EDITORIAL: Honor improved it's midrange offering with a (last year top) flagship chip, a great screen, a 200MP main camera and a 6 year long support for OS updates. Both main and telephoto cameras produce great shots in all conditions. A 2nd (FOV) lense on the front makes up for lack of AF on a 50MP selfie and also delivers iPhone-like face unlock. What a shame that there is no video out from the very slow USB-C port.
PROs
excellent SD 8 Gen 3 performance, >30hr life from a 5300mAh Si/C battery with sub-40min 100W (50W wireless) charging, excellent pics from a 200MP OIS main + 50MP OIS tele + 12MP ultrawide (all PDAF) back cameras, excellent 50MP selfie with a FOV second lens and 6 years of OS updates
CONs
slow USB-C port, no video out, memory expansion or desktop replacement functionality

EDITORIAL: Edge is Motorola's top line and the Edge 70 is a better phone then it's predecessor despite loosing the periscope telephoto lens and the expandable memory slot. What it gained is more important: metal frame, a better processor, better main and ultrawide shooters, a better selfie and longer OS update support. Edge is also only 6mm thick so it is in direct competition with iPhone Air and Samsung Galaxy Edge. Excellent build, attractive design, great screen, top protection against the elements and excellent Android version with some desktop replacement functionality.
PROs
great design and build, relatively compact at 74mm wide, good SD 7 Gen 4 performance with UFS 3.1, fast sub-50min 68W wired (15W wireless) charging, >1400nits bright 450ppi P-OLED screen with HDR10+. IP69 protection with MIL-STD-810H protection, reliable photos from 50MP 24mm OIS PDAF main + 50MP 12mm PDAF ultrawide back cameras, very good imaging from 50MP 21mm selfie, good video recording, up to 4 years of stable Moto OS updates and some desktop replacement functionality.
CONs
24hr battery endurance from a smallish 4800mAh Si-C diode battery, low PWM dimming will bother some users, no telephoto lens, no AF on selfie, gone is the SDmemory, slow USB-C 2.0 port with no Display Port tech (but there is wireless screen mirroring), pricy compared to last model
