The interest in Motorola's foldable phone has increased after a January Wall Street Journal report announced that the phone could be launched on Verizon in February and would carry the iconic name of Razr as well as # 39, a potential sale price of $ 1,500.

The 91Mobiles website has since spotted patent applications filed by Motorola, perhaps illustrating the design of what could be the new Razr foldable phone, since it seems to be heavily influenced by the 2004 phone.
