Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6: Is the Motorola Razr+ 2024 better?

[@StevealiciousTech]

The Flip 6 is improved, but the Razr Plus is still the more stylish pick.

[@Involvement82]

Flip 6 has better photos and really good software, the razor + wins in looks

@@StevealiciousTech The Flip 6 is the better made phone, but it's so drab and boring compared to the Razr.

​@@RickyIcecubes i agree😊

[@drcub2302]

Six things to take razr over the flip 1- battery charging and longetivety 2- easier to open with one hand unlike flip where it's sharp edges 3- Sound where razr is louder more crisper 4- Seven years update is a too long for any phone to last 5- The flip its just too narrow unlike razr where you feel more engaged and immersed in both screens in and out 6- Price, razr is cheaper and lastly more fun to use Thx steve for this great video

[@Gary0557]

If I were a flip fancier, I'd take the Razr as it's more sexy.

[@StevealiciousTech]

It definitely is that!

[@unfortunate3256]

Moto razr+ any day. If I could afford it..

[@buckyoung77]

They got a lot of deals going on for this phone whether b trade n or swapping carrier.

[@RickyIcecubes]

@@unfortunate3256 T-Mobile had a promotion where they were giving the standard Razr 2023 away for free to new customers. I called a few weeks ago and told them I was interested, but I wanted to wait until my monthly term with Boost ended to swap carriers so I could keep my number. My order was placed and they were waiting on the green light from me until it got closer to the end of my service term with Boost. When that day came, they told me that promotion was no longer valid as they were out of their back stock of Razr 2023's. I thanked her for her time, and said I'd just stick with Boost. About 5 mins later she called me back offering me the standard Razr 2024 for free, which is actually an upgrade from the 2023 Razr+. Just keep your eye out on new customer promotions. That's how you get a flagship smartphone at little to no cost to you.

[@id.peace7]

Few thing that must've been taken by consideration: The galaxy z flip 6 have ip48 rating. Razr + is ipx8. - Last year's razr still stucked at android 13. Based on that, what can we say about razr+ future updates? -The z flip 6 have a better thermal solution with a glass back and a vapor chamber while the razr with its plastic back might have some overheating problems, especially when charged with 45w.

[@RickyIcecubes]

The Razr just seems more fun and exciting.

[@steven3379]

I just switched from the Z-Flip 4 to the RAZR +2024. It was my third try with Sambloat 😂 never again. Moto for the win!

[@NexxoExxon]

I feel the same. Samsung bloatware gives me anxiety. I'm glad I went with Razr+, a far more superior and enjoyable phone to use.

[@Rr-j4x]

love the bigger wider screen on motorola. but samsung has better software and longer consistent support

[@Jerbato]

Funny stay 7 years with a single phone for waiting for a update. Imagine even the Flip 3 didn't last 7 years since is released.

[@Rr-j4x]

@@Jerbato thats why we should go to regular phones if we really want longevity on the hardware. they would literally last over a decade if you never dropped them

[@kendariusgraham4521]

@@Jerbato my point exactly if you’re getting the flip 6 for the 7 years of update support then something is wrong because you’re not going to keep for 3 years 🤷🏽‍♂️🤣

[@johndru]

Motorola RAZR+ for me ❤❤

[@michalsavatar7]

I recently purchased the RAZR 50 plus and it's amazing. The flip 6 is very uncomfortable to hold in comparison.

[@smartphonefan5226]

Last year, the Z Flip5 was the better flip phone due to its durability. This year, I got to go with the Razr+. I am glad that Motorola improved the hinge and water resistance. The cover display is a major selling point to this phone as the Z Flip's looks dated. In terms of performance, I did care about the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 until I found out that it has been underclocked. The 8s Gen 3 will be fine, it's only the GPU that is a little weaker. My only complaint is that Motorola is still using USB 2.0. USB 3 is mandatory for $1,000 phones and the lack of it is a missed opportunity for wired Smart Connect. Other than that, the Razr+ is a serious competitor to the Z Flip.

[@thanhtinvo2424]

Luckily you change this year, the moto raZr plus 2023 was suck, i am using 2024 ver now and have to give huge credit to moto this time

[@lzrdkng115]

I love my Flip 6. I had the Razr + 2023 and had nothing but problems with that phone. The Flip 6 is solid and feels better.

[@RickyIcecubes]

The difference between the 2023 and 2024 Razrs is huge. The standard model Razr 2024 is better than the Razr+ 2023.

[@Jerbato]

You are just working for Samsung. Simple as that.

[@RickyIcecubes]

@@Jerbato I don't know why, but for some reason the Flip just looks boring to me. The Razr is exciting.

[@blurredsilence]

I just got the razr 2024 (not the plus) for $500 as a secondary phone (my primary is a Google Pixel 8 Pro) and I love it so much that I've made it my primary phone. It feels so nice and premium.

[@ayaniz]

Got the Flip 6. No competition for me. One UI, and all the other Samsung goodies. Camera is a big deal. Flip also feels like a more quality device. And don't forget the new IP48 rating. Not a huge deal, but the Razr has no dust protection.

[@Johnnyiswhere]

Samsung. Better software, plus they offer a full ecosystem!

[@BigAsHell711]

In what way is the software better

[@Johnnyiswhere]

@@BigAsHell711 Motorola software buggy AF.

[@NexxoExxon]

@@BigAsHell711 Samsung bloatware is better. Hehe. Honestly I've had the Razr+ for 2 months now and I haven't encounter any software issue. Motorola is mostly stock Android so if you encounter a bug it's likely an Android issue.

[@Actionjac1]

The camera is not better on the flip 6

[@leo2138]

I don't think that delicate hinge and display will last 7 years. Foldables are notoriously hard to fix and considering Samsungs depreciation it won't be worth it. Most of these will end up in the bin after 2 or 3 years.

[@G.Martinez916]

My flip 4 only lasted 1 year before screen protector started cracking in the crease I ended up removing it and could not find a good replacement and left it without, after awhile I got permanent scratches or cracks in the crease. Definitely wont last 2+ years

[@clarabruselas8444]

@@G.Martinez916 Well, probably not having the necessary screen protector on helped. could have bought it as samsung

[@MineCraffLP]

@@G.Martinez916 They legit say to not peel of the screen protector yourself, becouse the phone gets damaged without it & samsung switches it for free for the first time, after that it is like 20 bucks. It will defintely not last 2 years in your incompetent hands allright.

[@davidmurling4252]

The main reason that I went with the Motorola razr is you don't have to screw around with downloading that extra Good luck app just to get stuff to run on the front screen and also because Motorola does not copy apps on a phone like Samsung does there's Google photos and Samsung photos and Google's this and Samsung's that and all that does is take up some of the storage space on your phone and it's just ridiculous

[@NexxoExxon]

Yep, I feel the same. I can't stress enough to my peers on how Sam bloat gives me anxiety when they try to push the Samsung is superior speech on me. The Razr+ have been a pleasant to use. Best phone of 2024.

[@BigJeffroeX438]

Thanks Sir I've been waiting for your thoughts on this matter. I almost pulled the trigger on the 2024 Razr Plus. But the update was so good on my 2023 Razr Plus I decided to hold off for now plus my Razr 2023 Is still in excellent condition. But if that 4 in screen keeps calling my name who's know's how much longer I'll be able to hold out.😅 Th

[@Sillysoup8823]

Does the screen delaminate in the middle still

[@Dantastic123]

The razr+ seems like the better pick overall at first. But I'm hearing nothing but problems after a short amount of time. Reddit is full of complaints about screen crease cracking, overheating issues, and hardware failing. Like Bluetooth turning off when the phone is folded, and similar issues. I went to the T-Mobile store to test the moto razr+ and the 2 display units both had hardware issues. Certain apps and gestures wouldn't work, they just displayed an error message.

[@Jerbato]

Ask those who bought the Razr stop judging by speculation

[@Dantastic123]

@@Jerbato did you read? It's not speculation. I went to the store and tested 2 units. BOTH already had hardware issues, and the employees said it was the most returned phones they've had in years.

[@savagej4y241]

Thanks for the heads up, this prompted me to do a search for "screen crack razr+ 2024" and the first hit was a complaint about Motorola's warranty regarding last year's series- any and all damage to the inner screen, even by manufacturer defect with regular use, is not covered under their own warranty. Plus it took 6 different agent calls to finally get that information. That's totally unacceptable.

[@savagej4y241]

@@Dantastic123 But further into the same thread, apparently a repair for screen crack with normal use is only covered once under Samsung warranty. It does not apply if it happens again and the repair was $400 for the Z Flip 3 at least. I suspect that hasn't changed three models later. Seems like foldable smartphones just aren't there yet, no manufacturer has a good warranty on these things.

[@Dantastic123]

@@savagej4y241 for sure, you're definitely taking a risk. You'd have to be crazy not to get Samsung care+. Then it doesn't matter what happens. They'll fix it.

[@ChrisB-Truth]

I bought the base model Razr a few days ago, I picked it up from cricket for $128 bucks. I'm definitely impressed by this phone.

[@bretth9096]

How many people would actually have the flip 6 for 7 years? I'm guessing the speed that phone companies turn out new models every year that a lot of us would upgrade probably every 3 - 5 years anyway, especially with the new technologies being released every year. Both look great but I would probably go for the razr+.

[@---us7qf]

How is the ZFlip6 reliable? It was only just released. Doesn't it need at least a full year of use, before it can be deemed "reliable?"

[@kevpatti]

I have the Razr+ and I love it. I think it looks and functions better than the flip. However, you have to be ready to run into more software bugs than on OneUI. For me it's worth it, but I can understand someone who wants Samsung's smoother UI.

[@SydneyS00]

Only 3 OS update, worse software, worse built. Zflip is a no brainer choice

[@3arthandsky]

After over 2 weeks with the flip i really like the flip6 design i think its based on opinion. I dont really care for design or color but fuction is a huge deal breaker for me. I love samsung one ui. I think samsung is much more reliable as well thats why i chose the samsung. The motorola just doesnt grab my attention like the flip.

[@salem444-s9o]

I feel like some of you all just like the razor for the large cover screen but I think its distracting and just gets cover by the camera. Xioami does it bettrr on the big screen. But i like the screen of the samsung, i think it serves its purpose of just being a cover screen and not a full blown phone screen, plus it looks more styling. And longevity, camera, hardware and software samsung wins

[@marlenearroyo1976]

I love motorola I very good

[@justgregnow]

On the flip you get IP48 and a 512GB option here in the US there’s really no comparison. Maybe if your point of looks is the only advantage to the Moto

[@marlenearroyo1976]

I wish I Could Afford next year📱📱.

[@ChrisB-Truth]

Motorola needs to stop with the shiny frame. The sides should be a matte finish like the base model Razr. The shiny metal makes it look cheap and "plasticy". I think they would sell more phones with that one change. I also think the side rails of the frame should be as rounded on the Razr, is should be a nice balance between squared and rounded.

[@zlatko.]

You are wrong when stating that "functional bits" are on par between those two.Functional experience on cover screen is abysmal with ZFlip6(and I assume 6) - Goodlock is ONLY available in several markets, most don't have it. App launching is a PITA with Samsung, switching between app is non existent, notification handling and interaction is plain frustrating. So if you pay for a cover screen and plan to use it( as you should in a flippable device) - Samsung should not even be considered.

[@jejunamja]

The flip phones are definitely cool looking but I just worry about the durability in the long run so I'll just keep admiring on videos and buying my slab phones

[@rolins3279]

As you said, beyond the cosmetic side of the external screen and the slight advantage in scrolling, personally, I don't find anything better about this Motorola compared to the Flip 6, I even think that, actually (because of its price and processor) the Flip 5 is better than the Razr 50 Ultra and even currently a better deal than the 2 above 🤷🏽‍♂️ I also find the outer screen with rounded edges of the Motorola insecure, I don't trust Motorola in terms of software tracking (only the sky knows when it will have Android 15, so Android 16 even let's not talk about it). If you want a Flip, buy the Flip 5 and put it in light mode for more battery 🔋 life, it really has nothing to envy to the other two, and you will make substantial savings. 🙏🏽
