The Motorola Razr 40 Ultra foldable smartphone is set to launch later this year, with reports of its design already making waves among fans of the Razr line. The foldable phone, expected to succeed last year’s Moto Razr 2022, is rumored to come in two additional monikers–the Moto Razr 2023 and Moto Razr+. Owned by Lenovo, Motorola released the first phone in its bendable Razr line in 2020 with the hopes of revolutionizing the smartphone industry. Since then, the company has improved on the design, and this year’s Razr model promises even more exciting features.

According to tipster Evan Blass, the new Motorola Razr 40 Ultra foldable smartphone will come with a considerably bigger outer display than its predecessors.

Accompanied by an LED flash panel, the design renders are quite sleek, with some featuring the foldable phone sporting a red hinge.
Powerful Processor and High Refresh Rate: What to Expect
The phone is likely to be powered by an octa-core Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset and backed by a 3,640mAh battery unit with 33W fast charging support. The clamshell handset is expected to run Android 13 out-of-the-box with My UX 5 on top. With a 6.7-inch foldable OLED Full HD+ inner display panel, this foldable phone is sure to offer more than its predecessors. It also boasts a high refresh rate of 144Hz, making sure animations and graphics appear smoother than ever before.
