Motorola Razr Fold: The Icon Reinvents Itself for the Age of Productivity

 Motorola didn’t just bring another foldable to CES 2026 — it rewrote its own playbook.

After years of defining the modern flip phone, the Lenovo-owned brand has finally crossed into book-style foldables with the Razr Fold, a device that signals a clear shift from nostalgia-driven design to full-scale productivity. Unveiled on the CES show floor, the Razr Fold positions Motorola squarely against heavyweights like Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Google’s Pixel 10 Pro Fold — and it’s doing so with confidence.

From pocket-friendly to productivity-first

Closed, the Razr Fold behaves like a familiar premium smartphone. Open it, and the device transforms into a compact tablet built for multitasking, note-taking, and content consumption. Motorola says this dual-personality approach is central to the Razr Fold’s identity — portability without compromise.

At the heart of the experience is an 8.1-inch LTPO inner display with sharp 2K resolution, designed for extended reading, split-screen workflows, and stylus input. On the outside, a 6.6-inch cover display ensures users can handle calls, messages, and apps without unfolding the device every time.

Cameras that don’t feel like a compromise

Foldables often trade camera ambition for flexibility — but Motorola is pushing back. The Razr Fold features a triple 50MP rear camera system, covering wide, ultra-wide, and 3x optical zoom photography. Selfies and video calls are handled by a 32MP cover camera and a 20MP inner camera, giving users high-quality imaging regardless of how the phone is folded.

AI, but practical

Motorola’s on-device AI plays a quieter, more useful role here. Features like Catch Me Up summarise missed calls and messages, while Next Move offers contextual suggestions based on what’s happening on screen — whether that’s drafting an email, planning travel, or reviewing documents. Importantly, much of this processing happens directly on the device, keeping data private and responses fast.

Designed to be used, not just admired

Support for the Moto Pen Ultra stylus reinforces the Razr Fold’s productivity focus, while Pantone-certified finishes — Blackened Blue and Lily White — add a refined, premium touch.

Motorola is keeping some cards close to its chest. Battery capacity, chipset details, pricing, and launch timelines remain under wraps, with full specifications promised later in the year.

Still, the message from CES 2026 is clear: the Razr brand has grown up. With the Razr Fold, Motorola isn’t chasing trends — it’s redefining what the Razr name stands for in the era of big screens and smarter devices.
