Motorola has introduced a new smartphone in the Edge line—the Motorola Edge 30. It’s a cheaper alternative to the flagship Edge 30 Pro and boasts some intriguing features like an AMOLED screen, OIS cameras, and more. So, let’s go through the specs, features, availability, and expected price of Motorola Edge 30 in Nepal.
Motorola Edge 30 Overview:
Design and Display
To begin with, the Moto Edge 30 boasts a 6.5” FHD+ AMOLED with 10-bit color depth, HDR10+ certification, and a 144Hz refresh rate. The screen also has a 144Hz refresh rate for smoother navigation across UI.
Moreover, the company touts the Edge 30 as the slimmest 5G phone, with a thickness of only 6.79mm while it weighs just 155 grams. The phone has an IP52 rating for dust and splash resistance. You also get Gorilla Glass 3 protection on the back, but there’s no mention of any toughened glass on the front.

Performance
Powering the smartphone is a Snapdragon 778G+ processor. This mobile silicon features a similar core architecture as Snapdragon 778, but with a bit higher clock speeds. The memory configuration includes 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of internal storage. Unfortunately, there is no option for a microSD card to extend the storage.
Over on the software front, the handset boots on Android 12 which gives a near-stock experience with a few Moto exclusive features. But, do note, that Motorola hasn’t pledged anything regarding software updates.
Cameras
Camera-wise, there’s a triple camera setup on the rear led by a 50MP primary sensor with support for optical image stabilization (OIS). Below it is a 50MP ultrawide lens with a 118° field of view that also acts as a macro sensor. Finally, there’s a 2MP depth lens. For capturing selfies, you get a 32MP camera on the front. Both the front and back cameras can shoot 4K videos, however, the latter can do so at up to 60fps, and the former is capped out at 30fps.
Rest of the specs
Moving on, the handset gets its juice from a 4,020 mAh battery that provides a day and a half of battery life on normal usage as per Motorola. Similarly, it’s charged using a 33W TurboPower adapter which is included in the box.
Aside from that, the connectivity option includes 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, and NFC. Sadly, there’s no 3.5mm headphone jack.
