Motorola Razr Fold price leak could mean trouble for Galaxy Z Fold

Motorola plans to take on Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold lineup later this year with its first book-style Razr foldable. While the specs of the device are not yet known, it appears Motorola will undercut the competition to ensure the Razr Fold stands out. However, an accompanying rumor that the foldable might not have as wide a presence in the US market as other foldables has been dismissed by a key player.

Leaker Evan Blass claims that the Motorola Razr Fold will supposedly cost $1,500 in the US. If accurate, this aggressive pricing would give the phone a big price advantage over Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold lineup, which starts from $2,000. Even Google’s Pixel 10 Pro Fold officially retails for $1,799, so Moto’s book-style foldable could be $300 cheaper than it.

The lower price may mean that Motorola cuts corners on the internal hardware, skipping Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset in favor of a lower-end variant. Most premium Qualcomm chips are more than powerful enough for daily use, so a non-flagship SoC inside the Razr Fold should not be a cause for concern.

Thankfully, if a leaked internal slide from yesterday is anything to go by, the company does not intend to compromise on the camera setup to keep costs in check.

The future of Moto phones at AT&T stores

While not as widely talked about as Samsung or iPhones, Motorola is still a top seller in the US. You can walk into an AT&T or Verizon store and easily pick up the latest Moto phone.

While leaker Evan Blass claimed that may change in 2026, with AT&T reportedly considering removing all Moto phones from its stores, AT&T contacted Android Police to put the rumor to rest. Customers who are looking to put the Razr Fold up against the Galaxy Z Fold will still be able to do so with a visit to the carrier’s stores.
