TL;DR Motorola has teamed up with Swarovski again for a special-edition Razr 2026 featuring 35 crystals, plus a larger 32-facet crystal on the hinge.
It’s still a regular Razr 2026 underneath, with a 3.6-inch cover screen, 6.9-inch AMOLED display, dual 50MP cameras, and a 4,800mAh battery.
At $900, it’s $100 cheaper than last year’s Swarovski Razr but $100 pricier than the regular Razr 2026. Motorola is also bundling Moto Buds 2 Plus and a Moto watch for a limited time.
Motorola’s Razr phones already have one thing going for them that most smartphones don’t: they’re genuinely fun to look at. Between the flip-phone form factor, bright colors, and compact design, a Razr tends to stand out even before you open it. And this isn’t Motorola’s first time adding some extra sparkle, either. The company teamed up with Swarovski for a crystal-covered Razr last year, and now the Razr 2026 is getting the same treatment.
The new special-edition Motorola Razr 2026 comes in a dark PANTONE Meteorite finish, but the color is really playing backup here. The star of the show is the collection of 35 Swarovski crystals individually positioned across the back of the phone. Motorola has paired them with a quilted, leather-like texture, so instead of looking like someone attacked a Razr with a bedazzling kit, there’s at least some thought behind the whole aesthetic.

There’s even a larger 32-facet Swarovski crystal built into the hinge. Considering the hinge is already one of the most recognizable parts of a flip phone, putting a crystal there feels appropriately over-the-top.
More importantly, this isn’t merely a decorative phone with mediocre hardware underneath. You still get the regular Razr 2026 experience, including its 3.6-inch cover screen. Unfold it, and there’s a much larger 6.9-inch AMOLED display waiting inside. The company has also equipped the phone with a dual 50MP camera system and a 4,800mAh battery, claiming more than 36 hours of use on a charge.
