Following the successful resurgence of the Razr flip phone, Motorola is taking the lineup and adding a new form factor to the mix: a fully-fledged book-style foldable. The Motorola Razr Fold was revealed at CES 2026, with Motorola teasing a new stylus pen alongside it, though the company didn't reveal everything.
It seems Motorola is keeping many of the specs and details under wraps, while giving us enough to get us excited. So while there's a lot we don't know about the Razr Fold, here's what we do know and what we can glean as we wait for the full launch of Motorola's first book-style foldable.
Motorola Razr Fold: Price and availability
Motorola is keeping pretty mum about the pricing and availability of the Razr Fold. However, we can infer from what we've seen in the market and from Motorola's current foldables.
Regarding price, Motorola hasn't confirmed it, but we wouldn't be surprised if the phone were priced around $1,799. This would pit it directly with the likes of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold while undercutting the Galaxy Z Fold 7. That said, rising DRAM prices could affect this, but we also know that Motorola usually prefers to match or undercut its competition to make its devices more appealing.
One rumor points to Motorola taking things even further by starting prices as low as $1,500, which would be quite impressive.
As for availability, the Razr Fold will arrive later this year, with summer as the target launch date, although Motorola says we will learn more about the phone "in the coming months." That would pit the phone against Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8.
Motorola Razr Fold: Design
The design of the Razr Fold resembles a mix of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold with a dash of Motorola. The overall chassis doesn't look too different from many of the best foldable phones on the market. The outer 6.6-inch display appears to have a similar aspect ratio to a non-folding smartphone, while the inner 8.1-inch panel features a single camera in the top right corner. The corners are also not very rounded, with bumpers lining the inner display.
Where things differ from other foldables is the rear panel. Instead of glass, Motorola appears to be opting for vegan leather, although with seemingly different finishes for both the Pantone Blackened Blue and Pantone Lily White color options.
Motorola is also giving the Razr Fold its signature camera design, with what appears to be an aluminum housing that protrudes from the back panel. This is similar to Motorola's phones over the past few years, particularly its flagships.
What we don't know is how thin the Razr Fold is. Thinness has become a major focus over the past year, particularly on foldable phones, which led to the impressive 4.6mm-thin Galaxy Z Fold 7. Fortunately, the Razr Fold looks thin enough to compete with the best of them, aside from the camera protrusion.
Another thing we notice is the button layout. While the typical power and volume buttons are present, there's also a fourth button, which is likely an AI Key.

So far, Motorola hasn't revealed much of the Razr Fold specs, but some have been confirmed (emboldened in the above spec sheet), including the display sizes and camera resolutions. The inner display will feature a 2K resolution, and while it's not clear what the external display resolution will be, we can probably expect a Full HD+ resolution.
As for the cameras, we're looking at a triple 50MP system with an unidentified Sony Lytia sensor for the primary camera, which will be capable of Dolby Vision recording. The ultrawide camera doubles as a macro sensor, while the telephoto sensor features 3x optical zoom. There are also two selfie cameras, with a 20MP sensor on the inner display and a 32MP sensor on the external screen.
Everything else is assumed or unknown. Given its positioning, the foldable is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, Qualcomm's latest, along with 16GB of RAM. However, it's possible Motorola could opt for the slightly underpowered Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 to keep the price down. This would help it achieve the rumored $1,500 price tag.
Battery capacity is unknown, though we hope Motorola will take what it's learned from the Edge 70 and use a silicon-carbon battery for a thinner, denser pack, maybe 5,000mAh or more. It's also likely the Razr Fold will follow the Razr Ultra 2025 and other flagship Motorola phones and feature 68W wired charging. Qi2-support is another unknown, however.
Motorola Razr Fold: Software
The Motorola Razr Fold will likely run the latest version of Hello UX, based on Android 16. Given that this is the company's first book-style foldable, we expect the software to adapt to the larger internal display to make better use of the screen real estate, with features like a taskbar for pinned apps. Motorola highlights as much, noting that the Razr Fold will feature flexible layouts, adaptive interfaces, and multitasking enhancements.
Motorola also highlights AI features available on the Fold. This includes current Moto AI features like Catch me up and Next Move, but it will likely also include Motorola Qira, the company's upgraded AI solution. This will enable features that work across devices for better productivity and contextual awareness.
That said, we hope Motorola's software update promise will grow this year. Right now, its U.S.-based phones are supported for as long as four years, while other companies promise up to seven years.
Motorola Razr Fold: Moto Pen Ultra
Motorola also introduced the Moto Pen Ultra, a stylus pen that can basically be seen as Motorola's version of the S Pen. Unlike the passive stylus pens that are included with the Moto G Stylus lineup of phones, this is an active pen with features such as tilt detection, pressure sensitivity, and even palm rejection to ensure that your sketches or other pen work go uninterrupted.
Motorola also highlights other AI-powered features, such as Google's Circle to Search and Motorola's own Sketch to Image, to give your drawings some added flair. There's also Quick Clip, which lets you easily create a new note or add to an existing one by highlighting text, and Speed Share, which suggests who to send notes or annotations to. And like the S Pen, users can access features from a quick-access toolbar.
Motorola doesn't say how long the Moto Pen Ultra lasts on a single charge, but the carrying case can fully charge the pen if needed.
