The new device will feature a 6.6-inch external display and an 8.1-inch internal foldable OLED panel with 2K resolution, according to Motorola. The company is currently not releasing details on pricing or specific features. The Razr Fold aims to compete with existing foldables like Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold and Google's Pixel Fold.

Motorola's initial foray into foldables involved reimagining its classic Razr phone as a vertically folding smartphone. With several iterations of this design, the company is now expanding its foldable offerings to include a larger, book-style format. This expansion reflects the growing interest and development in the foldable smartphone market, where manufacturers are exploring different form factors and functionalities.

The development and release of the Razr Fold demonstrates the ongoing innovation in smartphone technology, particularly in the realm of flexible displays and hinge mechanisms. The success of the Razr Fold will depend on its pricing, features, and overall user experience compared to its competitors. Motorola plans to release more information about the Razr Fold closer to its launch this summer.
