The best Motorola Razr (2019) cases and covers

The Motorola Razr is a modern reimagining of one of the most fondly-remembered phones of all time — the Motorola Razr V3. Capitalizing on the recent trend for foldable phones, 2019’s Motorola Razr crams a 6.2-inch display into a form factor that can be folded up and easily slipped into a pocket. It’s the ultimate in pocketable phones, and it looks great to boot. But it’s certainly not cheap, and you’ll want to keep your folding phone safe from the hazards of daily life. Here are some of the best Motorola Razr (2019) cases and covers to keep it safe.

Olixar Clear Case

The Motorola Razr is unlike most phones in that even a large case isn’t likely to obscure what it is — but still, we love the simplicity of a clear case, and for an inexpensive day-to-day case, you can’t go wrong with Olixar’s simple, clear case. As with all cases for the Razr, it’s a two-piece case and is made from TPU. This soft material is easy to grip, and while it’s not the most protective case around, it will still protect against scratches and small dings. It’s thin, which means it doesn’t add much bulk to your device, and while it’s not the case for anyone going on adventures (or anyone who is just clumsy), it’s still a great budget option.

Spigen Thin Fit Case

Spigen is one of the biggest names in smartphone protection, and the Thin Fit case is another great option if you want slim protection. Unlike the Olixar case before it, though, Spigen’s Thin Fit case is made from hard but lightweight polycarbonate. That means it clips on easily and should offer serious protection against scratches and other more direct threats to your phone while staying thin and light. The rear panel also has a texture to aid grip. On the minus side, it’s less protective against drops than cases using TPU, and it also doesn’t cover the buttons or the entire sides of the phone, leaving them open to scratches. It’s also on the more expensive side. Still, it’s stylish, and it has slim protection you can’t argue with.

The Razr is a great-looking phone, so you might be looking for a case that complements that. Kate Spade New York’s Disco Dot case is a stylish, clear case that offers more than your usual amount of protection. The print itself is high-quality and has a glossy finish, and it adds to your Razr’s style and design. It’s slim and lightweight and also has a bumper to help resist drops and bumps. The hard shell also offers a solid backbone against other types of damage.

Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case

The Ultra Hybrid case is another entry for Spigen, and that’s because it’s an excellent dual-layer case that boasts great protection and a stylish look. It’s made from a combination of a hard polycarbonate shell and a softer TPU bumper, and this mixture of materials provides excellent protection across the board. It’s also completely clear, so your phone’s style can shine through at all times. On the downside, it’s not as slim as a purely-TPU case would be, but the increased protection makes up for it, even if it is a tad on the expensive side.

Otterbox Symmetry Flex Case

If you’re looking for serious protection, then you look to Otterbox. Otterbox’s adoption of the Razr wasn’t guaranteed, but  we’re glad it did. The Symmetry Series Flex is the ultimate in rugged cases for the Motorola Razr, and it offers a two-piece design made from a hard outer shell of polycarbonate and a softer TPU inner core. This combination wards off direct threats with its hard outer strength, while the inner core absorbs shocks and drops, keeping your phone safe. It’s not perfect — it leaves the spine vulnerable, and it’s extremely expensive — but it’s still the best option if you need rugged protection.

The best Apple iPhone 16 Plus cases for 2024

The iPhone 16 series is available now, including the big and powerful iPhone 16 Plus. While you're choosing exactly what color you want for your shiny new phone, you should also look into a case to protect it from those times when you have butterfingers.

Although the iPhone 16 Plus is plenty durable on its own, a case can help you show off its design while protecting it against scratches. Even if you are really careful and you don't drop your phone, a touchscreen in the same pocket as your car keys is a recipe for disaster. Even a short drop can shatter a screen if it hits at the right angle. A good case will protect not only the screen but the cameras, sides, and ports of the phone, too.

The best folding phones in 2024: the 6 best you can buy
Someone opening the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5.

Folding smartphones are a fairly mature market in 2024. When they first launched, foldables were futuristic and exciting, albeit buggy. With time, they have been refined and improved to cater to everyday use. Their prices are gradually decreasing as the technology advances, but they still remain expensive purchases, making it crucial to make the right buying decision.

Currently, there are two types of folding smartphones available on the market. The first type resembles a regular non-folding phone, but can be unfolded into a larger tablet-like device. The second type is similar to the classic Motorola Razr clamshell phones, where a normal-sized phone can be folded in half to become more compact and pocketable. Although both use the same screen and hinge technology, they cater to different needs.

Remember Moto AI? Motorola finally has an update on it

When Motorola launched the Razr Plus 2024 this year, it also mentioned some of its own AI-powered tools, appropriately named Moto AI. However, we’ve only seen Moto AI through a couple of image-generation tools like Magic Canvas and Style Sync. Now, Motorola has just announced at Lenovo Tech World 2024 that more Moto AI tools are coming, at least in beta form.

Motorola discussed some Moto AI features earlier this year, including Catch Me Up and Remember This. The Catch Me Up feature lets you get a prioritized summary of your notifications so you don’t have to scroll through a bunch of missed notifications. There is also Pay Attention, which helps users recall instructions or details without having to write notes or listen to long recordings. Remember This captures live moments or onscreen information when activated and saves it while providing AI-powered insights.
