Motorola Edge 70 vs OPPO Find X9

Our Verdict: The OPPO Find X9 has the bigger battery of the two, 7025mAh against 4800mAh, which usually means longer between charges, and the X9 has the sharper display at 460 PPI to 444. The Motorola Edge 70 is the lighter phone at 159g against 203g. Only pay up for the X9 if you'll use what it offers; if not, the Edge 5G 70 makes more sense.

Over a full contract, the Edge 5G 70 works out around £617 all-in, about £200 less than the X9.
