Motorola might be about to unleash the Razr 2022 on the international market. A famous leaker claims to have dug up renders for the new foldable Android device, some of which show an English-language UI for the first time. Therefore, the premium pOLED smartphone may indeed be ready for new markets soon.

Motorola's launch of the Edge 30 Ultra, or the global version of its super-premium Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1-toting X30 Pro, may have raised hopes that it would be followed along the same road by the Moto Razr 2022. With its high-refresh-rate pOLED main display, updated build and potentially improved rear cameras, it represents a potentially significant generational boost in specs for the latter.

Now, it might finally be on the way to markets such as Europe and India as official global units. Hints as to possibility have dropped in the form of a new thread from Evan Blass (or @evleaks on Twitter), showing a slew of Razr 2022 renders.

There is nothing strange or wonderful in that for the most part - then again, some of the new images suggest that the device's UI may not be Motorola's software for its China-only devices.

The design and esthetics in general are that of MyUI 4.0; however, it also shows a text messaging interface that might well be that of WhatsApp, as well as what might be a preview of how Messages would look on the device's enlarged cover screen.

Therefore, this new leak could be a glimpse of Android 12 for the international edition of the latest Motorola foldable flagship. On that note, we can only hope that the OEM keeps it up to date this time around should it truly replace the Razr 5G worldwide soon.
