go for their social media, lol then I believe it will be resolve much faster.

It's their reputation on stake through. I think it's always better to deal with service centre direct with official set. I believe it will be much worse experience if the problem you facing last time is involving unofficial set then you won't even have the option to contact their Asia Pacific office 😅

Anyway it's quite subjective and normally phone rarely have problem. That's also why last time many phone store offering extended warranty as a policy basis. It's all just speculative, in my case wise I hate to deal with problematic thing that's why I rather go for official set even if it more expensive

Some people just like to argue for the sake of arguing.


Don't worry, many people are still buying import devices because they are old enough to know the risks and reward of getting one.

Even trying to convince the risk whether can claim warranty from seller or not when in fact, online sellers have already stated the T&C.

If one doesn't know how to read and understand, it's his problem, not ours.

pikacu this is what I am saying, the issue I have with all those irrational diehard fan. For TS everything negative related to his favourite brand been recognize as "argue for the sake of argue" and "problem of the 1 who stated the pros and cons without bias"

He cannot even state out which point I am saying is wrong and simply put the label just because TS don't like the comment. That's also why I question credibility of the thing he stated as in his eye everything by moto is perfect.....

Some people know how to insinuate but think nothing is wrong with that.

Also putting words in someone else's mouth that the TS claims he's the only one who owns the device which the TS never claimed.

Anyway, this is about Moto Edge 30 Ultra and not about anyone.

So I'm happy to help people know more about the device. smile.gif

Lol read carefully. I am saying “as per my understanding” TS is the only one who claim to own the device. You didn't say you own the device? you sure? As I remember you did say you own the device. Why I only remember you? It is because your activeness. Only recently that I saw suddenly got more people saying they own the device in the thread.

This is why I have problem with diehard fan. They didn't know how to read and trying their best to twisted your word. Anyway when did this become about anyone? All I am saying is about pros and cons of this device, it's you who keep on die hard defending.........

I really cannot understand the mindset of hardcore fan but unfortunately I cannot stop myself to replying whenever I saw their irrational behavior although I am fully understand that it's wasting my time. Lol btw you can consider stop tagging me, then you won't have to deal with the unbiased comment about the device that you didn't like 😂

Lol, likewise "TS never claimed" is like a joke. Just a piece of advise, too hardcore promoting will just caused different effect from intended. Neglecting won't cause the issue to disappeared by it own. Anyway, good luck

Price update as of Nov 2022

256gb - RM2443
512gb - RM2663

There is no change in price and could have reached the threshold. This could change by end of year though where more people are spending money.

If only that 200MP could take good pictures of moving objects (like Pixel's unblur feature), that could literally seal the deal for me.

Haha yes. It has an updated processor but loses in camera combo.

X40 - 50mp main + 50mp ultrawide + 12mp portrait lens
X30 Pro - 200mp main + 50mp ultrawide + 12mp portrait lens

Although as I've previously mentioned and I think will still be the case, the 50mp main camera will still have faster autofocus vs the 200mp camera. I can attest to this as I sometimes struggle to get focus in dim lighting. I never had this problem with my old Edge 30 Pro.

Interested in this phone, seems like one of the best value propositions available at the moment.

The shortcomings of the China ROM and even post-warranty ownership seem mostly manageable I think?

1. Firstly there's a decent chance you won't need any repairs whatsoever throughout the phone's lifespan (I've yet to make a single repair or warranty claim in over two decades of using various phones, and while of course I know lemons exist, I'm not too worried).

2. If you do need repairs, the cost can probably be offset with how much you're saving on buying the phone itself.

3. The time it takes to complete the repair may or may not be much different from some local suppliers. Just use your spare phone in the meantime.

4. Uncertainty on 5G is a bit of a gamble but maybe can assume it will PROBABLY be ok?

5. Should likely wait for the announcement of the X40 in a few days to see if this one's price drops even further. Unless it's a GIANT leap in performance and features, the X30 Pro would likely still retain a good cost-to-performance ratio.

6. Small matter but I hate when I buy a new phone and the plug head requires an adapter...

No intention of adding any fuel to this fiery thread, just my thought process, still undecided for now.

If can I think better you wait for edge 40, they might even launch in Malaysia. Or else have a look at iqoo 11 if value price for hardware is something you are looking for.

Someone even said it support vowifi for various Telco but not this. You may check the iqoo sub thread if you are interested. Been a brand in Malaysia for quite some time, most of moto device still don't even have vowifi support but a newly launch sub brand can do it....

Update wise is really slow, now still in oct security as what I know. For a device that market with near stock android gimmick was like a joke. I suppose Nokia is the only brand who act like stock os, apparently their x20 already got the android 13 update.

People go for near stock android is because of smooth experience plus fast update. Now 8 gen 2 is coming, if can better just wait and have a look at different offering.

5g very tricky now, not as simple as signal at least for now. Import device better don't, Telco won't even layan u if your device didn't able to access 5g by default. They will just tell you it's not official Malaysia device and close case.

Wait and see approach is the best way for now. Iqoo 11 was launch, then will be xiaomi 13, OnePlus, edge 40 etc etc coming. I personally think maybe moto won't even bring in edge 40 here like what they did for edge 30 ultra but no harm to wait and see. Unless after launch the price for edge 30 ultra sink and match your expectation.

Thank you for the detailed thoughts, will check out iqoo 11, and yes wait and see approach sounds like the smartest bet for now!

Enable 5G in Moto X30 Pro, Android 13

Hi Everyone, after a lot of research, I found the solution for Enable 5G in Moto X30 Pro after upgrading to Android 13
as everyone knows Motorola policy disabled 5G outside China for Chinese version devices
but there is a solution that is 100% working, There is NO NEED TO ROOT OR ANY APP
First thanks to lenovo78633889 for posting the solution in the Motorola Chinese Forum
1. Turn Off Phone
2. Remove Sim Card(s)
3. Turn On Phone
4. Go to Settings>Apps>See All Apps>Select 3 Dots in the Top right Side and Select Show system apps>Then Select Carrier Setting and Remove Storage Date then Disable App, then Uninstall Carrier Service
5. Go to Settings>System>Reset Options>Reset Wifi, mobile & Bluetooth
6. Shutdown Phone
7. Insert Sim Card(s)
8. Turn On Phone
9. Check and you will see the 5G is already back, and you can use it

Thanks for this suprise!
Confirmed Digi telco 5G is WORKING on the X30 Pro!

However, one thing I've noticed is the phone is aggressively switching to 4G even if I have a full bar of 5G.

I tried forcing 5G by selecting "NR only" but it didn't work - I don't get any signal at all.

I reverted to NR/LTE preferred network type.

UPDATE: TOGGLE OFF "Smart data mode" from Settings so it won't aggressively switch to 4G.

Everything works perfectly now!

So apparently, Motorola updated their flagship Moto X40 (Edge 40 Pro) to Android 14 last month which is impressive given the track record of Moto under Lenovo brand.

I'm sure the next device to get A14 is the Razr 40 Ultra followed by Edge 30 Ultra/X30 Pro. As to when, it will be a surprise.

?? It's still the same. I don't need to tap the screen to wake. It will automatically wake up when I receive a notification. And that is different from the lock screen notification. Don't confuse yourself.

I suggest you to explore the phone deeper in Settings as the "Moto" app is gone. They integrated all Moto features under Settings app.

Yes you enabled wake screen upon receiving noti. Im not.
Previously i set not waking screen but only black and white screen with peek message enabled, when you tap on WhatsApp logo

Please do not believe everything you see in the forum. They are also users just like you and me who may not have explored that long.

Below is where you can enable PEEK DISPLAY.
And that is NOT the lockscreen. When you move your phone or tap the display ONCE, it will take you to the Peek Notification.

And below is where you can enable wake up to lockscreen. You need to DOUBLE TAP the screen. See the difference?

In my previous screenshot, when you tap the WhatsApp logo, it did NOT take me to the lockscreen. It is the NEW PEEK DISPLAY.

You CAN REPLY TO YOUR MESSAGE WITHOUT UNLOCKING THE PHONE (YES YOU CAN!) Why can I reply to the message? Because it's NOT the lockscreen! Lol


Again, don't confuse yourself just because the NEW Peek Display has a background wallpaper. Peek Display is NOT black and white anymore.

In my previous screenshot, when you tap the WhatsApp logo, it did NOT take me to the lockscreen. It is the NEW PEEK DISPLAY.

You CAN REPLY TO YOUR MESSAGE WITHOUT UNLOCKING THE PHONE (YES YOU CAN!) Why can I reply to the message? Because it's NOT the lockscreen! Lol
Again, don't confuse yourself just because the NEW Peek Display has a background wallpaper. Peek Display is NOT black and white anymore.

Im talking about old peek display , not new one.
You can choose not to believe any forum. But is a feature that most ppl want it back.

In the link you provided, they said Peek Display is gone. They weren't able to explore the phone more. That is the reason why I uploaded the screenshot.

You were insisting that Peek Display is gone and only lockscreen notification is there after update.

I told you these are 2 different things in the Android 14:

1. New Peek Display where you can reply to any notification without unlocking your phone. You need to enable tap once the display OR move the phone.
2. Lock screen notification when you double tap the screen

I also told you that the new Peek Display has a wallpaper background when you tap the icon (ex. WhatsApp).

And when I showed you the screenshot to prove Peek Display still exists in a new form, you're telling me you just want the black n white Peek Display? So what is the issue here? Is it Peek Display is gone or you just want a black n white Peek Display?

Because the original issue you told me is there is no Peek Display after update. Your statement is a bit confusing now.
