Motorola Edge pre-orders now available with special $500 price
What you need to know
- Pre-orders for the Motorola Edge are now open.
- Motorola's offering a special $500 introduction price — $200 off the phone's MSRP.
- It's available at Amazon, Best Buy, B&H, and Motorola's website.
The journey to the Motorola Edge has been one that's required a lot of patience. Motorola unveiled the value flagship all the way back in April, and at the end of June, confirmed its retail price of $700. We were left waiting for an actual release date, and today, Motorola has given us just that.
Pre-orders for the Motorola Edge are open right now, and if you act fast, you can buy the phone for $200 less than what it normally costs. Motorola's selling the Edge for just $500 during this pre-order phase, almost making it worthy of an insta-buy considering the specs it's bringing to the table.
If you need a little refresher, the Motorola Edge is equipped with a 6.7-inch OLED display. You get a Full HD+ resolution and 90Hz refresh rate, along with curved edges that flow over the sides of the phone. There are three cameras on the back (64MP primary, 16MP ultra-wide, 8MP telephoto), USB-C charging, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and support for 5G connectivity on sub-6 networks.
Under the hood, the Motorola Edge has the Snapdragon 765 chipset, 6GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, and a 4,500 mAh battery. NFC is also available for Google Pay support, unlike all of Motorola's Moto G handsets.
The Motorola Edge is available as a universally unlocked phone for all major carriers in the U.S., and you can pick it up at Amazon, Best Buy, B&H, and Motorola's official website. Regular sales begin on July 31, and when that day comes, the $200 discount will likely disappear. In other words, if you're interested in getting the Edge, now's the time to act.
It's finally here
Motorola's value flagship costs even less
It's been a long time coming, but you can finally go out and pre-order the Motorola Edge! The phone has a gorgeous design, impressive specs, and is sold at a very reasonable retail price. For a limited time, Motorola is knocking a couple hundred dollars off — making it an insane deal you don't want to miss.
