It is surprising what a good tone or green can do for your mood. After unpacking the 2025 Motorola’s Razr edition, I was immediately surprised by the vivid green tone of the phone of $ 700, specifically the spring outbreak of Pantone. It is somewhere between the lightness of the mint and the average tone of the flower leaves. Although he regularly put my phone in a case, the textured back “inspired by the leather” of Razr makes me not want to do it.
That feeling of “fun” can be the most notable of Motorola’s new RAZR line, which becomes even more with the sewer and wooden cloth options in the Ultra Razr of $ 1,300. But thanks to the bold color, a cover screen that is large enough to eliminate the essential elements, and a variety of medium folded modes, only this edition of the lowest cost phone feels expressive. The Motorola Razr is a breath of fresh air compared to standard rectangular phones that are generally in the $ 700 price range.
Motorola is quite aware that the striking appearance of RAZR is a point of sale for the new customer. The company cited the presentation of the RAZR duration that 25% of its customs come from an iPhone. Since this Razr costs $ 700, its price is just above the flagship oriented to value such as the $ 650 Samsung Galaxy S24 Fe – But lower than a $ 800 iPhone 16. And just although this year’s RAZR base is a refinement of the RAZR design last year, it is one that is still striking. I still have many tests to do, but I wanted to share some of my first impressions of Motorola Razr 2025, after using it for one day.
When the RAZR bends as a support, certain applications will show information such as a video in the upper half and the controls in the lower half.
My day with the Razr
The RAZR is easy to grab, whether open or closed, and make the rest of the body of the phone coincide with the green tone makes it fun from the beginning. The Razr also comes in a pink parfait color with a similar leather finish, the Gibraltar Sea (blue) with what Motorola describes as a “inspired in nylon” finish and the lighter sky (silver) that is “inspired by acetate.”
The style and shape of RAZR made him a fun partner for a dinner with friends. I kept it folded on the train and used the cover screen to administer my metro instructions to a restaurant in Queens. I opened it to take some photos of food and street. And I used AI Moto in Bothreens to look for fast events while they approached dinner. In general, he thought, one of my friends found the new reason so nice that he said he wanted to steal it, but because it is such a pocket size, he won the opportunity.
I have also enjoyed using the RAZR so that I simply cannot use phones with a similar price of Samsung and Apple. I attach the kick tracks to the phones for video calls, but with the hinge, I can use the middle phone folded as a support and (in compatible applications such as Meta’s Messenger and Google Meet) they have the video call in the upper half with call controls in the lower half. When it is in this fashionable position or partly folded as a tent, the cover screen can be configured to show ambient information such as the time, while a wave of my hand in front of the phone can activate motorcycle AI for fast questions.
The back of this RAZR has a leather finish that feels adherent.
More to come with the Razr
As I continue to test this Motorola Razr, I am focusing on how functional the slightest 3.6 -inch cover screen. That screen is like a “mini” phone and is one of the greatest ways in which the RAZR is separated from other phones sub $ 800. It can configure it to run almost all Android applications, as with Previous RAZR phones.
The RAZR is also the input level device for Moto AI, which highlights Motorola’s efforts in joy the characteristics built in association with Perpleity, Meta’s calls AI and Microsoft Copilot. Moto AI deeply integrates thesis services on the phone so you can make suggestions based on what is on your screen. Separately, you can still summon GEMINI from Google to access the services of IA directly built on Android 15.
You can activate a motorcycle AI stirring your hand in front of the screen while the RAZR bends like a tent.
There are many different ideas within Moto AI to conduct fast research or organize data. The AI is a particularly competitive space at this time, and I hope to see if the Moto Ai characteristics will help me make the most of the cover cover screen.
As a result, the RAC of $ 700 of this year can dance in two different stages of interest. It could be a good minimalist phone, thanks to its cover screen that can do more functions than the light telephone of $ 800 3. and could also serve as a refreshing alternative to buy the iphone 16 of $ 800 while saving significant money on the $ 1,100 Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6. I will see how the RAZR is adjusted to each method as what I continue with the test.
