Motorola has officially entered India’s premium foldable smartphone market with the launch of the Motorola Razr Fold, the company’s first foldable smartphone in the country. The device combines flagship hardware, AI-powered software experiences, and an expansive foldable display as Motorola looks to compete with rivals such as Samsung and OnePlus in the ultra-premium smartphone category.
The Motorola Razr Fold features a 6.6-inch external LTPO AMOLED display with a 165Hz refresh rate that unfolds into a large 8.1-inch 2K Extreme AMOLED main screen.
Motorola says the display can reach up to 6,200 nits peak brightness and supports Dolby Vision, HDR10+, and Pantone-validated colours and skin tones for improved visual accuracy.
Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor, built on TSMC’s 3nm process, powers the foldable. The smartphone ships with Android 16-based Hello UI and comes with a promise of seven years of Android OS updates and security patches.
Motorola is also heavily focusing on Artificial Intelligence features through its Moto AI 2.0 platform, which includes AI-powered image generation, productivity tools, contextual suggestions, memory recall, and integration with Google Gemini.
Photography is positioned as one of the device’s biggest highlights. Motorola claims the Razr Fold offers the “world’s best foldable camera system”, recognised with the DXOMARK Gold Label. The device includes a triple 50MP rear camera setup featuring a Sony LYTIA 828 main sensor with optical image stabilisation, a 50MP Sony LYTIA 600 periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom and 100x Super Zoom Pro, and a 50MP ultrawide and macro lens. The foldable also supports 8K Dolby Vision video recording and AI-enhanced image processing features.
