The iconic Moto Razr phone is set to make a comeback as Lenovo Group
Inc. has collaborated with American telecommunications giant Verizon
Communications Inc. to begin selling the new Razr devices in the US, The
Wall Street Journal has reported.
The phone would begin selling
in the US as soon as February. However, the device is still being tested
and the timing of its unveiling could change.
"The once-popular
flip phone is being revived as a smartphone with a foldable screen and a
starting price of roughly $1,500, according to people familiar with the
matter," the report added late on Wednesday.
It is not known whether the device would be launched in India.
The
original Moto Razr was a thin flip phone and a status symbol for many
before the advent of iPhones and Android flagships. The Motorola Razr V3
was the first phone released in the Razr series and was introduced in
2004.
Motorola has been trying to resurrect the Razr brand since quite some time.
In
2011 and 2012, Motorola had teamed up with Verizon for a series of
"Droid RAZR" devices, which tried to cash in on the goodwill of Razr
devices, albeit without any of the flip phone design that was part of
the original charm, according to The Verge.
