Motorola is expected to launch the budget-oriented smartphone, dubbed the Moto E6 in the following weeks.

Foldable Moto Razr 2019 Leaked Images Show Packaging

The Moto Razr has been one of the most iconic mobile phones of the connected era. The touch screen smartphone paved the way for a candy bar only design, leaving other form factors far behind.

2019 is an interesting year as it has shown off a newer possibility for a display design, the foldable display smartphone. This new foldable display technology was first publicly launched by Samsung, followed swiftly by Huawei and many others.

This makes it the idea time for Motorola to show off their Foldable Moto Razr concept. The device will be based on a foldable plastic OLED panel that will allow the brand to retain the clamshell design of the original phone.

The device will also be packed with the Snapdragon 855 chipset along with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

The new leaked image also shows off the packaging of the phone and the display notch on the top of the screen. You can also partially see the hinge mechanism.

The image is not very high resolution and could possibly be a good quality render. However if Motorola is indeed working on a foldable Razr phone, this is pretty close to what it should look like.

The patent filings of the device are very close to the image now leaked. But it is still unclear if Motorola will proceed with launch after the recent issues with the Galaxy Fold.

Motorola will ideally add another screen on the front of the clamshell fold, which may be used for notifications or front facing selfies. However, the first generation Moto Razr may only have the one Foldable display, reserving the secondary display for the redesign in 2020.

Motorola Razr Foldable Phone Launch Imminent Suggests Bluetooth SIG Listing
Motorola is soon expected to launch the modern avatar of its flip phone, the Moto Razr from the year 2004.

The upcoming smartphone was previously speculated to launch in the month of February, which apparently did not happen. However, a fresh listing of the Moto Razr on the Bluetooth SIG website suggests that its launch is imminent.

Bluetooth SIG And Its Significance

Bluetooth SIG, short for Bluetooth Special Interest Group is the standards organisation that supervises the development of Bluetooth standards and the licensing of the Bluetooth technologies to manufacturers. It is mandatory for smartphone OEMs to get its devices certified with the organisation before they are launched. Consequently, the fresh listing of the Moto Razr suggests that its launch is imminent. In accordance with past claims, the listing also reveals, the upcoming smartphone will initially be offered via the Verizon telecom provider from the US.

Motorola Razr Features and Price

Although the Bluetooth SIG does not reveal any specifications of the Moto Razr, they were leaked in the past. The upcoming smartphone will reportedly feature a 6.2 inch OLED inner display that has a pixel density of 2142 x 876 px. It will also have a smaller cover display that has a pixel density of 800 x 600 px. The smartphone will be kitted with the Snapdragon 710 SoC which consists of an Octa-Core CPU and Adreno 616 GPU.

The upcoming foldable Moto Razr will reportedly be powered by a 2730 mAh battery which will support fast charging. In terms of memory and storage, it will be available in two storage options which are as follows:
- 4GB RAM and 64GB ROM
- 6GB RAM and 128GB ROM
