The Motorola Edge is comparable to a high-end phone and features many of the same bells and whistles, but at a much lower retail price of $550. That’s extremely budget friendly already, but with this incredible deal you can now score a 256GB Motorola Edge for 45% off, its lowest price ever.
Amazon has knocked the price of this phone down by $250, bringing it to just $300. The phone is unlocked, so if you’re considering giving this to someone as a holiday gift but are not sure of their phone plans, no worries. Just remember that Amazon is known for its limited-time offers and fluctuating deals, so we suggest acting fast if you want to secure a Motorola Edge at this price.
The phone includes a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7S Gen 2 processor. You can get a full day’s charge in 15 minutes when using a charging cable that supports 68-watt fast charging. The phone also has a 6.6-inch OLED display that lets you enjoy your favorite content when you’re on the go.

In his review, CNET’s Mike Sorrentino pointed out that this year’s Motorola Edge has a larger 5,000-mAh battery, an upgrade over last year’s model that allows the phone to last longer on a single charge without compromising performance. Plus, Motorola included a handy Quick Button on the side of the phone that lets you find your favorite apps easily. If you love photography and video, you’ll love the 50-megapixel main camera, 13-megapixel ultrawide camera and 32-megapixel front-facing cameras.
