If you’re a Verizon Wireless customer, then there’s a carrier-exclusive phone expected to be showcased at MWC 2024 in the form of what’s codenamed the Motorola “Glory,” a foldable follow-up to the Razr 40 Plus/40 Ultra. MSPowerUser broke the news of the upcoming handset in January, complete with an exclusive render of what it will look like.
This is a continuation of the renewal of the Razr line with foldable phones, as it had previously been the name of Motorola’s flagship flip phones before the smartphone boom and Lenovo’s acquisition of the Motorola Mobility smartphone brand. The MSPowerUser report also added that improved performance and battery life should be expected from the Glory thanks to Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon SoC processor.
In its current incarnation under Lenovo, Motorola Mobility is probably best known for its budget and mid-priced phones — like the Moto E and Moto G lines — more so than its flagships. Despite the phones generally being strong performers for their price categories, particularly when it comes to battery life, they don’t always come recommended due to Motorola’s poor history of keeping its devices updated.
At least for Motorola’s flagships, that’s improved as of 2023, with three years of major Android version updates and four years of security patches released every other month.
