Display Protection (Screen Protector) Corning Gorilla Glass 5 (scratch resistant glass)

The screen size reaches 6.7" inches. With a large display, phone offers a great experience for watching videos, playing games and reading. The best phones today are 6.5'' or more. They have the advantage of a large display area that allows you to see more content than with conventional display sizes. Owing to OLED technology, the display offers a true representation of colours, especially black. The resulting contrast is significantly higher and colours appear more vivid. OLED technology is now part of most smartphones, while LCD displays are becoming a thing of the past in mobile phones. OLED displays also have lower power consumption compared to LCD technology.

Display Resolution of Motorola Edge 20 Pro is 2400 x 1080 pixels. A higher display resolution is a prerequisite for a sharper image. The standard for mid-range phones today is a Full HD resolution of 1920 × 1080 px. Cheaper phones, which usually have a smaller diagonal, have an HD resolution of 1280 × 720 px. Smaller resolutions can only be found in older models. Best phones, on the other hand, have a 4K resolution of 3840 x 2160 px.

The refresh rate is 144 Hz. This value indicates how many times per second display shows new information. Previously, 60 Hz was considered the standard, but today the average frequency for mid-range phones is more like 90 Hz. Modern phones now reach frequencies of around 120 Hz and above. Higher frequencies mean a better user experience when browsing the internet and especially when playing games.

PROCESSOR Motorola Edge 20 Pro
Processor Type (CPU) Qualcomm Snapdragon 870
Clock Speed 2.4 GHz Better than 87 % of phones rated.
Processor Core Qty 8-core Better than 99 % of phones rated.
Graphics System (GPU) Qualcomm ADRENO 650

The processor type of the Motorola Edge 20 Pro is Qualcomm Snapdragon 870. The number of processor cores is 8. It is a number of cores that plays an important role in evaluating the performance of phone as it is responsible for computing operations. Smartphones already commonly have a core count of around 4 to 8. Multi-core processors can perform better and reduce the processing time of a request to a minimum, which is reflected in the responsiveness of the phone, e.g. in the speed of opening applications. Motorola Edge 20 Pro is provided with processor´s frequency of 2.4 GHz. Normally today you will find this value between 1.8 and 2.8 GHz, and the higher the number, the faster the response of the phone. The processor frequency will thus be one of the important parameters if you are looking for a phone capable of managing several requests at once without major problems.

The processor also includes the graphics accelerator Qualcomm ADRENO 650.

MEMORY Motorola Edge 20 Pro
RAM LPDDR5 SDRAM - 12 GB Better than 99 % of phones rated.
Internal Memory Size (Storage Capacity) 256 GB Better than 98 % of phones rated.
Memory Interface UFS 3.1

The phone is provided with an internal memory of 256 GB. Internal storage capacity is often a key parameter, as it determines how many files, photos, apps and more your phone can store. Best phones like this one have 256 GB to 1 TB of memory, which is already enough for even the most demanding geeks who use the phone to create videos, take high-resolution photos and play more demanding games. The downside is that with most phones, you'll have to pay extra for that kind of storage capacity. Fortunately, manufacturers nowadays think of all users and therefore offer phone models with different memory sizes so that everyone can choose what suits them.

Operating memory significantly affects the performance of the entire phone. Motorola Edge 20 Pro has an operating memory of LPDDR5 SDRAM - 12 GB. Phones with less than 4 GB of RAM are better suited for undemanding users who use phone more for basic needs and some essential applications only. But if you are a heavy user, reach for at least 6 to 8 GB of RAM, which is the standard today, or 12 GB for the really demanding ones.

The rear camera of the Motorola Edge 20 Pro is equipped with 3 lenses. A larger number of lenses usually results in better quality photo, as each lens is designed differently: usually as a macro lens, telephoto lens or wide-angle lens. Macro lens is used for great close-ups, telephoto lens is designed for capturing objects in the distance as it often has an optical zoom, and wide-angle lens will take great landscape photos where you need a larger field of view. A high resolution lens alone does not necessarily mean high quality photos. The main lens in this has a resolution of 108 Megapixel. However, if you are looking for perfect photos, in addition to resolution, don't forget to focus on at other parameters such as lens aperture or pixel size. Pixel size is 0.7 μm. Average value is typically around 0.8 μm to 1.8 μm on better mobile phones, and again, the higher the number, the higher the photo quality.

The size of the camera's sensor also influences the final quality of the photos. Motorola Edge 20 Pro´s main lens is designed with a sensor size of 1/1.52". The higher the value after the slash, the higher the resulting photo quality. Luminance is one of the main factors determining the quality of a photograph. Commonly today, this value ranges between F/1.8 and F/2.2. However, best photomobiles have an aperture of up to F/1.2. Value indicates how much light passes through the sensor and the lower it is, the better the quality of the photos. Main lens here is equipped with F/1.9. You should also pay attention to optical zoom, as it is far more important than the digital zoom. Its main advantage is that image does not lose quality or sharpness as you zoom in. Optical zoom in this case is 20x. If you like to take photos of people and portraits, you'll appreciate the facial recognition feature. The camera automatically detects face and focuses on it.

Second camera
The second lens of rear camera is designed as Ultra wide-angle lens. The field of view of second lens reaches 118 degree(s). The resolution reaches size of 8 Megapixel. Pixel size in this case is 1.12 μm. Furthermore, aperture of second lens reaches size of F/2.2.

Third camera
The third lens is designed as Telephoto lens. The resolution of third lens is then 8 Megapixel. The pixel size that significantly affects quality of photo is 1 μm. Finally, the lens also features a lens aperture of F/3.4.

Front camera
The front camera of phone Motorola Edge 20 Pro has one lens. This number of lenses is standard on most smartphones nowadays. The resolution of main lens reaches 32 Megapixel. Again, it should be noted that resolution is not the only factor affecting the quality of the front camera photo. The pixel size itself is 0.7 μm. The aperture of main lens is F/2.25.

A nice bonus here is the facial recognition function.

BATTERY AND CHARGING Motorola Edge 20 Pro
Battery Capacity (Battery Size) 4500 mAh Better than 91 % of phones rated.
Fast Charging Technology TurboPower technology Better than 86 % of phones rated.
Run Time Details Mixed usage: up to 34 hrs

The battery size of Motorola Edge 20 Pro is 4500 mAh. Nevertheless, battery capacity is not the only factor that affects the phone's battery life. For example - the size of the display, the performance of the processor, the use of data functions and, of course, the intensity of use of phone in general all have a significant impact on battery life. Standard for most smartphones today is a battery capacity of around 4500 to 5000 mAH. Phones with this battery size usually guarantee a phone life of at least 1 day. Older or cheaper smartphone models can then reach battery capacities typically around 2500 mAH and below. With this capacity, you may find that if you use your phone heavily, you may need to recharge your phone during the day. You'll also enjoy the fast charging function, which allows for faster power flow and thus up to several times faster charging of the phone.
