I wish it were delayed by a couple months and came with SD 855 (or 8150 or whatever it'll be called) instead. Right now it'll get out-dated too soon. I don't know why Razer decided to time their launches like this.

It's not so late or early since ROG phones have just released, Razer probably just wants to compete ROG phone as soon as possible. But I agree with you since the 1st Razer phone was released with the news of SD 845, and the 2nd Razer phone was published at the same situation.

Speaking of the ROG phone. Some expansion of the Razer phone ecosystem would be nice. The Raiju mobile for example being a controller dock, or a partnership with Gamevice. A "ProDock" for being able to stream and output to HDMI and utilize Ethernet etc would be very exciting.

I'll be getting the phone once it hits Microsoft stores so I can give it a trial run and report any software bugs again.
I'm considering the Pixel or the ROG phone but the 4GB of RAM hasn't served me well on my Pixel 2 XL.

It would be nice to see Razer offer a trade in for the Razer phone 1! Or at least someone offer a good buyback or trade in for the first model.

Any news on software updates for both devices?

The thing I'm most excited about is the Camera, both the rear and the front.

I was already pleased with everything else about the Razer Phone (1st edition), the camera is the main thing that bothered me. But seeing they now have to flagship Sony sensors, OIS, 4K 60fps on the rear, and have rebuilt the camera app UI, and the HDR algortithm excites me.

I had a choice between this and the ROG Phone, and it was hard. The deciding factors were price, $100 cheaper than the base ROG phone (128GB version), the front facing camera 60fps (never saw that before in a phone), microSD card slot, and my love for the Razer mobile division.

I'm happy they added ip67 water resistance, I loved that on my HTC U11, though I rarely used it, but it helps. It does tend to rain enough where I stay. the screen brightness did annoy me too, so I'm glad they really improved that. Vibration was a struggle, so I'm happy they fixed that. I think the RGB Chromo lighting logo is dope. Happy they kept the dual front-facing speakers despite adding water resistance, always loved that in an smartphone and Razer's were definitely the best, even with my experience with HTC and their BoomSound speakers. It's stated that the Razer Phone too has a 103db vs the 1st generation Razer Phone, which had 98db. Hopefully with the water proofing that means some coating that stops all sorts of debris from falling into the speaker grills, that was really annoying on the 1st version.

I wanted to wait on the Satin lined version, but I need a new phone now. I heard there was going to be a 128GB version, but it's not consistent confirmation.

Not all products, but it’s more products that has more than a year guarantee. And it’s may vary depends on region, especially EU with costumers protection due imported products law, i believe Razer Phone in EU has also 2 years same as Blade when I was checking or asking CS (forgot which one though Razer or Amazon for phone, but for Blade it’s 2 years and I’ve email that can proof it and also experience send it for diagnosis with all free payments after over a year usage because it’s covered by 2 years Razer EU guarantee )

Flagship//Gaming has never looked this good, meet the Razer Phone 2: http://rzr.to/phone2



The next generation Razer Phone is here, and the silky-smooth screen is better than ever. The 5.7’’ UltraMotion display boasts true 120Hz touch sampling and display refresh rate—making this the fastest screen in mobile gaming.

Coupled with the unapologetically loud Dolby Atmos dual front-firing stereo speakers, the Razer Phone 2 supports both HDR and 5.1 surround sound content. Perfect for games, music, and movies on the go, nothing comes close to this ultimate mobile entertainment machine.

What’s more, we made no compromises with the all-new upgrades. Featuring a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 2.8GHz processor, 8GB RAM, and advanced vapor chamber cooling—the Razer Phone 2 provides great performance at work and play. We’ve even upgraded the camera, so you can capture stunning photographs and precious memories no matter where you are.

Last but certainly not least, we’ve added Wireless Fast Charging so you can get juiced up quick, IP67 water resistance to weather any storm, and of course an illuminated logo powered by Razer Chroma for full on customization.

Premium flagship features combined with industry leading gaming performance—this is the all-new Razer phone 2. This is Flagship//Gaming: http://rzr.to/phone2

when will the 128 gb version be available?

The first time around the phone wasn't designed specifically to be on the Verizon servers, now that the Razer Phone 2 will be, I might seriously consider upgrading my phone from the Note 8 that I have now.

I'm finally taking the plunge, as soon as they release it in Australia.

I've only been on iOS the whole time I've lived here (my iPhone 4 was a better fit for what I needed to do than the Blackberry I brought from the US), but it's time for a new phone for me. I was actually looking at finally getting the first gen RP1 and then the "flagship countdown" started. I've got a gig next week with some per diem plus some OT this month, so my wife is totally on board with the difference between the price of the RP1 and RP2 (strange how any posts where I mention money, there's always something about permission from my wife).

Although the price drop on the RP1 EVERYWHERE is making it difficult to wait ... I hope the prices are still that low if the 2 is sold out here before I get to order one.

I jumped at the Razer 1 but wished I hadnt. Massive bluetooth issues and poor customer service means that Razer 1 UK users havent been able to use full bluetooth connectivity for 5+ months. Seems a good phone, customer service and support will let you down. I'm keeping clear and cant wait for my contract to be up on my Razer 1 so i can get rid of the damn thing...

Glad to see they took my advice on the LED sign on the back and waterproofing. Now if only my blade had such a feature...

/all-i-want-from-razer-phone-2.38455/

The new sony that I bought in august was defective so I'm back to using an iphone temporarily :slightly_sad:

I'm seriously considering it. My wife has a galaxy note but they are so expensive, all I use my phone for is phone calls and music so it seems like a waste. The size is quite large but I could use it as an excuse to leave my phone at home more often. :)

Razer literally gave me exactly what I asked for and I need a new phone. I guess because it's razer I'll buy from Microsoft store with a big warranty so if something goes wrong I'm not hosed. But nothing left for me to complain about now :cool_:
