The Motorola mobile brand, under the guidance of new owner Lenovo, suggests a new RAZR handset will arrive next month after a teaser video was posted to YouTube with a caption “Flip back to the RAZR days of yesteryear and get ready for the future”.

Included was also a hyperlink to Motorola’s website, which allows potential buyers to sign up for updates on upcoming Motorola devices that are due to launch in the next month. The video concludes with a date for the Lenovo Tech World 2016 event – Thursday, June 9th.
