EDITORIAL: While Motorola StarTac created the flip (clamshell) phone category back in 1996, the Razr Fold is actually Motorola's first-ever fold phone. And they really nailed it with this one: excellent build and screens, segment-leading battery life and the imaging setup straight out of Motorola Signature - company's best phone. Like other fold phones, this one adds multi-window capacity to it's inner screen in addition to tons of other useful features (AI and otherwise). This phone comes with a rechargeable stylus (works on both screens) - a true indication of company's ambitions...

EDITORIAL: The 3rd try at Honor fold phone gets us some great innovation and solutions. V 3 is a very competent foldable with a capable camera system, very bright external screen, stylus support and water immersion down to 2.5m. Battery has seen a minimal upgrade and it shows in phone's mediocre endurance.
