Motorola has taken a break for a couple of years after launching its final foldable telephone, the Motorola Razr 2020, however we now know that it is received a Razr 2022 on the way in which – as a result of the corporate itself has confirmed as a lot.

Posting on Weibo (opens in new tab), a Chinese language social media platform, Motorola has teased its upcoming folding telephone intimately, offering a take a look at the design in addition to specs for the factor.

You possibly can see the primary picture above – it reveals two rear cameras, in addition to a big outer show that appears to have a great deal of features. Individually, the model confirmed that the telephone will use the Snapdragon eight Plus Gen 1 chipset, a top-end processor that’ll present numerous processing energy.

The telephone is being teased alongside the Moto X30 Professional, which we now know can have 125W quick charging and three rear cameras.

Each are set to debut on August 2, one other factor that these teasers affirm, which is once we’ll discover out all the opposite specs of the telephones.

It is not clear if it’s going to be a worldwide unveiling or only a Chinese language one. In the previous few years Motorola has made a concerted effort at breaking into the Chinese language market, launching a couple of merchandise that do not make their solution to the remainder of the world, however hopefully we’ll see the Razr globally.

Evaluation: a busy time for foldables

The Motorola Razr 2022’s launch date, of August 2, means it’s going to debut simply eight days earlier than a detailed rival, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4.

This can have the very same type issue – a ‘clamshell’ folding telephone – in addition to doubtless equally high-end specs, and presumably an analogous worth too.

The Z Flip Four will doubtless go on sale quickly after its August 10 unveiling, so we’ll need to see if the Razr 2022 will get an analogous launch date or whether or not it arrives in second place – if it comes earlier than the Z Flip, it might sway folks excited by shopping for a brand new clamshell.

The Z Flip Four is anticipated to debut alongside the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4, in order that’s going to be a giant day for folding telephones – it seems like the primary half of August will carry us numerous new members of that rising area of interest.
