Motorola One 2020 series could include two impressive phones with 90Hz 'waterfall' displays
Motorola’s high-end and upper mid-range One 2020 phones will share a massive curved screen
LG and ZTE’s recent MWC 2020 cancellations made many people fear Barcelona would be a ghost town later this month when the latest edition of the world’s largest exhibition for the mobile industry is scheduled, but as long as Motorola still plans to unveil its next mid-range and high-end phones on February 23 in the capital city of Catalonia, we have at least this one major thing to look forward to.
Two confusing names, one (almost) waterfall display
In addition to a “true” flagship packing a state-of-the-art Snapdragon 865 SoC, Motorola is also expected to release a “value 5G flagship” with an upper mid-range Snapdragon 765 chipset on deck shortly after a joint formal announcement at the 2020 Mobile World Congress.
On the bright side, the Motorola One 2020 could see daylight on Verizon under the Edge Plus label, which would certainly help the powerhouse stand out from the pack more easily. Of course, if that’s the case, Big Red is likely to release the phone with 5G support, which will only add to the confusion.
Massive batteries and a lot of unanswered questions
As far as specifications are concerned, we still don’t know much about Motorola’s high-end and upper mid-range plans. But what’s currently rumored sounds pretty exciting, starting with the 4,660mAh battery of the Snapdragon 765-powered “Racer” and the colossal 5,170mAh cell inside the Snapdragon 865-based “Burton.”
Lastly, the two 2020 Motorola Ones will obviously run Android 10 out the box with a number of new proprietary tools included. Moto Edge Assistant is apparently an app designed to “customize tap actions on the curved edges”, Moto Gametime will provide “quick access to certain tools and settings to improve your mobile gaming experience”, and finally, Moto Audio is capable of “automatically adjusting” your phone’s audio profile to “best match the current content.” Color us intrigued!
