Motorola Razr

The Motorola Razr is a iconic line of mobile phones that originally gained worldwide fame as a clamshell 'flip phone' in the early 2000s before being reimagined as a series of foldable-screen smartphones. The brand is deeply rooted in American telecommunications history, having been a pioneer in the development of mobile cellular technology in the United States.

Today, the manufacturing of Motorola smartphones is centered in China, where the parent company maintains extensive production facilities, though some regional assembly occasionally occurs in locations like India or Brazil for specific markets. The Razr remains the flagship of Motorola's foldable category, competing globally with other high-end flexible screen devices.

While the brand originated in the US, its ownership has transitioned twice: first being acquired by Google in 2012, and subsequently by the Chinese technology giant Lenovo in 2014. Under Lenovo's ownership, Motorola maintains its design headquarters in Chicago, Illinois, while leveraging Lenovo's global supply chain and manufacturing scale.
