If you thought I gota bit too over - excited about a Zane Grey phonerecently , then get quick , because I ’m now going to be the same path about a brown telephone set too . The phone in question is theMotorola Edge 50 Neo , and I ’ve been sent theMocha Mousseversion to take a closer look at , and without any doubt , it ’s the good looking brown telephone I ’ve ever seen .

A brown phone?

Grey is just about as center - of - the - route as you’re able to get when it come to colors . It goes perfectly with a black or a white headphone , in that it ’s never going to offend anyone ’s eyes or turn anyone off . dark-brown isnotthat colouring material . It ’s the color of bear , tree trunks , and , well , you get laid , that . We smile and express mirth at kitsch chocolate-brown car Department of the Interior from the 70s , and debate a brown Department of the Interior today a courageous specification choice , even on a Ferrari where it ’s called things like “ tan ” to disguise the fact it ’s dark-brown . Until I set middle on the Edge 50 Neo , I plausibly would n’t have gone for brownanything .

But Mocha Mousse is n’t dark-brown . Well , notcompletelybrown anyway . It ’s dark-brown like chocolate and perfectly complement the sometime wooden tabular array top at my local cafe , plus it contrasts beautifully when placed next to an existent mocha chocolate too . It does n’t blend in with either , like a bear concealment in the woods , and even move rather well with my cream hoodie , white-hot Swatch Moonswatch watch , and gold Apple MacBook Air . It turn out a brown earphone is right smart more versatile than I expected .

Mocha Mousse is not a matt brownness either . Get the phone in your hand and you ’ll instantly recognise all the black dapple in the finish , which give it a amazingly earthy flavour . But again , not in an unpleasant way . It ’s a carefully consider chocolate-brown colour that I call back also only work when it ’s implement to Motorola ’s vegan leather cloth . If the Edge 50 Neo was glistening drinking glass , I do n’t guess it would work in the same way at all . It turn out the Mocha Mousse Motorola Edge 50 Neo is the brown leather jacket of the smartphone world : a fashion staple that goes with most things .

Matching wallpaper

The comparison to leather is n’t drop off on Motorola , and there ’s a lovely matching , leather - comparable wallpaper to go with your Mocha Mousse phone . All telephone have a selection of wallpaper include , but the legal age are too bland or too gaudy , and choosing one when take exposure for a reassessment is often a challenge . Motorola ’s matching wallpaper emphasizes texture , and it looks great . It ’s an easygoing choice to show off the sound ’s monotonous covert .

Motorola is n’t solely responsible for the color scheme . It ’s the result of its on-going partnership with color experts Pantone , and the iconic colour swatch panel on the back of the Edge 50 Neo proudly shows off the name of the colour , just in case you were n’t cognizant it even had a name . In the same way the Grisaille shade on the other Motorola Edge 50 Neo I taste kick upstairs it beyond being just another telephone , Mocha Mousse does the same .

It ’s the option to make if you ’re study buy the Motorola Edge 50 Neo . As much as I like the Grisaille , it ’s nowhere near as eye - catch and strange as Mocha Mousse . What ’s more , Motorola has also release a Mocha Mousse version of theRazr Plus 2024 , or the Razr 50 Ultra if you are n’t in the U.S ..

We took a look at thecompact folding headphone in Mocha Mousseat the end of last twelvemonth . There are a few notable differences between the two phones . The Razr does n’t have the Pantone swatch on the back , and the framing is gilded rather than a gunmetal grey on the Edge 50 Neo . Here ’s a controversial statement : I think the Mocha Mousse Edge 50 Neo looks best than the Mocha Mousse Razr Plus . It ’s just a bit less gaudy , which is a import of the gold metallic element .

How about the phone?

Handling the Edge 50 Neo again prompt me just how slim and light it is — just 8.1 mm and 171 gm — and how the sensible 71 mm breadth of the phone makes it easy to hold and use with one hand . I ’ve been using theXiaomi 15 Ultraand theSamsung Galaxy S25 Ultraa set recently , and the Motorola Edge 50 Neo feels very stocky in comparison . It remind me of the oldAsus Zenfone 9’swonderful proportion .

The phone has been around since August 2024 , so while it ’s still a current simulation , we may see an updated rendering in a few months prison term . It ’s also not a earphone available to purchase in the U.S. , due to Motorola still releasing dissimilar phones in dissimilar region , andwith different names , rather than construct things simple for everyone . The Razr Plus 2024 is useable in the U.S. though , but it is the only model uncommitted in Mocha Mousse , so if you need the color and not a foldable , sadly you ’re out of luck .

Like the Edge 50 Neo , the Razr Plus is also likely to be exchange in the scope shortly , as it come out in June 2024 . We ’re excited to see what ’s next , but perhaps even more excited to see what the great “ Salmon Portland Chase ” gloss Motorola and Pantone have planned for 2025 , based on the achiever of Mocha Mousse .
