I jusy got this phone with boost mobile for $160. This is the first foldable that I try because I am hesitant about paying way too much for something that seems so fragile. The problem with these Motorola phones that I have always had is that they only offered two years of android upgrades. I usually keep a phone for about five years and I can’t or won’t pay upwards of $600 for something that’s only gonna get two years but I’ve had the phone in my hands. It feels great. The software looks awesome it booted up to android 14. Motorola has a nice launcher and the hinge and the field of the phone is great but no matter how hard I try I can’t get over the two year android thing not when Samsung has promised at least seven even though I don’t think I’ll get there. It’s nice to go at least over three years so it’s a good phone but I’ll probably pass it off to somebody else. It was $160 experiment that really did help in trusting foldable flip phones a little bit better.
i got this phone and had to replace it 2 times my speeker phone when on sounds bad when im talking to someone they tell me im cutting out on speeker phone they all seem to cut out to callers when on speeker phone and also how come you cant play media when the phone is closed dont make sence
Idk why people are complaining about this phone ive had the second razor from a few years ago had the z flip 3 an 4 an the hinge is way better than those phone i went through 7 z flip 4s an 4 z flip 3s they all had loose an flappy hinges an were just straight up garbage then i got an s23 ultra an went through 4 of those so bottom line is all phones are junk an issues but ive found this one to be better built than the samsungs an as for the processor does it really matter? Short answer no an i honestly think the people that are having issues with these phones are probably the ones shoving there fingers through the screen then blaming the manufacturer
The screen breaking wasn't a issue for me it's the price for a weak underpowered overpriced phone. Meanwhile the one plus 12r is the same price with 16gb of ram and charges in 26 minutes with a 100 watt charger in box. Some people simply know when something isn't worth the asking price
Wow! TJS_powersports It sounds like you go through phones like professional tennis players go through tennis shoes!! How did you go through 4 s23 Ultras? I assume they sent you replacements thanks to insurance. Anyway, I'm here because I will be using the Motorola Razr 5G (2023) 128GB on AT&T because I had to replace a lost Motorola Edge 2022 on one of my personal lines. They didn't have the Edge. I have to pay a 100 dollars deductible on a future bill. But I am looking forward to this phone.
From what I've seen of other unboxings and such, if it doesn't come with a charger then that's probably a cricket issue as getting it from Motorola directly includes the charger.
Cricket has the razr 2023 for $99.99 for new customers and existing who add a new line. $125 total with tax and acc credit towards bill. I was paying 101 for two lines. Now it will be 120 something I forget exactly atm but it's worth it to have 3 rather than 2. But I decided to get the razr since I had one of the OG' Razrs. I just needed it. Lol I can't justify any of the prices for new phones with how easy it is to destroy them. Shut I can still buy a used car for $ 1800 and my phone if I want a new Galaxy with NO removable storage grrr I'm gonna pay almost 2k. I'm a seriously anti cloud person so this has been a huge problem for me with phones. I want my files in my possession not floating around an imaginary storage space open to hackers. But I digress its just ny reasoning to stop paying outrageous costs for cellphones. PS. I'm still rocking the S10 4.1 android 12, just because of my storage. FYI theres many legit apps that can help remedy problems like camera performances and system care. After all it's still an android. Get desperate enough just root it.
Bro 7gen 1 didn't come before the 8gen 1 the triple 8 was two different tiers of processor 7 is midrange 8 is flagship processor that is why the editing wasn't good
@@ianwest1624sounds like u just had a bad exp with it cause your trying to have a cell phone do cpu shyt... compared to the flip 4 it overall blows the flip 4 out the water with the exception of a new snapdragon...the moto has it beat every other category
@@ianwest1624 makes sense like i said before you want a phone capable of doing things thats meant to be done on cpu...those 2 phones will def get the job done if you dont use or have a good cpu in the crib understood 🤙🏽
@@ianwest1624 lol, I replaced the s23 fe with the razr. I really wasn't impressed with the s23 performance. For me at least, the razr is faster with less lag time.
The idea is great, however the phone degrades rapidly. Initially the phone connection was terrible. At first I thought it was a problem with my service provider verizon but switching the sim card back to my old device I discovered that the phone itself was to blame. At 1 month the crease where the phone folds created a white line in the middle of the screen. The "vegan leather" began to peel off. At 2 months the screen would randomly show only gray scale- no color. at 3 months the phone screen went entirely black- resetting the device did not correct it. At this point the phone was completely unusable. I contacted motorola for a refund and was told the window for a refund is only within 14 days of purchase. They advised me to send them the phone for repair and attempt to sell it myself on ebay... DO NOT BUY!
What about three way calling I just got a razr and had a iPhone my iPhone easily did the three way my razr not at all not to mention my iPhone I could use it even after it was just under water for a few minutes but I say now screw Apple try this ask Siri what team Justin fields play for lmao or how much was Jordan love got paid she gave me the schedule three times on that one the first one he still with the bears smdh not with the droid lol straight answers
Simply said, this phone sucks, don't bother with it. Nothing about it works well. You'll always have to open it up to deal with it. Annoying. Getting any kind of protection for it will make it a cube in your pocket. What a joke. Yes, I had this phone for over a week. Hated it. Sold it off as fast as I could.
!! Do not buy one of these phones!! Unless you sincerely don't not care about wasting money. It's not a question of if the screen will break, no it's how fast will it break..... It's 100% unpredictable. Then you can forget about it because the parts and repair are ((very)) expensive. Don't buy one trust me this is my second foldable....it lasted (3 days) !!!!!!!!!!! Save yourself 👍

i dumped my iphone 13 and will never go back motorola has got me for life, this phone is my all time favorite.
I'm glad you like it. I personally hate hate phone. Went back to the s23 fe
I keep trying things other than Motorola, and there’s no point. It’s the best user experience, for sure!
good luck! motorola give no software updates!
Will this phone be getting Android update
Couple years of updates and security patches I believe. Either way you're better off getting the moto edge 2024 instead of this
THANK YOU 4 THE RAZR TOUR
I just got my Motorola Razr 2023 on Last Friday at cricket for 99.99 when I port my number over from Att it's a great
I have the Motorola Coach prime razor 2023 and I love it

Got mine today t mobile for 552$ and i love it ❤

Cricket and metro sell it without the power brick unfortunately
Thank you for mentioning the vegan leather exterior. I love it but could not find any info on that material.
I like the material too, it even feels better without the case
Were did you buy the case from?
Can you still answer the phone when it's shut and read text messages while you're shuttle you have to open it up
So far so good. Had to take it to Cricket because i couldn't make a phone call, but Cricket solved it for me
Where did you get that case?
I got the case from cricket when I purchased the phone.

Snapdragon 7 gen 1 PROCESSOR came out in 2022 so it just turned 2 years old
It's terrible especially in this weak phone
No sd card
The so-called higher end phones don't come with them anymore. It's dumb I know
I play games on my pixel 7a all the time and never experienced overheating issues at all
I'm sure that phone is better than this moto. I'm so glad I no longer have the phone as of today
@@ianwest1624been playing skull girls for hours never over heated
LOL this phone is Sage Green not Gray.
Yea I made a mistake. Looks gray and generic though 😂
its a very inbetween color for sure just got one from boost infinite for $360 love it cool and way better than the A50 I was rocking lol@@ianwest1624
do i hear parasite eve music?
I love my Phone blessed paid 250 30 for phone case I could have got on Amazon for $9.99 instead of 30
This type of phone you want the case asap to protect it so I'm sure the 30 was worth the investment
Bro 7gen 1 didn't come before the 8gen 1 the triple 8 was two different tiers of processor 7 is midrange 8 is flagship processor that is why the editing wasn't good
I know, because the phone folds the price magically sky rockets even though it's inferior in nearly every category
phone sounds better than the samsung flip 4 tbh 👂🏽

Motorola are notorious for bad signal strength compared to other brands. How they sell phones at these prices and people buy it is baffling to me
