Motorola could be the latest phone maker to jump on the wide foldable trend, with leaked sketches pointing to a new book-style device that looks designed to open into a broader, more tablet-like screen.
The sketches, spotted by Android Headlines, reportedly come from an anonymous wide foldables. There’s no word on its exact dimensions yet, but the overall shape is clear: a conventional-looking phone that unfolds horizontally into a wider display
There are a few interesting details in the drawings, too. The rear appears to feature a horizontal camera module with what looks like two lenses, alongside a flash or additional sensor. The layout resembles the camera bar used on some Pixel phones, and could also help prevent the phone from rocking when it’s placed on a flat surface.
Motorola also appears to be paying attention to how the phone feels when it’s being opened. The sides have rounded edges, giving users a more curved surface to grip, while the sketches refer to this design as the “Easy Open Profile.” It sounds like a small detail, but anything that makes a large foldable easier to open could be useful in everyday use.
Inside, there’s a punch-hole camera cutout, while the display is shown without an obvious crease. That last point is worth treating cautiously, though. A sketch can suggest a crease-free screen, but it won’t tell us how well Motorola has actually managed to hide the fold in a finished device.
Motorola’s potential move comes as wide foldables appear to be gaining momentum. Samsung has already entered the category with the Galaxy Z Fold 8, while Huawei has its Pura X Max, and Apple is also rumoured to be preparing an iPhone Ultra with a wider foldable design.
According to Android Headlines, Motorola’s device could arrive “in the coming months”, although there’s no specific launch date yet. There’s also no confirmed name, price or hardware specifications.
So for now, this is very much an early look rather than a confirmed product. But if Motorola is indeed preparing a wide foldable, these sketches suggest the company is at least thinking beyond the usual tall, narrow foldable format.
