here's my big thing with this that I need to spend more time with the device to see if it's a real problem: the screen *lifts off* the device, and seems super easy to break Moto tells me it's confident it won't in normal use tho https://qz.com/... https://twitter.com/...

the new Motorola Razr looks wild, but there are many things about it that make me go 🤔 also they didn't really have to go full retro with the single carrier exclusivity, some things are better left in the past https://www.theverge.com/...

I miss my RAZR2 V8, the flip phone itself and the melodramatic effect of slapping it shut ... https://twitter.com/...

I'm intrigued by the shape of the new @motorola #razr2019. Greater width helps support a full-screen smartphone experience as well as the front display, but it makes it look more squat/squarish when folded versus the classic flip.

Idle observation: Apple has half a dozen or more different folding phone prototypes in the lab. (Google might do as well). They might even plan to sell one, in a couple of years.

Razor is what Motorola executives will be using to slash their wrists if they don't find a way to lower the price below $700 or 800. https://twitter.com/...

This is cool. But it would be 1000x cooler if there wasn't some weird screen flash/glitch upon opening. https://twitter.com/...

Oh one last Razr thing: Motorola added a secret “Retro Razr” mode! It is basically a skinned Android launcher and it is nostalgic as hell in the best way possible. https://www.theverge.com/... https://twitter.com/...
