Motorola Edge 50 Fusion Review: Budget-Friendly Edge 50

This year, compared to last year's Edge 40 series, Motorola has diversified its Edge 50 series pretty well. The company introduced the lineup with the launch of Motorola Edge 50 Pro, starting at Rs 29,999, followed by the launch of Motorola Edge 50 Fusion at Rs 22,999, and now the company has launched Motorola Edge 50 at Rs 27,999 offering stupendous value.

Of the three, the Edge 50 Pro is the most high-end for people with larger budgets. The Motorola Edge 50 Fusion is at the very bottom of the Edge 50 series and missed the marquee features from the other two, which means that it has a tough act to follow immediately after the Edge 50 launched. Is it still though a good place to start for first-time midrange buyers?

Motorola Edge 50 Fusion Design: Plenty to Choose From

Moto's latest, and the last in the Edge 50 lineup, has been introduced in the country riding on the immense popularity of the mid-tier lineup. The new entrant hits the deck with the best in Edge 50 Ultra, as part of the aforementioned tier. While other devices keep one common design language among themselves, differences in material and texture invariably mean they look incredibly different once you place them next to each other.

Physically, it uses the same design as the Edge 50 Pro and the newer Edge 50, featuring rounded corners with a 3D curved-edge display. It comes in at 175g, which makes it lighter compared to the rest due to the lack of a wireless charging coil. In addition to the vegan leather rear panel, that's on top of a solid grip, be it on a table or in hand. The near-flush dual-camera system complements the smooth profile, and a translucent case is environmentally friendly for further safeguarding.

One of the most eye-catching things about the Motorola Edge 50 Fusion is how rugged it is. It carries the IP68 rating, which would protect it from water and dust, enabling it to get past a day at the beach or by the pool. It's lacking, though, in MIL-STD-810H certification coverage in the higher-end models, except in the basic Edge 50 model. Motorola does offer a small shield against water damage: the device can take a freshwater immersion of up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes.

Motorola Edge 50 Fusion Display: Could Have Been Better

The Edge 50 Fusion features a 3D curved edge display. This is essentially for aesthetics since the software cannot interact with the edges. Pretty thin are the borders of the display itself however, they are slightly thicker at the top and still at the bottom. It goes up to 1200 nits of peak brightness and features Aqua Touch from Motorola so it works using a wet hand. The display supports PWM/DC dimming and its high refresh rate of 720Hz is not needed, since the hardware wouldn't run demanding 3D games at maximum performance anyway. The display is not HDR certified, which results in a color banding effect in dimly-lit scenes. Yet, it has Widevine L1 available that would enable full-HD streaming.

US SEC Sues Crypto Company NovaTech Over Alleged Crypto Fraud

On Monday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed a lawsuit against NovaTech, a cryptocurrency firm, and its co-founders, Cynthia and Eddy Petion, accusing them of deceiving investors by raising more than US$650 million from over 200,000 people across the globe.

NovaTech and the Petion allegedly made false promises to their investors, including Cynthia Petion's assurance that their investments would be secure and profitable from the start.

However, the SEC claims that the Petion used the funds primarily to settle debts with earlier investors and to pay out commissions to those who promoted the company while keeping millions for themselves. The investigations revealed that this fraudulent exercise continued for four years up to the time NovaTech collapsed in May 2023.

The SEC also pointed out to the fact that NovaTech tricked victims by tricking their religious beliefs via social media platforms such as Facebook and Telegram, and WhatsApp as well as in Haitian Creole where Cynthia Petion assumed the social and religious role of a 'Reverend' and claimed that NovaTech was a divine creation.
