Design and display
+
The Moto Edge 40 Neo follows the same design language as its older sibling, the Edge 40. The device showcases a luxurious vegan leather back, complemented by gently curved edges and a sleek frame. Despite its appearance, it's worth noting that the frame is constructed from plastic. However, this material choice doesn't compromise the handset's durability. An outstanding feature of the device is its IP68 water and dust resistance certification, a unique feature within its segment.

Cameras
+
The Motorola Edge 40 Neo also share its similarities with the Edge 40 in the camera department. The handset sports a dual rear camera setup, featuring a 50MP main sensor with OIS and a 112-degree field of view (FoV) 13MP ultra-wide lens. It is a good camera setup to boast about in favourable lighting conditions. Both primary and ultra-wide cameras offer quick auto-focus and shutter speed, and the images that you get are rich in detail. The colours, however, may appear somewhat over-processed, diverging from the actual scenery.

Performance and software
+
At the core of the Motorola Edge 40 Neo lies MediaTek Dimensity 7030 SoC. This new 6nm mid-range SoC is 5G-capable and comes with two Cortex-A78 cores and six efficiency Cortex-A55 cores. The chipset ensures the smartphone delivers respectable performance in real-world and synthetic benchmark tests.

Battery and charging speeds
+
The Motorola Edge 40 Neo is equipped with a 5,000mAh battery, providing ample power to last at least a day between charges. With moderate usage, I consistently achieved a little over six hours of screen-on-time on this device, which is decent. In the PCMark battery test, the handset scored 8 hours 13 minutes, which is low for its standard.
