Apple iPhone 13 vs Motorola Edge 70 Fusion
Our Verdict: The Motorola Edge 70 Fusion has a massively higher-resolution main camera, 50MP against the Apple iPhone 13's 12MP, plus a 32MP selfie camera against 12MP, and the Edge 5G 70 Fusion has the bigger battery of the two, 5200mAh against 3227mAh, but capacity doesn't compare cleanly across iOS and Android, so it isn't a battery-life verdict on its own. Storage goes higher on the iPhone 13, up to 512GB against 256GB, and the Edge 5G 70 Fusion has the bigger screen, 6.8" against 6.1". Get the Edge 5G 70 Fusion if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the iPhone 13 covers the basics for less.
On price there's almost nothing between them: both work out around £387 over a full contract.
