Cinematic display

With the 6.2-inch FlexView display unfolded, the 21:9 CinemaVision aspect ratio gives users the option to view their content the way it was intended in the film industry.

When held vertically, the narrow design means it is easy to use with just one hand. The display works in harmony with Motorola’s unique hinge design, offering the only zero gap closure on a foldable device that protects the internal display and keeps Razr ultra-compact. A taller display also means easier multi-tasking when needed.

Unbelievable 5G speeds

With 5G networks rapidly expanding around the world, the Razr 5G has users covered now and for the future.
