Introducing the motorola razr fold: The gold standard in foldable photography
Motorola has long been known for rethinking the traditional smartphone experience, from pioneering the iconic razr flip phone to redefining the foldable category. Now with the introduction of its first-ever book-style foldable smartphone, the motorola razr fold, Motorola is effortlessly bridging work and play in one elegant, meticulously designed package.
With an adaptive, book-style design, the motorola razr fold delivers a powerful productivity experience without compromising on mobility. It features a strikingly slim 6.6″ external display that transforms into a spacious 8.1″ 2K LTPO canvas when unfolded. It’s built for productivity, creativity and next-level entertainment. Showcasing the brightest interior display of any foldable, it offers a truly immersive experience for whatever you create or consume. Plus, it’s the only foldable with Sound by Bose technology, delivering a premium audio experience to match its impressive visuals.
The motorola razr fold also sets a new standard for mobile photography as the #1 foldable camera system on DXOMARK, the global gold standard for imaging excellence[1]. At its core is a 50MP Sony LYTIA™ 828 main sensor with Pantone® Validated colour[13], delivering stunning clarity and true-to-life images alongside cinematic Dolby Vision® video recording in up to 8K. A 50MP periscope telephoto lens offers up to 100x Super Zoom Pro, while a 50MP ultrawide lens[9] with Macro Vision captures expansive scenes and extreme close-ups with equal precision. Equipped with a 32MP internal selfie camera and a 20MP external selfie camera, the motorola razr fold stands apart, offering two high-quality selfie experiences across its displays.
Further elevating the offering is a 6000mAh battery, one of the largest available in a foldable, paired with blazing-fast 80W TurboPower™ charging that delivers over 43 hours of power[2,7,8]. Purposefully designed, the motorola razr fold is backed by a precision-engineered stainless steel hinge and Corning® Gorilla® Glass Ceramic 3[5], making it as resilient as it is capable, built to keep pace with modern life without missing a beat.
Powered by the Snapdragon® 8 Gen 5 Mobile Platform, it delivers ultra-smooth performance that supercharges AI, boosting performance, camera quality, and efficiency all at once. It reimagines what productivity looks like , giving users the freedom to choose from multiple smart assistants such as Google Gemini[9], moto ai[3] and Perplexity AI, allowing full access to the world’s leading AI platforms in one device. And to maximise multitasking on-the-go, the motorola razr fold is made compatible with the ultra-fine tip moto pen ultra[4], so users can take notes, sketch and annotate directly on the expansive display, bringing inspirations to life on a bigger screen. With up to seven AndroidTM OS upgrades and up to seven years of security updates[20], motorola razr fold users will get to enjoy all this powerhouse performance for years to come.
The most powerful razr ever: The motorola razr 70 ultra
The motorola razr 70 ultra is the most powerful razr ever[18] made, powered by the Snapdragon® 8 Elite Mobile Platform to deliver flagship performance, faster speeds, and advanced on-device AI experiences. Driven by the custom-built 3rd gen Qualcomm® Oryon CPU and advanced Qualcomm® Adreno GPU, this device maximises performance and efficiency across every task, making it the choice for those who refuse to compromise on capability.
At the heart of the motorola razr 70 ultra is a triple 50MP camera system, and the first flip phone to feature a LOFIC sensor, capturing up to 6x more dynamic range[12] for more natural, true-to-life images in any lighting condition. Whether shooting expansive landscapes with the 50MP ultrawide lens[6], close-up detail with Macro Vision, or selfies on the 50MP internal camera, the motorola razr 70 ultra delivers a consistently polished result from every angle. Its Flex View position transforms the device into an on-the-go tripod for hands-free shooting, while new AI-powered camera features including Camcorder Rotate to Zoom, Group Shot[14] and Signature Style, give users even greater creative control with every shot.
Despite its slim and compact form, the motorola razr 70 ultra is built for all-day endurance. Its silicon-carbon 5000mAh battery[7,19] paired with 68W TurboPower™ charging delivers over 36 hours of battery life, with a full day of power achievable in just eight minutes[10,11,15]. The 4.0″ external display adds another layer of practicality, offering full app access, live notifications and seamless interactions, all without needing to flip open the device.
Crafted with elegance and durability in mind, the motorola razr 70 ultra features a refined titanium-reinforced hinge[17] and Corning® Gorilla® Glass Ceramic on the external display, delivering 10x better drop performance[16] and finished in a vivid PANTONE Orient Blue colour with a finely-embossed Alcantara® texture, for a touch of fun.
