The fact that samsung, a screen manufacturing powerhouse, has the less cool front screen between them and motorola is wild.
Well back in the day Moto was the top dog with the Droids, so they have to have some good developers. I never thought moto would resurface again!
samsung these days are greedy. they take your money more but give you less.
Not sure how old you are, but Motorola had and still has some of the best engineers in the entire space, and Motorola (and Blackberry) were the original DNA of the very best smartphones and innovation in the space.
Not wild at all.

Got the phone this week.. Loving it.. Zero regrets
Do you have a case on it? How does it fit in your pocket?
@@TH3SLEEPING yes I bought a clear case from FNTCASE.. It fits well, no issues
@@TH3SLEEPINGmy wife just got one and I'm jealous. When I upgraded to an s23 the 24 razr wasn't available yet. Anyways she got the case on checkout from att and it's a rubber case that folds with the phone.
I got the base model 2 days ago and I like it it's really cool it was my first brand new phone and my parents got it for me cuz they know I take care of my stuff and it was also a thank you from my dad cuz I helped him with his job I love this phone it's like playing on a ps3 for a long time and upgrading to a ps5
@@finalsphereps that's great, make sure you buy a solid case to prevent any accidental damages
I just mine this week and I like it better than I liked my flip5. No regrets
Hinge is not nearly as good as the flip 5 or 6. Had to return mine everytime I hit the fingerprint sensor the top half wiggles from the bottom. That's a no go for me
Same here l came from a Z Flip 5 and I like it much better than the Samsung Flip. The Z Flip 6 costs more and doesn't really change much at all. The screens and overall usability is better on the Razr+ 2024. No duplicate app junk and just simply let's you use the phone in a fun way.
Agreed, just got mine today, I am also switching from the Flip 5. I really enjoy that the hinge is easier to open on handed than the Samsung.
@markjackson7879 that hinge will break and then you will be left with a nice paper weight! Happened to me on my razr+ 2023 and I baby my devices sad too. It was a nice phone besides the said mentioned and software support
When I get the flip six, you’re not concerned about the lack of updates, Motorola gives
That flip at the intro was 🔥🔥🔥
If your're talking about the "flick to open" thing he did, that is the quickest way to damage the phone.
It may look cool but its not recommended.
Switched from the iphone 12 pro max today to the Motorola + 2024. Loving it so far. The only thing I have an issue with is the apple pay, which is expected since this is an android. It's going to be annoying because I need to find a different software / log onto the website to make my payments now, but otherwise I am pretty impressed by this phone.
it might just be me, but this phone brings me nostolgia of the Gameboy Advance SP
I've had my Motorola Razr 40 since Black Friday 2023 and no issues whatsoever with the hinge nor the display nor the screen cover.
Just look after your phone. And don't do the "flick to open" thing that you see so many TH-camrs doing. Apparently that will damage your phone. It's not recommended.
Moto Connect is one of the Razr's biggest selling features. Being able to turn your phone into a desktop computer using your TV is amazing. Works well in some hotels too (if their TV's support it).
I'll be purchasing the Razr 50 Plus/Ultra when it goes on sale during Black Friday sales.
Bought 1 today after 16yrs of iPhones…. It’s been a couple of hours so far….i don’t hate it at all ! Definitely gonna take time to get use to it Hahah
can you give an update. i really wanna switch from an iphone 😭😭
@@mielrose5343 @angieee777 Same! I'm considering switching as well, but am nervous about it.
I’m just bored of Samsung and iPhones and bought a Motorola 50 ultra and I love it
They are utterly slow on updates bro moto razr + 2023 is still stuck on android 13 which makes no sense since the 2024 edition has android 14
Samsung is just too much@@MartinBielkovic
@@MartinBielkovic my razr 2023 has 14 since yesterday in Poland
@@dominikzuawnik5877 I'm still waiting bro 😭
Coming from a Moto Stylus 5G I just wanted an affordable phone with decent memory (Moto has been my go to since 2020) but they were notorious for only going 128 thru carriers. So I just ordered this from my carrier and I'm looking forward to using. I do use my Moto for content and it handles it fine. Thanks for the deets.
Great vid dude! I just bought the standard razr 2024 because of the ultra wide lens on it!
I got it because it was only 500 via tmobile. Then I'm gonna pay it off after 2 months and it'll be unlocked. I also wanted better battery life. Can't imagine that tiny bit of screen on the plus is gonna make a big difference.
I did the same thing!
00:01 how the hell did you flip it open like that?!
How about the nostalgia for those of us that owned the original Motorola StarTac? Yes, I'm OLD. 🤪
Just got the 2024 razr on friday after i sold a z fold 3 and bought it in spitz orange its a thin beautiful leather backed piece of tech moto really made these stand out.
I straight up recognize the Giraffes from the Philadelphia Zoo.
Cool to see another Razr+ owner from the same city as me! :D
My regular razr 24 will be delivered in a few hours. Can't wait!
Just got mine. I love it!!!!!!
Waiting for a case now.
@@uk_afterdark plus or regular? I rarely use cases. I got the koala grey color, it's not slippery, but definitely less grip than the vegan leather kind. The leather texture this year doesn't have as much grip as last year, but still feels better than glass.
@@Just4freepremium How do you like your Razr so far?
@@SonicCDspeedrunArchivesI like it for how I'm using it. It's a 2nd phone. I've only opened it a few times. Don't plan to use it open much. I just wanted a small device for calls and texts when I leave my regular phone at home or in the car.
@@Just4freepremiumhave u ever dropped it.. I legit had around 7 dreams of mine breaking because I didn't have a case on it for like two months lol
I'm on my second New RAZR and I have found the screens to be extremely durable. After two years of use, my first one's screen was completely unblemished, like a brand new phone, and my current one is the same after 18 months. OTOH, one of my neighbour's Z-Flip recently krapped out on him after just over a year and the top half of it is now completely dead. I gotta say, if I had one of these new models, I would probably never access the main screen. It's not really that long ago that a 4" screen was plenty for all of us and it still would be for me, I'm sure.
The only thing i did not like about the phone is it is not well balanced and when unfolded it always wants to fall forward due to the heavy outer screen. I have to adjust my grip higher than usual to prevent this issue. Other than that it is a super nice phone.
I find this to be the issue with me. I already know to hold it in the middle.
I was contemplating getting this phone and now that I see you reviewed the RTFKT void dunks (which I also own) I’m definitely getting it!
I order the Razer+2023. I love it so far. I find that I'm using it more than my iphone pro 14.
Would you say it’s better than the iPhone? Besides the cameras? I have the 14 pro and I’m tired of the same old style
@@papiii_toni1300how’s the camera?
@@papiii_toni1300better? No. More fun? Yes.
@@foxxicat14 pro camera is way better. Especially video.
@@papiii_toni1300no the iphone is better in literally every way other besides home screen customization. Really only get this phone for the gimmick. I love my moto RAZR 2023+ despite the camera being horrible. Maybe opt for the Samsung since the cam and video are actually good in that one. One downside is that the front display is 60hz meaning it's less smooth than Motos but it has far better features like better updates, customization, better camera options and quality, as well as the fact that it's more compact. It also might be more optimized I'm not sure though. One major reason I'd recommend it is that it's shorter and wider rather than long and skinny like the razr. Definitely a better experience for watching TH-cam, gaming, and just about everything. It also means it's more compact
Stuck in the apple economy, waiting for an apple flip phone.
2 year wait at least that what the rumors say😂
I love ittt I want it. Tired of my iPhone lol. What music app are you using?
You can still use Apple Music on it
Got tired of mine too even tho I kept that line, just ended up getting the flip6. No regrets at all, they're so far ahead of Apple, that OS has gotten so boring. With the Samsung i find something new each day
Use gonemad
The “crease” in these flip phones is the one reason keeping me from pulling the trigger. It’s just an eye sore that I know would always irk me. Otherwise these flip phones would be 100% the way to go. Great review.
I’m curious your thoughts of a full time iPhone user making the switch? Thanks!
Are you fully invested in the Apple ecosystem? (iPod, apple watch,, iPad, apple earbuds, MacBook, Mac desktop). If you are, you might regret it, but the gap between the devices communicating is getting smaller. Moving from iPhone to Pixel was really difficult (wife had like 200 gbs worth of pics and videos on her phone). Huge pain. Not sure if moto has software that makes it easier or not.
I've owned iphones, pixel phones, Motorola, Samsung, (currently have the Pixel Fold as my daily). I'm tired of hauling around such a large and heavy screen.
If you don't have to have a top of the line camera, and you want a portable phone, then life is short, go for it
I did it and for the first couple days I thought I was going to have to switch back because I wasn't sure I like the android operating system. However now that I've given it about a week I will absolutely be sticking with the Razr I love the phone and the operating system has been growing on me. At this point I won't switch back anytime soon
Not to be off topic, but WOW you were filming right in my neighborhood! I live on 15th and Lombard! Small world I suppose
Got the phone yesterday. No problems. Feels good to fold it and have it small
Can’t wait for mine to show up!
I got mine a week early at random with no notification it was coming. Check your mail
Nice review and practical...subscribed 😊
Upgrading from a flip3. Either phone is a massive upgrade for me
i ordered one yesterday and it is arriving in a few hours, i hear so many people mention the lack of an ultrawide and i totally agree,
whoever decided people needed a 2x lens more than an ultrawide is really disconnected.
this phone is perfect for selfies and people taking selfies love the option of ultrawide,
i can't even remember the last time i used the zoom on my current phone, but i use ultrawide all of the time for group selfies.
i'm still looking forward to having the phone, but someone really dropped the ball by including a 2x instead of an ultrawide,
whats-more you can digitally zoom to 2x and still have a decent image anyway, 2x just seems like an absolute waste of space,
i'd rather just have one camera on the front instead of a 2x.
Hey Seth! killer review. this helped a lot. I do have an additional question.
but as a vlogger, have you try using an external mic through USB-C on it? I just want to test to see if actually connects to external microphones at all.
I just got mine four days ago and I am so in love well worth it
what about volume, call quality, and sound quality?
I don't understand why everybody complains about the lack of ultra wide lens. I'm not sure if I'm the minority but I actually prefer the tele lens for when Im going to hockey/baseball games. I picked mine up yesterday for $900 and so far really liking it because its a tad wider than the z flip
The problem with Motorola that almost no youtuber mention is the poor uodate support and they are very sluggish to deliver them or fix any issues... until they get serious I'll stick with Samsung
That's not been my experience, although it is also not something I care greatly about. I recently got an Android update and earlier in the year I got a Motorola update that has significantly improved the image quality of my photos, especially at night. I think two or three updates a year is just about right and that's about what I've been getting.
And the problem with Samsung is if your phone has any issues they will literally scam their way out of trying to fix it. They claimed a phone of mine had water damage simply because the little sticker inside had turned pink for whatever reason. But it had never been wet. And the problems it had were not at all related to water damage as far as I can see. And on top of it when they sent it back to me they had broken the screen trying to pry it apart and they wouldn't cover it. They might have saved 50 bucks by denying my warranty but that was several years ago and I haven't bought a Samsung product sense, and never will again. And there are plenty of people with similar stories
@@cuchanushould I stop buying samsung?
@@cuchanuI had the same experience with a past Samsung product and customer service. They lost thousands in revenue from me and will not get another cent.
Just went and got the regular razor 2024 so far I love it. ❤
Same I got the Razr in beach sand color
I'm choosing the Razr2024 non plus because the ultrawide lens is gonna be more useful. I will wait for Black Friday deals
After having the phone for a month without dropping it, there is a black mark across where it folds and can't press on much. Be careful, lots of complaints on reddit abt the exact same issue😊
A month? It was in pre order two week ago 😅
I just got mines yesterday and I love it😊
How's the OS? I would be using this phone for notes, reminders and pdf. would it be better than the z flip?
I got mine yesterday 💪🏻
The Samsung Z Flip 6 is a worthy competitor, but Customer Service and after-sales support let it down badly.
Soooo…. Should we wait for the next one to come out for possible improvements?I love thissss
It is definetely worth it for me. One of the best phones I ever had with a great battery and full speed recharging
My first Moto was the Atrix 4G. Bought the lapdock, too. Tried it again many years later, and both were very laggy so i tossed it.
Great devices while it last.
Definitely better than the flip 6.IF ONLY they could fix the software support issues and the camera
@@henryz4312 and that crappy hinge never going moto again. Good luck with that
Any way to use a protector?
Thx man, much appreciated, helped me decide, definitely the phone for. Me 😊 also i am the one who did not know what vegan leather is 😂, and i really appreciate you giving it a calm review not just tryna grab attention and stating the same stuff over and over and being honest❤
Phone looks great, but the software updates have always poor from Motorola 😢
As a former Motorola user I can confirm that’s true
So glad I switched to iPhone 😇
@@TheGamingCanadianso not worth?
Okay but I’m questioning: How is a phone water resistant but not dust resistant? 💀😭
What wallpaper are you using on the external display?
That crease in theses makes me not wannago through with getting two.
For a 1k i don't wanna see that
Waiting for Verizon to get one and see if there’s a deal with it. If. This will be my alternate to IPhone
You need to review the Xiaomi Mix Flip
Will TH-cam play videos on the putter screen?
Outer screen yes
Once Beltron makes a case for it, I'll get one.
Do flips and folds really compete?
Might be in the comments or I might of missed it but would love to see the software support for this device. For example 3 major updates or just security updates?
Hey man how did you add Moto Gametime to the external display? Thanks for the video!
Motorola is fun to look at but the lack of updates. it’s not worth it
Motorola announce that will support this model for 3 years....
Well worth it typing this on my razr + 2024 got fed up with samsung and apple copying each other it was time 4 change for me..
Samsung and iPhone need to stop for a while
@@xboxgamerz22 BINGO!!!! YOUR 💯 % RIGHT THEVE REACHED THIER PEAK SAME JUNK EVERY YEAR
@xboxgamerz22 it's the hype too
@larry-of9kh i believe if google pixel make a flip, i would stay with them forever but now I'm stuck with samsung and I never try motorola before.
@xboxgamerz22 I was stuck in apple and samsungs eco system but jumped ship and got the moto razr plus 512 gb 2024 nat as fancy but damn glad I have the razr all the hype is the fancy features apple and samsung have issues with and copy each other 900 bucks for my razr was well worth every dime.
Is it better then the 2023?? I have that one and I don't wanna upgrade if It's not better
How is the customer service? Screen replacement?
Are you still available to use the old razr? The original one?
wide angle definitely a must than zoom
Compared samsung fold to razr+ that is like compare orange to apple and price for the phone. maybe razr+ vs flip 6 is good comparison.
Dont know why they say... Its not the ultimate phone.... Ill play HOK with my Rarz ultra 40 and its awesome🎉
Is the option for peak display back on these phones?
I just got the Galaxy S24 Ultra for 4 reasons:
1) 200 megapixel sensor
2) Full artificial intelligence support
3) Samsung DeX Support
4) 7 years of support
You don't get anything like that from motorola.
Thinking bout getting mines this week any tips?
How is the build of the phone especially the hinge. Does it feel flimsy ?
@@prats3971 all motos feel flimsy because the are returned mine for a flip 5 prime day special much better
Been with Motorola devices since the 90s. I remember my first pager from them in 1997-98ish... Lol love Motorola,going from the 5g stylus to getting my wife and i the new soon to be old 2024plus. Crazya as hell tho 2300.00 total with two extra things. 999.00 apiece...but hey,we get two free rechargable ear buds. Lol lmfao...2300.00 ... sh-t better B-me!!! Shakin My head...i know my wife will but Motorola and these prices for these phones that turn to sh-t with in 6month to a year.
Trying to decide if it’s better than the iPhone 15 or not for me
Anyone thinking about going from an original Google Pixel Fold to this? I think I'm tired of having such a large phone.
Motorola can it listen the phone call while the phone is folded?
I just talked on the phone with my AirPods Max while the phone was shut. So I would say yes. 😊
I love my find N 2 flip
I want this phone! I just got a new IPhone 15 Plus but maybe I can get this one for fun.
I just bought one on sale for $768.99. Excited yet nervous, reviews state the screen is a potential failure point.
Hi.can u actually reply to sms and messenger using the cover screen?what about answering and making calls?
You have to open the phone 📱 to answer calls
can this last the whole day on heavy usage?
u da man 🤙🏼 🍺 🎯, Philly rep'n preciate bro 😎 don't 4get pinch 2 zoom 🔎
How is the battery life?
Got it 2 days ago it has been amazing
Got mine 5 days ago. Unfortunately, after purchasing it I've realised that there are no cases and screen protectors available for it yet. So it is sitting in my drawer at the moment waiting for the items to arrive from china in 10 days..
There are cases and screen protectors for it Amazon is where I got mine
@@only3ammo cases and screen protectors really diminish the device imo. I've only broke one screen in 25 years though, so maybe I'm just not clumsy.
I have a good case Ive gotten on Amazon
Amazon is selling tons of cases for this phone already. And Motorola is selling the originals there too, best thing is that they match the colors of the device ($29.99) I don't think I can share the link without being flagged but will try.
I got the original color matching case from Amazon. Also got a screen protector as well with camera lens protectors.
I have the moto razr plus 23 and i love it i had a iphone and i wanted a flip back so i got the moto
You Are Expert...
You should say..is it worth or not?? Just because of I want to buy this one....
Definitely worth it. I worked at a Verizon wireless store for about 3 years. Once the Razr came back I wanted it. But finally in 24'. I pulled the trigger and bought the Razr 24 in beach sand.
I have been buying Pixel device's and Motorola phones. For a while. My favorite two brands .
LinkedIn and tiktok are your two home screen apps?!? 😂
Razr plus or galaxy flip 6?
Does it have the retro mode
Flip 6 and this…Resolution should be at least 1440p for $1000 I’m good. Maybe if it was 600 lol
Love the video
Me too😊
Just got mines today
do you have a brother named chris?
I would switch from iPhone but then my watch won’t be compatible 😢
Does this have finger print senor or no? Lol it's crazy how that's not just mentioned in these now days
Both the Razr and Razr plus have fingerprint scanners on the power button.
Think it’s time to switch from my iPhone
I did. Coming from 13 pro max. It,'s a strange but nice experience 😊
I'm leaving iPhone for this device
Unpopular opinion: I'd say Motorola's photo processing is better than Samsung's because Samsung loves to over-sharpen and over-smooth so much that the fine details are lost. Moto photos are nowadays looking like Pixel's and I'm loving it!
A phone that folds yet they can't make a screen that won't crack
You don't remember the turbo 2 ?!
Worth it YES❤
I'll just wait for the Pixel 9 Pro
Watching on plus
