The Motorola Razr Could Return as a $1,500 Foldable Smartphone (techcrunch.com)

The iconic Motorola RAZR might be making a comeback as a $1,500 foldable screen smartphone, and it could launch as early as February, according to a new report from The Wall Street Journal. From a report: The price point puts the handset north of even Apple and Samsung's flagships, at $1,500. Of course, there isn't really a standardized price point for the emerging foldables category yet. The Royole FlexPai starts at around $1,300 -- not cheap, especially for a product from a relative unknown. And Samsung, the next on the list to embrace the foldable, has never been afraid to hit a premium price point. Ultimately, $1,500 could well be standard for these sorts of products. Whether or not consumers are willing to pay that, however, is another question entirely.

NO cellphone is worth $1500!

Does it include Star Trek Beaming or Time Travel? No? Then it isn't worth its weight in gold!

There is a narrow window where a small but significant number of idiots will pay silly prices to have the first flexible phone.

Too bad they are already late to the party. Apple came out with a flexible phone in 2014.
