My favorite feature is definitely the Game Booster. It can make the games amazing or you can customize to conserve battery! Thanks to the devs for working so hard on the Razer phone 2!
If I had to pick just one, my favorite feature on my Razer Phone 2 is the 120hz VRR screen. Mobile games have never been this smooth before. Super excited for the Android Pie update, downloading it right now. Huge thanks to the team that made this incredible device possible!
hey thanks, guys for this update. my favorite feature is actually the battery. it's so big, and even with the screen set at 120htz, it still lasts all day. Speaking of the screen, that's amazing too. going back to 60 kinda makes me cringe a little now.(lol)
The dolby atmos is my favourite audio feature, being able to change the equalizer to benefit the sound I'm playing from games or music really makes a difference, even on the built in speakers and I've heard it's better with the Hammerhead headphones.
Mine is the speakers screen game booster. Heck really the hole phone it's definitely been my favorite phone.
Favorite feature is the battery life and the amazing screen!
My favorite feature has to be the 120hz display. It looks gorgeous when scrolling through the UI and playing supported games. Absolutely stunning and can't be found on other devices
Definitely has to be the massive battery and Vapor Chamber Cooling System. Long hours of playing games or watching videos and the phone doesn't run hot at all, especially while on the charger!
Screen is definitely #1. The 120hz and the fact that it doesnt have those absurd rounded edges that make gaming a pain on other flagships.
RP1 here...Favorite feature is the speakers. When my twin 3 year old boys refuse to wake up from a nap I simply pull my phone out, que up Van Halen's Panama or Hot for Teacher, press play, turn the volume way up and suddenly my boys are up and dancing...much easier and much much more entertaining way to end nap time.

Definite shout out to rRazer and it's development team in putting out 2 awesome phones...just hope it doesn't end here!
My favorite thing about my Razor phone 2 is the audio quality when watching YouTube and twitch.

Ps the "what is that?!" When a co-worker notices the chroma logo is definitely a close second

When will the giveaway winner be announced?
That amazing 120hz screen. Almost all my friends who are not aware of Razer and might not actually fit in the demographic stops in their tracks when they watch me use my phone, ask me about it, and express their desire to move from Apple to it. ♥️

I've been an walking ambassador of sorts, converting all that I can to the cult of Razer.

Thank you to the wonderful razer team! In love with the widescreen, 120hz display, made possible with a pc-like 2.8ghz of processesing power. Such a smooth display, perfect for gaming.
My favorite feature of my Razer Phone 2 is the 4000 mAh battery. I can have long Pokémon Go sessions without running out of battery and when I don't play I can get more than 6 hours of screen on time.
The entire reason for choosing the Razer Phone 2 over other smartphones was the 120hz variable refresh rate display.
Thanks for Pie! My favorite feature is 1440p120fps gameplay on supported games. It's truly unreal.
I switched from iPhone and had never use an Android phone and I can say I love everything about the Razer phone!!! Never going back to Apple!!!! If I have to pick one thing it's the buttery smooth 120Hz!

The massive battery hands down. As someone who switched from an iPhone it is so convenient to not have to charge during the day and just come home and plug it in at night and not have to do it for another 24 hours (or atleast 18 hours).
I have to say that my favorite feature that I mess with by far it the RBG logo on the back.

It really gets people's attention and makes them ask questions about my phone.

Hmmm, was thinking what thread would be placed 5th now that no new releases are upcoming.
