Motorola claims that the Edge 30 is the world's slimmest 5G smartphone and India's lightest 5G phone in its segment. This obsession with design has resulted in a phone that measures just 6.79mm in thickness and weighs just 155g. The Motorola Edge 30 succeeds the Motorola Edge 20 (Review) which launched last year at a similar price. From the looks of it, Motorola has clearly prioritised the design of the Edge 30 as one of its main selling points, but has it skimped on other areas in order to achieve it or does the Motorola Edge 30 deliver a good balance of form and function? I put it to the test to find out.
