Motorola launched the world’s first smartphone with a 200MP camera dubbed the Moto X30 Pro. The same event also introduced the world to the refreshed Razr 2022 foldable. Here, we will go through the Motorola Moto X30 Pro and its specs, features, availability, and price in Nepal.

Motorola Moto X30 Pro Overview:

Massive 200MP Primary Camera

The main highlight of the Moto X30 Pro is, no doubt, its camera. The phone is the first commercial product with Samsung’s 200MP ISOCELL HP1 sensor, which the company announced last year.

Motorola previously shared the first photos from X30 Pro’s 200MP sensor on Weibo, a Chinese microblogging site. The company even briefed that the 200MP camera will take 50MP photos natively with 4-in-1 pixel binning.

It is a different approach than the 108MP cameras on current mainstream flagships that utilize nona-binning (9-in-1). Motorola even claimed that HP 1’s 4-in-1 binning is superior to the 9-in-1 binning on other phones.

On the videography front, ISOCELL HP1  can shoot 8K videos at 30fps should the phone’s processor allow it. The phone also supports Optical Image Stabilization. As you can see in the pictures, the 200MP camera has resulted in a massive camera bump on the Moto X30 Pro.

It even raises higher than the other two sensors. Talking about the two sensors, one is a 12MP telephoto camera with 2x zoom and the other is a 50MP ultrawide. These are not as groundbreaking as the 200MP sensor, but impressive nonetheless.

The front camera has a 60MP sensor with 4-in-1 binning.

125W Fast Charging

Moving on, the Moto X30 Pro is Motorola’s first phone to have 125W fast charging support. The power brick uses GaN technology and weighs around 130 grams. Besides that, the phone also supports 50W wireless charging.

Motorola claims that the mAh battery on the smartphone can go from 0% to 100% in just 19 minutes.
