Motorola Razr 2019 with Foldable Display Launched for $1,499
Nov. 14, 2019Motorola on Wednesday launched its much-anticipated folding smartphone following weeks of leaks, speculations and teasers. Simply called the ‘Motorola Razr‘ in a throwback to the best-selling device from the last decade, the all-new folding smartphone from the Lenovo-owned brand comes with some cool features and boatloads of nostalgia, starting with the clamshell form factor of days gone by.
The primary display is a so-called ‘Flex View’ 6.6-inch pOLED panel with a 21:9 aspect ratio and 2142×876 pixel resolution. The secondary display is a ‘Quick View’ 2.7-inch gOLED 600×800 screen that’s placed just above the main camera. Talking about imaging options on the all-new device, there’s a 16MP sensor that acts as the primary camera when the device is unfolded and can be used as the selfie-cam when the phone is folded. The Razr, however, also sports a 5MP camera inside to take selfies when the phone is unfolded.
The Motorola Razr is powered by the Snapdragon 710 SoC, which means it will not offer flagship-grade performance. There’s also a 2510mAh battery with 15W charging. Motorola says it made these compromises to reduce processor heat, and to keep the device’s recognizable form-factor. The phone will come with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage, and will run Android 9 Pie out-of-the-box.
