New Motorola Razr 50s is launching on SoftBank this Friday

Japanese carrier SoftBank quietly unveiled a new Motorola flip foldable, the Moto Razr 50s. However, this appears to be just a local variant of the regular Razr 50 that has been around since June. The launch in Japan is set for September 27 (this Friday).

The phone has a 6.9” inner display (1,080 x 2,640px) and a 3.6” cover display (a nearly square 1,056 x 1,066px), both OLED panels. The device is rated IPX8 for water resistance.
