A few weeks ago the Razer Phone was announced, a device manufactured for the most gamers and that today is put on sale in Spain. The new phone can be purchased from the official Razer Spain website. Its price is 750 euros for the version with 8 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, with completely free shipping. As we say, it is a mobile designed by and for those who regulate games with heavy graphics. And it is that its technical section offers great performance and power. But, the big question is: is a gaming smartphone worth having premium mobiles?
Razer Phone, a mobile to play a lot
Inside the Razer Phone we find a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor along with an 8 GB RAM. This is one of the highest numbers today in telephony. The truth is that there are currently options such as the Samsung Galaxy Note 8, with 6 GB of RAM and Exynos 8895 eight-core SoC, which provide similar performance. In addition, this latest model is in Vodafone with cash payment for 887 euros, just a little more expensive than the Razer Phone. In any case, we can say that Razer has known how to play its cards well to seduce a sector of the population that "consumes" a lot of telephony. Its marketing campaign for gamers is very well worked, so it is possible that the Razer Phone will end up being successful in our country.
Main features
The Razer Phone also comes with other news that are worth noting. This model has a 5.7-inch panel manufactured by Sharp with QHD resolution and Gorilla Glass 3 protection system. What is striking about this screen is that it offers a refresh rate of 120 Hz, so the images will be much more fluid in view of the user. This is something that is very appreciated when playing different games with great graphics and that is usually difficult to find on a mobile. In this regard, the Razer Phone scores points over other rivals of its status. Likewise, the device also equips a 4,000 mAh battery with Quick Charge 4.0 charging system.In this way, we will be able to charge the terminal to more than half in just a few minutes. Thus, we will never be left in the middle of a game.
Razer has focused on gamers, although it has not neglected other things when making the Razer Phone. In the photographic section it does not disappoint either. Like other competitors, the device comes with a dual 12-megapixel main camera with 2x zoom and LED flash. The front camera has a resolution of 8 megapixels with f / 2.0 aperture for selfies and video calls. The mobile is governed by Android 7.1.1 Nougat along with the company's Nova Launcher Prime Razer Edition customization layer. It is expected to update to Android 8 in the first quarter of next year.
As far as design is concerned, the Razer Phone is built from aluminum. We can say that it is a discreet, elegant mobile, with straight lines that are reminiscent of the Xperia designs. On the back is the company logo presiding over the central part. The team also takes care of the sound, another of the sections that gamers tend to focus on the most. It is true that there are other mobiles for that price on the market that meet the appropriate level of performance and power to deal with heavy games and apps. However, the Razer Phone encompasses a bit of all those things that current gamers demand most.
