      s22 has a better screen and probably longer update support.

      If you can grab it at 300 bucks i dont think there is a better phone on the market at that price point

        2026 will be the last year of support for the s22. The Motorola will have OS/security support until 2029.

      S22 meant to have sub par battery life if that's important to you. Mentioned in several reviews.

    Poor graphical performance due to 1220p screen . GPU struggles a lot 1080p would have better. Personally used it and found performance is worse than G54 which is ozbargain‘s favourite phone due to performance/price ratio.

    • sputzy on 17/11/2024 - 18:00

      I ordered from that deal, and received mine in a few days, so unsure what may have happened with yours

      • OverThinker on 17/11/2024 - 18:02

        I called they said they were out of the colour I ordered they changed to the yellow/gold colour which was in stock still no postage….

        Edit, are you happy with it? I was hopeful of quick postage due to my current phone not working on Optus due to the 3G shutdown.

        • sputzy on 17/11/2024 - 18:07

          Ah ok, that's probably it then. I ordered the red, so perhaps it's less in demand.

          • Zonty on 18/11/2024 - 00:13

            @sputzy: Very dodgy company. Using your money to save or earn interest till you request refund.

            Also how come they put offer again when they haven't fulfilled old order?

            • sputzy on 18/11/2024 - 16:39

              @Zonty: I don't think I'll need to request a refund considering I received my phone only a few days after ordering.

        • mystarey on 17/11/2024 - 19:50

          I ordered the Latte one all along and it hasn't been posted either. "Label created by sender" on Tuesday and nothing since then.

          That one's for my dad though - I already bought the Poinciana for myself a month or so ago and have been generally pleased with it. My only two quibbles is that the squared off sides means it's less comfortable to hold than a phone with rounded-off edges, and the included case is awful and not worth using.

          • OverThinker on 17/11/2024 - 21:58

            @mystarey: Appreciate the reply,
            Shame about the included case, hopefully there will be many on the market soon. I was hoping the squared off sides would make it more grippy to hold, its the reason I put cases on in the past. If they ever post the darn thing I'll see for myself.

            I didn't receive a "Label created by sender" message just a "Once your package ships we will send you a tracking number" at this point could be best to cancel and buy from JB.

              +2

              @OverThinker: I've been using the phone caseless without incident, the "vegan leather" back is very nice to hold and zero risk of it slipping out of my hands. I'm not even going to bother looking for a case now, happy to risk using it as-is, especially given the mil-spec testing and IP68 protection. My previous phone was a Sony Xperia 10 ii, and that phone with its glass back was almost unusable without a case.

              The frame being plastic instead of aluminium (as it is on the vanilla Edge 50) and the glass being only Gorilla Glass 3 is a little below average in terms of specs, but it shouldn't matter for my use case.

              • sputzy on 18/11/2024 - 16:48

                @mystarey: I concur, the textured back makes it far easier for me to grip when compared with my old S21. And I find the plastic frame also provides me with slightly more texture to hold onto the phone when compared with the smoothed aluminium of the S21.

                I never would have though about using my old phone without a case, but I'm much more confident with the Edge 50 Neo (I have already added a screen protector though).

    I've had this phone for a few days and am enjoying it so far.

    It's pretty lightweight, looks great (if you're into the colours, I got the red), and is generally snappy so far.
    I'm coming from an S21 and have had Samsungs for the past 5 or so years, so there's a slight learning curve for me to get used to the stock experience. Battery life so far seems better than the S21.

    I haven't had a chance to properly test everything yet, but everything seems to be pretty decent so far, including the cameras (haven't installed gcam yet which someone else recommended).

    For the price I think it's a steal, especially if like me you plan to keep it for as long as it receives support. I'm also half hoping due to the price, there'll be a decent community of people who can port LineageOS or equivalent rom well after Lenovo stops providing updates

          Sounds like you're listening to commercial stations.
          FM radio is amazing. If not for stations like 4ZZZ I'd never hear the latest stuff from bands that don't manage to stock their CD's locally.

          One good example was when I was listening to the ChipTune show, and heard of MasterBootRecord.

      And there's an ongoing gift card deal at Big W right now, so that works out nicely for people who want to take the punt.

      Interesting though that JB don't stock the Latte colour, whereas Mobileciti are actively switching people to it. From a selfish regret-minimisationb perspective, I'm quietly glad JB don't stock it, as it's the one I ordered last week. :P

    • naturaldecay on 17/11/2024 - 21:18

      Maybe this one is 10 or 20% better? If you want a 2x better sort of deal, you'd need to spend closer to 1K. I recently replaced my old phone with a G84, i find it to be blazing fast, and i'm a "power user".

      I have too many apps and it is getting a bit slow now.

      Too many apps don't matter, but it's getting slower because more unnecessary apps run in the background all day. We don't need bank apps, food delivery apps, shopping apps, uber etc. to run all day in the background.

      Install "Hibernator" app to hibernate these apps. Also use "SD Maid" app to clean rubbish files, app cache etc. then your phone will run smoothly and feel faster. Better if you can buy "SD Maid Pro" (paid version) to automate the app cache cleaning. Hibernator and SD Maid Pro are necessary in any android phone in my opinion. Also adblocker app like Adguard (paid) or NextDNS (free for personal use). Ads and trackers in running apps and system (Samsung tracker too) could slow down the phone and eat battery life. Also try to change the phone Settings to disable "background data" for apps that don't need to run all day in the background.

      Motorola Edge 50 Neo is new. Not sure how good is the Mediatek processor as I prefer Snapdragon processor. I have Moto G54, but I wish it uses Snapdragon processor.

      'Bloatware' depending on what you mean is pretty minimal.

      They do pre-install some apps (Booking.com, LinkedIn, etc), but these can be easily uninstalled.

      There are a few Motorola apps that can only be disabled, but these more compliment the stock Android experience, rather than replacing anything.
      Imagine a pixel look and feel, but with some added benefits such as customising movements to perform certain actions (twisting the phone to open the camera), or to make minor adjustments to the theme (font, colour, etc.).

    People considering Samsung Galaxy S22 or S23 or S23 FE seem to forget that this is a brand new phone with 2-year warranty, 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, excellent battery and it only costs $397. It comes with an ultra fast charger and was only released a couple of months ago with OS support all the way to 2029 or Android 19.

    S22 was released in Feb 2022 with OS support to 2026 or Android 16.

    S23 was released in Feb 2023 with OS support to 2027 or Android 17.

    S23 FE was released in Oct 203 with OS support to 2027 or Android 17.

    Ask yourself these questions - brand new? how much? warranty? charger? how's the battery? how much RAM and storage? how much do you want to pay? $400? $500? $600? $1200? It's not that hard to work it out.

    The Neo can easily last six years with an annual cost of $67.

    • garage sale on 18/11/2024 - 11:49

      Have the Moto 50G edge fusion, but grabbed the Neo on this deal last night for the 2nd SIM (separate phones for work and play) , the Neo seems a great deal, what would the battery be like in 4 years ? hard to tell and what will be new models then BUT updates for 5 years is a bonus if you are happy with the battery life in 4 years time … maybe then Apple will have an affordable model ?

          Every person it's different right, 4G and 5G varies depending on your locale. I don't subscribe to the bad reception=issue with your phone. The network needs to up the power then.

    I received mine today from the previous promo. A little slow to dispatch but no complaints.

    How long will the Battery survive being charged at 68w? Probs kill it just outside of warranty…

      use 30w charger, these 68w things are great if phone is dead and you want to head out the door, but not ideal in the long term. my oppo does a high charge and then tapers off but that high charge is till it gets to about 80% and they recommend don’t go below 20% before a charge …. gentle charge is always good if you have the time.
