The Motorola Edge 30 Pro was released for the Chinese market last December, under the moniker Edge X30. It now appears the global version is set to be released next month in March, with Motorola set to officially unveil the device on 24th February.

A recent retailer image appears to show the Motorola Edge 30 Pro priced at 500 Euros, which is around £420. This would make the flagship device from Motorola the cheapest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 phone, significantly undercutting the UK market.

For reference, the Samsung Galaxy S22 with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip is priced at £769, which is £349 more expensive compared to the rumoured European pricing for the Motorola Edge 30 Pro.

Despite the low price, Motorola do not appear to be cutting corners. The Motorola Edge 30 Pro will feature a huge 6.7 inch OLED display, with 1080 x 2400 pixels.

As for the camera, there are dual 50MP shooters, with an additional 2MP depth camera, and a 60MP selfie camera. The Chinese market is soon expected to see an additional model with an under-display camera, using the same 60MP sensor - unfortunately, we haven’t heard any news regarding this model being released in the UK.

There’s also a large 5000mAh battery, which is the same size from the competing OnePlus 10 Pro.
