I’m just glad that Motorola fully embraced the Razr brand and modernized it. I’m ok with shorter software support, the Android is mature enough that enhanced in each version are minor. I’m sure that’s not for everyone but I’d be happy with what I get, shame Apple won’t make a foldable for years if ever
The enhancements for Android 14 for the razr plus specifically were massive but good try (always on display, tent and front display modes for the cover screen without knockoff Chinese phone workarounds are incredibly welcome but far overdue). That said, the hardware is so good that I bought another plus model this year. Locked to my carrier but half price off eBay. That's really the way to go. These degrade in resale value so quickly and Moto has such shit trade ins that you're better of not caring about it after a year.
Your videos/reviews have dramatically improve throughout the years. Shit, i remember watching you in the early days and would end the video asap once i got the info i needed or would just stop at randomly. Now, you are one of the few reviewers i watch first and also watch from beginning to the end.
I agree as well as the reduction in dirt humor is extra appealing. I like your humor don't get me wrong but it's much more palatable. Thank you for good review. I'm about to purchase a 2023 Razr
I guess they thought people wouldn't want them anymore, then they just kept getting bigger (my little hands and even littler pockets do not approve) :/ Maybe all the excitement over the little screens on the flips will make them reconsider.
It has more to do with consumer psychology than actual objective specs. When people pay a premium for a flagship phone, their caveman lizard brains want "more" to justify the price. Just look at Zenfone 10. MKB gave it a 10/10, I literally read zero negative review on the thing. Everything was spot on well executed. So people, when they need to evaluate it rationally, know this is a good phone. Still its sales was abyssal and Asus is killing the whole compact phone category in their line up.
@@dylanlamarre3768 I agree with you. I myself wanted a compact phone but all of the products released were flagships or highly priced. I wish they had something for budget users as well. I honestly have no use of that much processing power or the camera quality. But even then I guess there were few number of buyers like me who would want that and from a business point of view, its not worth the investment for R&D
As an owner of the 23 model, the smart connect app also offers to use your phone as a WEBCAM for your computer connected device. So if you're a content creator, this could serve as a decent travel or mini cam setup for recording. You can also change the settings on the clam close feature. You can set apps to continually run or disable this feature. Just like you CAN disabled the "close to hangup" feature and switch to speaker mode. When I close my phone the clock appears and a prompt to "continue?" on apps I was using while open. If I don't accept continue, nothing happens on the screen. There's also a nifty feature where if you set your phone screen down, it enables DND mode.

This guy is way off base. The Samsung has superior build quality, better gorilla glass, better moisture/dust resistance, and enhanced Aluminium shell (yes Aluminium is a real term for the metal used in both products). Its a better product than the Moto imo for quality that matters most. I have the Flip4 and its been great but I always upgrade every other release cycle. Just ordered the Flip6 today through Verizon. Got a $400 trade-in for my Flip4 (if you order directly through Samsung they have a $500 trade-in value for the 4). I ordered from Verizon just for convenience. They are also offering a free upgrade to 512gb vs the standard 256gb. I'm looking forward to it primarily 3 reasons. First is the new lens upgrade. Photos and videos from the Flip4 are disappointing, especially since Samsung is known for its superior lens technology. In addition, the new AI capabilities (which were not even mentioned in this video) are outstanding. I'm heading to Europe in a few weeks and look forward to using the new language AI capabilities. Another important feature that was not covered in this video: the vapor chamber for heat diffusion. It doesn't sound like a big deal but it is. The Flip4 gets VERY hot when connecting to bluetooth devices and Android Auto. The vapor chamber is designed to disperse the heat. All in all a very nice upgrade to an already great product with superior build quality.
Honestly that battery is comparatively much better than that of the Z flip or Z fold series. How can you think it's reasonable to make a large format foldable and think that 4300 MaH is a reasonable battery size. I've been using the fold series for years since the fold 2 and now I'm up to the fold 5. I'm seriously considering just going to a small format foldable and this phone is looking amazing as an option. The benefit is that moto still has their own version of Dex so I wouldn't be losing that.
it really just about what you look out for in a folding phone. For a more sturdy hinge and stable software with updates, the z flip is still the better choice. For design, there are others like the moto.
Samsung foldables die before they stop supporting them, saying this as someone who had two Samsung Foldables. Both died from technical flaws in folding mechanism and all Samsung suggested was "500-700€ screen replacement". And based on Reddit tonnes of people have the same exact problem
Remember last year when @Mrkeybrd pitted the motorola vs samsung in water, cold, heat, dust, and folding tests? the motorola died after 100,000 folds give or take. The Samsung only showed signs of damage after 400,000 folds. One week of tests.
5:40 Hands-free activation is a game changer. Hopefully they'll be an update so you can open specific apps based on which body part you waggle at the camera.
The Razr It's better BUT TWO really big draw backs with Motorola is the software updates and the older internals weaker chipset And the commitment the 7 years Samsung promises and how fast Samsung and how good they are with updates that is where Motorola has a huge disadvantage and that is why the z flip overall is still better. It will overall last u much longer and will have much faster updates.
I've got the Razr 40 Ultra, and it continues to amaze me on how brilliant it is, overall. Obviously, I'm envious of the new 50, but, I don't think I will be switching anytime soon. As for the Samsungites that are referring to the 7 years the Flip 6 will offer, I have to ask, who will keep their phone for 7 years? And do I want to have my front screen limited on what I can use it for? 😊
@@chryschrysostomou5392 u can always use good lock and there is actually plenty ppl. See with iPhone they still selling iPhone 11 new at places and ppl buying those and they r now 5 years old. Just saying. And the Razr 40 or 40 plus has not even received the first software update and is way behind still stuck on Android 13. So that's Motorola's issue the updates are just horrible slow. Now almost two years behind. Think about that.
@@chryschrysostomou5392 well the problem with Motorola is the updates. I mean they are still on Android 13 almost 2 years behind now software update ever. That is pretty bad. And ppl definitely hold on or buy phones older. Look u can still buy new iPhones 11 those are old what helps is long software support makes those phones last longer and r more desirable. A z flip 6 7 years updates will last a long longer and will be holding its value better since those even after 5 6 years still be a valid choice for some b cause of the software support. Motorola can't even get 3 updates on time. Of they could the Razr would definitely a phone much more ppl would use but the horrible updates holding it back. Unfortunately.
@@HerrAlexanderT Voxi selling the Ultra for £741 and can be had for £750 on Motorola providing you have a perksatwork account via your employer. Both come with buds too.
I'm getting this phone tomorrow and honestly can't wait, have the Samsung z flip currently but personally the razr seemed much better this time around. My grandad who died years ago had the original razr and he loved it, I wonder what he'd think about the new ones 😅still have his original razr as well will be cool looking at them side by side.
Зачем, ЗАЧЕМ они оставили дырку на основном экране если телефон можно закрыть и сфоткаться с основной камеры БОЖЕЕЕЕ, ведь там есть экранчик, который позволит увидеть себя. (((( ПОЧЕМУ в этом мире ничего не может быть таким идеальным ?(( настолько было всё идеально, пока не увидел в экране эту тупорылую дырочку бесполезную, в которой нет НИКАКОГО смысла
Just a suggestion add some looped animation or may be just a lock screen behind you in the Montor, In the starting I though there is someone else sitting and using some other phone which is odd to look at.
I really hope this does well and people can stop being blind sheep buying shitty shamesung phones. Motorola and Sony and Pixel phones need to step it up!
I have the RAZR 40 ultra, and I'm really disappointed in Motorola. It's still running android 13 with no sign of new OS updates. I would not recommend getting the 50 ultra, as the same will most likely occur with it only rolling out with android 14, and not being updated to android 15.
It's a shame they did away with the ultrawide lens, I've really come to use that more than I thought I would on the Z Flip 5 when taking pictures or videos with the phone closed (using the better cameras), it's really a fun party trick and everyone always wants to jump in the video lol A zoom lens basically removes this experience...
Will this be let down by the really poor Motorola update policy?.. My Razr 40 Ultra is still on Android 13, and there are only bimonthly security updates.
can you do a review for the cheaper razr 50, and a comparison between the 50 and the 50 ultra? the biggest difference between the two seems to be the processor and battery, so can you do a performance comparison review for 50 vs 50 ultra? even better would probably be 50 vs 50 ultra vs z flip 6. you're the best! thank you!
Hi I looked at the Motorola ultra when I was changing my flip 3 and my choice ended up between flip 5 which I purchased or the opposite flip brilliant crease finish. The 40 felt like a plastic toy compared with the other 2 . I hope the 40 has corrected this and become a true competitor.
Samsung flips and folds are underperforming Samsung are clowns for not doing better 👎👎 This motorolaflip have a bigger battery 4500!!! then even Samsungs Fold6 4400!!! 😂😂 samsung is a joke😂
I got one. Gotta say this is my most favorite smartphone I've ever had. The customisation on this phone is unparalleled. The unique features it has are actually useful and not just gimmicks (camcorder mode, karate chop motion to activate the very bright torch, twist flick the phone to go onto selfie mode but using the better quality back camera where you can actually see your face on the front screen, set apps to continue operating instantly on the front screen if you close the phone in the middle of using said app). I use the front screen as much as I do with it fully open, to my surprise. The battery life is very good for a flagship, and she charges real quick. Having a flip phone turns out to be good for safety, too, which is what I has hoping for when I got one. Long phones bend in your pocket, especially if you have a physically rigorous job, which leads to damages. With the phone flipped in my pocket, it effectively turns into a block. Just get a Poetic hardcase for it and a screen protector for the front screen and you've now got a sturdy block that is well protected. The inside screen already has a pre-installed screen protector on it, which is good. The stock phone case that comes free with it is okay, but not the best, although it does come with a strap to turn it into a mini handbag (I don't know why you'd want to use your phone as a handbag, but hey-ho).
How funny we complain about a 4" outerscreens yet a few years ago 4" was the size of oir main screens. So not sure why people complain about these outerscreens
Samsung is anyways dead brand now. Dying slowly. Xiaomi vivo oppo oneplus honor huawei and now moto. All ripping their market share apart. Making way better products than dying samsung.
Seems to me that the only thing this phone has got going for it is the full front screen. Samsung beats it in every other area. Upgrading my z-flip 4 in September, and I think I'll stay in the Samsung ecosystem.
I have both the the flip 5 and razr from last year and I love the flips camera and built quality more . I wish my Samsung watch would work better with the Motorola, this would be the only way for me to switch to motorola. And if they had a better camera
I am thinking of buying the razr 50 ultra but I do have samsung watch which I really enjoy, the phone I have rn is a OnePlus. What are your issues with the watch and motorola phone?
@fenn5390 that all the samsung AI features don't work on the Motorola. I recently downloaded the beta 6.0 and my watch always disconnects from the phone.
@fenn5390 even before the beat software update , I was not able to get as much details as I normally get from when you sync the watch to a samsung phone
seems like a lot of those apps might have been very usuable if the entire screen was in use.. but alas those cameras won't let u :( good phone regardless
That RAZR has been truly disappointing - Since January FW update, have to open the phone to use Google Assistant properly, and Moto is not even committing to fix this critical user-function, despite still advertising that Assistant can be used with the phone closed. It is a serious defect for a phone that promotes usability when closed. The Lenovo/Moto/RAZR support/discussion board shows how little Moto is taking any responsibility of a broken feature Moto specifically promotes. Moto RAZR... outrageous you have to open the phone to use Google Assistant, awkward, not as advertised, more wear on the hinge and screen fold... since Jan '24 - still that way in July - that 25% of a phone's typical use life a critical SW function is broken. Great idea, but someone dropped the ball on this critical function.

Goes to show u that 4 inch screen phones need to be a thing again. Idk why they can't make super small phones anymore

@@bradye21playsIndieHorror with your hand.
@@badfoot Yeah, and you would cover the cameras with your hand.
@@seethisth4753if the cameras were in same place on back. Then when open the small screen would be at bottom of phone as opposed to top.
Put the camera in same place on the back, so when it's open the small screen would be at bottom half and cameras up top half.
Well, after watching the Galaxy Flip 6 video, and then this one again, yep its the Motorola RAZR 50 Ultra for me....if I could afford it 😢
can you do a review for the cheaper razr 50, and a comparison between the 50 and the 50 ultra? the biggest difference between the two seems to be the processor and battery, so can you do a performance comparison review for 50 vs 50 ultra? even better would probably be 50 vs 50 ultra vs z flip 6.
you're the best! thank you!
But how good is it in comparison to the z flip remains to be seen.
Remember the flip is $1800. So it better be a damn sight better for all those clams!
@@darlenepaul2918In wat country is it that much? I can get it for 1150
what about the 50 (non plus)?
Luv your accent ❤
I believe Moto can definitely include an end-user-replaceable battery option with the next iteration of this phone...!
It reminded me the blackberry passport. Love that form factor.
Great review! Can you comment on if apps that require fingerprint auth can be used on the cover without opening ? Banking, RSA, etc?
On my z flip 5, I don't have to open my phone for fingerprint authentication
yes, it can
Watch a ton of your videos and I did not realize I wasn't subscribed 😅
How does the phone operate? Most moto phones are weird and hard to use especially if you never use one
Samsung Flip 5 and soon the Flip 6 looks like a prototype razr 😢
Nice reference man. Spurt Fiction
all phones should have a back screen like this and get rid of the selfie camera
Hi I looked at the Motorola ultra when I was changing my flip 3 and my choice ended up between flip 5 which I purchased or the opposite flip brilliant crease finish. The 40 felt like a plastic toy compared with the other 2 . I hope the 40 has corrected this and become a true competitor.
Does anyone know when the Vivo X Fold 3 Pro will be available in Europe?
I loved the 2023 razr plus, the only issue with that was the mediocre battery life so this could be perfect
Don't believe these guys, they're paid to give their 'reviews'. So take it with a grain of salt
Your selfie on this RAZR looks very nice to me
Samsung flips and folds are underperforming Samsung are clowns for not doing better 👎👎
This motorolaflip have a bigger battery 4500!!! then even Samsungs Fold6 4400!!! 😂😂 samsung is a joke😂
I got one. Gotta say this is my most favorite smartphone I've ever had. The customisation on this phone is unparalleled. The unique features it has are actually useful and not just gimmicks (camcorder mode, karate chop motion to activate the very bright torch, twist flick the phone to go onto selfie mode but using the better quality back camera where you can actually see your face on the front screen, set apps to continue operating instantly on the front screen if you close the phone in the middle of using said app). I use the front screen as much as I do with it fully open, to my surprise. The battery life is very good for a flagship, and she charges real quick.
Having a flip phone turns out to be good for safety, too, which is what I has hoping for when I got one. Long phones bend in your pocket, especially if you have a physically rigorous job, which leads to damages. With the phone flipped in my pocket, it effectively turns into a block. Just get a Poetic hardcase for it and a screen protector for the front screen and you've now got a sturdy block that is well protected. The inside screen already has a pre-installed screen protector on it, which is good. The stock phone case that comes free with it is okay, but not the best, although it does come with a strap to turn it into a mini handbag (I don't know why you'd want to use your phone as a handbag, but hey-ho).
man good taste in music! Polaris is one of my fav bands!
It's close to perfect, well done Motorola!
How come there are no videos about the Moto Razr 50, the non ultra, with the dimensity 7300X?
How funny we complain about a 4" outerscreens yet a few years ago 4" was the size of oir main screens. So not sure why people complain about these outerscreens
more like a decade ago
@@diztinger uhm the apple iphone se 2022 has a 4.7" screen so not a decade ago friend😀😂
@@uinnovell and how is 4.7" 4"?
@@diztinger handeklap v jou tjomie, jys net n poes. Hahaha
@@diztinger the same as a 7" tablet is bigger the the fold of 7.6" so you please explain, oh holy god knowledge to everything ??
Samsung is anyways dead brand now. Dying slowly. Xiaomi vivo oppo oneplus honor huawei and now moto. All ripping their market share apart. Making way better products than dying samsung.
Call that magenta instead of hot pink
The standard Razr 50 next please
Seems to me that the only thing this phone has got going for it is the full front screen. Samsung beats it in every other area.
Upgrading my z-flip 4 in September, and I think I'll stay in the Samsung ecosystem.
Love you too Uncle Spurt
Nope Z flip all the way, when it comes to performance, software support, smoothness, plus….Moto can’t beat the old Sammy
Need a microsd slot and i ll buy it,
Not enough storage!
Iam looking maybe for sony xperia 1 vi
I have both the the flip 5 and razr from last year and I love the flips camera and built quality more . I wish my Samsung watch would work better with the Motorola, this would be the only way for me to switch to motorola. And if they had a better camera
‼️‼️‼️ i need the best i feel like that’s apples biggest selling point i wish Motorola cared about being the best
I am thinking of buying the razr 50 ultra but I do have samsung watch which I really enjoy, the phone I have rn is a OnePlus. What are your issues with the watch and motorola phone?
@fenn5390 that all the samsung AI features don't work on the Motorola. I recently downloaded the beta 6.0 and my watch always disconnects from the phone.
@fenn5390 even before the beat software update , I was not able to get as much details as I normally get from when you sync the watch to a samsung phone
Do you talk like this everyday? LOL "conveniently available body parts"
Beautiful but stil going for Samsung. Motorola OS support sucks and their camera too
It aint dead.
Moto have a bad reputation to not support them as samsung did. Sorry bud. I'd still take samsung
$100 more than the Galaxy flip 5 in Canada but I don't see the value. It seems like a fine phone but I'd never pay $1.4k for a flip phone
I think the only thing that would make this better to me is something similar to samsungs accidental touch protection thing.
I would get this or the 2024 if it were on Verizon 😮💨 sucks that its not.
One quiestion,,can you make a phone call with the phone close?
Relatable, except I would be clipped
Why would anyone pay £200 more for the "ultra" model just to get a smaller battery yet (almost) similar features otherwise?
It's called changing it in the setting, i swear these so called reviewers are mentally slow.
moto bad software good specs, is like LGs smartphones
seems like a lot of those apps might have been very usuable if the entire screen was in use.. but alas those cameras won't let u :( good phone regardless
That RAZR has been truly disappointing - Since January FW update, have to open the phone to use Google Assistant properly, and Moto is not even committing to fix this critical user-function, despite still advertising that Assistant can be used with the phone closed. It is a serious defect for a phone that promotes usability when closed. The Lenovo/Moto/RAZR support/discussion board shows how little Moto is taking any responsibility of a broken feature Moto specifically promotes. Moto RAZR... outrageous you have to open the phone to use Google Assistant, awkward, not as advertised, more wear on the hinge and screen fold... since Jan '24 - still that way in July - that 25% of a phone's typical use life a critical SW function is broken. Great idea, but someone dropped the ball on this critical function.
It's so dumb that they didn't make a black option. There should always be a black option. Otherwise, it's a win for Motorola.
