I got an early look at the phone at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news-live\/mwc-2026-news-updates-product-announcements\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Mobile World Congress<\/a> in Barcelona, before it debuts in North America this summer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"u-speakableText-p2\">In January, the company shared a handful of Razr Fold specs, including that it&#8217;ll have a 6.6-inch external display and an 8.1-inch internal screen &#8212; making it slightly bigger than the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/mobile\/i-tested-the-galaxy-z-fold-7-its-slim-powerful-and-surprisingly-practical\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"c-shortcodeLink c-shortcodeLink-active\" target=\"_blank\">Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/mobile\/pixel-10-pro-fold-review-durability-and-battery-win-out-over-sleekness\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"c-shortcodeLink c-shortcodeLink-active\" target=\"_blank\">Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We now also know the Razr Fold will be 4.6mm thick when open and 9.9mm thick when closed, weighing 243 grams. That places it firmly between Samsung&#8217;s and Google&#8217;s foldable offerings.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In my hand, the Razr Fold felt similar to the Z Fold 7 in terms of its sleekness. The cover display is a comfortably and viable option for tasks like texting and scrolling. When you open the Razr, you can multitask with up to three apps. The incremental size-up compared with Samsung&#8217;s and Google&#8217;s foldables is hardly noticeable, but it should place it safely within their orbit.<\/p>\n<p>The Razr Fold will also pack a triple 50-megapixel camera system, along with a 32-megapixel selfie camera on the cover and a 20-megapixel selfie inside.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"Motorola Razr Fold\" height=\"675\" width=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>   <\/p>\n<p>The Razr Fold has a triple 50-megapixel camera system.<\/p>\n<p> Celso Bulgatti\/CNET<\/p>\n<p>Despite its sleeker frame, the Razr Fold will have an impressively large 6,000-mAh battery. It&#8217;ll also support 80-watt wired charging and 50-watt wireless charging. That should help it stand out, especially from the 4,400-mAh battery on the Galaxy Z Fold 7. It&#8217;s powered by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/mobile\/qualcomms-new-chip-means-you-dont-need-a-flagship-phone-for-cutting-edge-ai-tools\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"c-shortcodeLink c-shortcodeLink-active\" target=\"_blank\">Snapdragon 8 Gen 5<\/a> processor to boost performance and efficiency and to power <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/mobile\/motorola-lenovo-unveil-qira-ai-assistant\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"c-shortcodeLink c-shortcodeLink-active\" target=\"_blank\">AI features<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>See also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/mobile\/motorola-razr-fold-first-take\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Motorola Razr Fold Debuts to Take On Samsung&#8217;s and Google&#8217;s Book-Style Phones<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Motorola also shared more details about the Razr Fold&#8217;s durability. It&#8217;ll have an IP48 and IP49 rating, meaning it can withstand a meter of water for 30 minutes and handle high water pressure. But, unlike the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, it&#8217;s not dust-resistant. The Razr Fold will be the first smartphone to feature Corning&#8217;s Gorilla Glass Ceramic 3 on the cover. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Like most premium Android phones, the Razr Fold will come with seven years of software and security updates. There are two color options: Pantone blackened blue, which has a more textured back, and Pantone lily white, which is smoother and matte. Both backs are made of vegan leather and offer a more luxurious feel than the glass on most premium phones (not to mention the relative lack of fingerprints).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The two biggest questions still loom: price and availability. Motorola says it&#8217;ll share information on that as the summer release window approaches.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Motorola is slowly teasing more details about its upcoming Razr Fold, including its battery capacity, thickness and durability.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":509243,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[49,48,190,61],"class_list":{"0":"post-509242","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mobile","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-mobile","11":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/509242","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=509242"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/509242\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/509243"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=509242"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=509242"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=509242"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
