Device Overview
The Motorola Rizr 2.0 brings science fiction to life. It is a fully functional 6.9-inch smartphone that can literally bend backwards to wrap around your wrist, functioning as an ultra-smartwatch when you are on the go.
Common Questions
Wait, it actually bends around your wrist?
Yes! The back of the phone features an articulated, multi-link spine mechanism similar to a premium watch band, combined with an ultra-flexible pOLED screen. You can physically bend the entire smartphone backwards to snap it onto a magnetic wristband accessory.
Is it comfortable to wear as a watch?
It is surprisingly ergonomic. While it is larger than a standard smartwatch, the soft 'Woven Fabric' backing and the precise curvature of the articulated spine make it sit comfortably on your wrist for running, hiking, or hands-free navigation.
What happens to the UI when it is on your wrist?
Android 18 and Hello UI instantly detect the flex angle. When wrapped around your wrist, the UI shifts into 'Wearable Mode', displaying a massive, beautiful watch face on the top curve, while notifications and quick fitness toggles cascade down the sides of your wrist.
Is the screen easily damaged when exposed on the wrist?
The flexible pOLED is covered by a new self-healing polymer layer that can absorb impacts and slowly repair minor scratches. However, it is inherently more fragile than rigid glass, so Motorola includes a protective 'Bumper Band' in the box.
Can I take photos while it's on my wrist?
Yes! The 50MP main camera and 13MP ultrawide are positioned at the top of the device. When you raise your wrist, the cameras point outward, allowing you to easily scan QR codes, take POV videos, or snap photos without taking the phone off.
Is the battery large enough for a smartphone?
Due to the flexible mechanism, the battery is split into multiple smaller cells along the spine, totaling 4000 mAh. It provides all-day battery life for standard use, and the 68W fast charger tops it up very quickly.
What processor powers it?
It uses the Snapdragon 8s Gen 7. This is a highly efficient, flagship-tier chip that offers massive performance for full smartphone tasks but sips power when the device is in its lower-power 'Wearable Mode'.
Can I use it as a normal phone?
Absolutely. When you unbend it, a mechanical lock snaps the spine rigidly straight. It functions exactly like a stunning, ultra-tall 6.9-inch flagship Android smartphone for watching movies, typing, and browsing.
Is it water-resistant?
Engineering a bending spine to be waterproof is incredibly difficult, but Motorola achieved an IP65 rating. This means it is highly protected against dust and can easily survive rain, sweat, and splashes, though you shouldn't swim with it.
Does it have a speakerphone?
Yes, it features loud stereo speakers. When worn on the wrist, you can easily take hands-free calls, and the dual noise-canceling microphones ensure the other person hears you perfectly, even if you are jogging outdoors.
