The tech world has descended upon Barcelona for Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2026, and while the tapas might be excellent, the real buzz is coming from the booths. It is a big year for brands like Motorola. Once the undisputed kings of the “flip,” Motorola is officially branching out into the “book” world, and we like what we’ve seen so far.
The Big One: Motorola Razr Fold
For years, the Razr name has been synonymous with the compact flip. But at MWC 2026, the motorola razr fold has made its debut, and it is a statement piece. This is Motorola’s first foray into the book-style foldable market, and they aren’t playing it safe.
The device is strikingly slim, featuring a 6.6-inch external display that is actually functional enough to use without ever opening the phone. However, when you do unfold it, you are met with a massive 8.1-inch 2K LTPO display. To put that in perspective, that is essentially a tablet that fits in your pocket.
What makes this particularly interesting for the productivity crowd is the integration of the moto pen ultra. Whether you are sketching out a new logo or signing PDFs on the fly, the expansive screen real estate makes it feel like a genuine workstation rather than just a very expensive toy.
Sound Advice: Moto Buds 2 and Buds 2 Plus
Motorola is also doubling down on its ecosystem with two new pairs of earbuds: the moto buds 2 and the moto buds 2 plus.
The “Plus” model is the clear standout here, thanks to a collaboration with Bose. Featuring 11mm dynamic drivers and Dynamic Active Noise Cancellation, these are designed for people who want to disappear into their music. They also boast “CrystalTalk AI,” which is a fancy way of saying your mum will actually be able to hear you when you call her from a windy train station.
The battery life is equally impressive, offering up to 40 hours of total playtime with the case. If you prefer something for the daily commute, the standard moto buds 2 still pack a punch with dual-drivers and a staggering 48 hours of total battery life.
The Marathon Runner: Motorola Edge 70 Fusion
While foldables get the headlines, the motorola edge 70 fusion might be the most practical device announced this week. In an era where we are all tethered to power banks, Motorola has crammed a 7000mAh battery into this handset.
The brand claims this will provide up to 50 hours of use. That is two full days of streaming, scrolling, and snapping photos without breaking a sweat. Speaking of photos, it sports a 50MP Sony LYTIA™ 710 sensor enhanced by “moto ai,” ensuring your low-light shots don’t look like they were taken with a toaster.
The design is also a departure from the cold glass and metal we are used to. It features a quad-curved body with a soft-touch, fabric-like finish. It feels more like a fashion accessory than a piece of hardware, which is a refreshing change of pace in a very crowded market.
When Can You Get Your Hands on Them?
While the global reveal has sent shockwaves through MWC, Australians will have to wait just a little longer for local pricing and exact release dates. However, with the motorola signature and moto watch also on the horizon, the Motorola ecosystem is looking more complete than ever.
