We're nearing the end of 2019, but there's still tons of tech to be seen. Motorola has just announced the One Hyper—a value smartphone priced at $399.99 that features nice hardware. And yes, it has a retractable and motorized pop-up selfie cam similar to the OnePlus 7 Pro.

The front facing camera pops out of the top and unveils itself as a
32-megapixel lens. It should take clear selfies and makes use of
Motorola's QuadPixel technology. In practice, it delivers clearer and
more vibrant photos, as we saw on the Moto Z4.
On the back, you'll find a dual camera setup from a 64-megapixel lens
and a 16-megapixel lens. It features QuadPixel, as well as a night
vision mode, and can take up to a 118-degree ultrawide shot.
And
with the front camera stored as a pop-up, this is a fully edge-to-edge
display. That means no notch and no pinhole design. It also lets the
6.5-inch Total Vision 1080x2340 display speak for itself. While it's
only a FullHD+ resolution, at this price point, it's pretty good and
packs 395 pixels per inch into a 16:9 ratio. We're quite eager to put
this test.
The Motorola One Hyper
is running Android 10.0 with a light Moto user interface. Powering this
smartphone is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 processor with 4 GBs of RAM and
an Adreno GPU. This should be plenty to power a mid-range smartphone.
Additionally, there are 128 GBs of storage.
The Motorola One Hyper
seems like a well-rounded Android phone, and we're looking forward to
soon providing a full review. The best news: If you want one, you can order from Motorola at just $399.99. For those in the U.S., keep in mind it's an unlocked GSM smartphone, so it will work with AT&T and T-Mobile.
