Wolfizen, 26 Dec 2022the best review, thank you ButtRammer69Best review? Sounds like he doesn't have a life to me, or he's a male gossiper. Hell he's to busy not minding his own and watching videos that ain't no way he had any time to examine the phone and make any type of educated review. Instead of learning something useful or helping the next person with a honest product review he would rather fit in and send himself to hell like the rest of them. I wish him the best.q

    Razor did originally priced the razor too high is big reason it not sell well

    It did go on sell at one point new and cheap but in 2023 u missed your choice to get one If u don't already have a razor phone

    I think razor made a mistake by putting a 1440p screen on a smartphone as this screen res is too high for the chipset too handle

    1080p screen is a better choice for high refresh rate gaming and would of aged better

    Anyway
    With hindsight

    In defence of razor
    I actually agree with razor choice too not update the razor phone too android 10

    as os system requirements higher
    I agree it is not a good idea

    It would make the smartphone less smooth and having too drive 1440 high resolution screen does put more stress on the chipset as well

          Charging port quality and repairability/support issues aside this is the best phone I've owned and it was cheap. I wish I could replace the battery and charging port and not have to replace the phone.

            Why did razer stop making gaming phones
            is it not profitable for them ? there is a market for gaming phones

            it's like ever other brand Nubia Lenovo Asu etc was like wow powerful high spec smartphone for gaming such a good ideal but razer is a shamed of it

            i am confused as too why razer see it this way

            A Razer phone 3 would sell well i think but razer not proud of there phones

              Had this phoneat least 3 years. This is the last year I will have it, I am only holding onto it now as other choices seem suboptimal for the prices and late fall early winter sees phones at discounts a lot. The USB-C charhing ports on these phones are one of the biggest failures of it. They are weak and cause issues after minimal wear or "abuse". I had to solder + tape to reinforce it, I took apart my phone to do that. Batteries go on all phones, degrading in about 2-3 years time to only a portion of what they were. Razer does not support this phone, so not having battery options or parts replacing sucks. The rear camera sucks, selfie isnt that goodand the apps for it suck. The speakers looks great, the phone cases are cool, especially the backlit logo. I wont consider it durable and the speakers do wear down.

              It has bare minimum apps for phone management and less features. Great damn specs for the proce in year 2018-2019, still the tech specs for price hold up, but it just lacks too much now. 5g is a thing to consider in new phone buying, the 4g reception I get on this phone sucks, my older phone gets better service, especially in buildings and never completely cut out, until having to restart for signal.

                For the price, this is still a great phone. These Razers can be had for $150-225USD on ebay. That's FAR less than the current 'best' gaming phones, of which only 1 is under $500USD.
                -Asus ROG Phone 5S - $780
                -Lenovo Legion Phone -$650-700
                -Nubia RedMagic 7 - $700
                -Xiaomi Black Shark 4 -$480
                -OnePlus 10 Pro - $900
                -Sony Xperia 5 III - $685

                            RIP Razer Phone 2 uses Snapdragon 845 for 850 EUR.

                            Better Poco F1, uses Snapdragon 845, but has price 325 EUR.

                            Glad they not produce any phone again

                              Hi everyone. I have a question for those who are running LineageOS on this device, does the custom ROM have support for working FBE or FDE encryption and is TWRP able to decrypt the data partition using pattern unlock?

                                I also daily drive one, and have had no major issues, except a loose USB-C port (very annoying) which makes charging finicky, and disconnects from computer. Speakers don't sound as good due to a few drops somehow muffling the grills. Cases are ugly and hurt your hands, and the best looking one 'Spigen' does not protect from shock (back glass cracked after a light 30cm drop). Getting a bit over the shape as it's hard to hold, but overall it's great. Camera still decent. Battery holding up even with 120hz always on for 3yrs.

                                    Great phone holds up effortlessly in 2021, going to 2022 and honestly could probably go another 3 years performance-wise easy if the battery wasn't completely wasted. Difficult to replace battery, even more difficult to find a battery that fits. Lots of these phones charging port eventually wear down and is now difficult to keep a connection. No support from Razer.

(touch wood) I'm actually surprised how well its holding. I've sat on the charging port while it's charging countless of times, dropped it from ridiculous heights. I genuinely expected this phone to break quite quickly,, but it's lasted me since release. Even the battery is still okay, and with allot of use I get a full day out of it.
                                      Very happy with the device still
