The Razr phones are ready to make a splash

The New Razr: Pre-order Status Of The Two Powerful Foldables And New Artificial Intelligence Tools Designed To Make Your Flip a Smart Watch

Motorola even says one out of every five Razr users switched from an iPhone—a coveted stat that’ll make any Android manufacturer sing. The popularity of folding flip phones isn’t surprising—these are standard smartphones you can fold in half, offering the same big screen experience you’re used to in an amazingly compact form that can fit in the tiniest pockets. That’s very hot.

The pre-order period for the phones will begin on July 10, with official sales beginning on July 24. Here’s what’s new.

Both models use a new hinge that promises to help keep dust out of your eyes. The cover screen software has been made more user friendly. There is a new panel, which seems like a good addition, and now you can take a quick look at all of your panels at once. There’s a clever new desk display mode so you can set your phone up in flex mode and play a photo slideshow on the cover screen, which sounds StandBy-ish.

There’s now support for an always-on display, which rules. It has just been announced that you can download and run theGemini assistant on the cover screen if you want to turn it into a Humane style smart watch, which is a great piece of news. If you do turn this foldable into a wearable, the hot pink and spring green color options will definitely make a statement.

A suite of new artificial intelligence tools from Moto is not shipping yet, but they sound helpful. It is a thing. You’ll be able to say “Catch me up” to get an AI-generated summary of high-priority notifications — sounds familiar. You can say “Remember this” and then have the phone record something on the screen that you want to reference later.

To pay attention, it is necessary to record a conversation, transcribe it, and provide a summary. The company intends on making this. all context-aware, so it will tailor responses based on where you are and what you’re doing. Sounds nice, but I’ll believe it when I see it.

Twenty Years of the Motorola Razr and Paris Hilton’s Pink Telephone: Where Has All The Time Comes (And When Does It End)?

I hope you’re sitting down. I’m going to give you some news that may be shocking: It has been, perplexingly, 20 years since the launch of the original Motorola Razr (known back then as the RAZR V3). Twenty years! Where has all the time gone?

The pink telephone was in demand by Paris Hilton who will DJ a event later today in New York City. Even my mom had one.
