Motorola Unveils Edge 50 Pro: A Premium Upper-Midrange Contender
Immersive Display with Cutting-Edge Technologies
The Edge 50 Pro takes center stage with a stunning 6.7-inch curved pOLED display. This high-resolution panel (1220p) delivers exceptional visuals with a smooth 144Hz refresh rate for a fluid user experience. It boasts a peak brightness of 2,000 nits, ensuring excellent visibility even in bright outdoor conditions.
The display goes a step further by achieving Pantone color validation, a first for Motorola smartphones. This guarantees superior color accuracy, faithfully reproducing real-world colors and skin tones for an enhanced viewing experience. Additionally, a 50MP front-facing camera with autofocus and an in-display fingerprint scanner seamlessly integrate within the display.
Triple Camera System with AI Enhancements
On the rear, the Edge 50 Pro features a versatile triple-camera system. The 50MP main camera with an f/1.4 aperture and optical image stabilization (OIS) promises sharp and detailed photos in various lighting conditions. A 10MP telephoto lens offers 3x optical zoom for capturing distant subjects with clarity, while a 13MP ultrawide lens provides expansive shots. This ultrawide lens also doubles as a macro camera, allowing users to capture close-up details with exceptional focus.
Motorola introduces its first-ever AI Photo Enhancement Engine on the Edge 50 Pro. This technology leverages artificial intelligence to optimize photos, especially for capturing motion and enhancing color segmentation.
