Razr is back: Motorola brings back iconic flip phone

Motorola is bracing for the future by returning to the past. The company is adapting its historical flip-phone design for a smartphone with a foldable screen.
Samsung, Huawei and others have phones that fold like a book and offer a double-sized display when unfolded.
Motorola’s new Razr phone, on the other hand, will be smaller than a regular smartphone until unfolded to its full 6.2 inch size.
The idea is to make the phone more compact for carrying and storing when folded and not in use.
People have been upgrading smartphones less often as innovation slows down. The phone industry has been looking to foldable screens as a way to revive sales, though they are still niche products.
The phone will launch in the U.S. in January starting at $1,500.
