The company is calling it its \u201cfirst in the fold form factor\u201d and says the device is scheduled to arrive later this year. That wording strongly suggests a larger foldable that opens like a book, similar to the Galaxy Z Fold and Pixel Fold.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Motorola Razr Fold Evan Blass Leak\"  alt=\"Motorola Razr Fold Evan Blass Leak\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Motorola-Razr-Fold-Evan-Blass-Leak-scaled.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The slide also claims the Razr Fold will bring \u201cbrilliant displays, intelligent AI, and an advanced, boundary-breaking camera system\u201d that will set a new standard for what\u2019s possible in a foldable device. The slide adds that more details will be revealed in the coming months. Perhaps Motorola will time the launch of the Razr Fold closer to when Samsung announces the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-8-camera-specs-leak-3626630\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Galaxy Z Fold 8<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Motorola has focused on clamshell-style foldables with the Razr line for years. Last year in April, the company launched the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/moto-razr-ultra-2025-3547744\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Razr Ultra<\/a>, its most expensive foldable phone to date. However, a book-style Razr Fold would be a different ball game altogether, signaling that the company is getting serious about growing its foldable phone portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, this information is from a leaked presentation, so plans could still change. It\u2019s also unclear when exactly Motorola plans to preview this so-called Razr Fold, but with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/ces\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CES 2026<\/a> underway, we might hear about it sooner than later.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
