A True Flagship Phone for Those Who Want it All
Fantastic device! I sadly left my Windows phone Lumia 535 for this device due to Microsoft's lackluster handling and murder of their mobile platform. Having used it Android devices in the past (LG & Samsung flagship phones) having this device which is FAST and FREE of all the disgusting bloatware is very nice. It's performance has been stellar so far. NICE battery life! The speakers are the absolute best smartphone speakers I have ever heard to date.The Razer Phone is packed full of power and potential, but the stumbling block is its niche appeal. Its design may not blow people away, but the super stereo speakers and gaming-focused display will appeal to some.
+ Plus For
- Excellent speakers
- Display tuned for gaming
- Plenty of power under the hood
- Against For
- Camera a weak point
- Only a handful of games
- No headphone jack
The Razer Phone is built for gamers, with high-end specs, silky smooth screen and powerful stereo speakers. But do gamers want a smartphone dedicated to gaming?
With so much competition at the top end of the mobile market, and flagship handsets already offering great screens and a whole lot of power for gaming, the Razer Phone is a bold play from a firm well known for its gaming laptops and peripherals, and which is now hoping its legions of fans will buy into its latest device.
This Android phone is focused on two core elements: The screen and the sound.
Its 5.7-inch display packs the world’s first 120Hz refresh rate on a smartphone, and it’s flanked by Dolby Atmos-tuned stereo speakers. The result is a handset that boasts some seriously strong credentials when it comes to visuals and audio, and with plenty of power under the hood.
The screen is crisp, clear and bright, which ensures everything looks great, from text to pictures to video. Dive into the settings and you can select the refresh rate you want for the display, with 60Hz, 90hz and 120Hz being your options. Increasing the refresh rate sees scrolling become smoother, and animations (app opening and so on) slicker.
Flicking between refresh rates and performing the same action (such as scrolling through your Twitter feed) does present a smoother, more satisfying experience at 120Hz, but those without a keen eye on refresh rates will find the difference minimal.
Of course, the main reason for that fast refresh rate is gaming, and we’ll cover that in more detail on the next page of this review.
