@@TechOdyssey really like both of these, love the leather on all of them, and how they look. I only hope Moto has a plan for trade in incentives.. pre orders starting the same day Samsung will announce and open pre-orders for the flip 6 is either genius or malpractice..either they need to have a great incentive to buy or they known they have the better phones hands down. Is lf Samsung doesn't bring the heat I am thinking one of the Razr phones will be my next phone. Loved my moto phones from the moto z to the OG edge. Only switched to Samsung for the flip. Now I might be back.. especially if the flip still doesn't support dex and both these have ready- for.
Unfortunately, it is a stand-alone device, while the Z Flip is part of the Samsung ecosystem. But it looks promising. I have the Z Flip 5 but have enjoyed Motorola devices in the past.
@Kazekoge101 I never had one, but I remember it all the same. at the time cell phones were pretty chonky, so having a really slim flip phone with nice buttons seemed like the future
Aren't the cameras terrible? I swapped between Razr and Pixel 8 and I always go back to the Pixel 8 at the end of the day. It's so slow and choppy, frustrating at times.
@@vpkb In a straight comparison to a Pixel or any other higher end camera centric Android device, any Moto will be behind. Id say while the cameras aren't as good, a competent and even expert photographer can close that gap. It's always been about what drives your mobile device purchasing needs. Cameras are important but not what drives my choice in a phone. Other than the cameras and a lackluster update and patching schedule, Motorola is a solid alternative to Samsung or Pixel, especially in North America where we do not have easy access to Chinese branded devices.
The last time I had a Motorola phone was more than 12 years ago. When they brought back the Razr a few years ago, I was psyched, but then disappointed when it didn't come to the US. I tried the Z Flip 2 and wasn't impressed, and when the Razr 2023 came out, I had already opted to go with a Samsung S23 Ultra which I am still currently using. I like so much about these phones, but am scared to be stuck with one that is disappointing compared with what I have now.
Just picked up the 2023 plus model a week ago, while id like the newer cpu and few upgrades, I think it will still be more than capable enough for now.
I'm pretty pumped up about the new Razr 2024 I still have my Motorola Razr 2023 And I got to say it's held up very nicely still looks like the day I took it out of the box so I'll be upgrading to the new 2024 edition and passing This along to the wifey thanks for the video keep up the good work my friend can't wait for your full review
Please test out the video recording on your review. I had the 2023 model razr+ and had to return it. The audio on video recording at least on a loud environment was not good at all. If Motorola fixed it might consider on trying the razr again 2024 model.
Super nice looking devise, love the red color as I did last years model. Purchased the Samsung flip 5 last year just based on reviews I had read concerning the Samsung having the better hinge. Love my flip 5, no problems with it and plan to keep it several years but still just love that red color on the Razr.
@techodyssey Thank you so much for sharing! Love your videos. Can you tell me what “color” that plus is? I’ve been looking for that version in the advertised plus colors and none that I see have that kind of two tone back like the one you have there. Thank you in advance.
This years Motorola Razr 50 Ultra apparently comes with a 68w charger but only charges up to 45w? Not sure what that's all about? This years upgrade looks awesome. Not sure whether to go with the green or the two tone blue. That Moto Tag is awesome. I wasn't aware of this product. Thanks for informing us. I'm going to look into it and get one. :)
Only thing I'm worried about is the display breaking..have read too many comments about it, alot say theirs only lasted 3 months and some say less than 3 months. Id really love to have this phone but idk.
So I gave my grandson the 23 Razr + and have been using the Zflip 5. I prefer Motorola over the Samsung other than Samsung's eco system.. Do you think the Z flip 6 will compare to the new Razr+? Stuck in a loop of which way to go. Thanks!
If you had your choice of Razr+ 2023 or the new Razr 2024, which would you pick? I don't do any gaming or intense stuff on the phone so don't know what the MediaTek is like with everyday usage, compared to the Razr+ 2023 Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1
They look good and the hardware is pretty good, but you just gotta be OK with really limited software support if you live with that then you can be happy with the phone
I wonder if Motorola came up with a solution for overheating. I got a new Razr 2023 a couple of days ago because my previous device literally fried and went blank. Overheating could be software related because of the lack of updates.
I am going to downgrade from the S24U as I find it to big and looking at the Razr plus and the Flip 6 I like the look of the Razr just not sure how will stack up against the Flip 6 and being a Samsung user wondering would I be disappointed moving away from Samsung? any thoughts?
Owning the 2020,2022 and ultra 40 razr i will skip this 50 ultra due to lacklustre os updates,on the Motorola community forums not one agent can give us any idea when the 40ultra will be getting our android 14 updates,as for security updates i have been getting the bimonthly security updates,im in Australia,as the agents have stated on the forum security updates are done per phone,not the whole region, in America others have the latedt security patches others are still on May 2023,this is the same for all regions, as for me this will be my last razr untill Motorola/Lenova release updates in a timely manner...I hope this helps a few ppl decide.
Looks so nice but I’ve been an iOS user for 11 years now and love Apple Pay. 😢if Apple doesn’t come with something good this year I think I’ll switch to rzr
If the Plus version wasn't glossy, it would be perfect for me. Gloss is so outdated and is extremely susceptible to fingerprints. I like the matte design of the other one better, but the front display is unfortunately smaller.
I loved the design of the 2020 razr but the os was so bad and the quality was not good coming from a samsung at the time. Now it looks on par with a nice flag ship but in a fun design!
2023 Razor Plus - I regret buying it. I tried to go back to it every now and then and ended up switching back to the Pixel 8 at the end of the day. 2024 seems to be better l, but based on camera comparison with the Pixel 8, it's still sub par.
That RAZR has been truly disappointing - Since January FW update, have to open the phone to use Google Assistant properly, and Moto is not even committing to fix this critical user-function, despite still advertising that Assistant can be used with the phone closed. It is a serious defect for a phone that promotes usability when closed. The Lenovo/Moto/RAZR support/discussion board shows how little Moto is taking any responsibility of a broken feature Moto specifically promotes. Moto RAZR... outrageous you have to open the phone to use Google Assistant, awkward, not as advertised, more wear on the hinge and screen fold... since Jan '24 - still that way in July - that 25% of a phone's typical use life a critical SW function is broken. Great idea, but someone dropped the ball on this critical function.

Most of you American UA-camrs like to make believe you actually have any kind of passion or interest and fully diving deep into Android because that Apple watch on your wrist gives it all away. I guarantee you your main daily driver that has your number that your loved ones and close friends have, is an iPhone because unfortunately over 63% of Americans have iPhones.
It's more like the American UA-camrs who like Android are still kinda forced to drive both Android and Apple because their friends and family members all mostly use Apple. 😂

You'd be happy with it as long as you don't take pictures with it.
2023 motor razr plus had too many issues with the folding screen and possibility of drops causing lines- That phone won't last two years too delicate and the new phone looks cute but looks to have the same issues- Folding phones are more durable and to me the Samsung flip appears more durable nice looking phone but i'll never spend 1k on a phone that looks good if it's not gonna last two yeats
Wow Moto is killing it on the aesthetics if only they would be better about software? Beautiful phones no doubt.
Definitely an attractive phone!

Remember using it back in high school

Yup.. Returning my Viva Magenta 2023 plus and getting the beautiful Green Razr Plus 2024!!
As a owner of a RAZR 2023, it all in on moto even with the lame update security patches. I may pick up the green RAZR 50.

@@samuelventimiglia7327 for $1K, it's overpriced, again poor cameras and choppy performance.
Huge upgrade! I really dig them both 💯
Me too!
An unboxing on a roof in Manhatten.🤣 What do you Americans say? You're the man!
Haha. Trying something new
Just bought this in the beach sand colour, it looks soo nice!
Nice!!
@catfoodbrad6726 Hi there, What do you think of the phone after a few months ? Really thinking about getting this one and in the sand colour as well
I want that orange razr. Right now, I have the flip 3. Ready to upgrade.

I really appreciate Motorola for giving the market great phones...the software JUST KILLS ME THO.
Hopefully software support gets better
I love the folding aspect. I have the Samsung flip but battery life sucks.
Wow! They look great!
They are!
Just picked up the 2023 plus model a week ago, while id like the newer cpu and few upgrades, I think it will still be more than capable enough for now.
Do these new ones both have always on display option? That is the only thing I don't like about my Razr 2023 so I'm hoping they changed that.
I know the plus does. I can't remember if the regular one does but I think so.
I really like the look of the razor phone. I will wait until next year to upgrade
Adam when are those coming to the U.S.?
Preorder starts July 10th

I loved the razr ultra 40, will definitely upgrade to the ultra 50
That crease though, so much better than any other flip/fold (samsung)
yes, the Razr 40 crease is barely nolticeable, compared to Samsung which is like a canyon.
the light grey leather does look amazing hope more companies do the same
Does this new version now support type c video out?
@techodyssey Thank you so much for sharing! Love your videos. Can you tell me what “color” that plus is? I’ve been looking for that version in the advertised plus colors and none that I see have that kind of two tone back like the one you have there. Thank you in advance.
How would you compare it to the Pixel 8 pro? Love the fold factor.
Can you test whether there is a slight wiggle when the phone is folded? I remembered having this slight give in last year's Moto.
Hardware strength has improved.
I'm curious if there's motor tags work on last year's models.
I wonder how cases will connect to the top portion of the fold 🤔
when can you order?
Could've used the SIM tool from the 1st one to open the second one 😁😁
Thought about that but recording on the fly on the roof top presented challenges
This years Motorola Razr 50 Ultra apparently comes with a 68w charger but only charges up to 45w? Not sure what that's all about?

Nice, I got the razr 2023 and I love it, it sounds that the 2024 it's better.
This was a nice surprise!!
Right?
RAM, BATTERY??
RAZR: 8GB/4200mah
RAZR+: 12GB/4000mah
Thanks!!
I need one when is the release date?

Smart move ditching the ultra wide for telephoto.. use the sim eject tool from the open one to open the second box lol
I think it makes sense
I agree. Let's face it, ultra wide cameras on phones suck.
I'm jumping ship probably this holiday season from Pixel to Moto Razr. Google missed the boat not making a flip phone.
It sure looks lovely 😎
Wireless charging?
Yup
These phones are so cute!
Nice video
Thank you!
Nice 😁

😢😢😢
can you hide the front cam?
Sure. Just close the phone 😁
this 2024 moto razr*+ has ultra wide band or not?
Looks great, but the lack of software support is what keeps me away.
Motorola needs to move into competition against Samsung folds. Motorola seems to be the only one that does the fold screen right
That would be cool. The Motorola machete! Has a ring to it. lol
@@TechOdyssey Razr double edge
I want it tho 😮

I probably should have waited for the newer Razor
How about storage and RAM
Are you allowed to talk about that yet
I had the 2020 or 2021 razr and I hated it. I actually love this one though. I pre-ordered it
RAZR should have sharp edges not these rounded edges
The last one was slow and choppy, and the cameras were terrible. Based on that experience, I'm very reluctant to get the 2024.
Which one?
2023 Razor Plus - I regret buying it. I tried to go back to it every now and then and ended up switching back to the Pixel 8 at the end of the day. 2024 seems to be better l, but based on camera comparison with the Pixel 8, it's still sub par.
I see they’ve went with the no charging brick in the box, very dissatisfied at that.
WHY DIDN'T YOU USE THE OPEN TAB TO UNPACK THE PHONE?? WHY DID YOU DESTROY THE PACKAGING?!
Why do you care? P.S. there was no pull tab.
CALM DOWN BRO…… 🙄
Enjoy New York and the good pizza🙂
Thanks Tony!
I'm going to buy the 40 ultra now the price has dropped.
