The 5 coolest features of Motorola's new $1,500 Razr phone - INSIDER

It's 2019, and the flip phone is making a comeback.

Motorola is reviving its iconic Razr flip phone from the early 2000s with a very modern day twist. Yes, it's still a flip phone like you probably remember. But the new version trades out the original Razr's sleek keypad and tiny screen for a high-resolution touch screen that stretches across the entire device and folds in half. 

It's available for preorder on December 26 through Verizon for $1,500, and is launching in January.

Motorola is the latest smartphone maker to announce a foldable smartphone, following the likes of Samsung and Huawei. However, Motorola's approach to the foldable phone is entirely different than its rivals. Samsung and Huawei are using foldable display technology to expand the size of the phone's screen so that it can function as a tablet when opened and a phone when closed.

But Motorola is instead implementing a more vintage design that brings us back to the flip phone era. It's not trying to give you two devices in one — rather, it's trying to make your smartphone more compact at a time when users crave increasingly larger screens.

The Razr has a 6.2-inch screen, which is around the same size as the iPhone 11's display, and a small 2.7-inch screen on the front for viewing notifications. There's a fingerprint sensor embedded in the thicker portion of the phone near the bottom, and a 16-megapixel main camera. You'll get 128 GB of storage space, and the phone is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 710 processor and includes 6 GB of RAM. 

But none of those features are necessarily what sets Motorola's new Razr apart from other smartphones, including its other foldable rivals. Here's a look at the Razr's standout features.
