Admit it: You'd be french mom sex videosa little grossed out if a new smartphone you ordered showed up with someone else's fingerprints smudged all over it. For some Motorola Razr customers, that's been the reality. But Motorola says it's making changes.
As The Verge noted Thursday, a note on Amazon's product listing for the new 5G foldable Razr said phones were being temporarily removed from their boxes, put into a folded position, and re-inserted into the boxes prior to shipment. The idea was supposedly to protect the display (which was open and exposed by default), but phones were showing up with visible signs of tampering that made the new devices look slightly used.
In a statement, Motorola said this was being done at its factories and not by Amazon workers. In addition to that, "strict requirements on handling" meant the process should theoretically be sanitary. However, phones were still showing up with fingerprints on them.
