Lenovo uses the classic RAZR to tease a new Moto phone on 9 June

It’s also when Lenovo is pegged to reveal the new Moto X phones, supposedly codenamed the Vertex and Vector Thin. As recent leaks have suggested (see renders below), the Vector Thin will have a 5.5in Quad HD screen and Snapdragon 820 chip, along with either 3GB or 4GB RAM.

The Vertex, meanwhile, will trim down the specs with a 1080p screen at the same size, along with a Snapdragon 625 and 2GB RAM (with 16GB storage) or 3GB RAM (with 32GB storage) options. It’s said to be a thicker phone with a much larger battery as a trade-off for the lower performance.

Supposedly, both phones will allow for LG G5-esque modular upgrades, only here they’ll snap onto the rear of the phone like specialised backplates. A report from VentureBeat suggests these so-called "Amps" will offer features like extended battery life, a camera grip with optical zoom, stereo speakers, a pico projector, and a grippable backing with a wide angle lens.

A new report this week from VentureBeat suggested that the phones will actually bear a new Moto Z branding instead of Moto X, with the Vector Thin known as the Moto Z Style and the Vertex carrying the Moto Z Play moniker.

Ultimately, the teaser clip doesn’t say much: it essentially reminds us that everyone loved the RAZR, regardless of clique or fashion style. The new phone probably isn’t a classic RAZR reboot, however we assume that Lenovo hopes the new Moto phones will be able to recapture that irresistible magic. We should find out in just a couple weeks when Lenovo Tech World starts up.
