Verizon simply loves to stick the “UW” suffix onto names of phones that support its mmWave high-band 5G network, and this time is no different. Ladies and gentlemen, meet the Motorola One 5G UW. Just as the name implies, this is Verizon’s version of the Motorola One 5G that first got official last month. And yes, it has mmWave support.
The phone has a 6.7-inch 1080×2520 90Hz 21:9 LCD touchscreen, the Snapdragon 765 chipset, 4GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, a quad rear camera setup (48 MP main, 8 MP ultrawide, 5 MP macro, 2 MP depth sensor), and dual selfie cams – 16 MP main, 8 MP ultrawide.ÂÂ
A 5,000 mAh battery keeps the phone chugging along, and it runs Android 10. It can be yours in Oxford Blue.
