Fantastic photos with a cutting edge camera system
With a 50MP hi-res camera system that includes the widest aperture available in a smartphone (f/1.4), the motorola edge 40 captures beautiful, detailed photos.

– Faster capture speeds to effortlessly freeze action, making candid photos as accurate as possible
Plus, the Ambient Light Sensor immediately sets exposure so photographers don’t have to worry about missing a fleeting moment when opening their camera. There’s also instant all-pixel focus for more accurate performance in any light, and OIS for crystal-clear shots. A 13MP ultrawide camera with Macro Vision completes the rear camera system, letting users fit more in the frame or get closer to their subject, and a 32MP hi-res selfie camera guarantees excellent group or solo shots in all lighting conditions. The motorola edge 40 also comes with an array of new video and camera enhancements like Horizon Lock Stabilization, Video Portrait and Vlog Mode to keep photographers up to date and on trend.

When gaming, scrolling or multitasking, consumers can also take advantage of a fast and fluid 144Hz refresh rate to smoothly navigate their device.
The cinematic viewing experience is accompanied by immersive audio with Dolby Atmos®, which invites listeners into a richer audio experience by bringing out more depth, clarity, and details across their favorite entertainment – whether enjoyed through the device’s stereo speakers or headphones.
