Motorola Edge 60 Review: A Budget Phone That Doesn’t Know It’s Budget
Let’s face it, the mid-range phone market is full of devices trying to pretend they’re premium. But after spending a month with the Motorola Edge 60, this one might actually pull it off.
It’s not pretending. It’s just quietly confident.
Design & Display: Sleek, Slim, Surprisingly Classy
Right out of the box, the Edge 60 feels lighter and slimmer than expected. The vegan leather back gives it that “I paid more than I actually did” vibe, while the 6.7-inch pOLED display is a beauty, sharp, vivid and ridiculously smooth at 144Hz. You’ll struggle to find another display this good.
And yes, it’s IP68 rated. So it’s not afraid of a little water.
Performance: Snappy With Zero Fuss
The Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chip isn’t flagship, but it’s no slouch either. Paired with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, apps open fast, multitasking is seamless, and even gaming holds up well. Genshin Impact? Handled. Multiple Chrome tabs and Spotify running in the background? Smooth.
This is mid-range done right, no lags, no drama.
Cameras: Not Just “Good Enough”
The 50MP main camera (with OIS) is more than just decent. Daylight shots are crisp, colors are natural, and dynamic range is well-handled. The ultrawide camera holds up too, though it’s not mind-blowing. But where the Edge 60 surprises is video, solid stabilization, 4K support and snappy autofocus. Front cam? Another 50MP, and yes, it’s Instagram-ready.
Battery Life: Reliable All Day
The 4,400mAh battery isn’t huge on paper, but it’s optimized well. Easily lasts a full day with mixed use, and when it’s low, the 68W fast charging kicks in like a superhero, full charge in under 45 minutes. No wireless charging, though. Can’t have it all, right?
Software: Close to Stock, and That’s a Good Thing
Runs on Android 14 with Motorola’s minimal skin. Clean, smooth, and bloat-free. Just how we like it. You get some useful Moto gestures, no spammy notifications, and it’ll get two major Android updates with three years of security patches.
Final Verdict: A Flagship Feel Without the Flagship Price
The Motorola Edge 60 doesn’t just check boxes. It quietly redefines what you can expect from a phone that costs less than half the big names. Great screen, solid camera, reliable performance, and fast charging, it covers all bases without cutting obvious corners.
If you want a phone that feels flagship without blowing your budget, the Edge 60 is it.
