Motorola's Razr 70 Swarovski Edition Shines at IFA

Glitter, meet foldable. Motorola has quietly confirmed a collaboration with Swarovski that trades the usual tech gloss for actual crystal shine, teasing a Swarovski-branded Razr just ahead of IFA in early September.

The short teaser shows the rear of a Razr-style device and leaves little to the imagination: a black back cover textured in a diamond pattern and studded with crystals around the hinge and near the external screen. It’s a subtler spin compared with last year’s Razr 60 Swarovski Edition — less flamboyant, more deliberately luxe — the kind of design that whispers rather than shouts.

Under the sparkle, expect the hardware fans already know. The Swarovski version appears to be based on the Razr 70 (marketed in some regions as the Razr 2026), so look for a 6.9" OLED main display and a 3.63" outer panel, a battery in the 4,500–4,800 mAh range, and camera hardware matching the standard model.

• 6.9" inner OLED / 3.63" external screen
• Dual 50 MP rear sensors / 32 MP front camera
• MediaTek Dimensity 7450X chipset
• Up to 512 GB storage
• Charging: 30W wired, 15W wireless
• Battery: ~4,500–4,800 mAh

This is primarily a cosmetic edition — the sparkle is the feature. Beyond the crystals themselves, leaks hint at extra embellishments below the external display and around the hinge, and there’s talk of special packaging or a transparent case that shows off the stones. Motorola hasn’t set a price or exact release date yet; those answers are expected when the phone debuts at IFA 2026 in Berlin.

It’s another chapter in Motorola’s effort to treat foldables as fashion as much as hardware. Collaborations like this one aim at buyers who want a device that performs and makes a style statement. Will the Swarovski Razr find a niche between haute couture and everyday tech? We’ll get the full story in a matter of weeks, and it may say as much about how we wear our gadgets as it does about what they can do.
