7110071100Motorola Razr (2023) review: A midrange foldable that underwhelms
Motorola’s attempt at a mid-range foldable cuts too many corners. While it has a premium, bright 6.9-inch internal display, its tiny external display isn’t as useful (or as big) as rival flip-phones. Camera performance is also lacking, but battery life is a standout for this form-factor.

8310083100OnePlus 11 review: A back-to-basics flagship phone
