Motorola's attempt to bring back a classic old phone - Moto Razr - didn't go well. Apart from the Nostalgic feel, the device didn't have much to offer. It came with mid-range specs and had a price tag of a super high-end phone. In India, it is currently priced at Rs 1,24,990 on Flipkart , and there are currently zero customer reviews on the phone there ie Nobody is willing to pay so much money for this classic Razr phone.  Probably due to the lack of sales, Motorola is now offering Buy 1 Get 1 Free offer in the US! The price in the US is $1,499.99, so you can get 1 device for $745. Is it worth it for that price? It is still hard to recommend. There is hardly any good review online for this phone, so in my opinion, it would be better to go for some other device, let's say an Apple iPhone 11 unlocked which is priced lesser than Razr on Amazon US. In India, there is no chance to see a Buy 1 Get 1 Moto Razr offer as it is still on Pre-order. There is a 100% chance ho...

Lenovo has just unveiled Moto Razr 2019 edition at a high price of $1500. It's a foldable phone as well as a Flip phone, so naturally that high price is expected. Other foldables from Huawei ( Mate X 5G ) and Samsung ( Notorious Galaxy Fold ) are also very expensive devices.  Both Samsung and Huawei had their foldable phones to ship with high-end, flagship specs while Moto Razr 2019 only has specs of a mid-range smartphone. It is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 processor which are now often seen on devices priced Rs 10,000 in India.  So is it worth $1500 ? In my opinion, people who are buying this should be buying this only for that nostalgic flip out mechanism. You can't deny that there is a very satisfying feeling of answering a call by flipping out the screen or cancelling / hanging up on someone by forcefully closing the 'lid'.
