A new motorola razr foldable is on the way, as confirmed by the CEO of Lenovo to CNBC at MWC 2023. During the event held in Barcelona, yuanqing yang He told the aforementioned medium that the reception of the most recent version of his mobile has been “very good” and that his successor will arrive “very soon”.
While no specific dates for its release were mentioned, it was hinted that the device will hit the market this year. As for technical characteristics, there were no great novelties either, although the mobile would stand out for having an improved hinge which would reduce the visibility of the screen crease when the phone is opened.
“I think it’s much better,” Yang said, drawing a comparison to previous foldable Motorola Razrs. It remains to be seen if the smartphone is up to the task and if it becomes an attractive alternative within the sector.
If the manufacturer improves the folding system, it is possible that the device provides a more forceful feeling of robustness. If achieved, it could mean an interesting leap in quality compared to the 2022 model, that gave a feeling of fragility when closing it.
Anyway, we will have to wait to find out more details about the new foldable Motorola Razr. Speaking to The Verge, a spokeswoman for the brand avoided releasing more information about the new launch; although she assured that they are “committed to the foldable segment and dedicated to expanding the Razr franchise offerings soon.”
What to expect from the next foldable Motorola Razr?
Beyond Lenovo’s confirmation of the soon launch of a new foldable Motorola Razr, some rumors of the device have already circulated recently. days ago, the leaker Evan Blass shared some renders of the supposed new version of the device, with some interesting details.
The most important changes would be in its design, which would be similar to that of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 or the Oppo Find N2 Flip. But I would also highlight the implementation of a much bigger outdoor screen than the one used by the model that arrived in Europe in 2022.
In one of the leaked images it can even be seen that the panel could occupy practically the entire top half of its outer shell. If so, it would take a feature imposed by the aforementioned Oppo model, which already uses a large external screen, to another level. Although it would not be the only foldable to continue this trend, since something similar is rumored with the Galazy Z Flip 5.
Whatever the case, We must wait to learn more about the next foldable Motorola Razr. Let’s not forget that the 2022 model came to the market with an interesting technical sheet, although nothing revolutionary. It included a 6.7-inch main screen, a 2.7-inch secondary panel, Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, 8 GB of RAM, 256 GB of storage, a double camera with 13 and 50 megapixel sensors, a 32-megapixel front camera and a 3,500 mAh battery.
