Razer Phone to Feature 5.7″ 120Hz Display & 4000mAh Battery

Update: Razer Phone is Now Officially Launched

A couple of days after we found the GFXbench listing, the Razer Phone is now spotted in a leaked image. On the rear of the device, we can spot the dual camera sensors along with a LED flash. The rear camera bumps out of the body which looks to be a metal surface. Just like the Nextbit Robin, the Razer Phone also looks to come in a rectangular slab design without any curved or rounded edges. While the Nextbit Robin came with a rounded volume rocker and power buttons, the Razer Phones also features similar buttons on the left edge.

There is a huge Razer logo in green color on the rear and we expect the company to make it backlit. Based on the GFXbench listing, the Razer Phone might feature dual 12MP sensors on the rear. However, there is no confirmation whether the company will be opting for the RGB + monochrome or the wide-angle + telephoto camera setup. Stay tuned on PhoneRadar for more details, as we expect more leaks to follow soon.

Razer Phone, Company’s First Smartphone to Sport 2K Display, SD835 SoC & 8GB RAM

(October 12th, 2017)

Earlier today, Razer has confirmed to unveil its first smartphone on November 1st. While there are several smartphone brands playing to their strengths, Razer with its gaming DNA might offer a true gaming smartphone that can easily handle the graphic intensive games. Though the upcoming Razer Phone will be the first smartphone with Razer branding, the company has earlier acquired the smartphone maker Nextbit which has already launched a successful smartphone called as Nextbit Robin.

Along with all the assets of Nextbit, Razer also brought its core management and employees. We will be knowing more information about the involvement of the Nextbit team in developing the Razer Phone on the launch day. Now, let’s talk about the specifications of the gaming-centric, Razer Phone. While there are no official details, the GFXbench listing revealed the key specifications of the Razer’s first ever smartphone. The name of the smartphone is mentioned as Razer Phone and will be running on Android 7.1.1 Nougat out of the box.

Instead of the stock UI, the Android OS on the Razer Phone will be coming with a customized UI. On the front, we will be looking at a 5.7-inch display with Quad HD (2560 x 1440 pixels) resolution and regular 16:9 aspect ratio. Under the hood, the Razer Phone comes powered by 10nm Snapdragon 835 octa-core processor clocked at 2.4GHz and Adreno 540 GPU. Talking about the GPU, it now fully supports DirectX 12 & Vulkan APIs. The device also packs 8GB of RAM which should be good enough for offering seamless gaming experience.

It also includes 64GB of internal storage and there is no information about the presence of MicroSD card slot. In terms of optics, the Razer Phone sports a 12MP sensor on the rear and an 8MP sensor on the front. It comes with a single SIM card slot and offers connectivity options like Bluetooth, GPS, and NFC. There is also a bunch of sensors including accelerometer, barometer, compass, gyroscope and light sensor. We will be knowing the official details along with the complete features of the device on the launch day i.e. November 1st.

Latest: Razer Phone Listed Online with 120Hz Display & Dual Cameras

The Razer Phone is now accidentally listed by an affiliate website of the Three UK. Razer has already teased to launch its first ever smartphone on November 1st. The newly revealed specifications coincide with the GFXbench listing of the Razer Phone. As we mentioned earlier, the design of the device looks similar to the Nextbit Robin. Just like Apple iPhone 8 and Google Pixel 2, the Razer Phone also features thick bezels on the top and bottom of the display.

The smartphone is mentioned to sport 5.72-inch IGZO display with 120Hz refresh rate and Wide Color Gamut (WCG) support. Earlier this month, Sharp announced the Aquos R Compact with the same 120Hz refresh rate. It will be offering Quad HD (2560 x 1440 pixels) resolution. With higher resolution and refresh rate, the Razer Phone should be the best choice for smartphone gamers.
