Lenovo has just unveiled Moto Razr 2019 edition at a high price of $1500. It's a foldable phone as well as a Flip phone, so naturally that high price is expected. Other foldables from Huawei ( Mate X 5G ) and Samsung ( Notorious Galaxy Fold ) are also very expensive devices.  Both Samsung and Huawei had their foldable phones to ship with high-end, flagship specs while Moto Razr 2019 only has specs of a mid-range smartphone. It is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 processor which are now often seen on devices priced Rs 10,000 in India.  So is it worth $1500 ?

Motorola has launched Razr 2019 - a foldable Android phone resembling the old classic Moto Razr phones. Other foldable phones announced are Samsung Galaxy Fold and Huawei Mate X.  Moto Razr 2019 looks and feels different from the rest of the foldable phones we have seen until now.  There is one thing all Foldable phones launched or announced in 2019 have in common - It's expensive. Moto Razr 2019 is priced at $1500.  The internal specs of the phone is of a mid-range Android smartphone priced around $250. There is no Snapdragon 855 flagship processor on board, instead has a mid-range Snapdragon 710. It comes with a small battery as well - just 2510mAh . That's unheard of in an Android smartphone in 2019. Moto Razr is expected to launch in India in 2020 January on Flipkart / Amazon.in. Don't expect it to be cheap.
