The Razr Fold has a lot going for it, but like all foldables, it’s wildly expensive.
Motorola was early to foldable phones, announcing its first Razr-branded foldable in 2019. Since then, the company has churned out a series of foldable flip phones, but the new Razr Fold is its first attempt at a tablet-style foldable. Samsung, Google, and others have been making devices like this for a while, so we know the formula, and the Razr Fold doesn’t change the game.
Like the competition, the Razr Fold has flagship specs and a giant foldable display that fits in your pocket. It also comes with a hefty $1,900 price tag. While Motorola has made progress overcoming some traditional shortcomings of foldables, the phone still feels rather impractical, while still being very cool.
Is “cool” enough reason to spend almost two grand on a phone, though?
The Razr Fold lives up to its flip-phone namesake—the device is pretty slim for a foldable, measuring 10.1 mm when closed and 4.7 mm when open. It’s not as svelte as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, but it beats the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold. The weight also falls right in the middle at 243 g. Motorola has a lot of experience with hinges, and the Razr Fold reflects that. The movement feels smooth, and the hinge can be held at almost any angle without wobbling. When open, the phone is very nearly flat. It’s a few degrees shy of perfect, but it’s closer than Samsung’s Fold 7.
