The best Motorola Edge Plus cases and covers

Motorola’s Edge Plus is one of the best smartphones Motorola has made in years, and if you buy this handsome $1,000 hunk of glass, you’ll want to make sure it’s outfitted with a proper case to protect it from harm before you take it out into the wild. We’ve found some great entries that will make it easy, safe, and comfortable to tote your new phone around in style.

Ghostek Clear Phone Case with Stand

Ghostek makes stylish cases that also happen to be impervious to nearly every kind of abuse you could imagine, from drops to dents and scratches. This particular number features advanced shockproof technology that doubles the impact resistance, while also boasting a hard scratch-proof back, just in case your cat happens to have a fondness for phones. The raised corners increase shock-resistance even further, while the surface material affords a secure non-slip grip. Other laudable features include a built-in kickstand, wireless charging compatibility, and raised bezels for extra screen and camera lens protection.

OtterBox Symmetry Series Case

OtterBox is one of the most popular smartphone case brands because it’s got a well-deserved reputation for excellent drop protection. The new Symmetry Series offers three styles for the new Moto Edge Plus: Clear, clear glitter, and black, all made of polycarbonate and synthetic rubber. They have a slim profile that slips easily into your pocket and fits with any look. Raised screen bumpers help protect your display. The one-piece design is easy to slip on and off so you can remove it without damaging your phone — or your fingers. It’s a bit on the pricey side but does its job well.

Speck Presidio Grip Case

Speck Presidio Grip Case for Motorola Moto Edge Plus

Here’s possibly the most comprehensive Moto Edge Plus case you can find right now. Its main selling point is probably the 13-foot drop protection it offers, something which is achieved via the special proprietary cushioning material it uses. It also combines a durable polycarbonate outer shell with an inner layer, with this dual setup reinforcing things even further. On top of this, it has a ridged surface that enhances grip, raised bezels for camera and screen protection, and a Microban coating that significantly reduces the growth of bacteria. It’s also compatible with wireless charging, so you can’t really ask for much more.

Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case

This attractively minimalistic transparent case will preserve the Moto Edge Plus’ good looks in more ways than one. Not only does the transparency let you show off the phone’s original design, but its combination of a tough PC rear and flexible bumper edge makes for some very serious protection. It has been drop tested to a military-grade standard, so you can be sure its slimline design hasn’t come at the cost of delicacy. There are also tactile buttons to help you use the phone as normal, as well as raised lips.

Foluu Bumper Frame Case for Motorola Moto Edge Plus

If you think there’s an outside chance your Moto Edge Plus might be caught up in an explosion in the not-too-distant future, this heavy-duty case from Foluu gives the phone a better-than-zero chance of surviving. It mixes an aluminum metal bumper with a more flexible silicone material, which together offer a snug fit while also guarding the phone against more than your bog-standard variety of damage. The case also adds a built-in stand, raised bezels, and a tempered glass screen protector. It even comes with screws and a screwdriver, which, if nothing else, offers some indication of just how serious this thing is.

Osophter for Moto Edge Plus

This clear, slim, lightweight design lets the beauty of your Moto Edge Plus phone shine through. Made of soft, clear, shatterproof TPU gel and polycarbonate materials, the Osophter absorbs shocks and impacts and protects against dust, dirt, and sharp objects. With its slender, thin design, it features extra protection with extended bumpers along the corners, which are reinforced with raised edges to avoid screen damage. It’s available in clear and smoke gray.

Is this our first look at the OnePlus Fold? I sure hope so
Purported front and rear view of the OnePlus V Fold

OnePlus recently gave a teasing glimpse of its first foldable phone. Well, that glimpse was actually turned into a high-resolution view of the upcoming device, thanks to leaker @OnLeaks (via SmartPrix). The leaked renders of the upcoming OnePlus Fold show a device that is unmistakably OnePlus, with some standout design touches and a promising camera perk.

But a word of caution before you start digging into your wallet. The leaked renders are reportedly based on “a prototype unit in the testing stage,” which means the final version hitting the shelves later this year might look a tad -- or maybe entirely -- different.

The Galaxy Z Flip 5 may steal the Razr Plus’ best feature

One of the Galaxy Z Flip 5's most anticipated features is its larger cover screen, and a new report now suggests that the screen will be just as useful as we've been hoping.

According to SamMobile, most, if not all, of the Z Flip 5's apps will be usable on the rumored 3.4-inch display. This means that Flip 5 owners should have no problem using the outer screen to do just about everything they want with the phone without needing to unfold it. The report also says that Google is working on optimizing its most used first-party apps for the smaller display — namely, YouTube, Google Maps, and Google Messages.

New OnePlus budget phone comes packing 2 super-rare features
OnePlus Nord N30 5G rear face.

OnePlus has introduced a new budget-priced phone for the U.S. market that includes some compelling hardware -- and a couple of rare conveniences. The OnePlus Nord N30 5G will set you back by $300 and is already up for preorders in the U.S., with a free pair of earbuds in tow. 
Starting with the standout tricks, this phone comes with a microSD slot for storage expansion. It supports cards with up to 1TB storage capacity, which should be plenty if you are into capturing a lot of videos and high-resolution videos. Just keep in mind that microSD cards of 1TB capacity from reputed brands could cost as much as the phone itself.

Another notable perk is the presence of a 3.5mm headphone jack on the OnePlus Nord N30 5G. You don’t have to fork out extra cash on a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter or splurge on a Bluetooth audio wearable. However, there is more to this OnePlus phone than meets the eye, as some of its hardware perks defy its asking price by a huge margin. 
You are greeted by a 6.7-inch Full HD+ (2400 x 1080 pixels) display with a 120Hz refresh rate. For comparison, Apple will charge you $800 for the iPhone 14 Plus, but it still keeps you limited to a slow 60Hz LCD screen. And there is no ugly notch to be seen here, as the selfie camera is neatly housed inside a dot-shaped cutout at the top. 
Qualcomm’s octa-core Snapdragon 695 chipset powers this phone, paired with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of onboard storage. The battery capacity is also fairly generous at 5,000 mAh. Plus, you get support for 50-watt fast charging. OnePlus ships the fast charger in the retail package, just in case you’re irked by the bad precedent set by the thousand-dollar phones from Apple and Samsung.
