Motorola Razr teardown shows the phone will be a pain to self-repair

The foldable Motorola Razr, one of the most anticipated phones of 2020, is here and it’s already getting the teardown treatment courtesy of the team at PBKreviews.

While Thursday is the phone’s official ship date, many who pre-ordered the Razr got their phone early, allowing this video to hit the internet before most people had the phone in their hands.

There’s a lot to take in, from seeing what’s crammed into the phone’s giant chin to the “paper thin” and flexible screen that’s given fans hope there won’t be the same crease issues as with, say, the Samsung Galaxy Fold’s rollout. 

Given the complexity of the phone and the sheer number of screws held within, it looks like the new Razr isn’t a phone you’re going to want to mess with repairing yourself unless you’re a top-level expert, especially given that the phone costs $1,499. 

Better leave this one to the pros.
