Good deal – The Motorola Moto Edge 20 Lite “4-star” smartphone at €225.60 (-34%)

After testing (and approving) the Moto Edge 20 and Edge 20 Pro, it’s the Lite version’s turn to go through our labs. The opportunity to see if this more affordable model retains the same qualities as its big brothers.

The Motorola Moto Edge 20 Lite is a 5G smartphone that does its job well. We particularly appreciate its great autonomy, its multitasking capacities and the fluidity of its screen on a daily basis. On the other hand, it is limited for the game and sins a little on the photo segment. It will struggle to win against the fierce competition present in its price segment, often equipped with more efficient chips. But if you’re looking for a mid-range 5G device and endurance comes first, it might be for you.

Strong points

• Very good autonomy.
• Very nice screen once calibrated.
• Efficient multitasking SoC.

Weak points

• No waterproof certification.
• Not really made for playing.
• Takes a while to recharge.
• Fairly average photo section.

NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).

Alternatively

Like many other smartphones of 2022, the Samsung Galaxy A33 5G has seen its price increase, but this inflation is really felt on the technical sheet. We particularly appreciate the design borrowed from the Galaxy A53, which allows you to take advantage of a particularly welcome IP67 certification. This terminal also swaps the LCD screen of its predecessor for a much more pleasant AMOLED panel on a daily basis. Last but not least, its main sensor does well in bright environments. Its general power and its autonomy are however a little limited, but unless you want to indulge in video games, this should not weigh too much on a daily basis. It is therefore an affordable and controlled device, which could even overshadow its big brother.
