The Motorola Razr is one of a handful of foldable phones you can actually buy along with the Samsung Galaxy Fold, Royole Flexpai and Huawei Mate X. But it’s the first to bridge the void between a modern Android phone and the familiar clamshell design of the past. I spent a week with the Motorola Razr and it’s got more personality than its rivals. The Razr survived snow, two airplane trips, half a dozen cab rides, a hotel, various pockets, a backpack and a house with a cat. But as much as I’m enamored with the $1,500 flip phone, I still have anxiety about its long-term durability.

i wanna know how it would be for artists? could i buy a separate stylus and draw in an app? is pen pressure a possibility??
Great review. Makes me want to wait for the next one
Best phone ever!
I have a Sog multitool which is entirely steel.
No sound.
It cost 60 bucks.
I would get this, it has an amazing design but this phone simply isn’t worth $1,500. It’s worth mabye $800. The specifications just aren’t really there. They need to lower the price and upgrade the phone if they make a newer model
Does it get a crease over time tho?
You know a large housecat would make this guy 🤔sad and have anxiety, soo yeeeah… 👀🤔🤭
Trying to research this phone is ridiculous all these nerds talking about a price tag that no longer exists.
!!! I went in to the at&t store and i can confirm that the squeek is there and was SUPER annoying. The screen is not as clear as the galaxy fold and its a tad bigger than i wanted it to be. Very disapointed and hopefully motorola can fix all those in next version.
You need to get your nasal passages checked out.
Got one open box mint for $600 at best buy so at that price it’s an amazing phone. Would i pay $1400 ? Nope but I wouldn’t pay $1400 for any phone but this is a really nice phone and I’m always finding new features on this phone that keeps it relevant.
big feels kinda vibe. i dig it
Sounds like you got ripped off buddy!
i would buy it i hate the phones every year is getting bigger and bigger my pocket cant hold the phone anymore!!!! so i return to basic phone, the problem here is the price
So buy a razr or buy groceries for the next 6 months. I’ll pretend that’s a real question.
This is probably the worst review I’ve ever seen. The concerns seem so trivial.
It is a Good idea if they could get the glass or what ever to make it perfect. Just make a good phone and I will pay good money for it
I love it
great review man
My partner has one of these and don’t get me wrong it’s a nice phone but the screen is it’s biggest weak point. 1 little piece of grit left a big dent in the screen right on top of the home button it didn’t affect the screens operation but over the period of 3–4 months the back spot has now spread out considerably there’s Also another issue that’s arose where the phone doesn’t recognize it has been closed so the screen remains on. I believe if they put a silicone strip around the outside perimeter to prevent debris getting in between the screen it would make the Phone much more durable
thorough and good review
My gosh you must be the guy on the airplane complaining about the free WIFI speed„ you harped about the squeaky sound forever.
Hmmm… A mid range phone for more than a flagship… Wait a second, it flips?! Sign me up!
Honestly, in a few years people who will even remember this pos will remember it as a stupid gimmick.
334 Chinese bots disliked that
This guy needs to get a life. More to life than a freaking cell phone.
No way would I go back to flip phones
Horrible. really horrible for that price and I don’t care if it’s the Proto type my question would be why would someone want this phone? Why do you want to flip the phone? Please, this nostalgic trip is silly. I just don’t get it. compared to the smart phones today flip phones suck I hated flipping the phone and they do you have a lot more wear and tear more things can go wrong with it when you have major moving parts. Trash. Try again.
But how does it handle phone calls?
Your chins are too distracting lol
For 600$ though?
RAZR is a piece of
Dude sounds like his second chin is suffocating him.
it’d be nice to see this become mainstream, but what i really wanna see now is a flip phone that is as big as and works like a normal smartphone when it’s closed and can open up to become tablet-sized. it sounds silly, but i just want to see it, hah.
I order mine back in June 16 they’ve been building it since June 18th it’s now July 3rd I still haven’t seen my new phone and when I check the order status if it’s always same status and it’s being built… I’m starting to get nervous they took my money…
