newly leaked images of the motorola 2019 RAZR offer what could be a first look at the reinvented model. motorola is unveiling its highly-anticipated foldable smartphone that’s said to be a revamp of the company’s iconic RAZR flip-phone on november 13.

the images were shared by noted leaker evan blass on his private twitter account, providing a somewhat clear look — at least the clearest one yet. the forthcoming foldable looks set to honor the original with RAZR lines, including a ‘chin’ that looks like it could house a fingerprint sensor.

the images also give a glimpse at the ‘closed’ phone which features a second screen displaying notifications. there are also screengrabs showing the front screen doubling up as a viewfinder.

the images don’t give a full look at the device unfolded, just a small part of the screen’s reflection over what was previously the keypad. it also looks as though there is a pair of front-facing cameras.

according to rumors the phone is expected to have mid-range specs from 4-6 GB of ram and a snapdragon 710 processor. it’s also suggested that the new RAZR will have a 6.2-inch OLED screen when unfolded, and a smaller display on the exterior, as seen in the images.

a wall street journal report from earlier this year suggested that the device could cost as much as $1,500. full details should be released november 13th, which is when motorola is set to unveil the 2019 motorola RAZR.
