- Even after 10 years of durability testing phones... Manufactures continue to surprise us with new ways phones can break! Today we durability test the new Motorola Razr Phone Plus - also called the Razr 40 Ultra outside the USA. The newest folding phone from Motorola is a beauty to look at - with its wall to wall triple hole punch display on the outside.

7:06 - "The Razr Plus is still functional, just a little damaged. Aren't we all?" - That was deep but on the point 😂
Facts
The audio pan at "aren't we all" is so random that it will cause you to jump haha.
That hit hard. 😅
he is the reason why flagship lightweight phones have become very rare nowadays, theres absolutely no need to forcefully bend these phones, only an insane person would do that..
@@thewatchmenz Accidents Happen ?!
Looks like it passed. Still works even with a broken screen and a melted spot on the main screen. Looks like a win of the durability test.
Nah, that thing is gonna cave in your pocket and you'll be plenty upset
Hmm I'd say yes, but then I think that the rear glass cover cracking that way, would be a serious problem if someone decided to put the phone in some pocket, maybe back pocket of the jeans... I really like the form factor, but the lack of support on the back cover is a real shame.
Agreed,it passed. It still is functional.
The exterior screen broke so easily. With normal use, it'd break _fast_
It's less durable than phones that have _passed_ the test.
@@delpinskyskill issue if you put your phone in a back pocket and sit on it
Overall I think these foldable phones have come a long way in just a short period of time. Excited to see the other generations
My mom dropped her Fold 4 in water a month back, and it still works like new, a few models back it would be e-waste!
@@therealmistermemer I had the Z Flip 3 a year or two ago when it first launched, he did a review on that phone and it did better than this one. Samsung designed the hinge technology they are using here. It's essentially an exact copy of the z flip 3/4 with a bigger outer screen. Frankly I think that hollow area behind the outer glass is very concerning. That's the screen that will be bumping into things when it's in your pocket. They should have had a plastic frame behind that outer display to support it. Bump into a table or something and it could be game over. IMHO the outer screen should be the tougher of the two since it is exposed the most. The inner screen is protected at all times while folded.
I'm going to wait for tech to mature a bit. Hopefully manufacturing cost come down and we get a model for less than $1,000.
@@cagukoI don't think we'll ever get a folding phone that Will cost less than $1,000. I just think inflation will make $1,000 not be as valuable as it is today
Considering most people's phones live in their side pants pocket, having a void under the glass like that would absolutely be a concern in terms of screen breakage especially when sitting down or bumping into something.
Yeah you'd definitely want to be careful to keep the phone in your pocket with the screen toward your leg. I think most people do that with their phones anyway, but foldables are such a different shape I'm not sure.
I'm not sure if the apple watches are still doing this but back a few years ago, I dropped my apple watch series 3 on the beveled edge and the beveled edge of the glass was completely unsupported. Despite being the stainless steel version with the sapphire glass, it shattered only on the beveled edge that had no support behind it. It seems like manufactures don't understand how vulnerable unsupported glass is.
I managed to break the back glass on my OnePlus 9 with the included case on it, having an empty void behind glass absolutely won't help
Unless you had something else in your pocket... let's say a cough drop, since we're pretty tuned-in to not putting anything damagingly-hard in the same pocket as our phone... I'm not sure if our squishy thigh muscles would create enough _localized_ PSI to break that outer glass.
*Unless...* that empty void extends the length of that half of the phone.
Even then, I'm not sure, since now it's a force spread out across a greater surface area.
Not saying I'm right, only offering my 2¢ on this. 😊
True but putting a phone on ya back pocket just feels uncomfortable but then again, maybe I'm just a strange human that puts my phone in my side pocket
Didn't expect it to be able to fold like that.

Omg the scraping of the side of EVERY phone with the razor gets me every time. Ahh it puts a chill in my bones
Thank you for posting this, I was really worried about the direct-flame resistance on this phone, I've lost so many phones to that!
Right? I’ve lost how many times I’ve accidentally put my phone on the grill and my burger in my pocket by accident

So nice!
This will be a great phone to bring for when I eventually die.
Gotta be able to take selfies in hell right?
Considering the fragility of other foldable phones, I would absolutely say this passed; not flawlessly but better than most!
Every Samsung foldable aside from the very first one passed without any damage like that. This isn't the worst, pixel fold was, but still not on Par with most other fold
@@Natsukashii1111 well its less expancive also
Galaxy Fold 4 is still probably the durability standard for foldables, although an official dust resistance/full waterproofing would be nice.
Apple will never do a folding phone, that is too much innovation for them
Not many folks will bend the phone like Jerry just did particularly where his thumb was positioned... i def consider it a pass!
that front screen still working after all that and having only a couple lines, but still having an easily visible screen was pretty insane. itll be funny to see someone angrily slam a smart phone shut 😂
how does the screen still work with such a massive crater in it 😭

I have been using the RAZR+ now for a couple weeks, and I am definitely impressed with it. Seeing this video made me feel a bit better about the durability too lol
how about now?
Love watching you do, what i wish i could do. With the cost of these phones. You put me at ease when I'm going to look at getting a phone. I work construction so durability matters to me. Thanks for all the videos! :)
“Is still funcional just a little damage”
Aren’t we all!??
Getting roasted here I never expected 😅
I cannot believe it didn’t give up. What an absolute beast. I’m blown away! This is real progress on folding phones.
It's very resilient
Samsung foldables flawlessly pass the test from a few years
I mean kinda made abit sense since the back portion of the frame was being pressed together, preventing more bending.
The smol screen would probably also not have cracked if he didn't press on the screen itself.
Progress for Motorola sure, but for all folding phones? No, since Samsung has passed multiple times before.
@@fcfcth
Exactly!
1:54 I agree. I switched to a Nokia 225 4G a little while ago and I have felt so much better.
I just got this phone and I'm glad to say its a very strong competitor! I love it ❤️
This device performed definitely better than the other reviewed fold-screen smartphones in the bend test, props to Motorola for that.
As someone who just purchased this phone, I'm glad to see it not fare too badly in durability. Must say, this is quickly becoming my favorite phone ever - even more so than the original Razr back in the day.
Gotta agree. I bought this thinking "if it sucks I'll return it" but its just so fun to use. Moto has really outdone themselves with this one. If the camera and battery life were just a hair better this would be a perfect phone.
@@ezze-does-it ive been using the z flip 4 now for a year almost, cant go back to normal nonflip phones
I'm really considering buying it. However I'm a truck driver and I use my current phone for maps constantly. I was wondering can I use the small screen for maps?
@@TruckYeaDude93 yes, it is a lot more convenient too as far as holding/storing the phone. Only downside is you can't really look ahead very well
The phone is absolutely great. Have it for a few days now and the formfactor combined with the fully standalone front display is a game changer for me.
Always appreciate your tests
As always, great job! Thanks.
This was literally the first ever video I saw from this man, and while I could tolerate the screen scratching test, seeing him pull that blade along the aluminum frame made me literally wince in shock and emotional pain. Needless to say, I do not think you went easy on this durability test, hats off?
Took me many videos to not be uncomfortable watching him tbh. Lol

@@thewatchmenzand yet I see girls with their phone shoved in their back pocket all day long. That screen would shatter pretty quick with someone sitting on it.
@@thewatchmenz or you know, if someone accidentally sat on it or something. not everyone does everything intentionally
@@williamreynolds6132exactly
@@thewatchmenz That also gives a kind of durability test for the hinge though. That thing needs to be functionally working near to 50,000 times or more. Have you ever seen a foldable that has been kept in generic store for a longer periods, that has been used by a lot of people. They have visible scratch crease on the screen just after being folded.
This is an absolute win for Motorola. The hinge is perfect!
I think it did quite decently. It did good on the dust test , burn test was more than what i think a phone would usually be subjected to and the bend test had interesting results. I personally am a fan of Motorola with my first being the BackFlip which was a an inovation at it's time.
Since it's still functional I'd say it's about a 60% pass. If the screen broke like that, which looks likely, it would need replacement or repairs quickly but it would work until then. Still a hard pass from me
i would fail it's ass because that front screen has such a huge oversight
@@GH0STST4RSCR34M you can buy parts for every other razr why would this one be any different?
@@aqua-bery when in the real world is the hinge being bent backwards with enough force to shatter the back glass without severe misuse?
@@aqua-berymy love I've dropped my RAZR+ with no case on concrete with no issues. This test is intentionally designed to destroy the phone and not really what would happen in day to day. I would say this phone is more durable than my iPhone XR (the last iPhone I bought).
I've gone without a case since I got it and it has no cracks or visible scratches. I could never do the same with any of my previous smart phones.
The Motorola RAZR+ is the best phone I've ever had in my entire life🤗This phone is about experience it gives you in reality😉 People are excited to see me and my cool folding mini phone especially in the Magenta color💖❣️💖
@@GH0STST4RSCR34M the problem was never finding replacement parts it was getting Motorola to work on his phone
I don't think the spot that caved in would do that when folded and sat on. That was a very specific pressure point due to trying to bend the hinge the wrong direction. I say it's a pass, especially with all that dirt you threw in there. I'm impressed.
I agree with your observation
I have a feeling it can still happen. A weak spot for glass is not negligible.
Into that empty area does swell the inside flexible screen, but that's not going to give any more backing to that external half-screen. The phone looks pretty good otherwise, especially the hinge itself, but Motorola could have easily put a thin metal sheet behind the screen there, not lost much space inside for the folding screen, and greatly strengthened that area. It think it would fail pretty much the same when folded if you squeezed on it in the same place.
@@GregConquest I can personally vouch for this happening. I had the phone folded inside of a pocket in the rear waistband of my skirt. When I pulled the phone out the outside screen was badly cracked about a finger's-width up from the hinge. I thought maybe the pressure from the pocket zipper pull had pressed against it but it's not possible to have the pull hit the folded phone in the location the crack occurred. There is definitely a give in the glass on the spot where it's cracked so it appears to be a pressure crack. I called Motorola support but without the pricey accident care protection (that I turned down thinking I wouldn't need it and would just pay for a repair caused by a drop) they refuse to help me. I believe this is a defect in the phone that others will experience - a phone should not fail when in a padded pocket! After years of using LG phones I returned to a Motorola thinking the durability would be adequate on this phone, barring drops, of course. Boy was I wrong. Thumbs down to Motorola, and a warning to those who keep the phone in your pocket - pressure against the outside glass towards the hinge area WILL break the glass. Ugh.
I'm literally watching this on my RAZR Plus and I'm pretty sure my heartbeat stopped a few times during this video. Guess I'm going on Amazon ASAP and finding a rugged case lol
First time i watched his video. And now i can't stop watching.. became a fan 👌

Who also turn the volume down on this part in every video of jerry 3:18
Me, every single time. I mute it and turn on captions
I've had the Zfold 3 & Zfold 4 for about 2yrs now. I've come to love having it. I don't own a tablet, nor do I need one. But having the option of flipping the Z open has been great. I really like the looks of this MOTO. These flippers have always been interesting to me, but due to not having much functionality on the Outside...it's not something I could see paying extra for. But now, this is finally something I'll have to take a look at in a year or so, when my Fold4s kidney payment has finally ended. Cheers!
The fold 5 has the same now and it's definitely better than the Motorola (speaking from experience) when I had the Motorola I kept it in my pocket everyday and about a month later due to a slight bump on the table on the side of the pocket in which my phone was in the outer screen shattered. Zfold series is much durable and it lasted for years for me
Honestly, after the sand test I was already sold. But the fact that the exterior screen broke first is also a plus. With general care I can see this phone lasting a long time before you need another one.
I'd give it a 7 out of 10 pass. Both screens still worked and the hinge held up.
The one that is broken will go full black after a while. I had 2 phones in my house break due to damage from falling and they do work for a few hrs but then they go black later.
It is a sort of slow process but you can see the discoloration of the screen set and it goes full blue the keep becoming darker till it's fully black.
@@MrPopo-kn3lx Were they Samsungs? Mine had a tiny crack and the screen died straight away. My wife's iphone still continues after being completely shattered.
@@Brukn0ws one was samsung, the other was asus (good chance that asus uses samsung displays too)

@@MrPopo-kn3lx idk i had an galaxy s8 and im a phone abuser. after 2 years with cracked, thrown, shattered screen, still worked. Then i turned it into a flip phone and no longer works.
@@Brukn0wsSamsung makes the displays for iPhone and their own stuff, so the phone brand is pretty irrelevant
I just bought this phone a few days ago and I love it. The charging time is absolutely insane. I walked outside for 5 minutes with a dead battery and it was like 20 percent charged when I came in. I bought a case on Amazon for 14 dollars and I'm honestly not too worried about breaking it. I am worried about getting dirt in the hinge though.
Same. Loving the phone, tho I'm not running a case.
The thing best about Jerry is that he doesn't add some annoying background sound and only focus on the phone❤.
It's astonishing to see the efforts and risks Zack puts up in making such a bend test. I mean Zack bending that broken and holed screen again by holding it from there. That's outstanding. Love you Zack.
Are you kidding me? it's impressive to you to press against a partially shattered glass that's still mostly intact and is unlikely to cut? What a risk. That's how far this soy generation got xD
id call that a pass. it didnt actually fail the "bend" test, but rather the pressure from your finger test
tbh, this might be worse. you are more likely to sit on our phone than bend it in half.
@@nvcn86Yeah. Some bad luck with where a button lands, and it will pop just like the one in this video.
This was always a problem with phones that have a glass back, it's worse when it's also a screen.

@@nvcn86 but not at the same level of single focus of pressure your thumb would give
I also had the 1st ever flip phone Motorola's StarTAC when I was growing up
Damn! That's the first from you I saw and it gives me physical pain :D That's crazy stuff you're doing there!
Damn, that did MUCH better than I'd expected. Good on Motorola for coming up with this solid hardware despite the flimsy yet flexible inner-screen. 👍🏼
7:20 "Secondary backup screen inside" haha
My guess is that void behind the small screen is to accomodate the flexible screen when the phone is closed. As you showed when it is closed there's no gap in the hinge side so they've probably added those spaces to avoid pinching the flexible display when it is closed.
Very impressive - even after all that the screen still came on and passed the bend test.
6:39 Judging by the size of the void, I don't think it had as much to do with the force of me bending the phone, but more just with *Nothing* being back there.
Nothing Phone: Don't look at me, I had nothing to do with this.
Funy 😆
Im impressed how well the outside screen still worked after shattering.
It helps that the actual screen itself wasn't damaged, only the glass above the bezel.
It performed well than other foldables. Both screens didn’t gave up after so much torture.
Late comment but this is an amazing durability test. I remember seeing the video of the 2020 Motorola Razr.
Looks like a nice phone. I don't know if flip phones should have a bend test as they would be folded up in your pocket. Hard to think of an occasion where the flip phone would bend like that. If the user puts it in their pocket while unfolded that is counterintuitive. Nice video Zach, keep them coming.
So cool ! Love your videos !!!

I just seen a video on the Oukitel WP26 Rugged Cell Phone and I feel like watching you test it and open it up would be very interesting to watch.
I like the contrast...
Absolute distruction of gadgets paired with the voice like guided meditation
I suspect the pressure of the glass edges squeezing it in the reverse bend was what broke the screen. Your thumb went through the just shattered section with a lot of pressure, causing the big dent.
We are certainly seeing more foldable folds this year. Will be interesting to the see durability awards later this year 😊
"more foldable folds"? 😅
This hurt my feelings 😂 I’m glad someone’s doing this work though, it’s helpful to know resistances your product has
Helpful test
I think the front screen also broke because of the metal pieces touching at the hinge. My guess is that through bending the phone backwards the metal part got pressed up against the outer screen, creating even more and a different direction of pressure, leading to it cracking under your thumb

@@thewatchmenz I will say, some of the concerns I've seen people post about the fragile nature of folding phones makes me question how some people actually care for their phones. Like sure, they'll break more easily than a regular phone, but phones in general are fairly fragile and should be handled with care regardless.
@@thewatchmenz to say he's the reason goes a bit too far. He's a reason alongside consumers wishing for longer battery life, a more premium feel and more premium materials. Also keeping newer chips cool makes coolers bigger and heavier
Zack back with his awesome content, keep doing the awesome work
I gotta say the fact that the screen shattered and you picked out parts of it and it still works seems kinda impressive
Motorola is a solid brand. The Incredible Droid 2 was perfection for me.
My S22 Ultra is rad, but i have also Moto G Series that is a solid backup for that phone, damn impressive when you consider it being 1/6th of the cost.
I'm stoked to see them toeing ahead in these types of "real world" tests. They are the OG.
That's a big win. Looks like an easy thing to correct in future iterations, and it is probably unlikely to break with normal use. I really like this phone, especially the outside screen.
Especially when you consider we probably aren't going to be bending the phones backwards. I saw a point made about what if someone sits on it, but I'm sure the pressure from that is much more even plus the phone is closed
Impressive. I'm considering a flip phone if they keep improving like this!
Mobile companies are in need of test engineers like Jerry...👍👍

thanks for mentally preparing me for that
I'd say it's a pass, even though the outer screen turned into rubble, that screen still worked at the end, all while the inner screen remaining fully functional aside from that burn mark. Considering the normal person isn't going to be intentionally bending the phone in the opposite direction, it seems like it will last quite a bit.🤗 Always loving the videos Zack. Have a great day.
I love how nervous these videos can make you even when you know that he bought the phone just for testing
I like how cell phones went from really expensive to fairly cheap back to being around $1000
I'm not sure how the fact that it depends on inflation and the type of "tier" of phone you buy flies over your head.
Most companies have perfectly working beautiful screens and all the works that one would need a phone to do this day and age for sub $200. And if that's not cheap enough there are phones of slightly less quality but still everything you need for $20-100.
The $1000 price tag is strictly for the enthusiasts, nobody NEEDS a super expensive flagship phone.

Ill wait another 5 years on that tech. Like the teardrop fold. Makes sense.
I like it! And I'm a Samsung snob! Lol. Great job Jerry!
its very good bro👍
They made this phone with you mind.
wow a jerryrig adlib!!! 7:05
The one thing i like about flip4 is the case with the ring on the hinge. Haven't found any cases that fit my expectation for razr+
i feel like its a pass since it isnt the main screen that died. its still usable even though definitely less so than before. nice to see that motorola upped their game! hopefully the next model doesnt come with empty space inside and then its a really solid foldable.
I'd call it a fail considering the small screen can break so easily if force is applied to that weak spot. These flexible screens scratching at a 2 is crazy to me. You have to be absurdly careful with these phones. I generally am, but I like a bit of leeway lol.
Ahhh yes why don’t you develop folding glass then
How TF is this a fail??? Who on earth is going to be bending a phone backwards???? Nobody. That is the ONLY reason it shattered. Especially since he did another test where the phone was closed and he put pressure on the exact same spot and nothing happened.
LITERALLY MY HEART CUDNT BEAR THE PAIN FROM THIS POINT ONWARDS 3:16
Pass, it definitely passed!! Minus that void it didn't bend or break. Curious to see if the dust made its way in. Looking forward to the tear down. I am currently using the new RAZR+ and work in a somewhat dusty environment.
The back is made of....textured glass?
Heck yeah, that was one of my greatest gripes about newer phones, everything is smooth slick glass. Phones need GRIP.
Also I think the void behind the back screen is to help promote airflow for cooling.
I agree
that void is also to fold the phone perfectly without gaps.
I’d give it a pass. It only broke due that exact stress. And the screen still worked. Big improvements !🎉
Of which that kind of stress is absurd for day to day use.
it seems like the empty space behind the small screen is meant to be a cavity for the inner screen to bend inwards, as you mentioned it creates a tear drop fold when you close it.
My first phone was a little purple razr flip phone.. I never thought technology would bring us back there!
