the Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G is arguably the most anticipated new foldable device to hit the market this year, but before Samsung is finally starting to ship its latest crown jewel, Motorola will also unveil its modern second generation Razr in an attempt to distract from the Galaxy Z Flip 5G.
Razr 5G or Razr 2 5G? What about both?
Because it would certainly be … unwise of Motorola to announce the phone next month and then Keeping potential buyers waiting for a full calendar quarter (or more), we can only assume that all of this delay gossip was just that – baseless gossip. Unless there are actually two different 5G-capable Motorola Razr variants in the pipeline.
This theory seems to be supported by
a recent tweet from Evan Blass, which suggests that anything around the corner will be dubbed the Motorola Razr 5G rather than the Razr 2 5G. Meanwhile, the battery capacity of a device with model number XT2071 has been revealed, and we honestly don’t know exactly where this particular puzzle piece falls.
In case you were wondering, Last year’s rebirth Razr wore model number XT2000, so this is certainly a sequel … of a kind. This is also made clear by the presence of two batteries with a nominal capacity of 1180 and 1453 mAh respectively. That works out to a total of 2,633mAh, but typical cellular capacity, which is what smartphone makers always use in their marketing materials, will likely exceed 2,800mAh.
This largely coincides with the battery size of 2,845mAh Rumor had it back in May for the then unknown Motorola Razr (Gen 2) aka XT2071-4.
A clear step forward, but there is still a long way to go
While vastly superior to the combined 2,510mAh cellular capacity of the first-generation Razr foldable smartphone, that just doesn’t sound enough to give Samsung a run for its money. Certainly not if the Razr 2 5G is ready to play sports a main display with a diagonal of 6.85 inches, up from the 6.2 inch screen of its predecessor and the 6.7 inch Galaxy Z Flip 5G, which packs a considerably larger total typical battery capacity of 3300mAh.
This brings us back to a two-model upgrade theory, with an iterative Motorola Razr 5G update set to be released in September and a suitable sequel to Razr 2 5G with a large screen and other significant improvements that could see the light of day at some point next year. .
If this wild assumption turns out, it would certainly be easier to accept. a handset with a top mid-range Snapdragon 765 processor in tow, as well as a single 48MP rear-facing camera. Granted, it would still be difficult to recommend the Razr 5G over the Snapdragon 865 Plus-powered Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G, but at least we would have something to look forward to in terms of seriousness. Motorola foldable upgrades.
Who knows, maybe the company has learned its lesson as well and the 5G compatible Razr will be billed according to its specs, rumored to include 8GB of memory, 256GB of internal storage, only one 20MP selfie shooter and 18W fast charging technology also.
