I just love to play games on smartphones and Razer phone 2 is an amazing smartphone which comes with the specification for heavy games. Right now I am using Honor Play and this is one of the finest gaming smartphone which I have ever used.
Are we gonna see some security updates? Mine is running on FEB security patch, which is pretty weird. Is even Razer supporting Razer Phone 2 at the moment? When they reorganize they said, that RP2 will get support, but doesn't seems that way to me.
Battery life is probably good at best, but given the refresh rate set to 120 Hz and relatevely high usage of mine, I think it's adequate. I normally gets through my work day and that's enough for me. But with RP2 I'm more and more getting my powerbank with me, just in case.
That's pretty awesome, but if Razer Phone could have a IP68 water resistance and Sony Hi-Res Audio it will be my dreaming phone. I'm using Xperia Xzs and hoping next time Razer could give me a real surprise since Sony has given up its traditional forms of its phones which I like and Razer Phone is the product which inherits the Sony's spirit in my opinion.
Chroma qi stand release date?
I'm really impressed razer did all reviewers and users wishes implementing water resistance, improved brightness, wireless charging and most important the led lighted logo.
Thanks razer

"Well I could do something about that I think...."

and all the hype has started. I was hoping to see this lapdoc coming with Razer phone 2. It was for me a deal breaker. I use Samsung phones since Galaxy S2 this was suppose to be my first non-samsung phone from a long time.
First leaks say that this will be the first Snapdragon 855 phone. Later we all had news that it will be 845 I said to myself ok it is not a big deal....
Then image leaks showing same design as on RP1 I thought that this is very bad since design is not modern enough but, I thought it is due to Project Linda so I said ok it is only design you still get a phone which you can turn into a mobile multimedia laptop.

Now there is no lapdock announced.

I think that you made this phone since you promised not that you really wanted to do it. You did not put to much effort to create something big and something we all wanted. "You wanted it? You got it now get lost..."

Think you can join Apple and Google in the walk of Shame this year.

I am quite surprised at the price for this mobile. I expected much higher.

This is sweet spot price tag...EU €850 lolo_O You can buy 2 pocophone plus €150 for buying games:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye_: Though I may get it for its chroma and chroma stand, nice for my tiny desk...anyone need LE 1337 edition;)
Any news on Canadian carriers yet?
I wish I had money for this beast 😜

Where the hell is Project Linda?!?!!

I think they might have killed that off.
😞
Must say I’m a little disappointed with this launch. I was expecting more than a light up wireless charging dock and a joystick to come with this phone. The ASUS is coming with a truckload of peripherals to compliment the “gaming” aspect of their phone and even created a dock for desktop expansion.

We got a glimpse of this from Razer with Project Linda, but then nothing was announced. Project Linda was gonna be the first in its class and now they’ve given one of the “bigs” enough time to create one of their own. Was really looking forward to upgrading to the Phone 2 from my S8+ to have the mobility of a “DeX like” solution, but I think I’ll wait and see if Samsung introduces a DeX Lapdock instead.
The Razer phone 2 has a fingerprint sensor?

The phone is a nice bit of kit, but I got SUPER happy when I saw this. Please get this wireless charger in stock right away. My desk needs it! #chromaeverything



I need this on my desk badly

Would look nice next to my mamba charging dock, and base station chroma headset stand

(wish I had a razer mug to round out my collection of cool square shaped chroma thinges)
The only thing I don like about the Razer Phone2 is Android 8.1 Where is Android 9?

Side power button. It's dual purpose. Also, long press for power off options.

Thanks!!!

Amazing specs for that price 😮
I see a lot of Razer employees here :D
Still I was here only for project Linda so if there is no Lapdock coming with Razer Phone 2 I will stay with my current phone and buy some tablet with keyboard dock.
Not the thing I wanted but still better than nothing.
I wish you big sales.... kappa

Personnaly, i expect quite a bit of time before they release project Linda, because it will take quite a bit of time to gather enough money ti buy them both.

But did you hear a thing about it? Did they say that it will be released later? It was a fake from the beginning or rather a concept which they did not eant to put in life. It was supposed to bait more people.
As MKBHD said a chance that it will be released this or next year is 3/10
I just give up on this and spent money on something else.

RGB is all I wanted for a razer phone, that was the purpose when I purchased for the razer phone 1, unfortunately, its not the one. And now, everything is on the razer phone 2. I really crave it, I wish that razer will open up an opportunity, agree to take back razer phone 1 and allow the user to offset a corresponding amount of money to own razer phone 2 :big_grin_:. Because I really want to buy the razer phone 2, but I just have the razer phone 1 few months ago, and I dont know what to do with it if I have 2 razer phone. :frown_:

I'm so glad someone else has brought this point up and I feel the same way
Can't wait it looks epic with the ability to have the chroma back
Look awesome

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.
