Should you buy the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra in India?

The Motorola Edge 50 Ultra is a unique offering in the segment. It is easily one of the best phones under Rs 55,000 in the country if your requirements are impressive cameras on paper (thanks to a 64MP telephoto sensor with OIS and 100x AI super zoom), an impressive 1.5K 144Hz pOLED display, and a premium design and build quality.

However, the battery capacity is relatively less at 4,500mAh compared to at least 5,000mAh cells in the competition. Motorola makes up for it with 125W fast charging. The Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 in general appears to have throttling issues, which could affect the performance under stress. If performance is your main requirement, you can choose the iQOO 12, which doesn’t have any throttling issues but misses out on AI features. 

Other than the iQOO 12, the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra will take on the likes of Realme GT 6, Xiaomi 14 Civi, iQOO 12, and others.
