[Rewarded Review] Motorola did it again, the razr it’s back!

Incredible phone that they have created! Starting with the design it very thin but feel sturdy there is no gap when closed, material they are scratch resistant and the new leather back it has give you a better grip of the phone so you are never afraid about dropping it. Now the outside screen is way more functional than the samsung flip6. You don’t need to download anything else everything is native so you can have all your favorite apps music, videos, smarthome, whatsapp, maps and whatever you may want to bring over from your apps to display in the front ones. The refresh rate in both is so smooth that the outside screen feel premium and vivid to watch movies, games, take photos without worrying about acurrate colors. Coming from an iphone 14 pro the turbo charge is something from another world. Been able to charge my phone from 0 to 100 in 20 minutes is so inimaginable, I stopped thinking about to plug my phone before going to bed, plus battery life is a day and a half using apps, calls and taking photos, more than any phone. Something everyone talks about it’s about not having an ultrawide camera but in my opinion it doesn’t bother me, now with moto ai it’s like all tour photos come from photoshop to your gallery. It enhances colors blurs backgrounds, focus people and faces, recognizes if its a nature, people or action photos so you never miss a moment, because of it I want to take pictures of everything everyday like with my friends, family, work dinner basically capturing evey moment! Finally system is so fluid and easy to share with other devices like android it’s living in 2050. I just think how it became something so normal from apple and another brands to sell OK phone at a $1k price mark, with regular features same design, nothing impressive and keep customers locked into their ecosystem. If you are wondering about this phone just give it a try and you will love it, it took me so long watching reviews, thinking this and that and I bought it thinking I might return it but now I love it and I would like everyone to have such an impressive phone like this, I get compliments everywhere I go, show them pictures and next I’m the picture guy, I only have a charger because I don’t have to use it every single moment or being afraid of ruining out of juice. Just try it, you will be more than happy with it plus the nostalgia makes every single dollar worth it! :)
[Rewarded Review] Pros and Cons... More Cons

After years of owning OnePlus phones, I figured I'd try this out...

The thing I like most about this phone is the camera, or the way it's utilized. Opening the screen halfway, at a 90 degree angle, lets you prop it up to take group photos so no one has to sit out to take the picture. The outer screen faces the group so everyone can see what the pic will look like.

The outer screen is a huge game changer, IMHO. Not only convenient with photos or videos, but most of your daily interactions can be done without opening the phone. In fact, almost all apps can be opened on the small screen, it's just if you want to deal with viewing a tiny screen and the precise taps needed for such a small screen. Also, cases further reduce your fingers from hitting the precise taps you need to make. In general, the outer screen is a big benefit.

Charging is very slow compared to my OnePlus. My previous phone could be charged from 0-100% in about 30 minutes. This is nowhere close. I don't think this phone uses any quick charge technology. So top-ups take significantly longer. I can no longer get 50% battery charge in 10 minutes. It appears they went all in on wireless charging, which is convenient, but super slow in comparison. While I appreciate the 15 volt wireless charging, they could have also added a fast quick charge method as well.

As for the phone itself... Compared to a 2 year old OnePlus flagship, this phone is extremely sluggish. I immediately noticed it's a mid range phone and that's not something you want to notice right away. I don't even have half of the storage used up and it's still sluggish. When trying to play games, the screen takes a second to recognize your finger on it. There's definitely a noticeable delay.

The biggest downside to this phone is that you need 2 hands to open it. After a few weeks this becomes tedious. Put simply , this is a novelty phone. I wish I would have skipped this and went with the OnePlus 13 instead.
An almost perfect phone

When foladables first emerged a few years ago, the technology seemed impossible. I couldn't imagine that a foldable phone would ever be truly be usable as a daily driver for an average person. Last year, with the Razr+ 2023 model, Motorola had made enough progress to convince me to give it a try. I loved it. The Razr+ 2024 model was a modest upgrade, but I felt strongly enough about the phone to go for it. The 2024 version of the Razr+ may only be a modest upgrade, but it is much more "finished" feeling product. The hinge feels strong and smooth. The outside screen is bigger and even more useful than it was last year. I dropped my first Razr a couple times and I could never detect any damage; I'm assuming the 2024 Razr+ will be at least as hardy. All of the basic functions of the phone work as they should: call quality, bluetooth, wifi are all great. I love the phone and I'm very happy with my decision to make the upgrade from 2023 to 2024.

My one wish is for more storage. For a long time a must-have for me was expandable storage in my phone. I made the sacrifice with the Razr+2024 (and 2023), and I don't regret it, but I do miss the SD card slot. I know that the industry is moving away from that wonderful option. Maybe a model of the Razr+ with 1TB of internal storage would be an adequate solution. I'm hoping in the future Motorola will offer a version of the Razr either with more internal storage or a micro SD slot.
I wish I could, but I do not recommend

The pink color is pretty and the "crease" is less noticeable compared to the Z flip, but this one had too many flaws for me to keep it. Bought this in Aug. and switched back to my z flip 5 last week because of all the bugs. Please see list below. These are all deal breakers for me, so its very personal based judgement. This phone could be wonderful for those who are not bothered/care about these things:

1.) Camera picture editing is terrible. Tried numerous times with dozens of different photos and I could not get any to translate properly as a background.

2.) This phones internal antena does not play well with AT&Ts network. I have ok coverage, but this lost signal several times a day and caused countless texts to not send and calls dropped as well. If I didn't have a phone for work, I would have been even more upset sooner.

3.) The final straw was when it hit daily issues of failed app launches and over heating till I couldn't hold the phone anymore. I am not a person who plays hard core games on their phone. The most taxting effort I put it through was playing monster hunter now a few hours a day on the low frame rate settings and GPS with spotify for 5hrs on a car trip.
