The Xiaomi 12T Pro is definitely one of the most advanced flagship killers of the second half of 2022. Its price is not the most affordable, but it is not even the most expensive. Despite that, this is a phone with an outstanding camera and the best Qualcomm chipset out there, as well as one of the fastest charging technologies in the whole market. Is it enough to make it the best flagship out there in terms of value for money? We think there is no better way to understand it than comparing it to the most impressive flagship killers released by other brands. Here is a comparison between the main specifications of the Xiaomi 12T Pro and the Motorola Edge 30 Pro. The Edge 30 Pro is currently one of the most affordable flagship killers with top-tier hardware you can buy in the global market, that is the reason why it is the perfect rival of the new Xiaomi flagship. Here you will learn which one suits your needs the most.

Xiaomi 12T Pro vs Motorola Edge 30 Pro

Design

Despite being high-end phones, the Xiaomi 12T Pro and the Motorola Edge 30 Pro do not come with the most beautiful designs, but they are not ugly phones. These phones are built with glass backs and they sport very high screen to body ratios, thanks to narrow bezels around the displays. The Motorola Edge 30 Pro looks to have a more minimalistic look, with a camera module sporting the same color as the rest of the rear cover. These are not thin and lightweight phones because they pack above-average batteries, and they are not compact phones as well. An important added value of the Xiaomi 12T Pro is the presence of the IP53 certification making it dust resistant and splashproof, but the Motorola Edge 30 Pro has a water repellent design, so it offers some protection against water allowing you to use it under the rain. For the rest, follow your tastes and choose which one is the best for you consequently.

Display

The displays of these two phones belong to the same range, but on paper, it looks like the Xiaomi 12T Pro has a more advanced panel. It is an AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.67 inches able to show up to 68 billion colors with a Full HD+ resolution of 1220 x 2712 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate, HDR10 certification, Dolby Vision support, and a peak brightness of 900 nits. It also comes with an in-display fingerprint reader and stereo speakers. The Motorola Edge 30 Pro has an OLED display able to show up to one billion colors with a diagonal of 6.7 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 144 Hz refresh rate, and HDR10+ certification. The phone has stereo speakers and, despite its panel being an OLED, the biometric sensor is not in-display but it has a side-mounted fingerprint reader.

Specs & Software

If your goal is to get the most advanced hardware department, then you should opt for the Xiaomi 12T Pro. It is powered by a more powerful processor: the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. It is currently the best processor by Qualcomm, built with a 4 nm production process and with 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, four Cortex A510 CPUs running at 2 GHz, and an Adreno 730 GPU. Alongside the chipset, there are up to 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. The Motorola Edge 30 Pro is fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 built with a 4 nm production process and sporting an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex X2 core running at 3 GHz, three Cortex A710 cores running at 2.5 GHz, four Cortex A510 cores running at 1.8 GHz, and an Adreno 730 GPU. It is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of UFS 3.1 native storage. Both phones run Android 12 out of the box, but with different user interfaces on top.

Camera

If you love to shoot normal photos and you are looking for the best main camera, choose the Xiaomi 12T Pro because it is one of the world’s first phones with a 200 MP shooter, including OIS support. But if you want better ultrawide shots, then you should go for the Motorola Edge 30 Pro because it comes with a 50 MP main camera and another 50 MP camera for ultrawide photos. Further, the Edge 30 Pro has a better front camera with a 60 MP resolution.

Price

The Motorola Edge 30 Pro is available for less than €700/$700 globally, while the Xiaomi 12T Pro starts from €900/$900. Which one would you pick?

Xiaomi just launched the POCO F4 GT in the global market with an incredible price tag. Thanks to the launch promo, you need less than €500 to purchase a phone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, while it will cost €599 when the promo ends. We believe that, at least in the European market, the POCO F4 GT currently has only two rivals in the flagship segment: the Realme GT 2 Pro and the Motorola Edge 30 Pro. They are both more expensive as there is no SD8G1 phone at that incredible price, but they also offer something more. After comparing the latest Xiaomi flagship killer to the Realme GT 2 Pro, here is a comparison between the specifications of the POCO F4 GT and the Motorola Edge 30 Pro.

Motorola Edge 30 Pro vs Xiaomi POCO F4 GT

Design

Do you prefer a sober design or do you like original and gaming-centric aesthetics? If your answer is the former, then go for the Motorola Edge 30 Pro. But if you do not mind having an aggressive design, then you should opt for the Xiaomi POCO F4 GT. First of all, this handset comes with premium materials, unlike the Motorola Edge 30 Pro: it has a glass back and an aluminum frame. Further, it has two physical magnetic pop-up gaming triggers which can be extracted from the phone during the most competitive gaming sessions. The Motorola Edge 30 Pro has a water repellent design, but unfortunately, it is made of polycarbonate.

Display

The displays of these two phones are very close and it is hard to establish which one provides the best quality. The POCO F4 GT has a 6.67-inch AMOLED panel with a Full HD+ resolution, one billion colors, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and the HDR10+ certification. The Motorola Edge 30 Pro has an OLED panel with the same specifications, except for the fact that it comes with a higher 144 Hz refresh rate. Despite sporting AMOLED panels, both phones are equipped with side-mounted fingerprint readers. They also come with stereo speakers, but the POCO F4 GT has four speakers instead of just two. Note that the panel of the POCO flagship is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus, while the Motorola has Gorilla Glass 3 protection.

Specs & Software

The performance provided by these two flagships should be more or less the same. They are both powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 mobile platform: the best chipset by Qualcomm built at 4 nm and running at a max frequency of 3 GHz. The SoC is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM. Note that the Motorola Edge 30 Pro has a configuration with 512 GB of internal storage, while you can get maximum storage of 256 GB with the POCO F4 GT. The handsets run Android 12 out of the box with a customized user interface on top and they will get at least two major updates.

Camera

The most important advantage of the Motorola Edge 30 Pro over the POCO F4 GT is the camera setup. It has a triple rear camera including a 50 MP main sensor with OIS, a 50 MP ultrawide camera, and a 2 MP depth sensor. It even comes with a stunning 60 MP front camera supporting video recording with a 4K resolution. The POCO F4 GT has an inferior and midrange-class 64 MP main sensor paired with a non-impressive 8 MP ultrawide camera and a 2 MP macro lens.

Battery

The battery of the Motorola Edge 30 Pro has a slightly bigger capacity with 4800 mAh and, unlike the POCO F4 GT, it supports wireless charging. On the other hand, the POCO F4 GT comes with a faster charging technology, thanks to a 120W power against just 68W.

Price

As already mentioned above, the starting price of the POCO F4 GT is €599/$630 for the 8/128 GB configuration, while the starting listing price of the Motorola Edge 30 Pro is €799/$843. The Edge 30 Pro is actually a better flagship thanks to better cameras and wireless charging, but you can get something similar while saving €200: which one would you pick?

Earlier today, Chinese consumer tech brand Realme finally launched the Realme GT 2 Pro in India. The latest handset from the company is its first proper flagship smartphone. The device offers almost all the bells and whistles that are found on a premium phone. However, not everyone may like this handset. Hence, in this article, we have listed the best alternatives to the Realme GT 2 Pro in India.

The Realme GT 2 Pro is priced aggressively in India. It ties with the Motorola Edge 30 Pro as the most-affordable Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 smartphone in the country.

The device costs ₹49,999 for the base 8GB + 128GB variant and ₹57,999 for the higher 12GB + 256GB model. These price tags come down to ₹44,999 and ₹52,999 respectively via HDFC Bank and SBI card transactions. You can learn more about the offers here.

One of the main highlights of the smartphone is the material used for its back. The handset’s rear panel is made of biopolymer, which gives it a paper-like feel and texture. Customers can also opt for a regular glass back version. Visit this link to learn about the phone’s design.

The device will hit the shelves on April 14. If you can’t wait that long or looking for alternatives, we have got you covered.

If that’s not enough, the device offers Samsung DeX functionality and a useful 3x telephoto camera. But unfortunately, it not only ships without a charger but only supports 25W fast charging.

iQOO 9

In our opinion, the second-best alternative to Realme GT 2 Pro in India is iQOO 9. This handset is priced at ₹42,990 and ₹46,990 for 8GB + 128GB and 12GB + 256GB memory variants in the country.

The iQOO 9 also has 120W fast wired charging support and a 2.5x telephoto camera. Finally, it can be availed in mesmerizing BMW M Motorsport colorway, which officially goes by the name of ‘Legend’.

OnePlus 9RT

The OnePlus 9RT does not have any special features like the others on the list. It’s just that this phone is one of the best deals in its segment. It retails at ₹42,999 for the 8GB + 128GB version and ₹46,999 for the 12GB + 256GB variant.

BUILD	Aluminum Frame + Glass Back
DIMENSIONS & WEIGHT	162.2 x 74.6 x 8.3mm 198.5g

The successor of the OnePlus 9R has the same 50MP Sony IMX766 primary camera as the realme GT 2 Pro. It also has support for 65W fast wired charging.

Though the device falls behind in other aspects, it is still a good buy as it costs ₹7,000 less. 

Motorola Edge 30 Pro

Before the launch of the Realme GT 2 Pro, the Motorola Edge 30 Pro was the cheapest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in India. It comes in a single 8GB + 128GB memory configuration priced at ₹49,999.

BUILD	Plastic Frame + Glass Back

Other than the aforementioned features, there’s nothing interesting about this handset. But if you really care about Material You, it is the only option in the country as the Pixel 6 series is not sold here officially.

Xiaomi 11T Pro

The Xiaomi 11T Pro is the cheapest alternative to the Realme GT 2 Pro in India. It retails at ₹39,999, ₹41,999, and ₹43,999 for 8GB + 128GB, 8GB + 256GB, and 12GB + 256GB memory variants respectively. Customers can grab it at even lower prices via bank discounts.

If you are looking for the best affordable flagship under €800 in the European market, you have two best choices: the Motorola Edge 30 Pro and the Realme GT 2 Pro. They are the handsets offering top-tier specifications for 2022 at the most affordable prices. While Realme increased the prices of its flagships by releasing the Realme GT 2 Pro, Motorola decreased it, if you consider that the Motorola Edge+ carried a listing price above €1000. So which one is the best affordable flagship right now? This is a specs comparison between these two devices that should help you to understand.

Motorola Edge 30 Pro vs Realme GT 2 Pro

Design

If we talk about the design, the Realme GT 2 Pro is a more interesting phone: two of its three color options are built with a special bio-polymer resembling the tactile feedback of the paper. It is a sustainable material created to reduce carbon emissions. The design of the Realme GT 2 Pro is designed by the known Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa. The Motorola Edge 30 Pro has a classic glass back with a plastic frame and a not so impressive look, but it has a water repellent body and this may be interesting for those who want to use their phone in the rain. The GT 2 Pro is also a thinner phone.

Display

Realme GT 2 Pro wins even when it comes to the display specifications. It has an AMOLED panel with a diagonal of 6.7 inches, a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels, one billion colors, an adaptive refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz, and the HDR10+ certification. It provides a higher level of detail and a superior image quality overall. The Motorola Edge 30 Pro has an OLED display as well with one billion colors, but it comes with a lower Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and it lacks the LTPO technology enabling the adaptive refresh rate. On the other hand, it has a higher 144 Hz refresh rate.

Specs & Software

The most important advantage of these two flagships is the presence of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 mobile platform: it is actually the best Qualcomm SoC to date and it provides stunning performance in every usage scenario. The SoC is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 native storage. In terms of performance, these phones are pretty similar, so it is a draw. They run Android 12 out of the box and we know that the GT 2 Pro will get three years of major Android updates and four years of updates with security patches, while the software support policies for the Motorola Edge 30 Pro are not very clear at the moment.

Camera

Both the Realme GT 2 Pro and the Motorola Edge 30 Pro are equipped with a 50 MP main camera supporting OIS and a 50 MP ultrawide sensor providing amazing photo quality if we consider the price range. The Realme GT 2 Pro replaces the useless 2 MP macro camera of the Motorola Edge 30 Pro with a more interesting 3 MP microscope lens with 40x magnification. On the other hand, the Motorola flagship has a better 60 MP selfie camera with 4K video recording.

Battery

The Realme GT 2 Pro is equipped with a bigger 5000 mAh battery, while the Edge 30 Pro stops at 4800 mAh. This should give the GT 2 Pro a slight battery life boost. The charging speeds are similar as the two phones feature 65W and 68W fast charging, respectively.

Price

You need about €750/$818 to grab a unit of the Motorola Edge 30 Pro or the Realme GT 2 Pro in the European market. Note that the Motorola Edge 30 Pro is known as the Edge X30 in the Chinese market. With the actual prices, the Realme GT 2 Pro wins the comparison thanks to a better display and bigger battery. But the differences between these two phones are not big, so you may still consider the Edge 30 Pro if you find it at a more affordable street price.

Motorola has scheduled a global launch event for February 24. The Lenovo-owned brand is expected to unveil the Motorola Edge 30 Pro at this conference. This handset is said to be a rebranded Moto Edge X30, the world’s first Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 smartphone. Ahead of its official debut in the international markets, certain details about its Indian variant have emerged.

According to tipster Yogesh Brar, the Motorola Edge 30 Pro will arrive in a single memory configuration in India. The phone will be only available in an 8GB + 128GB version.

He further states that the device will have support for 13 5G bands. But unfortunately, just like the memory variant, it will be available in a sole Cosmic Blue color variant.

Unlike most recently released Android smartphones, this one will ship with Android 12 out of the box. It will be also eligible for two Android updates throughout its lifetime. So buyers can expect to use Android 13 as well as Android 14 on this handset in the future.

Finally, the leaker says that the phone will cost around ₹45,000-₹50,000 in India. This goes in line with the retail box leak from yesterday, which suggested an MRP (Maximum Retail Price) of ₹55,999. Usually, products don’t sell at their MRP, and therefore, we also guessed it to be priced under ₹50,000.

What are your thoughts on the upcoming Motorola Edge 30 Pro based on the aforementioned information? Do let us know in the comment section below.

The Motorola Moto Edge X30 is the world’s first smartphone with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset. The handset made its debut in China in December. The device is expected to hit the international markets with a new name – Motorola Edge 30 Pro. The launch event is scheduled for February 24. Ahead of that, a leak hints at the price of the phone in India.

An industry source of MySmartPrice has revealed the box price of the upcoming Motorola Edge 30 Pro in India. The smartphone’s retail box is said to carry a price tag of ₹55,999.

For those unaware, the retail boxes of handsets in India include the MRP (Maximum Retail Price) of the product and not the actual selling price. Usually, the selling price is way lower than the price mentioned on the box.

Hene, we can expect the phone to retail under ₹50,000 in India. Perhaps, it might cost ₹49,999 or even lower.

It’s predecessor Motorola Edge 20 Pro was released in the country at ₹36,999. Hence, there’s a chance that the device may cost around ₹40,000.

Anyway, as the global launch of Motorola Edge 30 Pro is still more than a week away, we expect to learn its exact pricing for multiple markets, including India in the coming days. 

Until then, let us know how much it will cost in the comment section below. For context, the smartphone starts at ¥3,199 ($503) in China for the base 8GB + 128Gb memory configuration.

Motorola has recently teased the Indian release of the Moto Edge 30 Pro aka the rebrand of the China Exclusive Moto Edge X30. It is set to launch on February 24th and is expected to be the exact same device as the Edge X30. Now, a popular tipster has released new renders of the upcoming phones along with a picture that is sure to get some customers excited.

Popular tipster Evan Blass, known on Twitter as @evleaks has shared two new images of the upcoming Moto Edge 30 Pro.

The first image reveals the same design as the Moto Edge X30, all but confirming the rumors that the device will look the exact same as its Chinese counterpart. It is the second image that piques our interest.

It depicts the Edge 30 Pro in a folio case, accompanied by a stylus. The image reveals that the phone will offer a special Always-On Display mode when on standby with the folio case. The smartphone doesn’t appear to have a housing slot for the stylus and even the folio case appears to be incapable of housing the stylus. So the stylus will probably be sold separately, however, the potential stylus compatibility adds a lot more to the appeal of the Moto Edge 30 Pro.

Motorola recently launched a refresh of the Moto G Stylus however, the device does leave a lot to be desired when it comes to its specs.

Motorola Edge 30 Pro specifications (expected)

The Motorola Edge 30 Pro may come with a 6.7-inch OLED display with a punch-hole design. It may offer an FHD+ resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and a 576Hz touch sampling rate. It may feature a 60-megapixel front camera and a 50-megapixel (main, with OIS) + 50-megapixel (ultrawide) + 2-megapixel (depth) triple camera unit.

The Edge 30 Pro may come with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of storage. It will be driven by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 mobile platform. It may draw power from a 5,000mAh battery that supports 68W fast charging.

The device is likely to come preinstalled with Android 12 OS and MyUI. At present, there is no information available on its pricing. It is likely to arrive in black and white color options.

According to 91mobiles, the renders have been provided by industry sources.

According to the new renders, the design of the phone including the screen, camera island, and overall stylistic profile will remain the same as the Edge X30. However, the iconic Motorola ‘M’ badge will now be present on the bottom left of the rear panel.

The global version of the Moto Edge 30 Pro has the model number XT2201-4.

Other than these changes, the device is expected to host the same hardware and features as the Edge X30.
