How did I miss that a new Motorola Razr was released?

Priced higher than a new Galaxy or iPhone, folding screen (I def. break that) and all the same smart phone spyware stuff. Am I missing the target market? I do miss my phone saying "Drooiiiid" when I got a text though.

I'm down if they bring back T9 for texting.

The Motorola Edge reminds me of the Motorola Krzr they had back in the day too. Had a Razr and a Krzr and they were both pretty sweet! Price is a little out there though until I see how well it functions in person...

Overpriced tho. Screen has a bunch of issues, my friend worked at ATT and a ton of people were trying to return the phones, the closing mechanism was messing up and screen was creasing a ton.


Samsung has a similar phone too, much better but still expensive.

It was a super neat concept but I heard many issues with them and the screen and/or folding mechanism. I think the biggest thing however was nobody wanted to pay more money for a motorola than a flagship iphone or galaxy.

One of the guys I race with has one. It was confusing at first, I saw it sitting in his seat after he jumped out and handed it to him. I walked away confused why an engineer, younger than myself, would have an old ass flip phone.

Turns out I was really wrong lol.

That's exactly it. Why would I pay $1,400 for a phone that gets curb stomped by phones that cost half that.

The Motorola Startac was the ultimate baller status symbol. If you had a Startac you wrote checks and snapped necks, big balla shot calla

Shit, I just want my Nextel back. That wallow talkie system was the best thing ever for our close knit group. Hell, I practically never dialed a number for years.

Yess!! The Slvr was actually the one I was thinking of that the Edge reminded me of. Funny thing is I got one of those too after I broke my Razr back in the day haha. Think I paid like $100 or less for it used in pristine condition back when phones were cheap and all unlocked lol

Till this day that is my all time favorite Phone I swear. I bought that shit while in the Police Academy 25 years ago lol and it was $600 freaking dollars lol. I just loved how it slipped in and out of that little holster!

read reviews and not very good but loving this holster!
This thing was awesome back in the day:
