Moto Razr 2022 finally makes its global debut, months after it was launched in China

One of the most anticipated foldable devices of this year, the Moto Razr 2022 from Motorola has finally been launched globally, after almost three months the device was first launched in China.

Moto Razr 2022 finally makes its global debut, months after it was launched in China

The device will be available in select European markets starting this week, and will then find its way over to other Asian markets including India as well. However, the device will be sold in limited numbers in these markets. Motorola is not ready to share the availability date for now, but we can expect that to be revealed soon enough. 

Moto Razr 2022: International version specifications
The Moto Razr 2022 features a 6.7-inch foldable P-OLED panel with a punch-hole for the camera. The screen has an FHD+ resolution, which supports a 144Hz refresh rate, 10-bit colours, HDR10+, and DC dimming. 

There’s a redesigned hinge mechanism and the chin from the previous Razr models is now gone. The back panel of the device features a 2.7-inch P-OLED secondary display. The secondary display has more functionality than what the Galaxy Z Flip 4 offers and can be used as a viewfinder for rear cameras, to check for messages, or even to play games that support the smaller screen size. 

Powering the device is a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset from Qualcomm, which has been paired with up to 16 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 512 GB of UFS 3.1 storage for the Chinese variants. International markets will get a single, 8GB + 256GB variant.

The device boots to Android 12 OS, which is overlaid with MyUI 4.0. The device comes with support for Ready For 3.5, which allows users to connect it to an external to take advantage of a full-blown desktop PC experience.  

Above the secondary display is a horizontal dual-camera setup, which has an OIS-enabled 50MP camera, and a 13MP ultra-wide shooter, which also functions as a macro camera. The display punch-hole on the display houses a 32MP camera.  

The Moto Razr 2022 comes with a 3,500mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging. For connectivity, the device gets dual SIM, 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, NFC, and a USB-C port.

Moto Razr 2022: International version pricing
The European market is set to get only the 8GB + 256GB variant, which will be priced at €1,200 across Europe, and £949 in the UK. The same 8 GB + 256 GB variant is priced at 6,499 Yuan or roughly $970 in China.

The pricing of the devices in India will be similar to what we see in the international market, plus some taxes. The device was supposed to have an India launch by the end of this month. However, seeing that the international launch was delayed, the Indian launch is also likely to be pushed to either the end of the year or the beginning of 2023.

COVID-19 origins: Should we pay more attention to the lab leak theory and formally investigate it?

Image
A year and a half into the pandemic, we still do not know exactly where the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes Covid-19, came from. The prevailing view so far has been that the virus “spilled over” from bats into humans. But there are increasing calls to investigate the possibility that it emerged from a lab in Wuhan, China, where Covid first appeared at the end of 2019. So what do we know for sure, and what do we need still to find out? We know the sequence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is close to that of bat coronaviruses . Several decades ago its “ancestor” was circulating in bat populations in southern Asia. But there are still many unanswered questions: we don’t know how the virus arrived in Wuhan, how its sequence evolved to allow human infection, and under what conditions it infected the first people who crossed its path. And for each of these stages, we don’t know whether there was a human contribution (direct or indirect). Zoonotic transmission pathways, in other words the pas

Menstrual cups are cheaper, more sustainable than pads and tampons for women

Image
Every year in America, women spend at least US$2.8 billion on sanitary pads and tampons that can take hundreds of years to decompose . Is there a more economical and environmentally friendly way? To find out, we asked Susan Powers , a professor of sustainable environmental systems at Clarkson University about her work comparing the environmental impact of tampons, sanitary pads and menstrual cups. What is a menstrual cup? A menstrual cup is a type of reusable feminine hygiene product. It’s a small, flexible bell-shaped cup made of rubber or silicone that a woman inserts into her vagina to catch and collect menstrual fluid. It can be used for up to 12 hours, after which it is removed to dispose of the fluid and cleaned. The cup is rinsed with hot water and soap between each insertion and sterilized in boiling water at least once per period. A cup can last up to 10 years . Although menstrual cups have been around for decades, they historically have been less popular than pads or ta

Human bodies respond to infections differently depending on the time of day

Image
When microorganisms – such as bacteria or viruses – infect us, our immune system jumps into action. It’s highly trained to sense and eliminate infections and clear up any damage caused by them. It’s typically assumed our immune systems work the exact same way regardless of whether an infection occurs during the day or at night. But research spanning over half a century now shows our bodies actually respond differently at day and night. The reason for this is our body clock, and the fact that each cell in the body, including our immune cells, can tell what time of day it is. Our body clock has evolved over millions of years to help us survive. Every cell in the body has a collection of proteins that indicate the time depending on their levels. Knowing whether it’s day or night means our body can adjust its functions and behaviours (such as when we want to eat) to the correct time. Our body clock does this by generating 24 hour rhythms (also termed circadian rhythms ) in how cells f
