    HamGuy, 24 May 2024Hopefully it will be better than the unsupported Moto razr,... moreDon't hold your breath. Honor is worse when it comes to updates.

      Hopefully it will be better than the unsupported Moto razr, which has, since January 24, not been able to support use of Google Assistant without opening the phone, that is outrageous for such a key use case. That, despite the fact that Moto still advertises that function on their website. I wonder if they'll fix that before #razr50 comes out.

        Waiting the moment they release phone with both screens on both sides equal.

          Big battery, fast but doesn't matter what's made of CPU, 16gig + 256 gig basic, dual sim, 5g and above avg camera.

            Awful camera module. RAZR 40 Ultra still lead the Flip design, as expected.

              I know tech enthusiasts are likely more interested in book folds, but right now the Z Flip is the closest thing we have to a mainstream foldable. I think it will remain that way until the prices of book folds drop.

                Not that many people want to buy a device they have to replace every two years. Or every year, if you get unlucky.

                  I hope it will have decent software support.

                  Third telephoto camera would be nice also.

                    That actually looks pretty cool!

                      Besides being more expensive to make, buy and generally more annoying to handle, I think their gonna be in their own market, for the big shots and whales with enought money to buy and manage them or those willing to give that much money for a showoff-ish phone. Plus they don't really appeal to everyone.
                      Perhaps some midrange foldable and flip phones may appear but "midrange" for one of those may still be deemed expensive, since they have to be made of "some" higher quallity material if the buyers will want the phone to last

                        will flip phones ever become widely popular or stay as a small market? From what i think, foldable phones will be the main flagships in future and flip phones will be for people who like smaller phones.

Dude it's basically nearly impossible these days to find a smartphone with a single, main camera. Besides, an ultrawide or telephoto shooter helps significantly.

                              I don't like a circular camera island if it carry more than one camera. Looks cheap. I know it's a trend, but it's a bad one, IMO.

                                The cover display covers the whole front panel.
