One of the older Edge series phones, the 2020 Edge +, gets what we think will be its last major OS update, Android 12. Motorola’s former flagship was originally launched with Android 10 on board, but was upgraded to Android 11 last year.
Not really like clockwork, though Motorola now delivers Verizon customers who have purchased the 2020 Edge +, the next major update, Android 12. The Big Red already has updated the phone’s support page to reflect the changes and listed some of the new features it added to the phone.
- P-Early-Media header: Enjoy shorter call setup time and better voice quality for Motorola HD Voice phones.
- Advanced user interface for calls: Advanced dialing is now enabled by default and the user interface has been removed.
- Verizon Location Agent (VLA) app: The Verizon Location Agent app has been removed.
- Verizon Digital Secure: A new version of the Verizon Digital Secure app has been added (ver. 5.3.0.1133).
- N5 to N5 transfer: Fixed an issue with cell detection.
Besides, Verizon confirmed that the update includes the March security patch. We have no idea if Motorola plans to further deliver Android 13 to the 2020-old flagship, but the chances are slim that the US-based company will go out of their way to deliver a third major OS update for this particular Edge + – model.
