That Motorola is working on a new folding Razr is not news. Lenovo’s own CEO confirmed it months ago at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Since then, we’ve also heard about the brand’s apparent plans to release a cheaper version, unofficially known as the Razr Lite. But in the last few hours, the technical specifications that would correspond to the model with the highest benefits, which would be launched under the name of Razr 40 Ultra.
According to XDA Developers, the new foldable Motorola Razr would bring with it several novelties. One of the most striking is that it would not use a state-of-the-art processor. The Razr 40 Ultra It would come equipped with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1the same one that the manufacturer used in the 2022 model. If confirmed, it would be a curious choice, considering that Qualcomm has already launched the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for the high-end mobiles of 2023.
As for screens, everything indicates that the exterior will be 3.5 inches and with a resolution of 1056 x 1066 pixels. On the interior panel, it is not mentioned if it will repeat the 6.7 inches of its predecessor, although it is indicated that it will be AMOLED and that it will have a resolution of 2640 x 1080 pixels. The refresh rate data is still not certain, since some leaks suggest that it would be 120 Hz, while others indicate that Motorola would bet on 144 Hz again in its next folding Razr.
As for RAM, the latest Razr 40 Ultra leak points to a maximum of 12GB. While the storage would be up to 512GB. However, it is also rumored that Motorola would also launch a variant with 8 + 256 GB of memory and internal space, respectively.

The filtered data sheet of the new foldable Motorola Razr also allows a first look at the camera configuration.

Although for now it is unknown if they will be limited to specific markets. The new smartphone would also incorporate an NFC chip and is speculated to be compatible with the ultra-wideband (UWB) protocol.
As for the battery, for now there are no new details. It is rumored that the mobile would come with a double accumulator system that would give it a combined capacity of 3,640 mAh. However, nothing more has been known about it so far.
And if you’re wondering why Motorola would launch its next foldable under the name Razr 40 Ultra, it would be to unify nomenclature criteria with its other flagships. Let’s not forget that the Edge 40 Pro was made official at the beginning of April. Thus, the new foldables of the brand would adopt a similar denomination.
