Motorola resurrected its popular Razr flip phone and gave it a modern foldable revamp earlier this year. The Moto Razr foldable arrived earlier last year (also to India, back in March) with a familiar clamshell design, single rear camera, and a measly battery. The company put an end to the flood of leaks and as promised, officially unveiled the Moto Razr 5G today.
This second-gen foldable phone from Motorola not only brings some much-requested design upgrades but also offers souped-up internals compared to its predecessor. The biggest change will have to be the improved hinge, which is now said to be quieter as compared to the creaky hinge aboard its predecessor. The hinge design has not been changed. It’s only a minor upgrade that fixes the noisy hinge aboard the original Moto Razr.
The foldable still includes only a single camera on the outside and a single camera for selfies on the inside. The former has been upgraded to a 48MP (f/1.7) camera while a 20MP selfie camera replaces the 5MP sensor aboard its predecessor. Motorola has also updated the camera app UI to make the various features more easily accessible.
Moto Razr 5G has been priced at $1,399 (~Rs. 1,02,699) in the US, which is $100 less than the first-gen foldable from the company. It goes up directly against the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip, which is priced at $1,380 and boasts the same clamshell design.
