Motorola Razr 5G goes official

Motorola brings an updated version to last year’s Razr in select markets. The new Razr comes with 5G support which wasn’t the case with the first generation Motorola Razr. The new Motorola Razr is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 765G processor paired with 8GB RAM and 256GB of internal storage. There’s no expandable card slot. The design strategy of the new Razr is similar to the previous generation with few refinements in some areas.
