Motorolarazr | 2024 | Unlocked | Made for US 8/256GB | 50MP Camera | Koala Gray

So far I'm loving this phone. I've paired it with a Clicks keyboard and it's like having my old Blackberry back, but I can open it up to a full size screen if I want. But basic functions like text, email, contacts, and calendar can be handled without flipping it open. I've only been using it a couple of months so can't really speak to longevity. My concern, naturally, is about the fold in the flip screen. Only time will tell on that point, but everything else has been great.

The crease is barely noticable in daily use. I only really notice it when I'm actively thinking about it and occasionally when drawing on my phone but it's tolerable. I love the external screen and it's helped me to not use my phone for extended periods of time. The phone build is sturdy and high quality, it runs fast, and most apps work great on the external display (even games Minecraft). The value of this phone is incredible. The camera is better than just about any android phone I've seen in person, there's more storage and memory than I even know what to do with, the audio quality is pretty solid and it's loud enough to play music in a rickety car on a bumpy freeway with the windows down. I haven't had any issues with calls dropping, occasionally texts will take a while to go through but I live in the mountains, so that's to be expected. Out and about my service connection is always great.The phone has also been generally fun to use. The only two pieces of tech to come out in my lifetime that I've really felt excited over have been virtual reality and foldable smart phones, and this phone has really lived up to my excitement. The external display mirroring the internal display when taking photos is something that comes in very handy and people always get so excited when they first see it. The phone has made for a great conversation starter when out and about. I like to carry it in my hand instead of in my pocket sometimes because I love when people ask me questions about it and I get to show off all the fun features. The external display runs all sorts of things including just about any mobile game you can think of. The smart connect feature works surprisingly well with my computer and makes it easier to respond to texts while working without getting immediately sidetracked. Google Gemini comes in very handy when I need quick answers, although sometimes she has no clue what I'm saying and she ends up giving me some very strange responses as a result. The Google Lens type feature that pops up when holding down the nav bar is helpful too. I've found myself using it for quick translations or when people text a word or phrase that I'm not familiar with.I downloaded the Novel Launcher on this phone as I had with my previous phone. It works great on the internal display but it doesn't work well on the external display because it carries the settings from the internal display over to the external display and so everything is squished and cut off in order to make it fit. If there were an option in Nova Launcher to set up two separate home screens for each screen of this phone then that would make the app more practical, but I'm happy enough with the customizability available on the external screen as Motorola designed it.I did have concerns with not being able to change out the internal screen protector, but after having this phone for a few weeks I've realized that it's much less of an issue than anticipated because of how much time the phone spends while closed. I've never dropped the phone with it open and the screen protector on the external display has done its jobe during those falls. The internal screen is protected by default because it isn't exposed nearly as much as standard phone screens are.

Phone gets extremely hot when using the camera app for more than a couple minutes. It does cool down kinda quick but I wouldn't put it back in my pocket right away. Gets warm when using the front screen too. Not as hot as when using the camera. selfie camera is garbage. I do think the main camera is pretty good.Update:Using the killapps app helps kill apps running in the background and it helps it from heating up so quickly. But using YouTube on the front screen for more than a minute makes it run at 45⁰C or higher. This isn't good for the phone.Also, the antennas are poor. I've tried at least 10 phones(Samsungs, iPhones, OnePlus, Pixels, TCL and even a Razr plus 2023) on Verizon in the 6 years I've used them and this is the first phone that wouldn't stay connected and suggested me to use WiFi calling. My wifi isn't great so this phone will be returned.

Great everything on this phone but the major plus is I barely ever have to open it bcuz you can customize the external screen with your apps so it stays closed like a cute little square and fits into any small purse lol but teally

The phone is great and software functions perfectly fine The only concern I have is that the power button seems very loose compared to what I would imagine in power button needing to be, it doesn't seem to interfere with the fingerprint scanning however I doubt that this specific phone can hold up to its IP due to the power button being loose and will probably allow some water and dust to collect inside. I don't know if anybody else has had the same experience other than that the phone is perfectly functional and is a great pickup and I would highly recommend investing a little in something like a foldable phone as I enjoyed very much.

I’ve been a Motorola fan for years and this phone makes me happy. I bought this to replace my Samsung z flip becos I couldn’t fix the flip screen in my country despite being under warranty. The Motorola is a cost effective alternative that works just as well. Camera is 100% awesome, picture quality is amazing. I’m still getting used to the AI features but it seems great. Truly unlocked all I needed was my sim and I also added an e-sim as well.
