The foldable smartphone has kicked off even before Samsung has rolled out their new 2023 models.
Earlier today Motorola rolled out a pre order deal with consumers offered a pair of Bose QuietComfort Earbuds which have a recommended retail value of $430 on the all-new Motorola Razr 40 Ultra which is retailing for $1,499.
In comparison the old Samsung Flip 4 with 256Mb of memory is selling for $1148. This is set to be replaced with a new model in August.
This deal makes the Motorola 40 the most affordable foldable phone to launch in Australia, with the entry level model selling for only $999.
Analysts claim that it will be interesting as to whether Samsung takes it up to Motorola when they launch their new models in July.
The 2022 Razr launched at $1,499, now Motorola is throwing in a pair of premium earbuds in an effort to lure customers into the Razr foldable which comes with dual screens and a one-on-one ratio for the front screen on the Ultra model.
The Razr 40 Ultra has the largest external display on a flip-style foldable to date.
Key specifications for the Razr 40 include a 6.9-inch 1080p+ display with a 144Hz refresh rate, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, IP52 splash-resistance, and a 4,200mAh battery. You’ll find a 64MP primary camera and 13MP ultra-wide camera paired with a 32MP selfie camera.
The big value proposition is the much larger 3.6-inch external display, which is the biggest yet on a flip-style foldable.
It is significantly bigger than the 1.9-inch cover display on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4.
The Razr 40 Ultra is now available to pre order at JB Hi Fi, Harvey Norman and Telstra.
It is available in a choice of infinite Black, Glacier Blue, or Viva Magenta with a vegan leather finish.
The more affordable Razr will be available to pre-order from July 10 ahead of a July 21 release date.
It will come in a choice of Sage Green, Vanilla White, and Summer Lilac. These all have a vegan leather finish.
