After a three-week wait, the Motorola Razr 5G finally reaches the US coast. The foldable phone will be unlocked at a number of retailers starting October 2nd and will be sold on contract with AT&T and T-Mobile.
At AT&T, customers trading in a suitable device can purchase a Razr 5G for up to $ 700 minus the original price of $ 1,399 by porting their number onto the network. Existing customers get up to $ 400 off the Motorola Razr 5G for adding a line or $ 300 off by upgrading the device.
T-Mobile users receive the phone at “half the price with 24 monthly billing credit when you activate a new line and exchange an authorized device”. Just exchange it? You can save up to $ 400 off the original price of the Razr 5G.
If you are looking for an unlocked Motorola Razr 5G, the phone is available through Amazon, Best Buy, and B&H Photo alongside the Motorola Official Store. The phone retails for $ 1,199- $ 200 off the original introductory price.
Motorola is also facing tough competition in the US folding shell market. The Galaxy Z Flip 5G may set the pace for this particular form factor, but it’s ~ $ 100 more expensive than the Razr. The Z Flip arguably remains the better choice, but due to Motorola’s aggressive pricing, the Razr 5G should benefit some fans. The upgrades compared to the predecessor should also help the phone to make an impression.
Motorola’s second crack on a foldable phone keeps the clamshell form factor of the original, but updates it to include a Snapdragon 765G chipset, 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. At 2,800 mAh, the battery is also larger than its predecessor, while this time buyers also get access to 5G networks.
