| Motorola Razr 60 |
The rumor mill is officially heating up for Motorola fans. Just as the tech world begins to shake off the spring dust, the standard model of the next-generation foldable, the Motorola Razr 70, has made an early appearance on China’s TENAA certification website. This listing gives us our most detailed look yet at the hardware, confirming that Motorola is preparing to bring some serious upgrades to its most iconic lineup.
The device, bearing the model number XT2657-2, is expected to debut alongside its more powerful sibling, the Motorola Razr 70 Ultra, in the coming weeks. Here is everything we have learned from the certification leak.
A Familiar Fold with a Brighter Outlook
According to the TENAA filing, the Razr 70 stays true to the clamshell design language that made the brand famous, but it polishes the experience with premium display technology. The main screen is a sizable 6.9-inch OLED panel boasting a crisp resolution of 1080 x 2640 pixels. Whether you are streaming media or scrolling through social media, this inner display promises vibrant colors and deep blacks.
However, the real star of the show might be the external experience. The Razr 70 is listed with a 3.63-inch OLED cover display that features a unique resolution of 1056 x 1066 pixels. This is a significant real estate upgrade for the outer screen, moving beyond simple notifications to potentially allow for full app interactions, quick replies, and advanced camera controls without needing to flip the phone open.
Under the Hood: Power and Performance
While the TENAA listing is notoriously coy about specific branding, it confirms the presence of an octa-core processor clocked at 2.75GHz. While we await confirmation on whether this is the latest Snapdragon or a MediaTek Dimensity chip, the clock speed suggests a solid mid-to-high-range performer that can handle daily tasks and multitasking with ease.
Speaking of multitasking, Motorola seems to be preparing for heavy users. The listing reveals that the Razr 70 will be available in generous memory configurations. Buyers can likely expect models featuring up to a whopping 18GB of RAM, paired with internal storage that scales all the way to 1TB. This level of memory is becoming increasingly common in the flagship space, ensuring that the device remains future-proof for years to come.
Camera Capabilities: A Dual 50MP Focus
Motorola appears to be refining its photography game with the Razr 70. The rear of the device will house a dual-camera system, and the headline feature here is consistency: both sensors are 50MP shooters.
While one lens will handle standard wide-angle shots, the listing hints at a versatile twist for the second sensor. It is expected to function as a telephoto camera, with the certification data pointing to support for 3x optical zoom. This would be a welcome addition for a foldable in this category, allowing users to get closer to the action without sacrificing image quality. For selfie enthusiasts and video conferencing, the internal foldable display houses a 32MP front-facing camera.
Design, Battery, and Biometrics
The Razr 70 is shaping up to be impressively portable. The TENAA listing measures the device at just 7.2mm thick (when unfolded, presumably) and a lightweight 188 grams. This would make it one of the slimmer and lighter foldable options on the market, easily slipping into a pocket.
Security is handled by a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, integrated likely into the power button for easy access. Powering the device is a dual-battery system—a common setup in foldables to manage space—with a combined typical capacity of around 4,500mAh. This should provide enough endurance to get through a full day of mixed usage on a single charge.
The Source and The Road Ahead
As always, TENAA listings are the final pit stop before a phone hits the Chinese market, meaning these specs are the real deal. The details were first brought to widespread attention by reliable leaker ZionsAnvin on X (formerly Twitter).
Launch Timeline
Motorola has remained silent on the official unveiling, but the timing of this certification is a massive hint. Historically, Motorola has used the spring season to refresh the Razr line. The previous generation, the Razr 60 series, was introduced in April of last year.
With the TENAA certification now public, the administrative hurdles in China are cleared. It is highly likely that we will see the official launch of the Motorola Razr 70 and Razr 70 Ultra within a similar timeframe, potentially making an appearance in the next few weeks.
For now, the Razr 70 looks like a balanced and compelling entry in the mid-range foldable market, offering large coverscreen functionality, high-res cameras, and a lightweight design.
