Fave thing is the metal & glass construction. Feels solid.

My favorite feature of the Razer Phone 2 has got to be the Dual Front Firing Stereo Speakers. Immersive sounds while gaming, music loud enough to rock out to & a cinematic experience while watching a video.

Yes. When will be rolled out fully to all RP 2, after that team will switch to RP 1 and if we are lucky will be released for end of the summer

So... a year after pie was released and two years after the Razer Phone 1 was released?

It's not about that. If you followed recent news then would be much clearer. Razer Phone team reduced dramatically. So they can't simultaneously work on different models. So priority has got RP2. After comes RP1's turn.
Razer should not have entered in mobile market. Or they have to do dramatic changes or they will close that section in near future

None of that matters to me as a customer. I bought the thing from Three (the only people in the UK stocking it) and pretty much from the moment it came out of the box it's been a massive disappointment.

One that I'm stuck with for two years.

If they can't turn around a firmware update for their device in a year, they've no business doing it at all - speaking as a Software Engineer I know the troubles you can have in both the update and the release process... but absolutely nothing excuses it being *this* delayed, even with a reduced team.
P
I can understand your frustration because I'm in the same boat. But it will be a very good lesson for the future: no more razor phone! I had enough myself from it. How bugy is WiFi connection on my phone and 4g generally. When my contract finish will move back to previous brand. They are loosing customers and can't do anything about it. Only loyal fans staying with them, even if you give to them Nokia 3340 with Razer logo instead.

So I wonder if the AT&T RP2 is going to get pie today?
P
nope that didn't happen.I have AT&T and RP2 and didn't get the update. As usual AT&T is slow as a snail to release updates. I had the Samsung Galaxy S7 Active and that phone always was last to get it. expect the update to come in a few weeks to possibly a month or so
W
Yeah. Camera useless, 4G pretty terrible - and I'm in a strong signal area. I renegotiated my contract with Three to get it dropped right down for the last 6 months of the Term.

Sure gaming is *really* nice, but it's made me realise that I don't care that much about gaming on my phone. I especially don't care how nice the speakers on the non-waterproof front are. Only a monster has noise coming out of their phone.
P
I live in a rural area and on AT&T and my 4G is actually better than the S7 active. RP2 is actually a very good phone and a better upgrade than the S8, S9, and the note 8 and note 9. I've had the RP2 for almost 6 months and love it. Only a few issues with it but it is not enough for me to hate this phone nor not recommend it to anyone. The Final months I had the S7 active after the update to android 8.0 sucked. games lagged and my battery life was cut in half and the cell service was poor plus I had issues with my pictures and overall performance. I am glad I upgraded to the RP2 on AT&T's network.

Razer phone 1 update when?
P
Razer Phone 1 has no information on Android 9.0 and my Razer Phone 2 from AT&T just got the April Security Update and no Android 9.0 for it either. If anyone looks at the Razer Phone 2 on AT&T there is no upcoming update that I see for Android 9.0 any time soon. There has to be something going on between Razer and AT&T that keeps delaying the update.
