GoKawiilMotorola's likely going to announce its next Razr phone lineup in the coming weeks, continuing the foldable Android phone line. There are already a number of rumors pertaining to it. We expect to see a base Razr, a Razr Plus and Razr Ultra, as Motorola continues to refine its take on the flip-style phone.
While the company hasn't yet teased any of these, we do know that any new flip-style phones will join Motorola's book-style Razr Fold, which is set to go on sale this summer.
Until Motorola does provide a look into its next line of flip phones, here's what we heard around the internet regarding the rumored phones' new designs, improved cameras and beefier specs.

Release date and price
We haven't heard of an official release date for the 2026 Motorola Razr just yet, but since last year's Motorola Razr launched in early to mid-May, we're expecting the same for this year too. As for price, we're guessing they'll either stay the same (the 2025 Razr starts at $700) or be more expensive due to the global RAM shortage and other world events.
Motorola has raised the price of some phones in its lower-cost Moto G line over their prior models, and it is possible the Razr line might follow suit.
Motorola's UK website has begun preorders for the Razr Fold with an £1,800 price for a model with 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage. Those preorders will be shipping in that country on May 6. However, pricing and availability will likely be different for the US market, which has yet to announce those details. For comparison, Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 costs £1,799 for a 256GB model, and starts at $2,000 in the US.
When it comes to the Razr Plus and Razr Ultra, if last year's prices are any indication, they'll probably be around the $1,000 ballpark or higher.
