Motorola’s wide foldable will be the Razr Flex and launch in 2027, according to a support page Motorola posted by mistake, 9to5Google reports. Motorola hasn’t announced the phone, and the page gives no firm release date.
The 2027 window pushes the phone back from the 2026 release that earlier leaks pointed to. Anyone waiting for a wider Razr to answer the iPhone Duo and Galaxy Z Fold 8 now faces a 2027 date. 9to5Google reckons it almost certainly won’t arrive before the end of this year.
In September, Motorola teased it around Apple’s launch event, showing it in silhouette. A leak later that month tied the Razr Flex name to the wide design. In October, the phone turned up on Geekbench as the Razr Flex, its first sighting outside leaks. The support page is the first official word on the name.
9to5Google’s expectations for the Razr Flex, none of them confirmed by Motorola, include:
- a very compact body
- 3D glass and, at least, an attempt at a creaseless display
- seemingly two rear cameras, similar to Apple’s and Samsung’s wide foldables
- an outer display that might measure just 4.97 inches, much smaller than its rivals’
The Razr Flex would join the book-style Razr Fold in Motorola’s lineup, which beat the Galaxy Z Fold 7 on battery, cameras, and stylus in our review. Until the wide model arrives, our guide to the best foldable phones in the UAE covers the seven you can buy now. With its own support site, Motorola’s formal reveal is the next step.
