    Every time I pull the RAZR out of my pocket, I'm grateful anew. Thanks again for the excellent attention to detail (and the dogged determination in parts sourcing) it took to resurrect my favorite flip phone, Hugh!

      Is there not a case for that phone? like i get that cases can be annoying with bigger phones but they can be VITAL in keeping a phone safe.
      I have a clone otterbox defender style case for my Galaxy S21 Ultra, it may not be an Otterbox but a similarly designed case is better than no case at all imo.

    What an awesome video! As wholesome as this video is, I can’t help but think about the state of repair for consumers. Motorola probably doesn’t offer the rear glass nor display because they want $900+ from you, rather than you paying for a cheaper repair, and will go out of their way to make it as non economical as possible for consumers to get their phones fixed. Excellent work as usual. Here’s to our repairable future!
