Ultra screens for the “regular” Razr 50
We’re talking about a small and naturally very limited 1.5-inch cover display, which was a flaw that Motorola reportedly plans to “fix” this year by expanding the secondary screen real estate to a whopping 3.6 (or 3.63) inches.
For the time being, the Razr 50, aka Razr (2024), is only “confirmed” to come in two color options (some sort of dark green and a swanky gold hue), but if history is any indication, a number of other flavors are likely in the pipeline as well.
New processor, new camera, more storage, same price?
The mysterious new Dimensity processor is likely to be paired with the same 8GB RAM count as last year’s Razr 40, but the storage space could jump from 128 to 256 gigs on the entry-level Razr 50 configuration.
With no big changes expected in the weight and dimensions departments, it’s obviously not surprising to hear that the already impressive 4,200mAh battery capacity will probably go unchanged. Curiously enough, there are no words on charging speeds yet, while the dual rear-facing camera system is tipped to switch from 64 and 13MP sensors to 50 and 13MP snappers.
That oddly sounds like a bit of a downgrade, but of course, megapixel counts are not always representative of a camera’s real-life performance, so we’re fairly certain that the Razr 50 will improve on its predecessor in that field too.
Finally, while the pricing aspect remains a big question mark, that persistent rumor calling for the upgraded Razr 50 Ultra to cost just as much as the Razr 40 Ultra makes us optimistic that something similar will apply to the Razr 50. If we’re right, the non-Ultra Motorola Razr (2024) could start as low as $700 in the US with 256GB storage, which would be a pretty mind-blowing value proposition.
