TheLastOracle, 20 Sep 2020He said the camera was better than the Z Flip in certain in... moreThe Razr has a larger, and more versatile, camera sensor (1/2.0" vs 1/2.55"in the Z Flip - 1.6µm pixels at 12MP vs 1.4µm in the Z Flip) and it has both a wider focal range and larger aperture. Not surprising that it takes better photos.
I can certainly see why one would want to opt for the Razr. It is a proper foldable with a very usable outer screen.
The Z Flip on the other hand, I just don't see it. In its folded state it is quite useless, and the design is not very appealing to me. Might as well just get any other candybar smartphone instead.

Razr or Z Flip ?
They are not direct competitors... They use the same technology to do two completly different thing.
But from my place, the Motorola is the winner because it uses the foldable concept to be smaller in pocket rather than being simply huge. Its performances are sufficient for me.
And I really don't need a tablet-phone everywhere I'm going.
The only thing I hope is that this kind of phone will be cheaper in the future...

I wore put my Pebl’s back in the day from over doing it all the time, turned into a floppy mess. On second thoughts maybe they shouldn’t explore that as a option 😆

L.O.R.D, 19 Sep 2020True, the Razr still looks way cooler than the Z Flip, and ... moreFor this design the best processor is the sd765.
The 865 generates too much heat in the moto casing and so will the 875 or 9xx.

Well, although it’s not using the most advance chipset, but overall this phone gets 8/10. Remember guys, this phone isn’t really for gamers nor graphic exploiters, it’s just another business oriented smartphone. If the hinge last, the brand will last.

Michael Fisher (Mr.Mobile) just reviewed it. He had plenty of positive things to say about it (his reviews are not paid).
According to it, The camera is actually better than Z Flip. Battery lasts about a day. Performance is smooth. The hinge seems solid, for now. Overall, it fixes all the major issues of the first-gen RAZR.
I think Motorola has done a commendable job here.

There should be a button on the side top near thumb which can open the screen nicely. Opening the flap is a big issue here and closing is delight.

Anonymous, 18 Sep 2020That's the deal...with the razr your buying style and ... moreNo its a galaxy phone one minute and a galaxy tablet the next.
Motorola Razris basically unuseable with the front screen smaller then the OG fold
One phone is pushing technological barriers has the worlds smallest curvature on a foldablde device the other doesn't.
Hopefully Fold 2 will outsell Razr even with the more expensive price tag
"and it's ugly as hell"
Thats funny considering everyone loves the look and feel of the device, right now the best foldable device is Fold 2 nothing comes close
