Would you buy the RP2 again? Why or why not.
I picked up a RP2 during the Black Friday sales and am awaiting delivery. I’ve been doing research because it’s been a while since I’ve used Android. I’ve seen a lot of praise for the RP2, but I’m also seeing a lot of reports of issues ranging from small to extreme (failing USBc ports). I’ve honestly considered returning to sender and looking elsewhere, but I think the RP2 is the best-specced phone for $300. Would you buy again? Why or why not?

I love the phone but am experiencing intermittent charging problems. I don't think it is the port or cable because so far a reboot seems to fix it temporarily. This just started, so I am guessing there's a software incompatibility. For the moment, I'm not too worried, though I will be in contact with Razer support for any help they can provide.

My charge port is near completely dead,this is a very seriously problem,I can't charge,l will never buy razer's products, how can they let this problem happen, charging is the life of the phone.
This is one of the most troubling issues I’ve seen reported by multiple users and it seems like the one year mark is the trigger point. I’d like to make this phone last at least two years or more. It’s funny that such a critical failure is being reported in a phone with a reputation for being solidly built.

I also have my Razer Phone 2 for more than half a year now, and I am really enjoying it.
There are only two things that I don't like: Gorilla Glass is not what it used to be (there are lot's of scratches on the screen, even though I was very careful) and there is obvious lack in software department (only one system update, chroma app could have more features like adjustable color for each app...).
Again, that’s another common complaint I’ve seen. It’s troubling that Razer laid off a lot of their mobile division staff and are having fire sales on remaining units. Hopefully, this phone will get updated to Android 10 if for no other reason than modular security patches going forward.

Thanks for your reply. The has a huge upside (why I bought it). Have you had any hardware issues so far? I take care of my stuff so I want to get at least 2 years out of it.
我在黑色星期五銷售期間撿起了RP2，正在等待交貨。我一直在做研究，因為自從我使用Android已有一段時間了。我對RP2贊不絕口，但是我也看到很多關於小型到極端（USBc端口出現故障）問題的報告。老實說，我曾考慮過回到發件人，再去其他地方，但是我認為RP2是價格最高的手機，價格為300美元。您會再次購買嗎？為什麼或為什麼不？
