Edge 50 Neo: A compact 6.4" Pantone-tuned phone with telephoto and wireless charging.

SpecEagle Editorial·Sep 2024·$400·Score 75/100

Edge 50 Neo is a rare small phone done right: a 3× telephoto, IP68, wireless charging and a five-year update pledge in a 171 g body. The modest battery and SoC are the trade-offs of the compact ambition.
