Motorola surprised a lot of people by launching a very powerful flagship killer in the global market earlier this month. We are talking about the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra: it is essentially a rebrand of the Motorola Moto X30 Pro, but it is the first Ultra phone from the Lenovo-owned brand and it packs amazing specifications for everyone. However, in the global market, there are already several amazing flagship killers which reached very interesting street prices. We are obviously talking about the ones released in the first half of this year, such as the OnePlus 10 Pro and the Realme GT 2 Pro. Do they offer higher value for money?

Design

The designs of the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra and OnePlus 10 Pro look more elegant due to the presence of curved displays. They are also built with premium materials, such as glass for the rear side and aluminum for the frame. The Realme GT 2 Pro has a flat display and a rear side made of a bio-polymer, so you should not expect the most amazing build quality, even though the material is unique in its genre and it resembles the touch and feel of the real paper. I personally prefer the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra due to its good look and more compact body.

 

Display

The OnePlus 10 Pro and the Realme GT 2 Pro have the same display (if we exclude the curvature) and it is a better panel than the one found on the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra. We are talking about an AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.7 inches able to show up to one billion colors with a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate, the HDR10+ certification, and an in-display fingerprint reader. It is a panel similar to the ones you can currently find on the most expensive flagship phones out there. The Motorola Edge 30 Ultra has a higher refresh rate of 144 Hz, but the resolution is lower and it comes with different P-OLED technology, providing an inferior quality.

 

Specs & Software

The Motorola Edge 30 Ultra offers something more than its rivals in terms of performance because it packs a slightly better processor. We are talking about the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 built with a 4 nm production process and sporting an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex X2 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.19 GHz, three Cortex A710 CPUs running at 2.75 GHz, and four Cortex A510 CPUs running at 1.8 GHz, as well as an Adreno 730 GPU. The chipset is paired with up to 512 GB of internal storage and up to 12 GB of RAM. The Realme GT 2 Pro and the OnePlus 10 Pro are fueled by an inferior Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 paired with up to 256 GB of native storage and up to 12 GB of RAM. On the other hand, they have better Android customization based on OPPO’s ColorOS.

 

Camera

On paper, the most advanced camera setup belongs to the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra. First of all, it is the world’s first device with a 200 MP rear camera, featuring OIS. Further, it has a 12 MP telephoto sensor and a 50 MP ultrawide camera. The Realme GT 2 Pro lacks a telephoto camera, replaced by a 3 MP microlens with 40x magnification. The OnePlus 10 Pro has a telephoto sensor with 3x optical zoom, but the main sensor is inferior with its 48 MP resolution. The Motorola also wins the selfie comparison thanks to its amazing 60 MP front camera able to record 4K videos.

 

Battery

The OnePlus 10 Pro and the Realme GT 2 Pro have a bigger battery than the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra, with a capacity of 5000 mAh. So they provide longer battery life; given that they have the same hardware components, they do not differ too much from each other in terms of battery life. But the OnePlus 10 Pro features faster 80W wired charging and, unlike the Realme, it even supports wireless charging.

 

Price

The Motorola Edge 30 Ultra launched in Europe with an €899/$899 starting price, the OnePlus 10 Pro can currently be found for less than €800/$800 with a bit of luck, and the Realme GT 2 Pro is even available for less than €700/$700. Which one would you pick?
