Why you should buy the Motorola Edge Plus 2023

Published approximately two years ago, our Motorola Edge Plus 2023 review carried the subtitle “a Pixel 7 Pro and Galaxy S23 Killer” and had a nearly perfect review score. The phone’s 2400 x 1080 pixel OLED screen was praised highly, especially considering its up-to 165Hz refresh rate that still makes it smoother than many of today’s best phones. It’s two-day battery life was good then and good now, as well. Moreover, the phone just felt good to hold and its velvety back “attracts virtually zero fingerprints.” The phone will look and feel fresh for the long term. Ultimately, the Motorola Edge Plus 2023 is considered to be better than the Pixel 7 Pro and Samsung Galaxy S23 of its time, but has stood up remarkably to the test of time and can be a great pickup today as well.

This is an excellent chance to get a phone that was ahead of its time for a price that’s unbeatable today. The Motorola Edge Plus 2023 at $400 (half of its $800 normal price point) is one of the hottest smartphone deals going on right now, and a perfect reward for those that wait. Tap the button below and order now to secure the deal for yourself before it is gone. You don’t want to wait and miss a great deal like this.

Arm’s new chip platform wants to make your phone smarter and your games prettier
Your next phone might get an AI brain boost and a graphics glow up, together.
Arm-CSS-for-Mobile-2-feature

Phones have quietly gone from running one AI feature at a time to juggling entire AI agents that plan, reason, and act on your behalf. That shift needs serious horsepower, and Arm thinks it has cracked the formula with its newly announced CSS for Mobile 2 platform.

What's new on the graphics side?

Xiaomi 18 Fold has me questioning what a compact phone should look like, or even cost
I love compact phones, but these wide foldables have me rethinking the whole concept now
Xiaomi 18 Fold at IFA 2026

The best part of my job is the access to some of the coolest gadgets, especially the latest and greatest smartphones. Even then, I often found myself gravitating towards compact phones. At this point, I'd even skip a premium foldable just so I could have something a little more handy.

But every now and then, a larger phone would have this one feature or show me why a bigger phone is still so popular. I also want to play games, watch videos, and occasionally keep two apps open without fighting for every inch of screen space. A smaller phone makes many parts of my life easier, but the compromises aren't nonexistent. Simply making the phone wider may solve those problems, but eventually it becomes harder to handle again.

Xiaomi’s latest foldable has me convinced this design is here to stay
The Xiaomi 18 Fold pairs an unusual wider design with a surprisingly large battery, homegrown silicon, and flagship cameras, all packed into a 219-gram body.
Electronics, Mobile Phone, Phone

September is becoming a very interesting month for foldable phones, and Xiaomi has just added another to the pile. The Xiaomi 18 Fold has launched in China with a shorter, wider shape that looks a little like a passport when closed. It’s quite a departure from the tall and narrow book-style foldables we’ve become used to, but Xiaomi isn't alone in thinking this might be the way forward.

Samsung already went down a similar road with the Galaxy Z Fold 8 in July, giving it a shorter, wider footprint and a 4:3 display when unfolded. Apple is expected to reveal its first foldable iPhone on September 9 — just two days after Xiaomi's launch — and rumors have repeatedly pointed toward a similar passport-style design. Then there's Huawei, which launched the Mate XT 2 today as well, although it is taking things in an entirely different direction with a tri-fold design.
