Other Folding Phones to ConsiderRazr 2025 series Photograph: Julian ChokkattuMotorola Razr+ (2025): There is technically a third phone in Motorola’s latest Razr lineup: the Razr+ 2025. However, it’s nearly identical to last year’s Razr+ 2024, with fresh colors and the improved IP48 rating and titanium-reinforced hinge. It sits in an awkward middle ground, though. It’s not as affordable as the standard Razr, which offers a pretty nice experience for the money. But it’s also not as flagship as the Razr Ultra. It is also the only one of the lineup without the ultrawide camera. I usually love telephoto zoom lenses,…

And in spite of its name, the TurboBlade is actually bladeless. In other words, air gets sucked in through a cleanable screen dust trap on the fan’s base and…

And what about the squirrel problem?Lucky for you we’ve been testing the most popular smart bird feeder models, including Netvue’s original Birdfy feeder ($135) and Bird…
