So Moto? Are we just giving up on North America?
The two current “Edge” phones (your premium phones) are the same price.

Someone might look at this and say:
“I want to get the newer phone! What a good deal!”

But the older Edge+ is more powerful and has DOUBLE the storage of the newer Edge phone.
The 2023 model is definitely a better buy, but there’s ZERO consumer education on phones other than Apple/Samsung/Google, and Moto isn’t really marketing here.

This late in the year, I guess we’re just not getting a new Edge+ phone from Moto? Why stay current and compete right?

Like Sony and LG before them, the strategy of “release a good phone, but dont tell anyone about it, until the company totally fades into obscurity” seems to be a LOSING strategy.

Makes my review work load a little easier year over year, but it sucks to lose good competition…

    @SomeGadgetGuy@techhub.social As a Moto Edge 30 Ultra I can say that Moto flagship devices are excellent.

    Unfortunately Motorola’s support is the worst. No accessories available and sec fixes always arrive late, after 3+ months. In addition Motorola tries to make its users install many promoted apps (some preselected, so users will just press the Next button, and everything is installed), every time it pushes sec updates.

    When my contract finished, I immediately came back to Pixel and bought the Pixel 8.
