Motorola Razr Fold is Moto

• Motorola reveals the Razr Fold
• 8.1-inch internal screen, with a 6.6-inch cover display
• 5 cameras, including a 20MP internal front-facing camera

Perhaps emboldened by the warm reception to its Razr Ultra, Motorola is expanding its line (both in number and physically) with an all-new Motorola Razr Fold.

Announced at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, the Razr Fold brings Motorola into foldable tablet territory, but with its signature style and some photographic tricks it learned from the impressive Razr Ultra. It’s also one of the larger foldables, coming in with an 8.1-inch screen unfolded and a 6.6-inch cover display.

There aren’t many details on those displays beyond size, though Motorola lists the large flexible screen as LPTO, which should mean it’ll offer a variable refresh rate that might run from 1Hz to 120Hz, and would put it on firm competitive footing against the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7’s main display.

One area, though, where the Motorola Razr Fold is already set to outdo the chief competition is in creativity. The new device will support Moto Pen Ultra input and palm rejection. While Motorola did not confirm, that would indicate a digitizing layer, something Samsung lost on its now ultra-thin Z Fold 7.

The cameras also sound fairly impressive. There are five in total, including a 50MP ultrawide that also supports macro photography, a 3x optical zoom 50MP, and a 50MP main wide camera.

Motorola also pushes the envelope a bit on the remaining cameras. There’s a 20MP internal camera on the main screen (double what Samsung offers on the Z Fold 7) and a beefy 32MP selfie camera on the cover screen.

We were impressed with the Razr Ultra’s photographic capabilities, so I’m expecting good things from these lenses. We do know that the cameras will support Dolby Vision video capture.

Details on things like processor, RAM, actual size, and weight are scarce after that (provided images do depict a relatively thin device). Motorola promises to deliver more details, like price, in the coming months.

There is some promising news on the software front, like on-device AI, multitasking, adaptive interfaces, and helpful features such as “Catch me up.”

There will be a couple of Pantone-inspired color choices: Blackened Blue and Lily White.

Still, we’ll have questions, like why is the camera bump so big (though we’d guess it’s to support all those high-megapixel cameras)? And will the Razr Fold also feature the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite?

The good news is that we should get a closer look at the handset this week at CES.
