Motorola Razr Fold Brings Book-Style Foldable to India
Motorola has officially launched its first book-style foldable smartphone, the Motorola Razr Fold, in India. This new device, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, arrives as a direct competitor to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 5G and Vivo X Fold 5. The Razr Fold starts at INR 149,999 ($1,565) for the 12 GB RAM and 256 GB storage variant, while the top-tier 16 GB + 512 GB model is priced at INR 159,999 ($1,670). Motorola also offers a special FIFA World Cup Edition priced at INR 169,999 ($1,775).
Key Specifications and Features of Motorola Razr Fold
The Razr Fold runs on the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor, paired with up to 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of internal storage, though it lacks expandable storage options. It operates on Android 16 out of the box, with Motorola committing to seven major Android updates, potentially up to Android 23, and seven years of security patches through 2033.
Display and Design
This foldable phone features a book-style design with two LTPO P-OLED screens: an 8.1-inch main display supporting a 120 Hz refresh rate and a resolution of 2484 x 2232 pixels, and a 6.6-inch cover display running at 165 Hz with 1080p resolution. These dual displays enable both immersive usage and quick access without unfolding. Related coverage: Motorola Razr Fold FIFA World Cup Edition Launches in.
