The Motorola Razr Fold is shaping up to be pure flagship


Motorola has revealed a little more about its upcoming folding phone, and all signs point toward a premium option — not the budget-friendlier alternative the category could use.

For starters, the Razr Fold will cost €1,999 (about $2,350) bundled with the Moto Pen Ultra. It’ll go on sale first in Europe, with North America to follow “in the coming months.” Motorola hasn’t confirmed how much it will cost without the stylus, or what the price is in US dollars.

The Razr Fold will come with a huge 6,000mAh silicon-carbon battery, making it the first foldable sold in North America to use the technology. It’s not quite the biggest battery on any foldable, but only because Honor went and announced the Magic V6 with a 6,600mAh battery just yesterday.

Ready for a firehose of specs? The Fold will come with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, IP48 and IP49 ratings for dust and water protection, a 50-megapixel 1/1.28-inch type Sony LYTIA main camera sensor, 80W wired charging, and 50W wireless charging.

Motorola is really emphasizing camera performance — the 50-megapixel 3x optical zoom includes optical image stabilization, and the 50-megapixel ultrawide covers a 122-degree field of view and doubles as a macro camera. The Razr Fold comes with “up to” seven years of OS upgrades and security updates, which has also become something of a standard on flagship phones in the past few years.

Overall, the Razr Fold seems to be taking a few cues from foldables outside of the US market, which could push Samsung and Google to innovate their foldables a little more; a welcome development indeed.
