I’ve been saying this a lot lately: Foldables are destined to play a key role in the future of mobile devices. Humans have been folding things for a long time. Folding is one of our best innovations, because it’s an incredibly practical way to optimize space. We fold papers to slip them into our pockets. We fold clothes to put them in our suitcases. We fold reading material in half and call them books. As technology advances, it only makes sense that we’re going to start to fold these devices that have become so central to our lives to get larger screens and more viewability out of these little slabs we carry with us wherever we go.
The Moto Razr is a remarkable accomplishment of engineering that gives us an impressive glimpse of the future. When opened, the Razr is roughly the size of the
Samsung Galaxy Note , but it folds into a little package that sits neatly into the palm of your hand. It’s mesmerizing to fold and unfold the screen when you first get ahold of this device. You can’t help but admire what Motorola has pulled off. And if you like living in the future, this device is for you. But you’re going to have to be more careful with it than the phone you use today and you’re going to have to be comfortable trading some high-end smartphone features for that foldability.
