After teasing the Razr Fold at CES 2026 and announcing the handset at MWC 2026, Motorola has been teasing prospective buyers without a definitive launch date. However, those who’ve been waiting faithfully can finally breathe, as the Razr Fold has got a real launch date (but there’s a catch).
How much does the Razr Fold cost?
Motorola is now accepting pre-orders for the Razr Fold in the United Kingdom and Europe, with shipments confirmed for May 6, 2026, making a definitive launch date for the market. For the regions, the phone’s launch price is £1,799.99 (roughly $2,436) for the only variant with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.
To lure in early adopters, the brand is also offering a free Moto Watch, Moto Buds Loop, and a £220 upfront discount. This reduces the effective price of the phone from £1,799.99 to £1,579.99 (about $2,138).
To me, the pricing seems a tad on the higher side, especially since Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 7, one of the best book-style foldables the market has ever seen, is available in the United Kingdom from £1,799 for the baseline variant with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.
What does the Razr Fold offer?
However, Motorola is offering quite a lot of freebies, making the deal look more attractive than it might be, especially for buyers who already have a smartwatch and TWS earbuds.
For the price, the Razr Fold offers an 8.1-inch inner foldable screen, a 6.6-inch cover screen, runs on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 (which isn’t Qualcomm’s top-tier chip), and features a 6,000 mAh battery that supports 80W wired fast charging.
The catch, however, is that Motorola has yet to announce an official pre-order or sales commencement date for interested buyers in the United States. Anyways, we can collectively eye the May 6 launch date, hoping that something is coming for the American buyers around the same time.
