Motorola's new Razr foldable phone features a special mode called Unplugged, designed to minimize distractions and help users manage their screen time. Similar to Apple's Focus mode, Unplugged allows users to temporarily hide all apps except for the ones they need, preventing habitual use of distracting apps. The mode will be available on the new Razr and will be coming to the Razr Plus in the future. Motorola's move reflects the growing trend of younger Gen Z users seeking ways to disconnect from technology. The Unplugged mode completely hides apps from the operating system until turned off, providing a more immersive experience.
Motorola has unveiled two new Razr models in India, the Razr 40 Ultra and Razr 40, which could give an indication of the pricing for the non-premium Razr (2023) in the U.S. The Razr 40 Ultra is priced at Rs 89,999 ($1,098), while the Razr 40 is priced at Rs 59,999 ($732). Based on these prices, it is speculated that the non-premium Razr (2023) could be priced between $649-$699 in the U.S. The non-premium model features a ticker-style external screen instead of the larger QuickView display found on the premium model, along with a Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC and a 144Hz refresh rate.
Motorola has launched its latest Razr foldable phones in India, with the standard model starting at approximately $732. This pricing could hint at an aggressive price for the standard variant in the US, possibly around $699 or $649. The standard Razr features a 6.9-inch 144Hz OLED foldable screen, a mid-range Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC, and a 4,200mAh battery, but lacks the premium variant's giant cover display. Other notable features include a dual rear camera system, eSIM support, and a solid update commitment.
Motorola has removed the iconic chin from its new Razr (2023) and Razr Plus, giving the compact folding phones a unique identity. The move is a significant shift from the company's previous strategy of relying on nostalgia to sell its phones. The Razr Plus, in particular, stands out with its modern design and massive 3.6-inch pOLED cover screen. While Motorola has made some missteps, such as offering a generic purple color, the new designs show promise and could help the company regain its footing in the mobile market.
Motorola has launched its new Razr+ and Razr clamshell folding phones, with the Razr+ featuring a 3.5-inch cover display that wraps around the cameras of the phone. However, the large cover screen has resulted in the phone having a last year's chip, average battery life, and an ancient camera. The $1,000 price tag may not be worth it for those who want a phone with the best performance, battery life, and camera. The Motorola Razr+ may have a limited target audience of people specifically interested in an Android folding phone with a large cover display.
One in five people purchasing Motorola's Razr phone were iPhone users, according to a Motorola executive. The popularity of the throwback flip phone may be the reason for the switch. Apple is rumored to be working on a foldable phone of its own, but has yet to release one. Some younger buyers may not be impressed by the retro energy of flip phones.

The Razr+ will be available for $1,000 in the US and €1,200 in Europe. The base Razr will be "meaningfully cheaper" and will have a Snapdragon 7 Gen 1, 128GB of storage, a larger 4,200mAh battery, and a higher-resolution 64MP main camera.
