As the competition in the foldable smartphone market heats up, Motorola is gearing up to introduce its latest offering: the Razr 60. Following the success of its predecessor, the Razr (2024), which has been praised for its affordability in the US market, expectations are high for this new clamshell foldable. A recent leak sheds light on both the upgrades and potential downgrades we can expect, providing a sneak peek into what this innovative device may bring to consumers.

While the details from this leak appear credible, it's essential to approach them with caution until Motorola officially confirms the specifications. One particularly intriguing change is the reduction of the main display size from the Razr 50's 6.9 inches to 6.7 inches. Although it might sound slightly disappointing, this detail is still not set in stone.
The Razr 60, also known as Razr (2025), is expected to be released in the US under a simplified name, while a more advanced version, the Razr Plus (2025), is anticipated to launch globally as the Razr 60 Ultra. Although the Razr 60 maintains a similar aesthetic to its predecessor, it boasts fresh color options and impressive durability with its upgraded IP48 protection against dust and water.
Interestingly, despite the smaller display, the Razr 60 will feature a larger battery than the Razr 50, increasing from 4,200mAh to 4,500mAh. This enhancement bodes well for the device's overall performance and endurance, especially when compared to the Galaxy Z Flip 6, which houses a 4,000mAh battery.
Unanswered Questions Awaiting Clarity
Several key questions regarding the Motorola Razr 60 remain unanswered:
- What will be the pricing for the device in the US and other markets?
- When can we expect an official announcement and release date?
- Will there be a change in the secondary display size?
- Will the Razr 60 retain the 13MP ultra-wide rear camera and 15W wireless charging found in its predecessor?
While the rumored price of $699.99 for the 256GB model with 8GB of RAM seems reasonable, we still await more details. It’s unlikely that the cover display will reduce from its current size of 3.6 inches, and no significant changes in camera features or charging speeds are anticipated either.
The Razr 60 will transition from the base Razr 50's MediaTek Dimensity 7300X chipset to the newer Dimensity 7400X, enhancing its competitive edge against rivals like the Galaxy Z Flip series.
