I've got one of the Samsung flips and had thought it'd bother me as well, but it's not very noticeable unless you're dragging your finger across the screen, and I've eventually stopped noticing it at all, and notice screen smudges much more readily. Earlier flips were worse with that though. Unfortunately I haven't played with the Razr so don't know it compares. Definitely play around with one in person at Costco/Best Buy/Target/Walmart/wherever before committing though.
