The second wave of foldable smartphones has been
looking promising. We recently tried out the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, which
polished the raw experience of the original Galaxy Fold. Now it's time to
check out the new Moto Razr 5G. We got to spend a day with the refreshed
Razr, and it is basically the same Moto Razr that launched in India
earlier this year but with a few upgrades and a price tag of Rs. 1,24,999. Are
these changes major enough to make a huge difference? Here are my first
impressions.
The
plastic body is gone in favour of a glass-and-metal sandwich. The fingerprint
reader is now moved to the back and supports swipe gestures. You also get a
Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G SoC, up from the previous model's Snapdragon 710,
paired with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The 5G moniker
comes from this SoC's ability to support millimeter wave technology.
At the back or front, depending on how you
hold it, the Razr now has a 48 megapixel primary camera. The selfie camera
above the inner foldable display has also been bumped up to 20 megapixels from
a measly 5 megapixels. The battery has received a minor upgrade — it's now a
2,800mAh pack, which is a 300 mAh improvement over the previous gen. However,
the battery capacity is still below 3,000mAh to keep the smartphone slim.
Finally, Motorola has also tweaked the
hinge a little so that the foldable display is better secured. Moto says the
gap between the two sides of the display is now thinner than a piece of paper,
but it really depends on the kind of paper you're using.
We hope that we have provided useful information to you.
