Motorola shakes up foldable market, undercuts samsung
Forget everything you thought you knew about foldable phone pricing. Motorola is making a serious play for the US market, and it’s doing so by slashing prices on its Razr Plus (2025) to levels that are simply astonishing. While Samsung has long held the crown in the foldable space, the latest move from Motorola is forcing a serious reassessment of the landscape.
Woot deal makes razr plus a steal
The buzz isn't just about a new phone; it's about a stunningly good deal. Woot, the Amazon-owned retailer, is currently offering the unlocked Motorola Razr Plus (2025) for a mere $399.99. That’s a substantial drop from the listed MSRP of $999.99, and even lower than many retailers are currently offering with discounts. The price has been quietly creeping down in recent months, but this latest promotion takes it to a truly remarkable level.
Let's be clear: the Razr+ (2025) isn’t trying to be a Galaxy S26 competitor. It's not aiming for the top-tier performance of Samsung’s flagship devices. However, at this price, it’s difficult to argue against its value proposition. The inclusion of 12GB of RAM and Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor ensures a surprisingly smooth experience, defying the notion that this is a mid-range device.
Consider this: you get a 6.9-inch foldable LTPO AMOLED display (matching the specs of the Galaxy Z Flip 7) and a 4-inch cover screen, both boasting a silky-smooth 165Hz refresh rate, all for less than four hundred dollars. The titanium-reinforced hinge and IP48 water and dust resistance are welcome additions, solidifying the Razr Plus as a surprisingly robust device. And with a 4,000mAh battery and 45W wired/15W wireless charging, battery anxiety shouldn't be a constant companion.
The Hot Pink color option, while not to everyone’s taste, adds a splash of personality. But ultimately, the color is secondary to the sheer affordability. The value here is undeniable; it's a proposition that challenges the very definition of what a foldable phone should cost.
Woot's backing of this promotional period, complete with a full 1-year manufacturer warranty, further sweetens the deal. Don’t expect this to last; at this price, the Razr Plus (2025) is destined to disappear quickly. While Amazon itself is offering a discount, it pales in comparison – a mere $300 off compared to Woot’s staggering $600 reduction. The choice is clear: seize this opportunity while it lasts.
