Razer Phone 2 Hands-On By PhoneArena

Gaming company Racer is back for round 2 in the smartphone market and that's no small feat in the often ruthless space the racer phone 2 is the second smartphone ever with 120 Hertz refresh rates. Second, only to the original RAZOR phone with monster silicon inside a completely new camera experience and some pretty cool new design elements. The razor phone 2 still manages to sell for just $7.99 just looking at that price and the new chroma back has us salivating. So, let's dive in for the first hands-on look when unofficial photos of the alleged razor phone to face surfaced. Many commented on the striking similarities to the original razor phone and that's ok with razor. The company says they like the square look, and it isn't going anywhere.

Aside from this aspect, the phone was redesigned in a few key ways, starting with the face underneath the speaker. Grilles are larger, stereo speakers and, while you won't see the difference, you'll certainly hear it turning the device around, though you'll find an all-new glass back, complete with a reimagined and revamped dual camera setup and razors illuminated chrome, insignia below it more on the cameras in a bit. We can't stop staring at the pulsing of Sydney. Not only can you customize the pulse pattern and colors, which appear the razor's also programmed this to light up from notifications and do so based on the primary color of the app the phone will illuminate with blue if you receive an Outlook notification or red for Gmail and so on, a feature compatible with all apps, which is also featured on razors separately sold wireless charging stand. Lastly, the other big and necessary addition is the certification of ip67 dust and water resistance.

The display has also been improved. Max brightness is nearly doubled over last year's paltry 364 nits, now reaching a much more versatile 645 minutes. This 5.7 2 inch, quad HD display still employs its most clear advantage with his buttery smooth 120 Hertz refresh rate, while also improving on overall colors and dynamic range speaking of dynamic range. Watching video on the razor phone was a treat it's currently. The only smartphone certified by Netflix for HDR content and Dolby surround sound 5.1 colors appear deep in vibrant and motion is, of course, very smooth. Razor doesn't do much to the aesthetics of Android 18.1 loaded within, but does replace a few regular apps like calculator and contacts with some razor built, green icons, game booster and the chroma app are among the more proprietary features, though built with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8:45 and a gigabyte RAM with 64 gigabyte storage. Razor phone is meant to perform as far as day-to-day tasks.

Oh, you'll not be left wanting for anything, especially with the beautifully smooth flow of the 120 Hertz screen. Racer says their new phone can last through ten hours of screen on time at 120 Hertz, while the original could only do 10 hours and 90 Hertz compared with the same four thousand William hour battery of last year. We're pretty hopeful, of course, long bouts of intense gaming will be quite a drain, but our tests put the original at the top of the charts for regular usage. So we're optimistic for its successor. We're also glad to see that the new glass back allows for wireless charging and the razor phone 2 comes with a Qualcomm, quick charge, 4 plus cable for quick and effortless charging able to juice up from 0 to 50% in just 30 minutes.

Racer wants this beast to be your daily driver, but of course they want you to take it out on the open road and open up that throttle to throttling. Actually is what Racer worked to combat the hardest here: utilizing the same vapor chamber, cooling system found in razors laptops and indeed last year's razor phone. The companies literally expanded the reach of this water cooling system by widening it to span across the phone, not just the processor. This paired with the latest Qualcomm silicon means longer gaming without throttling and up to 30%, better performance overall razor says: razors also rebuilt the camera hardware and software almost entirely from the ground up we're looking at a dual 12 megapixel camera setup and back with telephoto and wide-angle lenses, an optical stabilization on the wide-angle camera. Even the space between the camera has been carefully calculated for optimal results in portrait mode.

The new experience is quite evident in the camera interface Razors the highest priority here was increased, intuitive nests and quicker more fluid operation. This also carries due to photo capture which uses a new autofocus algorithm decreased capture. Latency we're happy to hear that a camera is overhauled, since the previous Racer phone left a lot to be desired in these very aspects, but all sounds well on paper here. So we're excited to see what the final product produces. The 8 megapixel front-facing camera also sounds promising, with its ability to record or stream content at 1080p at 60 frames per second two additional mics for noise.

Cancelling should make video calls and game streaming a quality experience. The racer phones, who aims to offer a premium experience in all aspects, top-of-the-line internals, a revamped design and cameras built from the ground up, are music to our ears and exactly what we wanted to see from the razor phone successor, but canon out daily drive the best in the biz and out game them. That remains to be seen. But pricing, the razor at $7.99 isn't a bad start.
