The foldable phone market just took a big turn. At CES 2026, Motorola stepped beyond its familiar flip-phone roots and introduced something entirely new: the Motorola Razr Fold. It’s the brand’s first book-style foldable, designed to open like a tablet while still feeling like a regular smartphone when closed.


The Razr Fold combines a slim, refined design with large displays, powerful cameras, and smart AI features built for work and everyday life. Closed, it’s comfortable and familiar. Open, it becomes a wide, immersive screen that’s ready for multitasking, creativity, and (of course) entertainment.


But that level of sophistication comes with an important question. When you’re carrying a device expected to cost around $1,500, how do you protect it without covering up the very design that makes it special?


You see, choosing the right Motorola Razr fold case isn’t just about protection - it’s about preserving the phone’s balance, feel, and folding experience. This is where a minimalist approach becomes essential.

🔑 Key Takeaways

The Motorola Razr Fold is Motorola’s first book-style foldable.

It features a 6.6-inch external display and an 8.1-inch internal 2K LTPO screen.

Its triple 50MP camera system delivers versatile, high-quality photos.

The Thinborne Motorola Razr Fold case is ultra-thin at 0.04 inches.

The Thinborne case supports MagSafe and wireless charging.

Motorola news has revealed the Motorola Razr Fold as its first book-style foldable design, placing it alongside devices like the Galaxy Z Fold and Pixel Fold (while still maintaining the company’s design language).


When closed, the Razr Fold feels familiar, thanks to its 6.6-inch external display. Open it up, and the device unfolds into a stunning 8.1-inch 2K LTPO internal display.


Key highlights include:

  • Slim, well-balanced foldable design

  • Flexible layouts and adaptive interfaces optimized for productivity

  • Moto Pen Ultra stylus support for note-taking, sketching, and creative work

  • On-device AI features like Catch Me Up and Next Move to keep users organized

Photography is another strong focus. As reported on Wired, the Razr Fold features a triple 50MP camera system, including a main lens, ultrawide/macro, and a 3x periscope telephoto camera. A 32MP external selfie camera makes it easy to capture photos and video with the device closed, while a 20MP internal camera supports video calls and content creation when unfolded.


Powered by a Sony LYTI sensor, the camera system supports Dolby Vision recording and advanced stabilization for cinematic-quality results.


Motorola has not yet announced official pricing, but the Razr Fold is positioned as an ultra-premium flagship and is expected to launch later this year.

Precision Fit and Function

Foldables demand accuracy. Thinborne’s case is engineered with exact cutouts and precise hinge clearance, so you get smooth folding, effortless access to buttons, and a snug fit that feels custom-made. Every curve and edge is designed to complement the Razr Fold rather than interfere with it.

MagSafe and Wireless Charging

Despite its slim build, the case is MagSafe-ready and fully supports wireless charging. You can attach wallets, mounts, or chargers without removing the case - that’s convenience in one minimalist design.

Added Carbon Fiber for Extra Grips

To improve handling, Thinborne integrates a subtle carbon fiber finish into its design. It adds grip without feeling sticky, making the phone easier to hold.

💡 Did You Know? MagSafe technology uses built-in magnets to improve alignment, charging efficiency, and accessory attachment - making everyday use faster and more reliable.

Conclusion

The Motorola Razr Fold represents a major step forward for Motorola - combining a slim, elegant design with powerful displays, advanced cameras, and AI-driven productivity. Protecting a device like this requires thoughtful planning.
