Motorola Razr series hits India, hints at standard Razr price in US

Motorola launched the 2023 Razr collection within the US final week, consisting of the usual Razr and the extra succesful Razr Plus. We received a $999 price ticket for the Plus variant, however the firm didn’t dish out US pricing for the usual mannequin. Now, the brand new telephones have launched in India, and the Indian pricing would possibly give us a touch of what to anticipate for the usual variant within the US.

Motorola launched the Razr 40 and Razr 40 Extremely (as they’re identified outdoors the US) in India yesterday, and the telephones begin at Rs 59,999 (~$732) and Rs 89,999 (~$1,098) respectively.

This pricing may give us a tough thought of what to anticipate for the usual mannequin’s US worth. The Razr Plus retails for $999 within the US, making it cheaper than the ~$1,098 Indian worth. By that logic, we may see a $699 or $649 price ticket within the US based mostly on the usual mannequin’s ~$732 worth in India.

That is only a considerably educated guess, so it’s completely attainable that the ultimate worth is completely different altogether (e.g. $750 or $800). However, Motorola beforehand famous to journalists that the usual Razr could be “meaningfully cheaper” than the Razr Plus within the US.

Both method, you’re getting a 6.9-inch 144Hz OLED foldable display, a mid-range Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC, and a 4,200mAh battery right here. The usual Razr can be outfitted with 30W wired and 5W wi-fi charging. The telephone lacks the premium variant’s big cowl show although, choosing a tiny ticker display as an alternative.

Different notable options embrace a 64MP+13MP twin rear digicam system, an IP52 ranking, eSIM assist, and a stable replace dedication (three main OS updates and 4 years of safety patches).
