Motorola confirmed today that its much-hyped folding Razr is going to come in a second color: blush gold. The option will be available this spring. Motorola hasn’t said how much the gold version will cost, but it’s unlikely to tack on an added premium over the black option.
We think the gold model will feature the same specs as the standard “Noir Black” Razr, which includes a midrange Snapdragon 710 processor. The phone’s 6.2-inch foldable plastic OLED panel is prone to developing “bumps and lumps,” Motorola has said. The company has pushed back against concerns about its long-term durability, however.
Initial reviews of the Razr have skewed negative, with screen issues and poor camera performance raised by Android Central and others. Perhaps Motorola is announcing a new color to offset that bad press a bit. We hope to have a review shortly.
