Motorola is a classic brand. And though it’s not accepted as a traditional smartphone brand, this company still stays afloat. Today, it announced the much-talked Motorola Edge S. It’s the world’s first phone to sport the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870, clocked at 3.2GHz. Plus, it is the fastest 5G SoC so far.
The Motorola Edge S is Motorola’s first Edge series model released in China. It continues its business genes and is focusing on young business groups that seek a balance between work and entertainment.
Motorola Edge S Performance
The biggest feature is naturally the Snapdragon 870, which is the ultimate upgraded version of the Snapdragon 865 Plus. The ultra-large core frequency is as high as a record 3.2GHz, and the AnTuTu score exceeds 670,000.
The Snapdragon 870 uses a 7nm manufacturing process. It has eight Kryo 585 CPU cores. As a result, the performance is increased by 12%. The SoC integrates the Adreno 650 GPU, which has a performance increase of 10%. This chip also supports Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, and a fifth-generation AI engine with up to 15TOPS.
Motorola’s new handset comes with the latest LPDDR5 memory, enhanced UFS 3.1 high-speed flash storage, and supports up to 1TB microSD expansion card. The battery has a 5000mAh capacity. Due to the intelligent power saving, it can have a standby time of 2 days. This battery also supports 20W fast charge.
Connectivity
In terms of 5G network, the Motorola Edge S specially adopts Smart Antenna intelligent adaptive antenna array. The latter can effectively improve the transmission/reception signal strength of multiple scenarios and multiple communication frequency bands through intelligent adjustment of impedance and frequency. This will ensure high-speed and stable smartphone signals without dropping. It also supports MAAT With dual-channel dynamic self-tuning technology. This increases the weak scene strength by 100%.
