Motorola Razr 40 Ultra

External screen design

The New Razr family, announced in June 2023, was the culmination of several months of hard work involving teams in Brazil, USA and China. Myself, heading the visual design of the external screen and, Jinny Kang, leading the UX part, worked to deliver a fluid and full experience, comparable to the one you'd find in the main display. That's because the 2023's Razr+ has the largest cover screen found in a foldable phone to this date. Apart from basic functionalities found on competitor phones, this Razr model can support your choice of apps with the flip closed and also use the tripod mode to make your content creation more easily. The biggest design challenge of this project was to create an interface that could coexist naturally with the two camera punch holes. Since a good amount of current apps have the navigation located at the bottom of the screen, this could create huge usability issues. Our plan was to transfer all information typically found on the status bar to the section close the camera holes and prevent apps from expanding. Even so, we provide the option of having the apps to run full screen if the users want that way.
