Motorola's wide foldable could be my next phone if the price is right
Key Points:
- Motorola is reportedly launching the Razr Flex, a wide foldable phone expected around mid-December, aiming to fit between standard slab phones and flip phones in size and usability.
- The Razr Flex folds to 110 x 76 x 12.6mm, making it shorter and thinner than typical flip phones but taller and thicker than some slabs, with a 4.97-inch cover screen designed for more practical use without unfolding.
- It features a 6.92-inch inner OLED display with a 165Hz refresh rate and a camera setup of a 50MP main and 50MP ultrawide, lacking the Pixel 10's 5x telephoto lens and having a lower IP rating than the Pixel 10.
- Pricing is expected around $1,499 or less to be competitive, as anything higher would make Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8, with its larger screen and thinner body, a more attractive option.
- The author values a usable cover screen and a price under $1,499, considering the Razr Flex as a potential Pixel 10 replacement if these conditions are met, but remains cautious until more details and hands-on impressions are available.
