The Razr Fold is stuck in the middle

For a phone that gets a lot right, the Motorola Razr Fold is frustratingly hard to recommend.

Since the first computer programmers wrote the first computer programs, we, the users of that software, have been forced to live in the worlds those programs create. The features are the features. The design is the design. Want something else, something better? Learn to code, I guess. Until […]
