Key specs
Critic consensus
“The Motorola Edge 40 Neo offers good value for its money. Especially its fast storage and bright screen are real highlights.”
“The Edge 40 Neo is no longer the step down from the baseline that the 30 Neo was. It's got the camera system of the Edge 40 proper (okay, almost), a capable chipset, and the IP68 rating, which has suddenly turned into a universal Moto Edge feature. It's not all roses though, and the insecure video stabilization that we saw on the Edge 40 is now on the Neo as well, and the merely okayish update policy isn't scoring it any points either. But what's the biggest red flag here is the substandard battery life - we shouldn't have to settle for 'decent', when the norm is 'very good'.”
“With an unusually premium design, a great screen, a capable camera and decent performance, the Motorola Edge 40 Neo is certainly the best Neo phone yet. It could also be the best sub-£300 smartphone on the market right now.”
“The Motorola Edge 40 Neo shows up its non-Neo sibling with a lower price, improved specs and very few downgrades, but it certainly has its share of issues with unimpressive cameras and touch issues with the curved-edge display. Still, its attractive looks, fast charging and good-looking display may make up for these shortcomings.”
