The iPhone 11 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus and Google Pixel 4 pack some of the best phone cameras you can buy, capturing shots that give many dSLRs a run for their money. Even better, since your phone is always with you, you’re ready to shoot whenever an opportunity appears. Even more affordable phones like …

Earlier this week I suggested that the Motorola Razr could be a foldable phone for the rest of us. At $1,500 it certainly isn’t cheap, and I’m not suggesting everyone run out and buy one on Dec. 26 when preorders start. But compared to the $1,980 Samsung Galaxy Fold, the Razr is a much easier device to wield, and it …

Good morning, fellow cheapskates! I know you’re probably suffering from Black Friday fatigue — I certainly am — but I hope you’ll bear with it. Just as stores rely on Black Friday sales to boost their bottom lines, so does CNET rely on Black Friday news traffic. It helps generate revenue, which in turn helps you get incredible stories like …

The Container Yard stands in downtown LA, with graffiti and murals adorning the warehouse’s red brick walls. On Wednesday, hundreds of reporters, influencers and even the DJ Diplo descended on this once-neglected part of Los Angeles to see the gadget du jour: Motorola’s first foldable, the Razr.  Much like people avoided DTLA, they also shunned Motorola’s phones. The company, which …

Motorola’s new $1,500 foldable Razr phone is winking at you. With the right combination of keys and swipes, you can make the newfangled device for 2019 look, sound and act like the Razr flip phone from 2004. Or at least the phone dialer. We went hands-on with the fun throwback screen at Motorola’s headquarters in Chicago before the company launched …

In May 2006, a former CNET colleague and I interviewed Ed Zander, Motorola’s CEO at the time. The original Razr V3 was two years old, and Moto was still riding a wave of excitement from the radically thin phone. It had expanded to other carriers beyond Cingular and the company had introduced a second-gen model, the Razr V3x. In between …

When Sergio Buniac took over as the president of Motorola in March 2018, he had his work cut out for him. The company boasted a portfolio of compelling budget phones that often got lost in the shuffle, and the business hadn’t been profitable in years. More importantly, Motorola, the inventor of the cellphone, had become irrelevant thanks to larger, more …

Motorola is hosting an event Wednesday night in Los Angeles where it is expected to introduce a new foldable Razr smartphone. While renders and marketing materials of the anticipated device have leaked over the past few weeks, our first look at what the actual phone looks like appears to have been revealed courtesy of the Federal Communications Commission.  The images, …

Update, Nov. 14: The foldable Motorola Razr has been launched, and we went hands-on. Original story follows. Motorola’s foldable Razr is expected to be revealed next month, but the leaks are still coming. Noted leaker Evan Blass shared an image on his private Twitter account that appears to give one of the first clear looks at the foldable phone’s design, …

A year ago at Samsung’s annual developer conference, the Galaxy Fold stole the show. It was the first time the foldable phone was shown. A year later at the 2019 Samsung Developer Conference in San Jose on Tuesday, there was nary a word about the Fold — until the keynote turned to One UI 2, a software overlay for the …
