EDITORIAL: Motorola Edge 60 is a phone of extremes. With a great build, lovely colors and grip, top protection against drops and elements, excellent screen, SDmemory slot and a capable desktop replacement - there is so much to love here. The Dimensity 7300 performance is smooth, 68W charging is sub-60min. But the Battery endurance is just 1-day, newly designed (50MP OIS main + 10MP OIS tele + 12MP ultrawide, all PDAF) main camera output is inconsistent (while capable of some great pics), there is no AF on a very good selfie and only 3 years of OS updates. Let's hope software updates can improve the very promising main camera output.
Both phones here were scored by me, using the same ten categories, with no ads, sponsorships, or manufacturer relationships — this comparison is as objective and honest as it gets.
