* TOP Battery Endurance* TOP Screen* TOP Protection* TOP Desktop Replacement
EDITORIAL: Motorola keeps things interesting with never ending variations of its Edge phones. The Edge 60 gen featured 6 variants (s, Neo, Pro, Fusion, vanilla and Stylus). Here the first ever "Max" model, unlike anything we've ever seen. It is a big phone with good performance and battery life and photo performance that's "reliable" at best. Motorola sets itself apart by frequently adding military standard drop protection to its phones, as is the case here. The screen is top-tier and along with battery life provides for a great experience.

EDITORIAL: Eagerly anticipated Vivo X200 Ultra came with the top hardware and very mature photo and video processing. It improved on the amazing X200 Pro with UFS 4.1, higher pixel density screen, OIS PDAF on all of its back lenses, AF selfie and a dedicated iPhone-like photo hardware slider. An amazing smartphone if you don't care for its big size and heft. It also has an extensive optional camera accessories package that adds controls, battery, and telephoto skills.
