Motorola’s razr is known exclusively for only one type of foldable: the clamshell phone. Even before foldables were a thing in today’s landscape, the razr has already been creating cool kids from the aughts. Today, the lineup is flipping the story, if you will, by launching its first book-type foldable simply called the razr fold.

For the first time, the razr fold brings the horizontally folding form factor to the motorola family. The already sizable 6.6-inch external display unfolds into a larger 8.1-inch 2K LTPO main screen. Thickness wise, the folded 9.9mm thin form factor unfolds into a 4.6mm thin device. Even better, the foldable will be the world’s first smartphone to rock the newly announced Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 3, which boasts 75 percent better drop performance compared to older devices.

Inside, the phone carries the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor, paired with 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of internal storage. This package of performance works well whether you’re using the phone as a smartphone, in tent mode, or laptop mode (which isn’t a mode often advertised by foldables).

For cameras, the razr fold reportedly has the best foldable smartphone camera system, according to its DXOMARK Gold Label. The trio consists of a 50-megapixel Sony LYTIA 828 main sensor, a 50-megapixel Sony LYTIA 600 periscope telephoto lens, and a 50-megapixel 122° FOV ultrawide lens. This trio is paired with a 32-megapixel internal selfie cam and a 20-megapixel external selfie cam.

Finally, the razr fold will come with a 6000mAh battery, supported by 80W TurboPower, which can refuel the battery for more than 12 hours in just 12 minutes.

There’s no word on price and availability yet, but motorola says the foldable should be out in North America within the coming months.

Samsung introduces Flex Titanium tech for foldable displays

To debut with Samsung’s next-gen Galaxy foldable devices

Samsung has unveiled the new Flex Titanium technology for its next generation of Galaxy foldable devices.

The redesigned display structure utilizes structural and material advancements to deliver a more refined viewing experience. This included enhanced durability and reduced crease visibility.

Flex Titanium integrates two titanium-based components: a titanium-alloy film and a titanium plate. These work together to balance slimness, flexibility, and strength — all within the foldable display structure.

The new Flex Titanium technology will debut with Samsung’s next-generation Galaxy foldable devices, with details to be unveiled at Galaxy Unpacked.

Samsung said it took a new approach to structural design to create a display that provides an immersive viewing experience while withstanding everyday use for years and years.

Titanium offered the right mix to put check mark on all three factors: strength for external shock, flexibility for repeated folding, and thinness for device fit.

The titanium-alloy film is a component that supports the display from within, sitting below the OLED panel. This has a mechanical stiffness 20 times better than polymer film.

A precision rolling process makes the external material exceptionally thin, measuring roughly one-third the thickness of an average human hair.

Below the film is a robust titanium plate for tighter bonding with the display module. It eliminates air gaps between module and the adhesive on the plate through an advanced hole processing technology.

Coming in just a heartbeat, Samsung will unveil the next foldables during the upcoming Unpacked event. The spotlight, naturally, lands on the rumored wide foldable. Now, we don’t have an official look yet, but a new leak is spoiling that for us.

Leaked by Android Headlines, the upcoming foldable, purportedly named the Galaxy Z Fold 8, looks as advertised. The brand’s first wide foldable takes a few inches off the top to deliver a, literally, wide resolution for more display real estate.

There’s not much to say about the specs, but the model does have a camera setup with two shooters. It will also be available in three colorway options: black, white, and lavender. A limited-edition green variant might also make an appearance.

Among the scheduled devices this coming Unpacked, the wide foldable is the main event. Plus, the new leak reveals that a regular Fold isn’t debuting with this batch. Rather, Samsung might go all-in on the wide foldable format.

If that’s not your style, the leak also unveiled the Galaxy Z Flip 8. The new model doesn’t look different from the usual Flips that we’re used to, so it’s not a big headline.

Finally, the leak reveals the Galaxy Watch 9 and the Watch Ultra 2.

It won’t be long before we see these devices for real. Samsung has officially scheduled the next Galaxy Unpacked event for July 22.

Honor might launch the Robot Phone in August, leak says

No word on whether it’s a global or a regional launch, though.

Back in CES earlier this year, Honor unveiled the oddly shaped Robot Phone. A unique concept of a smartphone melded with an action camera, the Robot Phone teased a launch date for the third quarter of this year. Well, we’re in the third quarter now, and a new leak has teased that the one-of-a-kind phone is launching in August.

According to Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station (via GizmoChina), Honor has narrowed down August as the launch date of its new smartphone. To be clear, the leaker did not clarify whether this is a global launch or just the regional one.

It should still be an exciting time for a launch, though. The lovechild between a smartphone and an action camera comes just in time for the era of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 and the Insta360 Luna. A hybrid device scratches both itches.

Honor isn’t shy about showcasing the capabilities of the Robot Phone. Only recently, the Chinese brand showed off the first professional video shot using the new phone.

When it comes to hardware, the Robot Phone touts a 200-megapixel main camera attached to a stabilized gimbal system. If not in use, the camera folds into the device. Super Steady Video keeps the camera steady when taking shots while moving. Meanwhile, AI Object Tracking follows subjects seamlessly, making it a great tool for shooting videos in the field.
