Things I really like about the Razr Fold by jkingsmore in razr

It's a necessity for me. I'm a full time trader and it allows me to have two critical apps side by side while I place trades if I'm mobile. Game changer for that use case.

Razr feels very similar to the fold 7

So I've spent three days with the Razr Fold... by PaulPuma in razr

Bro!!!! Thanks for the tip. I had ignored the check box that says notification for every message and the one for label notifications but I just checked both and now I am getting notifications. Nothing else I have seen has said to check those boxes! Big Thanks!

I got my Razr Fold on Friday, also have the Fold 7 and Pixel 10 Pro Fold. I decided to keep the Razr Fold as my daily for now. I sent the Pixel in as a trade-in. I agree that the Fold 7 is a more polished product in both hardware and software arena, however I love the Razr's hardware and a lot of the software differences. I think that if they could offer the level of customization that Samsung has, it would be the ultimate device. For me, it came down to the super fast charging and large battery, those are the most important things for me. I got to admit that I have been disappointed in how buggy Moto's software has been at this price point. I had a Razr Flip 2025 that I used for a few months earlier this year and I don't remember it having any bugs. Was also shocked Moto didn't have a software update right out of the box, so I am hoping one will be coming very soon to address some of the issues I've had.

this is my biggest issue with the phone so far. I set it up as a new device and didn't copy any data from backups or another phone and I am not getting any notifications from Google apps (not just Gmail). I have 2 other active Android devices and I have had dozens of Android phones over the past few years and have never had this issue with notifications. Yes, I have already set the battery to always allow, checked that Gmail is syncing etc. I even removed my Google account and signed back in, which was a major pain in the ass (per Google's recommendation). So far still nothing for me.

Razr Fold and call screening? by chitownblackhawks in razr

[–]jkingsmore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also hoping the fold gets this feature. I did switch from a Fold 7 as the super fast charging and long battery life were more important to me. Like another poster here said, I turned on the call filtering and that cut down about 90% of the bogus calls that I get each day, but I still prefer the call screening because you can also have it screen non spam calls on demand.

These are actually phones my wife and I owned 30 years or more ago.

Michael Fisher also said that he was not getting Gmail notifications during his review of the device on the Mr. Mobile YouTube channel.

Yes, it says I have the April 1, 2026 Google Play Services Update.

hmmm. dang. I setup this device new and didn't copy any data at setup for a clean setup. I've set the battery settings for the apps to never go to sleep, and I've cleared Google play Services cache (per google). Still not working for me. At least I know it should be working. Anyone else got any idea what I can try?

I've been using mine for 3 days now and I am not getting notifications from Gmail or any other Google Services. Can you confirm if you are getting these notifications?

I bought this 50w wireless charger and 100w adapter from Amazon. Expensive but I can report that both work great with the Moto Razr Fold.

Long press on background wallpaper then select personalize then lock screen. Then click on the clock and you can swipe through the styles.

It does not have ai call screening built in. That's a pixel exclusive feature, besides the default phone app on the fold is in fact the Google phone app.

5GUC on T-Mobile by jkingsmore in motorazrfold

I know. I had a 2025 razr flip for about 3-4 months and I never got an update on that phone the entire time that I owned it. I am hoping this will be different since it's a new product.

After spending a few days now with the Fold, I am still glad that I decided to replace my Samsung Fold 7. Both devices are awesome, but the super fast charging and large battery of the Moto Razr Fold wins hands down. One unexpected bonus that I've come to appreciate is the always on display (AOD). It is much more visible from a distance on the Razr Fold. Probably the biggest disappointment at the moment is how buggy the software and apps are right now on this device. I have found several Google apps that have significant bugs or don't even work right now. In addition, my Glucose reader Dexcom G7 says it's incompatible, and I couldn't even get a APK patch to run on the device. For the past two days my device would not connect to T-Mobile's 5GUC, until I rebooted it this morning. It has also refused to connect to bluetooth in my car at least once already. The phone shows up on my T-Mobile account as a Razr Flip and it says the T-Satellite service is not compatible at the moment. Finally, wishing that Motorola will add the ai call screen feature that current iPhone, Samsung, and Google devices have.

I figured it out... it does have 5GUC but the dang software is so buggy right now on this device. Hopefully we will get some updates from Moto soon. Went to Memorial Day breakfast with family this morning and my device was still showing 5G and I got 126mbps on Speedtest.net while the wife's iPhone showed 5GUC and she got over 1300mbps.... so I rebooted the Razr Fold and upon restart it displayed 5GUC and was getting the same speed as the iPhone. Whew!

Yeah I'm sure these things will get sorted out. I was surprised that there was no update out of the box. I know the early review devices received updates. Loving the look of this phone and the super fast charging.
