Motorola Razr 40 Ultra: we tested the “mobile phone that folds”

The innovative model offers several features to make your life and fitness routine easier.

When Motorola confirmed the launch of the Razr family of devices on the Brazilian market, the public went into raptures.

This is because a mobile phone with a folding screen is still something extremely innovative on the market. But, in addition to the new screen, the razr still maintains its style, being a super thin device and with cutting-edge technology. It’s no surprise that, in a short time, the Razr has become a fashion icon.

Here too the brand attracts attention with its Razr40Ultrawhich incorporates the largest and most advanced external screen ever launched on the market.

Device information

With a modern and compact design, the device, when closed, is the thinnest foldable smartphone in the sector. And it also has a powerful processor Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1.

We’ve tested each of the features to tell you:

• Ease of taking photos

Perhaps the most interesting feature in a group dominated by social networks.

Whether you want to record your workouts or just take a nice photo with friends, this is the ideal phone. This is because technology FlexView allows users to capture and create content in various ways.

You can place your cell phone in an L shape and use it as a tripod. Simply set it to record your video or activate the camera timer while you see the image that will be captured from the external screen, allowing you to find the best angle and pose. If you prefer another option besides the timer, you can still enable automatic smile or gesture detection to trigger the click.

Another great new feature is the photo booth mode , which takes four photos in sequence without the need for a timer. When the pose is ready to click, simply show your palm to the camera – it works on both the external and internal screen.

Whichever option you choose, the device guarantees beautiful photos, thanks to the large aperture f/1.5 Allows more light to enter to ensure more professional photos. Additionally, OIS eliminates small unwanted camera movements, ensuring crystal-clear images.

I used my Razr to cover the Casa Clã event, which took place this weekend (8, 9 and 10 March) and was impressed to see that my Instagram coverage (captured with the Razr) had images of the same quality of photos and videos taken by the hired team, all with their own professional equipment. The image is truly like that of a professional camera.

• Perfect selfies

You’ve already heard the advice to take selfies using the external camera because it has better quality than the front one, right?

Well, the problem is that you can’t see yourself in the camera while taking your selfie. But with the Razr 40 Ultra this is possible. This is because you can take your photo with the screen closed, using the external camera and the screen to see you.

You’ll never take a bad selfie again!

• Track your workouts (and other activities)

With the diversity offered by the dual screen, you have the ability to choose the right position to view recipes while cooking, watching an online fitness class or making video calls with your trainer or friends.

Again, I tested this option at the gym, doing some mobility training before heading to the weight machines and it was truly a breath of fresh air to be able to position the screen semi-folded and follow the movements without having to worry about being near a wall or other support to keep your cell phone in a comfortable position.

• Updated on the external screen

In addition to new possibilities for content creation, Motorola has also improved its external display so that users can access everything that matters without having to open the phone, thanks to unique features such as:

:: Panels: Custom dashboards let you prioritize what’s most important. Drag left or right to easily access the weather forecast, calendar or view notifications. Additionally, an app panel lets you access almost any app, like Google Maps or Google Wallet, from the external screen.

:: Panel dedicated to Spotify: Spotify listeners can control playback from the external display. Without opening your device, you can access your playlists, play or pause music, or even switch to personalized advice to spice up your workouts.

Motorcycle disconnected

As you can see, the Razr helps you stay in touch with everything that matters. But, as we have already told you here, you also need to “unplug”.

Based on these observations, the Razr comes with Motorcycle disconnected, a solution to help consumers take a break from distractions smartphones.

The differential It is the possibility of customizing according to everyone’s needs, quickly and easily. The user selects apps and notifications first. And when you’re ready to log off, simply determine your desired length of time to begin your digital break.

If you need to concentrate on work, you can access, for example, only yours e-mail or Microsoft Teams for a certain period of time. It is also possible to temporarily limit or block access to social networks and messaging applications to enjoy a moment free from distractions, having more balance in everyday life.
