1. I really like Pixel UI and would probably still be on a Pixel if I could stack widgets. Moto's UI is Pixel UI, basically, WITH stackable widgets and other subtle UI nice-ities (e.g., long press lock screen notification icons to see messages).
2. Relatedly, one app store, one photos app, one phone app, etc. and not needing to deal with the Samsung app invasion of my workflow that happens occasionally.
3. Battery life reports of the RF are impressive. ZF7 battery life isn't great and I don't want to incorporate periodic charging into my work day.
4. Larger screen when folded. The ZF7's front screen works fine but the additional real estate on the RF, even if minimal, will be nice to have.
5. I could stand the weight difference between Pixel 10 Pro Fold and ZF7. I suspect I won't at all mind the difference between the RF and the ZF7.
6. Samsung's update cadence is great and from what I hear, Motorola's won't be as good but might might be good enough.
7. I really like the texture on the back of Moto's recent phones. Assuming the RF will have a similar feel (black/blue color), I can slap a magnet ring on the back for charging and mounting and be on my way.
8. The price was right: used the 10% discount code and bought a $500 iphone air to trade in so that all-in, I'll pay $1,100 if I end up keeping the RF.
9. Cameras aren't part of the analysis for me. I don't care about them. Likewise, "the crease"...

I pre-ordered on the 17th but haven't gotten my shipping info yet. I suspect I'll have it in hand early next week. We'll see how it goes.

Really fired up for my incoming razr fold. Rocking a Z fold 7 now (really enjoy it) and the only thing that gives me pause about the Razr is the security and OS update cadence. Anyone have visibility on that? What should we expect-- every month, every other month?

Haven't had a Moto in a long time.

Thanks in advance.
