A Motorola Razr’s Screen Reportedly Peels Off, Creating A Bubble

The latest incident with the Motorola Razr involving this foldable phone is when a reviewer saw the plastic laminate peeled off the flexible screen

Motorola Razr is far from being a durable phone, and it is not even affordable. The latest incident involving this foldable phone is when a reviewer saw the plastic laminate peeled off the flexible screen.

Raymond Wong of Input was the one who made public this piece of news. The tear happens on a test Razr that Input has had for a few days. According to Wong, he started to notice a bubble created right on the position of the hinge as the laminate top layer and the screen are separated.

Here is a picture of the bubble:

The bubble seems to affect the functionality of the screen. According to Wong, while the other parts of the screen still function properly, the one right on the bubble is not as responsive as usual anymore.

So far, we have not had any viable explanation of why the bubble appears in the first place. Wong said that he had never dropped the phone or placed it near any kind of liquid. He projected that it might be the change in temperature, but we do not know for sure.

Motorola is aware of the incident and it has issued an official statement explaining the incident:

According to Motorola, it has asked Input to send it the broken phone so that it can find out what has caused the bubble on the screen.

Wong also shared that he was not the first to run into problems with the screen of the Razr. Another incident was spotted by Brenda Stoyar of Mashable. This time, it was the hinge that showed issues. And the temperature is thought to be the culprit too.
