The flip phone is getting AI.
State of play: Motorola is introducing new models of its not-dead-even-though-you-could've-sworn-it-was Razr phones with AI capability.
The Razr — which is really a lineup of foldable smartphones at this point — will have AI features from Motorola itself, as well as Perplexity, Meta, Microsoft and Google.
The suggested retail price for the basic Razr is $699.99. The Razr Ultra is $1,299.99.
"Motorola's new flip phones include AI tools that can do things like analyze what's on a phone's screen to provide suggestions and summarize notifications," CNN reports.
💭 Nathan's thought bubble: I'm feeling nostalgic for the good ole days when the flip phone had no intelligence at all.
