People often want a phone that lasts all day, takes great pics, and helps them get stuff done, you know, something that fits their life. Well, the Motorola Edge (2024) just landed in North America with a 50MP camera system that promises great results in low light, plus large battery and fast 68W charging. This phone also has a thin, endless-edge design, all for a mid-range price.
