The book-style foldable smartphone market continues to grow ahead of the anticipated launch of the iPhone Fold or iPhone Ultra this year. So far, we have seen models from Oppo, Huawei, and Samsung, and soon a new Motorola device will also be on the market.

Many details about the Motorola Razr Fold were already known, but now the price and launch date in the US have also been announced...

Samsung has been the main player in the book-style foldable phone market so far, with the Galaxy Z Fold 7 being the latest model. The term "book-style" means that the folded device has a size similar to a traditional phone and then opens up to a (small) tablet-sized screen.

The upcoming launch of the Motorola Razr Fold was not a secret. Our sister site 9to5Google had the opportunity to test the device nearly two months ago. However, we did not have information about when it would be available for sale in the US and at what price. These details have now been revealed.

Pre-orders will open on May 14, and delivery will take place on May 21. The pricing has been set at $1,899, which places it between the Pixel 10 Pro Fold and the Galaxy Z Fold 7.

Ben Shoon uses Samsung's foldable as his daily driver but says the Razr Fold offers a good balance between its feature set and simplicity.

Motorola has created a quite clean yet feature-packed experience with the Razr Fold. It really provides a good balance.

Like on Google and Samsung devices, the Razr Fold fully utilizes Android's tablet/foldable optimizations on the inner screen. It offers a taskbar that is always visible (with button and gesture navigation) and allows for quick placement of apps in a multitasking split-screen.

Beyond that, you can use the "laptop mode" by positioning the foldable device at an angle; this turns the lower half of the folded screen into a trackpad and creates a cursor on the upper half. Samsung offers the same thing on its Galaxy foldables.

Indeed, Motorola's software seems to fit perfectly.

As expected, the iPhone Ultra is anticipated to be the most expensive model on the market, with a price of $2,000 or more.
