Motorola shows off its new wide foldable in swipe at Apple
Motorola briefly showed a wider Razr foldable in a video that appeared to take a swipe at Apple’s first folding phone.
- During Apple's event on Wednesday, Motorola posted a video showcasing its "Razr family," ending with a cheeky tease of an unannounced wide foldable phone that leaked last week.
- The unannounced wide foldable appears in a black finish with a horizontally oriented camera bar visible on the back, displayed for 12 frames before the video cuts to black.
- Previous leaks indicated the wider Motorola device would be available "in the coming months," though the company has not confirmed an exact launch date.
- Apple announced new products including the Pro, AirPods, Apple Watches, and the Duo, while Motorola noted the company is years late to the foldable market.
- With a squarer passport-style form factor, the new Duo resembles Samsung's latest non-Ultra Galaxy Z Fold 8, matching proportions of Motorola's upcoming wider Razr.
