Earlier this week, Motorola unveiled the Signature \u2013 the first in a new line of premium phones that sits above the Edge series. That one is still on pre-order, but you can already see it in stores.<\/p>\n
The Motorola Signature with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, 16GB of RAM and 512GB storage costs \u20ac1,000. It\u2019s a slender 7mm phone that is fairly light at 186g without compromising the battery \u2013 5,200mAh is more than you get from Samsung, Apple and Google, though not as much as Chinese brands are offering. The phone has a large 50MP sensor in the main camera (1\/1.28\u201d LYT-828), a 50MP 3x\/71mm telephoto, 50MP ultra-wide and 50MP selfie cameras. Motorola will deliver 7 OS updates and the current software already has the company\u2019s desktop mode.<\/p>\n

At this price, the Signature costs a bit more than a OnePlus 15. Comparing<\/a> the two, we see that the OnePlus will be faster (Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5) and has a bigger battery (7,300mAh). That said, the phone measures 8.1mm thick and weighs 211g. However, its cameras have smaller sensors: the 50MP main sensor is 1\/1.56\u201d (vs. 1\/1.28\u201d), the 50MP 3.5x\/80mm periscope is 1\/2.76\u201d (vs. 1\/1.95\u201d) and the 50MP 116\u00b0 ultra-wide is 1\/2.88\u201d (vs. 122\u00b0 1\/2.76\u201d).<\/p>\n The Motorola Edge 70 is a more affordable device, though it\u2019s not exactly cheap. It looks similar enough to the Signature while being even slimmer (6mm) and lighter (159g) at the cost of some battery capacity (4,800mAh). This one has a mid-range Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset and an LTPS display (vs. LTPO on the Signature and OnePlus). The cameras are more basic too \u2013 the 50MP main has a 1\/1.56\u201d sensor and there\u2019s no telephoto module.<\/p>\n The Poco F8 Ultra should also be considered when looking at the Motorola Signature. It has the faster chipset (Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5) and a bigger battery (6,500mAh). It also has a 50MP large sensor in the main camera (1\/1.31\u201d), which is joined by a 5x\/115mm periscope (50MP 1\/2.76\u201d) and a 102\u00b0 ultra-wide (50MP, 1\/2.88\u201d).<\/p>\n Also new this week are the Poco M8 and M8 Pro. The vanilla model has a 6.77\u201d display (12-bit, 120Hz OLED) and a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 plus expandable storage. It has a 5,520mAh battery with 45W wired-only charging.<\/p>\n The Poco M8 Pro upgrades to a 6.83\u201d Dolby Vision display with a higher pixel count and a Snapdragon 7s Gen 4. The main camera is significantly better than that of its sibling \u2013 a 50MP 1\/1.55\u201d sensor with OIS vs. 50MP 1\/2.88\u201d sensor (no OIS). And there\u2019s an ultra-wide camera too, even if it\u2019s only an 8MP unit. The phone also boasts a larger 6,500mAh battery with faster 100W charging.<\/p>\n While you\u2019re at it, have a look at the Poco X7 Pro. It has a smaller 6.67\u201d display, but it still offers Dolby Vision. The Dimensity 8400 Ultra chipset is faster than the 7s Gen 4, especially in graphics performance. What you lose with the X7 Pro is the larger sensor in the main camera (this one is only 1\/1.95\u201d), but the battery is close enough at 6,000mAh capacity and 90W charging. Not bad, considering that this phone is \u20ac75 cheaper (looking at the 512GB versions).<\/p>\n The Google Pixel 10 has a big discount at the moment and it even comes with a free Pixelsnap charger \u2013 this will give you a jump start on buying magnetic accessories.<\/p>\n While the Xiaomi Redmi Note 15 trio was announced in mid-December, two of its members only launched this week. There are no discounts yet, but these are worth keeping an eye on.<\/p>\n With the Redmi Note 15 Pro+, you are mostly paying for the chipset (Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 vs. Dimensity 7400 Ultra) and battery (6,500mAh\/100W vs. 6,580mAh\/45W) compared to the regular Redmi Note 15 Pro. Both phones have 6.83\u201d displays, plus 200MP main and 8MP ultra-wide cameras.<\/p>\n The Redmi Note 15 gets a smaller 6.77\u201d display with a lower resolution (1080p+ vs. 1280p+), a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chipset, 108MP main camera and a smaller 5,520mAh battery with 45W charging.<\/p>\n
