About the Motorola Edge 40 Pro

The Motorola Edge 40 Pro was the brand's most complete flagship when it launched in 2023, pairing the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 with a feature set that left very few boxes unticked. Its 6.67-inch pOLED display pushes the refresh rate to an extraordinary 165Hz, the highest in Motorola's lineup at the time, delivering supremely fluid scrolling and gaming. Motorola matched the display with serious substance: IP68 water resistance, Gorilla Glass Victus protection on front and back, and a robust aluminium frame that feels genuinely premium in hand. The 50MP main camera uses a large 1/1.5-inch sensor for excellent light capture, complemented by a 50MP ultrawide and 12MP 2x telephoto for versatile shooting across scenarios. Charging is a standout, with 125W wired TurboPower filling the 4,600mAh battery in roughly 20 minutes, plus 15W wireless charging for convenience. With a 60MP selfie camera, Dolby Vision video recording, and stereo speakers, the Edge 40 Pro delivers a genuine flagship experience that competes directly with Samsung and Apple's best, often at a notably lower price.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Motorola Edge 40 Pro worth buying?
Yes, the Edge 40 Pro remains a strong performer thanks to its Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, which still handles demanding games and multitasking with ease. The 125W charging, IP68 durability, and versatile triple camera make it a well-rounded flagship. Its main limitation in 2026 is that software updates are winding down, so buyers should weigh this against the attractive prices now available.
How good is the Motorola Edge 40 Pro camera?
The 50MP main camera with its large 1/1.5-inch sensor captures impressive detail and handles low light very well. The 50MP ultrawide adds macro capability, and the 12MP 2x telephoto provides useful zoom without heavy quality loss. The 60MP front camera is outstanding for selfies and video calls, making this one of the more complete camera systems in Motorola's range.
Does the Motorola Edge 40 Pro have wireless charging?
Yes, the Edge 40 Pro supports 15W wireless charging alongside its rapid 125W wired charging. While the wireless speed is modest, it provides convenient overnight or desk-based charging. Reverse wireless charging is not available on this model.
Is the Motorola Edge 40 Pro waterproof?
Yes, the Edge 40 Pro has a full IP68 rating, protecting it against submersion in up to 1.5 metres of water for 30 minutes. Combined with Gorilla Glass Victus on both front and back, and a sturdy aluminium frame, it is built to handle everyday knocks and splashes with confidence.
How fast does the Motorola Edge 40 Pro charge?
The Edge 40 Pro supports 125W TurboPower wired charging, which can fill the 4,600mAh battery from empty to full in approximately 20 minutes. A compatible charger is included in the box. This remains one of the fastest charging speeds available in any UK-sold smartphone.
How does the Motorola Edge 40 Pro compare to the Edge 30 Ultra?
The Edge 40 Pro upgrades durability significantly with IP68 versus IP52, adds Gorilla Glass Victus, and uses the more efficient Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 over the 8+ Gen 1. The Edge 30 Ultra counters with a higher-resolution 200MP main camera versus 50MP and a marginally larger battery. For everyday reliability and longevity, the Edge 40 Pro is the stronger choice.

Based on panel type (LTPO is the modern flagship gold standard), resolution, refresh rate, peak brightness, screen size, and HDR10+ / Dolby Vision support. Marketing peak-brightness claims are capped at 3500 nits to prevent inflation.

Based on main-sensor size (1-inch / 1/1.3" beats 1/2.0"), telephoto reach (periscope > 5x > 3x optical), image processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra, Honor Magic Pro, Xiaomi Ultra), pro video features (ProRes, Apple Log, Dolby Vision), camera-partnership branding (Leica, Hasselblad, Zeiss) and OIS. Older flagships are de-rated since image processing pipelines have advanced significantly each generation. Megapixel count is deliberately downweighted — it correlates poorly with real-world camera quality. Where DXOMARK has lab-tested the phone, its measured score replaces this estimate.

Based on battery capacity (mAh) adjusted for platform efficiency calibrated against NotebookCheck, Tom's Guide, GSMArena and CNET reviewer tests. Apple A-series gets +45% (iOS process freezing + LTPO 1Hz + tuned panels make iPhone Pro Max outlast many 6500+ mAh Android phones in measured tests). Top Snapdragon / Dimensity flagships get +15%, budget chipsets are penalised −15% to −25% to reflect less efficient displays and looser background limits. Charging speed is excluded — see the separate Fast charging tag for that.
