What CompareTab says about Motorola Edge 50 Ultra vs Apple iPhone 17
Motorola Edge 50 Ultra combines more RAM and storage with faster wired charging than iPhone 17, with 12 GB of RAM versus 8 GB, 512 GB of storage versus 256 GB, a 144 Hz display instead of 120 Hz, and 125 W wired charging versus 40 W. It also adds a higher-resolution front camera (50 MP versus 18 MP) and a telephoto rear camera. Apple iPhone 17, however, is around $266 cheaper, lighter at 177 g versus 197 g, and thinner at 7.95 mm versus 8.59 mm and has higher quoted peak brightness at 3000 nits versus 2500 nits. The main trade-off is the Edge 50 Ultra’s extra RAM, storage, faster charging, smoother display, and camera features versus the iPhone 17’s lower price, higher quoted peak brightness, and lighter, thinner build.
