A couple of months ago, Motorola unveiled its latest generation of flip phones. The new lineup consisted of the Razr 50 and Razr 50 Ultra. But now, it seems a new budget friendly option might be launching soon carrying the Razr 50s moniker. So let’s check it out.

Motorola Razr 50s: Budget Flip Phone May Launch Soon

The Razr 50s first surfaced online back in September 2024 on the HDR10+ certification. This same model went official later in the same month after going on reservation on Softbank. Thanks to this, the Motorola Razr 50s had its design revealed in three different color options, namely Koala Grey, Sand Cream, and Spritz Orange. So the Razr 50s is already available in the Japanese market, but its global release is still unclear.

But now, the upcoming flip phone has been spotted on the Google Play Console Supported Products List (Via TheTechOutlook). Unfortunately, the online database does not reveal any finer details regarding this phone like its availability, specs, or more. However, it does hint that the global market debut might be right around the corner. The listing confirms that Motorola’s new flip phone carries the ‘aito’ codename, while also confirming the Moto Razr 50s moniker.

The previous Japanese launch gives us an idea regarding the new budget foldable phone. Motorola unveiled the Razr 50s was announced with a 6.9-inch OLED foldable main screen along with a 3.6-inch OLED cover panel. Under the hood, it is equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 7300X processor, which is paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The device runs on the Android 14 OS out of the box and houses a 4,200mAh battery pack. The rear has a 50MP + 13MP dual camera setup, while the front has a 32MP selfie shooter. Other notable features include Bluetooth 5.4, IPX8 rating, and an in-display fingerprint scanner.

Motorola launched the Razr 50 and Razr 50 Ultra back in June this year. Now the company is expanding the Razr 50 lineup with a new model called the Razr 50s. This model is scheduled to be released on September 27 and is already available for reservation on Softbank. The Moto Razr 50s will arrive in three different color options – Koala Grey, Sand Cream, and Spritz Orange.

Judging from the images, the Razr 50s comes with very similar bezels on both the inner and outer display as compared to the Razr 50. The aspect ratio of the outer display is also very similar to the predecessor.

Motorola Razr 50s has also been spotted on Geekbench

While the listing does not reveal much about the internals of the device, the recently spotted (via 91mobiles) Geekbench listing does. As can be seen, the phone scores 1040 and 1003 in single and multi-core tests respectively. The listing further reveals that the chipset has a base frequency of 2.00 GHz and a (4+4) core architecture, which is paired with 8GB RAM.

For context, the Motorola Razr 50 scores around 1033 and 2751 in the same tests. it suggests that the Razr 50s will not be a downgrade at least in terms of performance. The Geekbench listing also reveals that the phone will come with Android 14. This is all the information the Geekbench listing reveals.

The Moto Razr 50s has already received HDR10+ certification, which means that the device will come with an HDR10+ compatible display.

Notably, the Razr 40 series includes only two models: the Razr 40 and Razr 40 Ultra.

To give you an idea of what to expect, the standard Motorola Razr 50 packs a 6.9″ foldable AMOLED panel for the inner display and a 3.6″ AMOLED panel for the outer display. The phone is powered by the Dimensity 7300X chipset, which also has a base clock speed of 2.00 GHz. This is paired with an optional 256GB or 512GB of UFS 2.2 storage and 8GB or 12GB RAM. The outer screen on the Razr 50 has three cutouts for a 50 MP main, a 13MP ultrawide, and a flash module.

Looks like the Razr party isn’t over yet. While Motorola is gearing up for the September 9th launch of the Razr 50 in India, a new leak suggests a possible “lite” version could be in the works. 

The folks at MySmartPrice spotted the Motorola Razr 50s on the HDR10+ certification website, confirming the upcoming phone’s name and, more importantly, its display tech.

The “s” in the Razr 50s moniker is the first clue. It often signifies a more affordable variant in Motorola’s lineup. While details are scarce beyond the HDR10+ certification, this could be Motorola’s answer to the ever-growing demand for foldable phones at a more budget-friendly price point.

Right now, the Razr 50s remains a mystery. We don’t have any specifics on the processor, camera setup, or even the size of the main foldable display.  

However, considering the flagship Razr 50 boasts a 3.6-inch external screen with Gorilla Glass Victus protection and a 50MP main camera, it’s possible the 50s might borrow some of these features in a slightly pared-down version.

The smartphone could soon appear on other certifications like Geekbench to reveal other details of the phone. In the meantime, let’s quickly take a recap of the full specs of the Motorola Razr 50 launching on September 9.
