Motorola foldable leaks tease larger outer screens and new chipsets

An avalanche of new information about Motorola’s Razr 50 series has recently surfaced, leaving little to the imagination. Thanks to a report on 91Mobiles via Evleaks, we have a better idea of ​​what the hardware could look like and what the pair of phones could feature. The models will be called the Razr 50 and Razr 50 Ultra, but in the United States the pair will likely be rebranded as the fourth-generation Razr and Razr Plus. The company has done this for previous releases.

The first thing you’ll notice in the photos shared is that the external screen on the standard model is much larger than on the 2023 Razr. It’s now reportedly a 3.6-inch pOLED display, which could rival last year’s Motorola Razr Plus resolution of 1,066 x 1,056 pixels with a 120Hz refresh rate. However, the main screen will probably remain the same as the 2023 smartphone: a 6.9-inch pOLED screen with a Full HD Plus image resolution (2,640 x 1,080 pixels) with a refresh rate of also 120 Hz.

Everything on the standard Razr will likely be the MediaTek Dimensity 7300X, a chipset that NotebookCheck points out that it has yet to be released and may appear on this phone. According to the report, it will be powered by the same 4,200mAh battery as the 2023 model. Since it’s an identical power source, we’re concerned that the new hardware will drain the battery faster. It’s hard to say for sure. Not much is known about the performance of the Dimensity 7300X. On the back you’ll find two cameras: a 50MP primary lens and a 13MP ultra-wide-angle option. The selfie lens on the front is a 32 MP camera.

Razr 50 Ultra Specifications

Motorola’s Razr 50 Ultra has many of the same features as its counterpart, with a few notable differences. Instead of the Dimensity 7300X, it will house the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, a chipset that is currently only available on a handful of Chinese smartphones. According to 91mobiles, the outer display is slightly larger, at four inches. Both screens also have a higher refresh rate, namely 165 Hz. Likewise, the two rear camera lenses are 50MP.

The Razr 50 Ultra’s battery is expected to be 4,000 mAh, a direct upgrade from the 2023 model’s 3,800 mAh power source. It probably won’t last as long as the base device, but at least the smartphone will outlast formerly. Additionally, the more expensive foldable device is said to have 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, while the base device has 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

It’s unknown when either of the foldable models will be released, but given that we have all this information, the launch could be right around the corner. NotebookCheck claims prices for the Razr 50 start at $699/€899 (approximately £550). It will be available in gray, beige and what appears to be dark or burnt orange. Price points for the Razr 50 Ultra were not mentioned, although initial reports expect it to cost “$200 more.” That’s around €1,099/$1,200/£940. The device has its own colours: sage green, peachy pink and blue-purple. However, none of the leaks give the shades a proper name.

Of course, take everything with a grain of salt. Things can always change at the last minute.
