Here's our take on the Motorola Edge 30 Fusion smartphone - priced in India at Rs 42,999.

The Motorola Edge 30 Fusion is an interesting offering as it comes with a slightly older, yet flagship-level chipset and design similar to its elder sibling the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra (review). The lattero by the way is the world’s first smartphone with a 200MP camera. The Edge 30 Fusion rocks a 144Hz refresh rate screen, 50MP camera, and 68W fast charging solution. The handset is priced in India north of Rs 40,000, which puts it up against some of the popular smartphones in the segment, including the Google Pixel 6a (review), iQOO 9 (review), and Realme GT Neo 3 5G 150W (review). Can the Motorola Edge 30 Fusion stand up to its competition? Let’s find out in this review:

The Motorola Edge 30 Fusion comes across as a premium mid-range offering from the brand that does not fall short of fantastic at least in the design, display, and performance departments. What’s more, the handset has a clean and minimalistic UI. However, buyers eyeing the device will have to settle for average battery life, and limited RAM and storage.

The Motorola Edge 30 Fusion is priced in India at Rs 42,999, but with an inaugural discount of Rs 3,000, the handset can be yours at Rs 39,999. Should you buy it? If you value a good design with some great hardware, then the Motorola Edge 30 Fusion is worth buying. True, the phone lacks the expandable storage option and has to work on its battery life, skin tones, and faulty touches on the curved screen, among other things. But, the bottom line is that the Motorola Edge 30 Fusion is a capable device that can give its competitors a run for their money. The handset can handle almost everything thrown at it and still look elegant. The phone also offers a reliable camera setup, a gorgeous screen to look at, fast charging solution, and impressive stereo speakers. Furthermore, the device’s software is closer to stock Android and eligible for two years of OS updates.

So, if you are in the market looking for a premium mid-range device, the Motorola Edge 30 Fusion is a worthy option.
