Motorola claims that several of the specs are "industry-leading", including 6200 nits peak brightness for the large inner display. It's also the first smartphone with Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 3 protecting the outer display. Motorola says its tests show "75% better drop performance". The Razr Fold is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chip and a 6,000 mAh battery. It supports fast charging at up to 80 watts. The phone will also sport an IP49 rating for dust and water resistance. The phone is still slated for US release "this summer", and pricing has yet to be announced.
Motorola Previews razr fold
Motorola has taken the wraps (mostly) off its newest and most ambitious foldable phone to date: the "razr fold". The device has a 6.6-inch outer display, but unfolds to reveal an 8.1-inch flexible inner display. Those measurements are just slightly larger than the displays on Samsung's competing Galaxy Z Fold7. The phone isn't coming to market until this "summer", so Motorola isn't releasing full specifications, just a handful of details. Like that it will have three rear cameras and all will be 50 megapixel, including a Sony Lytia sensor on the main camera and a 3x periscope telephoto camera. The external selfie camera will be 32 megapixel and the inner camera, 20 megapixel. It will support Dolby Vision video capture. It will also support a new moto pen ultra stylus, which has both pressure sensitivity and tilt detection. Color options will be: Pantone Blackened Blue and Pantone Lily White. Further details will announced closer to launch.
Motorola Teases Book-Style Foldable
Motorola has posted a teaser on its official US Instagram account showing a new phone that folds like a book, similar to Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold series, with the tagline "The future unfolded". The post is promoting a major press conference that Motorola and Lenovo will hold tomorrow at the CES trade show. The implication, of course, is that Motorola will announce this new foldable phone tomorrow. Few details can be gleaned from the short video clip, although it does show a large square camera bump with four "lenses", a centered camera hole on the outer display, and a camera hole in the corner of the large inner display. The press conference starts at 5pm PT at The Sphere in Las Vegas and will be streamed online. Until now, Motorola has only sold clamshell-style foldable phones under its "razr" brand. Its current lineup of includes the 2025 razr, razr+, and razr ultra.
