Motorola shows off AI-powered concept phone that can bend around your wrist
Motorola has showcased a bunch of AI concept models with interesting capabilities, along with a phone that can fold around your wrist.
Artificial Intelligence is at the center of the world of technology, with pretty much all major tech players investing heavily in generative AI (GAI). So far, the headlines in this area have been dominated by chatbots like ChatGPT, Bing Chat, and Google Bard and AI copilots to improve productivity, but Motorola has now showcased a concept phone that not only leverages AI-powered capabilities but also wraps around your wrist like a watch.
Motorola's new Razr lineup debuted in 2023 and was quickly beloved by us at XDA. We first reviewed the Motorola Razr+ first and found it to be the best clamshell foldable available at the time, but it's quite expensive at $100. That's where the Motorola Razr (2023) came in, offering a similar experience in a sleek design with a 144 Hz refresh display, but at a considerably lower cost of $600. On the flip side, Samsung released one of their most refined editions of the former 'clamshell king' with the Galaxy Z Flip 5. Today we will be pitting the Motorola Razr (2023) head-to-head with the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 to see which one comes out on top.

Although the North American market had to wait a bit for the great smartphone, the Motorola Razr (2023) is finally here as the most affordable folding phone yet.

At $600, the Motorola Razr (2023) is far and away the cheapest foldable you can get, which makes it one of the best foldables out there. As such, it's a great option for people who want the folding phone experience without breaking the bank. Regardless of the price tag, you'll want to keep the Razr (2023) safe with a great case. Though options are limited, we've rounded up the best ones here, and we'll update it as more become available.
Motorola Razr (2023) review: The price doesn't make sense
The Motorola Razr is the most affordable foldable phone in North America. The problem is it's not cheap enough.
The Motorola Razr 2023 sounds like a great idea, at least if you hear it in passing, like an elevator pitch: a foldable phone that compromises on some hardware components to reach an affordable price point that, in the North American market, is considered mid-range. And that's exactly what Motorola has achieved here: the Razr 2023 is going on sale today at $599, in what is supposed to be a "limited time $100 off offer."

Best cases for the Motorola Razr+ in 2023
The Motorola Razr+ is a clamshell foldable with a massive cover screen that you'll want to protect with a case
Foldable phones, such as the newest Motorola Razr+, come with their own unique durability benefits and drawbacks. The obvious benefit to daily driving a great foldable phone is that the smartphone's main screen is protected from damage when you're not using it. However, that same feature can also be a drawback, as foldable displays are generally weaker than traditional ones. Plus, the folding mechanisms and hinge make the phone easier to break due to the extra moving parts. All that isn't to say that you shouldn't buy a foldable phone, but rather to say that it's imperative you choose the right case to keep it in good working order for the long haul.
