Motorola might finally be ready to expand beyond its Razr clamshells. A new hint suggests the company is preparing a book-style foldable for January next year, something it has avoided until now.
The clue didn’t come from a social media post or a press briefing. Instead, it surfaced through Motorola’s corporate holiday gift package, which Android Headlines’ Alex Maxham shared online. Inside was a wooden notepad stamped with the line: “Every fold reveals a possibility.” The box also included a note pointing to Lenovo Tech World on January 6, 2026, saying the company is “getting ready to unfold new perspectives.”
It’s not hard to connect the dots. Motorola hasn’t confirmed anything publicly, but the wording strongly suggests a book-style foldable rather than another Razr update. The timing also lines up: the Razr 70 series is still expected in mid-2026, so whatever Motorola is teasing here appears to sit in a different category entirely.
This comes as Motorola is also building interest around its next premium slab phone, commonly referred to as the Edge 70 Ultra. The name hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, but the device is expected to use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5. This speculation makes sense, considering the last “Ultra” model — the Edge 50 Ultra from 2024 — shipped with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3.
If the company really is preparing a book-style model — unofficially dubbed the “Motorola Fold” — it would go up against Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold7 and other large-format foldables like the Pixel 10 Pro Fold. It would also mark a new direction for Motorola’s premium lineup, giving it a device aimed at users who want more screen space for multitasking and entertainment.
Motorola tying the tease to Lenovo Tech World suggests it wants a bigger stage for the reveal. With January 6, 2026 circled on the calendar, we’ll likely hear more soon. For now, the message seems clear enough: Motorola is finally getting ready to join the book-style foldable club.
