The phone is a reboot of the famous 2005 Motorola Razr that became an iconic mobile for its thin design in a world of chunky flip phones. The new model with its vertical folding screen was released in black back in February and is available in the UK exclusively on EE for £1,499 – the same price the new gold version also sells for.

Weirdly, even if you buy the phone from Motorola it is locked to EE. The phone doesn’t have a physical SIM slot and relies on eSIM technology.

The Razr, which we have only had hands-on with and that Motorola seemingly refused to give out to all UK press for full reviews, was slated by many American reviewers for its poor build quality. Foldable phones are fragile by their very nature, but the Razr had  poor specs and a screen that broke.
