  • Motorola's upcoming Razr Flex 2027 has appeared on its Australian support website, hinting at a launch next year.
  • The Razr Flex could be Motorola's first wide foldable smartphone, designed to compete with Apple's iPhone Duo.
  • Leaks suggest a 6.9-inch inner display, Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, 12GB of RAM, and a 5,000mAh battery.

Motorola has seemingly confirmed that it's working on a new wide foldable smartphone for 2027, which could take on Apple's iPhone Duo.

Apple's iPhone Duo seems to be the talk of the town right now, with several smartphone brands looking to jump on the wide foldable bandwagon. Samsung has already launched the Galaxy Z Fold 8, while Oppo is also rumored to be working on something similar. And now, it looks like Motorola is preparing to join the competition with its own wide foldable called the Razr Flex.

As spotted by Android Authority, Motorola has listed the upcoming Razr Flex 2027 on its Australian support website. The device appears alongside other Razr smartphones in the company's security update section, suggesting that Motorola is indeed working on a new smartphone under the Razr Flex branding.

Interestingly, the listing also includes 2027 in the device's name, which strongly suggests Motorola plans to launch the Razr Flex next year.

That said, apart from the name, Motorola's support website doesn't reveal much about the upcoming phone. There are no official images, specifications, or other details about what the Razr Flex will actually look like.

However, previous leaks have already given us a pretty good idea of what to expect. The Razr Flex will reportedly feature a relatively small 4.9-inch cover display alongside a larger 6.9-inch OLED inner screen with up to a 165Hz refresh rate.

Under the hood, the phone could be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, paired with 12GB of RAM and a 5,000mAh battery. Similar to the iPhone Duo, Motorola is also expected to offer a dual-camera setup on the back.

For now, Motorola hasn't officially revealed the Razr Flex or even confirmed if the phone is coming or not. But with the phone already appearing on the company's support website, we should hopefully learn more about its plans in the coming months.
