The Motorola Razr was perceived to be one of the promising foldable mobile phones one could get in the market, although it somehow sputtered. Currently, on sale, the new Motorola Razr costs as much as a flagship device but lacks something per critics.

Of course, reviews on Motorola’s new Razr are variable. Some seem to be content with the latest version, although there are questions on its long-term durability. For a device that costs about $1,499 in the market, the latest offering from Motorola is bound to encounter rough sailing.

Despite these adversities, it appears Motorola remains bullish. In fact, there seems to be a slight alteration to make it conspicuous. By default, the device comes with an all-black exterior, which could be a dull and overlooked device when shown off. It appears the company took note of that and now plans to release a Blush Gold version. The Motorola Razr Gold version is reportedly set to be out by spring, although some feel it would be a minor improvement to entice market interest, Engadget reported.

The new Motorola Razr is still considered a mid-range phone. The price may be a bit off, but it does not take a genius to figure out that the reason behind that is the cost of producing one. Looking at it more closely, the foldable screen is likely to be the culprit – a piece that most mobile phone manufacturers are fronting as the big reason behind the high pricing.

It would be best to note that the gold version of the Motorola Razr does not mean that it will be significantly different. Rather, the gold coloring at the bottom half of the phone is limited. It does stand out, but for its price tag, enticing consumers to get one remains a big question mark.

In all, the Motorola Razr is an interesting device to get. It is compact and boasts of a unique groundbreaking design. Motorola has been known to be a known player when it comes to foldable phones. But the mid-tier specs could turn some potential buyers off.

Among the specifications, the Motorola Razr has to offer to include a main 6.2-inch OLED folding display screen, a 2.7-inch GOLED front screen, 16 MP main camera, 5 MP front-facing camera, and something that will run on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 SoC. The foldable phone will also have 6 GB RAM on board and 128 GB of internal storage. It will rely on a 2510 mAh battery and have Android 9.0 onboard as detailed by T3.com.
