The Razr 2022 is now available to compete with popular foldable phone brands like Samsung, Xiaomi, and Huawei. While it shares similarities with the 2022 Razr 5G, it also has a number of design and hardware improvements, including one that is exclusive to this folding phone. You can get all the details regarding the Razr 2022, including its release date, price, and specifications, here.

The service will go live on August 15 in China and other unconfirmed markets. Now that the Razr 2022 and the X30 Pro have been officially launched (despite the 2 August even being postponed at the last minute), we can inform you that the phone will go on sale in China on August 15. The Razr 2022 is now only available in China, but it's anticipated that other regions will get it soon. Since previous Razr models, like the original Motorola Razr, were available around the world, it seems likely that the newest model will be, too.

Motorola Razr 2022: Price

The Razr 2022's official price in China is listed below, along with conversions to US dollars and British pounds:

This indicates that the phone is significantly less expensive than its predecessor, which cost $1,399 or £1,399, as expected. At least, according to the converted numbers. Additionally, it costs less than the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4, which has an MSRP of $999 or £999.

Motorola Razr 2022 specifications:

• Updated square design with no chin
• 6.7-inch OLED 144Hz display
• 2.7-inch front-facing screen
• 50Mp primary camera
• Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1
• RAM up to 12GB and storage up to 512GB

We have all the specifications and other information you require now that the phone has been formally revealed. Let's start with the screens. As rumors had it, the internal panel is a 6.7-inch P-OLED. This implies that in order for the larger display to be accommodated, the trademark chin design (available in black or white) is no more. It has a 10-bit screen, HDR10+ support, DC dimming, and a refresh rate of 144Hz, which is higher than the expected 120Hz and the highest refresh rate of any foldable to date.

The inside teardrop form of the phone when closed has a radius of 3.3mm and was minimized by a gapless folding design. The Razr's hinge design allows it to be held open at various angles while having the screen divided in half for various uses. Additionally, it enables the use of the cameras when the phone is in "tripod" mode and placed flat. Turning to the outer screen, it appears to be still 2.7 inches (rather than the rumored 3 inches) and offers nine widgets for various functions, including, of course, the ability to take selfies.

You can utilize the 50Mp main camera with OIS for those selfies. It has 1.0 m pixels on a 1/1.55 in. sensor (2.0 m pixels with 4-in-1 binning). Another option is a 13-megapixel ultrawide camera with a 121-degree field of view with autofocus, which enables 2.8-cm macro pictures. Upon opening the Razr 2022, a 32-megapixel punch-hole camera is seen. Moving on to the internal components, Motorola chose the top-of-the-line Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 to power the phone alone with either 8GB or 12GB of RAM after considering mid-range chips.

The remaining storage options are 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB (perhaps depending on the market), with only the largest matched with 12GB of RAM. We're glad to share that the battery capacity has increased to 3500mAh (from 2800mAh) and that charging is now 33W faster. You get Dual-SIM, 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, NFC, and a USB-C connector in terms of connectivity. Once more, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner is present. The software is completed with Android 12 and Motorola's MyUI 4.0 skin. This is Ready For 3.5 compatible, so users can connect it to an external display to enjoy a desktop environment.
