Is this what Motorola's foldable RAZR will look like?
The Motorola RAZR V3
A modern take on the Motorola RAZR V3
Taking a look at the device’s external area, the upper portion retains the original’s iconic secondary display and single-camera layout. When unfolded, this particular sensor can be used as the rear camera. However, users interested in taking selfies will presumably be able to use the sensor in combination with the secondary display by folding the device shut.
There’s also a chance the final device could sport multiple cameras rather than just one in light of their recent popularity.
This lower portion may also be home to the battery. But considering the limited amount of room, it’ll remain to be seen how Motorola handles the smartphone’s battery life.
The Motorola RAZR could face some tough competition
According to the recent report, Motorola’s next-gen RAZR will be available in very limited quantities via Verizon in the US. In fact, sources claim that just 200,000 units of the device will be produced. However, these will all be priced in the region of $1,500.
Similarly, if Motorola chooses to release the device in the first half of the year it should arrive with Android 9 Pie pre-installed. Alternatively, if a Q3 or Q4 announcement is on the cards Android 10 Q should be on board.
The Motorola RAZR looks set to become one of the first foldable smartphones to make it to market. It’s worth noting, however, that it’ll face some pretty tough competition from the Samsung Galaxy Fold.
This device will use a different foldable setup that gives users access to a 4.8-inch display when used as a typical smartphone and a much larger 7.3-inch panel if unfolded. It will arrive powered by the Snapdragon 855 and looks set to feature as much as 1TB of internal storage and 12GB of RAM.
Alongside this device, further competition could come from the likes of LG and Huawei. Both of these brands are reportedly developing their own foldable alternatives which are slated to arrive during the second half of 2019.
