Deal | Budget-friendly Motorola Edge smartphone gets enormous price cut on Amazon

A current deal for the well-made Google Pixel 8 is certainly worth consideration for smartphone buyers with a budget of roughly $500. Fortunately, frugal shoppers who can only spend less than half as much are also in luck as an ongoing Amazon sale for the Motorola Edge also offers an excellent bang for the buck.

More specifically, the leading online retailer is now selling the 2022 version of the Motorola Edge for just $209 including free shipping. This is Amazon's best offer ever for the 6.6-inch Android smartphone according to Camelcamelcamel's price history. This deal applies to the model variant with 6GB RAM and 128GB mass storage, which is not expandable via microSD.

This sale constitutes a price drop of more than 50 percent in comparison to Motorola's original list price for the Edge. In addition to the reasonable amount of memory, the phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1050 processor and comes with a decent 6.6-inch OLED display with Full-HD resolution as well as a very smooth refresh rate of 144Hz. The 5,000-mAh battery is also adequately sized, but there is no 3.5mm jack for fans of wired headphones.

Most importantly, the smartphone is factory unlocked and is compatible with all three major mobile networks in the US. Last but not least, new owners of this affordable handset can look forward to the upcoming Android 14 update, which will likely be released later this year and will probably be the final major OS upgrade for this device. In consideration of the very low price point, this deal might also be worth a look for parents who are looking for a cheap phone for their kids.
