The company is preparing one of its most ambitious foldable lineups yet, spanning multiple Razr flip models and even its first proper book-style foldable. And now, after weeks of teasers and leaks, Motorola has finally confirmed when we\u2019ll see it all come together.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_dm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_Wg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766572210_733_google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Wg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766572211_278_google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In a teaser clip posted across its social media platforms, Motorola has confirmed that its next-generation Razr devices will be unveiled on April 29. The short video posted by the company shows a flip phone unfolding in black, green, and purple colorways, hinting at at least some of the finishes we can expect at launch.<\/p>\n<p>While Motorola hasn\u2019t explicitly named the devices in the teaser, it\u2019s clear we\u2019re getting a full refresh of the Razr lineup. Based on recent leaks, that includes the standard Razr 2026, the Razr Plus 2026, the top-end Razr Ultra 2026, and the book-style foldable Razr Fold, which is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/motorola-razr-fold-release-date-confirmed-3657925\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">already on pre-order in some countries<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We already know most of what we need about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/motorola-razr-fold-hands-on-worried-3629604\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Razr Fold<\/a> thanks to Motorola\u2019s extensive information campaign, but leaks about the new flip Razrs have also left little to the imagination.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Dealabs <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/motorola-razr-2026-specs-price-availability-3659123\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">detailed the specs and pricing<\/a> for the new Razr family just a few hours ago, and if that leak is to be believed, Motorola\u2019s foldables are getting a noticeable price bump this year:<\/p>\n<p>Razr 2026: $799.99<br \/>\nRazr Plus 2026: $1,099.99<br \/>\nRazr Ultra 2026: $1,499.99<br \/>\nRazr Fold 2026: $1,899.99<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a $100 increase for the base and Plus models, and a steeper $200 jump for the Ultra. The Razr Fold is obviously the most expensive, given its form factor.<\/p>\n<p>The same leak also points to a May 21, 2026, release date for the phones in the US. That means you\u2019ll have to wait quite a while to actually get these phones once they\u2019re announced next week.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
