THE THINKPHONE IS TAKING MOTOROLA IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

The Lenovo ThinkPhone by Motorola, has a few things going for it that recent mainstream, high-end Moto devices like 2022’s Edge Plus have come up short on: a full IP68 water-resistance rating, a healthy four-year security update policy, and a sensible $699 asking price. There’s also a capable Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset and a big 6.6-inch 1080p OLED with a smooth-scrolling 144Hz refresh rate. On top of all that, there’s Motorola’s Ready for PC, a suite of continuity features that work with Windows PCs and is right at home with Lenovo’s ThinkPad business laptops. At the heart of the ThinkPhone is a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset, which Qualcomm released in the second half of 2022 as a step-up version of the 8 Gen 1. It’s paired with 8GB of RAM, which is plenty for keeping daily tasks running smoothly. The ThinkPhone’s screen is a large 6.6-inch OLED panel with 1080p resolution and a top refresh rate of 144Hz. It’s bright enough to see in bright daylight, and that high refresh rate gives a smooth appearance to animations and scrolling.
