  • The Motorola Razr Plus and Razr are back for 2024! The Chicago-based company took last year's models another step farther with new colors and finishes, upgraded cameras, Moto AI and Google Gemini. Motorola announced the phones along with new cases with straps that let you wear them across your body or with pearls and gold on your wrist. Perhaps the biggest surprise is a new Bluetooth tracker called the Moto Tag that works on Google's Find My Device network, supports ultra wideband and has a couple of nifty features that other Bluetooth trackers should adopt.

      ​​@@fjaajf Yes there are definitely other folding phones out there. The uniqueness comes from the features they've implemented to compliment the form factor. The fun part is in the colors, textures and accessories.

      I bought the phone, then realized, while sexy, it could do NONE of the One UI features I had come to love in my Samsung. Let me change the color of the app folder. Wait, I can't. Let me change the sparkle effect around the edges for notifications. Oh wait, I can't. Let me pull my app drawer from the side for special apps. Wait, I can't. So I ended up keeping it in my drawer, but getting the new Z Flip 5. Same issue here with this new phone. This is super super sexy, but doesn't have anything close to One UI, which while initially buggy, is now an absolute must. Still, I am tempted.

    Such a shame that T-Mobile is only releasing this in Midnight Blue and Hot Pink. I wanted to use my "Jump" on this phone, since I still have a balance on my current phone. I really wanted the Spring Green color 🍃😔

    I hope it's as durable as the flip.

    That RAZR is truly disappointing - Since January users have to open the phone to properly use Google Assistant, 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... since Jan '24 - still that way in June. Great idea, but someone dropped the ball on this critical function. I wonder if the RAZR50 will have the same defect as teh RAZR40, and are Moto telling potential customers?

    Wish they have the Orange on the plus.

    I'm not in the market for a flip-style phone - having seen the tradeoffs that come with putting a hinge in your phone, I just can't get behind it for any benefits that hinge offers _except_ for fitting a larger screen in your pocket.
    _But_, if I _were_ in the market for these, I really appreciate what Motorola is offering. Their $700 model has a lot of good stuff at a midrange price point, and I saw it for $400 new on Amazon a few weeks ago. If you're in the market for a flip phone but you're on a budget, Motorola looks like the way to go.
    This is of course ignoring Samsung's promotions they like to do - they can be incredible (Samsung offered the Flip 5 for your Flip 4 and $100 last year) but they're also inconsistent and unreliable.

    Telephoto definitely. Will probably consider a flip now.
