Motorola presented its new Moto Razr 50 and 50 Ultra, its new folding devices with improved design and lots of artificial intelligence. Although both phones were the focus of the event in China, a more austere model is stealing the spotlight. He Moto S50 Neo It is an entry-level terminal that costs less than 200 eurosso it will compete directly with Xiaomi and other manufacturers in this segment.
In terms of specifications, the Moto S50 Neo has a 6.7-inch Full HD+ screen (1080 x 2400 pixels) with a 120 Hz refresh rate. The curved-edge P-OLED panel has a pixel density of 393 ppi and reaches a peak brightness of 1600 nits, making it perfect for outdoors.
The main camera of the Moto S50 Neo has a 50 MP Sony IMX882 sensor with f/1.79 aperture and technology pixel binning to take better photos in low lighting conditions. Next to it we find an 8 MP ultra-wide-angle lens with a maximum viewing angle of 118 degrees and f/2.2 aperture.

Motorola also takes advantage of AI in the entry-level range
Motorola has not been left behind in the race to integrate AI functions into its terminals. Like other mobiles, the Moto S50 Neo offers improvements through algorithms, such as night photos or portrait mode. In addition, Lenovo includes a smart assistant to solve everyday tasks.
Xiaotian is a kind of ChatGPT with which you can interact with natural language. The chatbot answers questions, summarizes or translates documents, and is capable of controlling other applications. The assistant too can learn your travel habits when you travel in the car and keep track of your pending tasks.
This AI is a joint development of Lenovo and Alibaba, so the features will likely not be available outside of China.
