Motorola re-entered the premium smartphone segment with the launch of Motorola Razr and Motorola Edge Plus this year. The former is even the brand’s first foldable smartphone. Now, according to an executive of the company, Motorola will be launching a 2nd Razr foldable device later this year.
The new Motorola Razr was received with critical reviews from media houses because of its delicate folding screen that makes a weird noise and a sub-par chip. This is not one expects from a $1499 smartphone.
Despite the rough start with foldables, the company is all into launching a 2nd-generation Motorola Razr in September. This piece of information comes directly from Thibault Dousson, the general manager of Lenovo South Africa. For the unaware, Motorola is owned by Lenovo, which it bought for $2.91 billion from Google in 2014.
The above-mentioned executive was recently interviewed by the Reframed Tech podcast. In which he told, “There’s a new iteration [of the Razr – ed] coming up. There’s one in September I think, coming up”.
This particular statement confirms the company is set to release a new iteration of Razr in the second half of the year. Unfortunately, he did not share any further information regarding it. Also, this device has not leaked yet, which is a good thing in today’s world of daily tech leaks.
On the other hand, the Motorola Razr has been updated to Android 10 with confirmed Android 11 update in the future. Further, the company has even promised two Android updates (11 & 12) for the Motorola Edge Plus.
