Motorola Razr 50 Ultra has just launched in India at a price of ₹99,999. Of course, there are bank offers which you can apply to bring the price down to ₹89,999. But the good news is that Motorola is going to continue the sales of the Motorola Razr 40 series that was launched in June 2023. In an interaction with HT Tech, Motorola Asia Pacific marketing head Shivam Ranjan confirmed, “Yes, the Motorola Razr 40 (series) stays. Of course it is at a lower price point now as it is 1 year old, so we'll continue to sell it for consumers who want to still experience the Razr 40 ultra.”
So, the next important question- will the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra, which is selling for a far lesser price than Motorola Razr 50 Ultra, get AI features as a software update? Ranjan said, “That is something that we are still working on. I don't have an answer for you today, but that is definitely something that we're evaluating and we'll come back to you once we have an answer.”
The answer is AI or specifically Moto AI. “The Motorola RAZR 50 Ultra is the first flip phone in the world to have Google's Gemini AI assistant on the external display, as well as internal display,” said Ranjan. Not to forget, Motorola is offering Google One premium subscription free for the first three months after which it's up to users to decide whether they want to pay for Gemini or not.
“Motorola Razr 50 Ultra is coming with a tagline of intelligence inside and out and the key reason is that it's not just when you open the phone that you're able to access the AI or the power of Gemini AI, you're able to access the power of Gemini AI right on top on the external display where you can voice activate it. You can long press the power button to activate it, but you get the full power of Gemini AI right from the external display,” he explained.
But that's not all. There's Moto AI as well.
“When I talk about Moto AI, it is an AI that is developed by Motorola in-house. We believe that we should definitely have our own
