Without a search engine, can you name the specific model of the “MOTOROLA RAZR” family?
According to the Wall Street Journal, this series, which was once famous in the rivers and lakes, is likely to make a comeback, and may bring a folding screen with the results of the recent technology tree in 2019. Of course, it may match the price of $1,500 or Will become the most expensive product in the series

There is no specific news about this phone, such as screen size, specifications, shape, etc. It can be said that it is ignorant. But since it is ready to restart the name RAZR, the thin and sharp design elements should still be reflected in normal circumstances. Just don’t know if Motorola, which has already belonged to Lenovo, will follow the original design, and there is not much clue as to how the folding screen should be integrated, such as adding a long vertical folding screen like a flip phone.
The Wall Street Journal report also said that Lenovo hopes to be able to manufacture more than 200,000 new RAZRs. Don’t feel that it is easy to achieve millions of sales, especially for the target price of $1,500. Ten thousand sales have expressed Lenovo’s confidence and optimism

It is reported that the new RAZR will remain the exclusive collaboration of Motorola’s old friend Verizon in the United States and plans to launch it in February. However, the specifications are unknown and the details have not yet been finalized. It is still unclear whether the new RAZR will be launched as scheduled and whether it can achieve satisfactory market performance
RAZR was a brilliant series.
New The face of RAZR is still hidden in the clouds, but the glory of the RAZR brand has long been engraved in history
At least for those born in the early 1990s, the Motorola RAZR series is likely to be part of their secondary school memories. Every time I talked about the Motorola V3 mobile phone, the first thing that came to mind in my mind was not its design. Instead, in the middle school age, a classmate took the V3 and used the flip to be used as an Allegro
This phone has finally won an amazing sales of 130 million worldwide. If you go over the top of the mobile phone model sales list, you can still find its name in the top ten

Since then, the RAZR family has grown stronger, and the Motorola L7, a straight-line ultra-thin mobile phone, has been introduced, the Motorola K1 with mirror effect, and the Motorola E6 with a touch screen and Linux. The MOTOROLA V8 endorsed by David Beckham has also been blowing for a while. The whirlwind, a representative of handsome and successful people

And the most recent restart of the RAZR series dates back to 2011 to 2012, when Motorola and the operator Verizon collaborated to launch a series of Dorid RAZR devices after successfully building several well-selling phones. Among them, Droid RAZR also has certain sales and popularity in China, including the latter RAZR MAXX, which has excellent design and large battery capacity at that time
Despite not recreating the classic clamshell design and myth of sales, this time the resurrection of RAZR is worthy of this brand
Re-enactment may become a new trend. The resurrection of
RAZR may also reflect another trend in recent years – replica mobile phones are gaining popularity. By reviving the previous classic phone models with new technology and time-appropriate designs, this is certainly something that everyone loves, but at the same time, it should be realized that the replica classic is not a blessing
For example, the Nokia 8110, which was a very successful banana machine last year, is a retro slider phone. Although it has added some new features, it is essentially a tribute to classic love products, interesting and Nostalgia and relatively low prices are the elements of its success. This is a product that successfully drives the public to pay for the sentiment
If you extend the range to more electronic devices, then we can also find that the good replica devices that are sold are almost all on the same route, such as Nintendo’s mini FC and mini SFC have sold hundreds of The same is true for the sales of Wantai, including the PS Classic that Sony introduced at the end of last year
And Motorola restarts RAZR. It’s obviously not the same route. It uses the latest technology such as folding screen. This is a new technology that has just passed the technical display and has no actual product launch. Although they are optimistic about the prospective market, it is difficult to have a clear expectation on a particular model. In addition, the high price will also become the biggest obstacle for the public to pay for the “sentimental feelings”. After all, the $1,500 has greatly exceeded the psychological price of the public
So it seems that the new RZAR is a tribute to the classic replica product, rather than a benchmark concept machine using the latest technology. On the one hand, we must praise its courage, on the other hand, we must be cautious about its prospects
