Motorola debuts book format with Razr Fold with giant battery and renews Edge line with Fusion model

Motorola was present at Mobile World Congress, held in Barcelona at the beginning of March, with the announcement of its definitive entry into the book-format foldables segment. The manufacturer unveiled the Razr Fold, a device that seeks to redefine mobile productivity with a large 8.1-inch internal screen and hardware specifications that prioritize energy autonomy. The event also served as the stage for the presentation of the Edge 70 Fusion, updating the brand’s family of premium mid-range smartphones with new camera and design technologies.

The company’s strategy for this year involves an aggressive bet on high energy density components and global strategic partnerships. Além of the devices, important collaborations with Fifa were confirmed for the Copa of the Mundo of 2026 and the adoption of new color standards in conjunction with the Pantone.

The launches hit the market with the promise of solving historical bottlenecks for mobile devices, such as battery life on large screens and corporate data privacy.

Technical details of the new foldable

The Razr Fold is designed to compete at the top of the market, equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor, which guarantees fluid performance for heavy multitasking and gaming. The internal screen reaches an impressive peak brightness of 6200 nits, a value that matches the external display, allowing full visibility even in direct sunlight, with both panels supporting Dolby Vision technology for high definition media consumption.

The rear camera system focuses on consistency, featuring three sensors of 50 megapixels each, covering the main, ultra-wide-angle and telephoto functions. The device’s engineering also focused on the durability of the hinge and integration with the Pen Ultra stylus, facilitating the use of the device as a portable workstation, capable of splitting the screen to operate multiple applications simultaneously.

Silicon-carbon battery revolutionizes autonomy

One of the biggest technical differences presented is the implementation of a 6000 mAh battery based on silicon-carbon technology. Essa chemical composition allows it to store more energy in a smaller physical space, maintaining the thin profile of the foldable smartphone without sacrificing load capacity.

The power management system supports up to 80W fast wired charging and 50W wireless charging. Energy efficiency was a central focus in development, aiming to ensure that high-brightness screens don’t drain the battery before the end of the day.

Innovations in the Edge line and regional specifications

The Edge 70 The rear finish uses materials that imitate linen, offering a different texture in black, green and white color options, moving away from the traditional pattern of glass or smooth plastic.

The camera specifications feature new components for the category:

– Main Sensor Sony 50-megapixel IMX710 for greater light capture.
– Lente 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle for landscape photos.
– Câmera 32 megapixel front optimized for video calls.
– Capacidade recording in 4K resolution with improved stabilization.

Internally, the global model is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, balancing performance and consumption. Curiosamente, the variant destined for the Indian market will receive a significant upgrade, featuring the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 processor and an even larger 7000 mAh battery, adapting the product to the specific demands of that region.

These hardware choices reflect an adaptation to the needs of different consumer markets.

Strategic partnerships and visual identity

The collaboration with Pantone resulted in the creation of “House of Moto Indigo”, the brand’s first exclusive global color that will be applied across the company’s entire visual identity, from physical products to digital interfaces and concept stores. Simultaneamente, the partnership with Fifa for the Copa of the 2026 Mundo, has generated limited editions of the football fans during the world championship.

Focus on security and corporate sector

Motorola announced an agreement with GrapheneOS Foundation to integrate the privacy-focused operating system into its enterprise devices. The initiative aims to offer an extra layer of data protection, starting with corporate models and with expansion plans for the end consumer.

The Moto Secure feature has been updated to automatically remove sensitive metadata, such as GPS location and date, from captured photos. Isso ensures that sharing images does not inadvertently expose the user’s personal information.

For device fleet management, Moto Analytics uses artificial intelligence to monitor the health and safety of devices in real time.

Price and global availability

The Razr Fold will reach the European market with a suggested price in the range of 1999 euros, positioning itself in the ultra-premium segment. Global availability is scheduled to occur in a staggered manner, with América expected to arrive at Norte during the summer of 2026.

Expanded accessory ecosystem

To complement the experience of the new smartphones, the Moto Buds 2 and Moto Buds 2 Plus headphones were revealed. The accessories focus on improved active noise cancellation and instant pairing with the brand’s devices.

The company has assured that regular software updates will maintain integration between the accessories and the new artificial intelligence features presented.
