Motorola Razr 5G: full unboxing

There's a new Motorola Razr and it comes with a slew of improvements and additions. But one thing that remains unchanged, however, is the vertical box it comes in. Unlike the coffin-like boxes most phones are packaged in, the Razr comes standing upright with a transparent lid that lets you see the phone before you open it. The lid lifts to reveal the foldable phone nestled in the box's angled base.

Motorola designed the box so that its bottom can be used as a stand for the Razr. The sides of its base are also dotted with tiny holes to amplify the audio from the phone's speaker grille, which is really handy when you're listening to music, podcasts or audiobooks. That said, the base is just a box -- it doesn't have power to recharge the phone or electrically amplify music to the level of a standalone Bluetooth speaker. Nonetheless, next to the delight of opening and closing the actual phone, the box still has its uses and it'll surely surprise buyers the first time they open it.
