Motorola rolls out Razr Fold in North America as 2026 Razr lineup lands

Motorola has launched its Razr Fold in the US and Canada, with the US getting unlocked units and a staggered rollout of the 2026 Razr family. In Canada, only the Razr Fold is launching at CAD 2,700. US buyers can snag bundles with Moto Buds 2 Plus and four Moto Tags (prices: Fold $1,900; Ultra 2026 $1,500; Razr+ 2026 $1,100; vanilla Razr 2026 $800). Promo trade-ins vary by model (up to $500 for Fold, $400 for Ultra, $300 for Razr+, $200 for vanilla Razr). Availability spans Best Buy, Amazon, and carrier releases in the coming months, with some variants like the Razr+ arriving on AT&T and a T-Mobile version coming soon.

Moto Razr Fold Proves It's a True Foldable Contender

Motorola's Razr Fold marks the company's first book-style foldable and goes head-to-head with Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Google's Pixel 10 Pro Fold. It sports a 6.6-inch exterior and 8.1-inch interior display with high brightness, plus native stylus support via a Pen Ultra (sold separately) though there’s no built-in pen slot. It’s powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 with up to 1TB storage and strong RAM, delivering solid performance; the camera setup includes a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP telephoto, and a 50MP ultra-wide, with image quality often outperforming Samsung but not always rivaling Google's Night Sight in very dark conditions. Battery life is excellent thanks to a 6,000mAh cell, and charging is fast (up to 80W wired, 50W wireless) but requires purchasing Motorola’s adapters separately. The device is chunkier and heavier than the Z Fold 7 and has weaker dust resistance than the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, and the AI features feel lighter than rivals. Still, it offers strong displays, great battery life, stylus support, and competitive pricing at around $1,900, making it a compelling option for big foldables even as Samsung and Google hold advantages in design and AI features.

Apple Extends US Smartphone Lead as Motorola Closes in on Samsung

Counterpoint Research says Apple captured about 75% of US smartphone sales in Q1 2026, driven by iPhone 17, with Samsung’s Galaxy S26 arriving too late to close the gap; Motorola narrowed Samsung’s lead in prepaid to roughly 32% share as the overall US market fell 5.7% year over year. Verizon reported about 77% of activations on iOS, and analysts expect Apple to maintain pricing while Galaxy S26 gains traction later in 2026, with the iPhone 17e potentially widening budget appeal.

Razr Ultra vs Z Flip 7: Which folding phone nails design, power, and value?

PCMag compares Motorola’s Razr Ultra and Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 7, noting the Razr Ultra’s brighter 7-inch main display, 5,000mAh battery, and Snapdragon Elite 8 against the Z Flip 7’s lower price, configurable storage, mmWave 5G, and broader ecosystem; camera performance looks stronger on paper for Razr while real-world results depend on software; with full review pending, the Z Flip 7 offers better value for now, but Razr Ultra could win on battery life and display quality.

Motorola's 2026 Razr lineup arrives with bigger displays and higher price tags

Motorola announced its 2026 foldables—Razr, Razr+, Razr Ultra (clamshell) and Razr Fold (book-style)—with preorders starting May 14 and shelves May 21. Prices rise to $799.99, $1,099.99, $1,499.99 and $1,899.99, about $100–$200 higher across the lineup and in line with high-end rivals. Specs emphasize bigger displays (up to 7 inches internal on Fold/Ultra and 6.9 inches on Razr+), high-refresh exterior screens, and upgraded cameras (mostly 50MP triples). Chips vary by model: Razr Ultra with Snapdragon 8 Elite, Razr+ with 8s Gen 3, Razr with MediaTek Dimensity 7450X, and Razr Fold with Snapdragon 8 Gen 5. Batteries range from 4,800mAh to 6,000mAh with fast charging (and wireless/reverse charging on some); AI tools are also highlighted. Motorola frames the price increases as part of a broader RAM/AI memory crunch affecting devices this year.

Motorola Razr 2026 lineup raises prices but stacks up with big batteries and improved cameras

Motorola’s 2026 Razr lineup — Ultra, Plus and Razr 2026 — introduces silicon-carbon batteries and upgraded cameras across three price tiers: Ultra at $1,500 with a 5,000 mAh battery and 512GB storage, Plus at $1,100 with a 4,500 mAh battery and 256GB, and the base Razr 2026 at $800 with a 4,800 mAh battery and 128GB. The Ultra adds a LOFIC sensor for better dynamic range, the Plus shifts to a 50‑MP ultrawide, and the base model keeps dual 50‑MP rear cameras. Preorders begin May 14 with availability May 21 alongside the Razr Fold. While the design remains playful and premium, the higher prices—especially versus last year’s models—raise questions about value and the trade‑offs buyers will consider across screen sizes and storage options.

Motorola Signature nails the balance of form and function

Motorola's Signature sticks to a familiar design language but is executed exceptionally well: a slim, curved AMOLED display with a slightly textured back for grip, finished in Pantone Martini Olive, delivering solid speakers and a capable camera. An unmappable AI key on the left and a compact, unobtrusive camera island are the main quirks, and while the design isn’t radically new, it proves that good form can complement strong specs and value—aside from a minor rattle on flat surfaces and the missing headphone jack.

Motorola Razr Fold lands at $1,900 with a big battery and premium positioning

Motorola's Razr Fold is priced at $1,900 in the US (plus $100 for the Moto Pen Ultra) and goes on sale May 14, positioning it between the Pixel 10 Pro Fold ($1,800) and Galaxy Z Fold 7 ($2,000). It’s thinner and lighter than rivals but carries IP48/IP49 dust resistance. A 6,000mAh silicon-carbon battery could offer standout endurance, though the high price raises questions about value in today’s economy.

Motorola’s Razr Ultra 2026 sticks with its stylish foldable design but adds a 50MP main camera with LOFIC, a 5,000mAh battery, brighter inner display (up to 5,000 nits), and two new camera tricks—camcorder mode tilt-to-zoom and Frame Match—while keeping the 512GB/16GB RAM configuration at a $1,499 price (likely due to memory shortages). Preorders begin May 14 and units ship May 21.
