You Can Get the Motorola Razr for $300 Off Right Now
If you’re looking for a flip phone with a retro look but with modern features, the Motorola Razr might be a good starting point. The aluminum frame with genuine leather trim gives it a premium feel; it’s splash-proof and IP52 rated (but you might not want to take it sailing); you can hold your phone at different angles for hands-free use; and its 6.9-inch screen isn’t too bad either. But the real selling point here is the price—$399.99 (down from $699.99) for the 128GB model in Sage, Summer Lilac, Cherry Blossom, and Vanilla Cream.
It has a 1.5-inch external OLED display that’s good for checking notifications, but if you’re someone who likes to respond quickly without opening the phone, you might find this a bit limiting. Plus, the processor in this phone isn’t exactly the latest on the market, as noted in PCMag’s review . However, the Razr comes with built-in features like the Ready For package that allows you to use the phone as a webcam when connected to a Windows PC, and its 4,200mAh battery performs quite well.
You’ll find the cameras perform decently, but don’t expect great low-light photos. And there’s no option to expand the storage, so you’re limited to the 128GB that comes included. Motorola claims the Razr’s hinge can withstand 400,000 folds (meaning it’ll last quite a while), and screen creases are minimal and not too distracting—though that’s subjective.
If you want a more powerful or feature-rich foldable phone, you might consider upgrading to the Motorola Razr+ for $599.99 (down from $999.99) or the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 for $949.99 ( originally $1099.99).
