![]() I occasionally noticed hints of slowdown here and there, as I have with some other 765 phones, but never to the point where the Edge felt compromised. ![]() I've been editing photos in Lightroom, piecing together short videos in Premiere Rush and meticulously tracking projects in Notion, and the Edge handled all of it beautifully. Honestly, though, I was surprised by how little I missed that high-end processor. ![]() Just bear in mind that, if you take gaming on your phone very seriously, you'll probably want to splurge on a phone with a Snapdragon 865 instead. That's partially because Motorola went with the 765G instead of the standard 765 - it can hit a marginally higher maximum clock speed, so it packs some extra (and welcome) oomph. Speaking of games, the octa-core Snapdragon 765G packs more than enough horsepower to tackle most games with ease. And an app called Moto Gametime also lets you place virtual shoulder buttons on the edges of the screen, which offers much-needed extra control for games like Call of Duty: Mobile and Forza. You'll find a pill on the side of the screen you can flick up and down to access your notification shade and app drawer, just as if you were performing those gestures in the middle of the screen. (I'm still shocked, considering just how big my palms are.) Thankfully, the rest of Motorola's screen-centric software tweaks are just as helpful. Some reviewers have had issues with flaky palm rejection, leading to accidental touches on this expansive screen, but that has rarely happened to me. The screen gets its name for the way its edges cascade around the sides of the phone, and whether that'll work is largely a matter of taste. My only real gripe so far is how some noise is apparent when looking at dark images or backgrounds while the screen's brightness is bottomed out, but honestly - it's the kind of problem you really need to be looking out for to notice. The screen's 19.5:9 aspect ratio and support for HDR10 also make it an excellent choice for binging movies while lazing around the house, though its size means people with smaller hands will need both of them to handle this thing. Still, that's nothing a quick trip into the phone's settings can't fix. I prefer my colors as punchy as possible, so the neutral tones the screen offers by default felt a little lacking. More importantly, it's just really nice to look at. This OLED display runs at 2,340x1,080, and it refreshes at 90Hz - a relative rarity in devices that cost this much. This 6.7-inch Endless Edge display was one of the Edge Plus's standout features, and while it wasn't as technically impressive as the screens Samsung and OnePlus used in their flagships, it absolutely shines in this lower-cost package. Motorola transplanted the screen from the Edge Plus straight into the Edge, and trust me - that's a good thing. It's like Motorola went across the board and dialed everything back just a little - enough to take the Edge out of flagship territory, but not enough to spoil most of what it got right with the Edge Plus. The rest of the package, from the Endless Edge screen to the speakers to the headphone jack and microSD card slot, has been left completely untouched. (In the US, anyway some international versions only have 4GB, which definitely isn't great.) Motorola also went with a 64MP main camera for the Edge rather than one of Samsung's 108MP sensors, and, well, that's about it. It fitted the phone with 6GB of RAM instead of 12GB. ![]() Motorola gave the Edge a Snapdragon 765G chipset - the very same one that powers all of its rivals - and a 4,500mAh battery. That's a somewhat reductive way to look at things, but it's accurate all the same. Then, it swapped some slightly more modest components into the same body and shipped it as the Edge. After four years of focusing on cheap phones that make consistently solid money, Motorola took a stab at a proper, premium smartphone, with high-end everythings and an eye-catching design to boot. To understand the Edge, you need to take a step back and consider its premium sibling, the Verizon-exclusive Edge Plus. As I continue to use the phone and compare it to a growing number of competitors, I'll update this story with further impressions and eventually a full review score. That's why we're not calling this a review - for now, anyway. 6.7-inch “Endless Edge” OLED display, 90Hz refresh rateĦ4MP f/1.8 wide camera, 16MP f/2.2 ultra-wide/macro camera (117 ° field of view), 8MP f/2.4 telephoto camera, time of flight sensorĪuthor's note: It's been pretty hectic around here lately, and I haven't been able to test the Motorola Edge as thoroughly as I would like.

The input is then sent to the switch case and based on user input.īased on what input is provided the function will be called. In the main function, we take input from the user based on what operation the user wants to do in the program. These functions are called by the menu-driven main function. There are various operations that can be done on a linked list, like: In the structure, we have a data variable called info to hold data and a pointer variable to point at the address. This is done to give the compiler an idea of how the node should be. A linked list structure is created so that it can hold the data and address as we need it. The first part of this code is creating a structure. Printf("nThe deleted element is:%dt",ptr->info ) Printf("nEnter the position of the node to be deleted:t") Printf("nThe deleted element is:%dt",ptr->info) Printf("nThe deleted element is :%dt",ptr->info) Printf("nEnter the data value of the node:t") Printf("nEnter the position for the new node to be inserted:t") Printf("nEnter the data value for the node:t" ) Printf("nEnter the data value for the node:t") Temp=(struct node *)malloc(sizeof(struct node)) Printf("n 8.Delete from specified position n") Printf("n 5.Insert at specified position n") The following code will show you how to perform operations on the list.

There are multiple functions that can be implemented on the linked list in C. This is how a linked list is represented. In the example, the number 43 is present at location 1000 and the address is present at in the previous node. The most popular types of a linked list are: The Linked List is like an array but unlike an array, it is not stored sequentially in the memory. The disadvantage is that to get to a node, we must traverse to all the way from the first node to the node that we require. The size of the linked list is not fixed, and data items can be added at any locations in the list. Every linked list has two parts, the data section and the address section that holds the address of the next element in the list, which is called a node. What is Linked List in C?Ī Linked List is a linear data structure. In this article, let’s see how to implement a linked list in C.

This is included because the board is based on the premium Z68 chipset, which can access the onboard GPU with which LGA1155 processors are equipped. The final talking point is also located here, and takes the form of an HDMI output.

This is because Asus hasn’t fitted an expansion slot between the two 16x PCI-E slots. The only oddity of the layout is the fact that there are only three expansion slots on the board instead of the usual four. The important power sockets are located close to the edge of the board, and the RAM slots are sufficiently far away from the CPU socket to allow reasonably large DDR3 modules to fit alongside a large cooler. The board also comes with a healthy count of four USB 3 ports (two on the back panel, and two via an internal header), Asus’ useful MemOK! memory debugger and onboard power, reset and overclocking buttons.ĭespite all these features and an M-ATX form factor, the Gene-Z is also well laid out. Niche items such as the ProbeIt voltage monitoring points and the ROG connect external overclocking features are still present, for example. That’s not to say that all the crazy features have been cut out, though (it wouldn’t be a ROG board if it was completely sensible). Thankfully, Asus has been smart when considering which features to leave on the board.Įxcessively fluffy features such as ROG iDirect (which enables you to overclock the board via your smartphone) have been cut out, while useful technologies such as the Debug LED readout, BIOS Print and the onboard X-Fi sound codec remain. This certainly seems to be the case with the Gene-Z, as its feature list is relatively short for a board targeting enthusiasts and gamers.
