Suggesting full functionality is limited to the main one
The Motorola Razr V4 could join the ranks of foldable phones this year, but there’s still a lot that we don’t know about it. However, we do now have a better idea of how the phone’s secondary screen might be used.
According to a source speaking to XDA Developers, that secondary screen could be used as a trackpad to scroll through web pages and the like when you’re viewing them on the main display.
- The Samsung Galaxy Fold is a high-profile rival
- 2019 could be the year of both foldable and 5G phones

The source also says that up to six quick settings tiles could be displayed on this secondary screen, though it’s currently unknown whether these will be customizable and whether you’ll be able to scroll to see more.
Additionally, users will apparently be able to choose to display Google Assistant on this screen, or, if they’d rather have more security, they can instead be prompted to “flip open to unlock” when trying to use Assistant.
The secondary screen might also be able to display a different wallpaper to the main screen, and could be used to control media, as well as potentially displaying a clock and pulsing notifications.
Small and secondary
In other words, then it sounds like this secondary screen won’t have the full functionality of the main display, so if you want to use the Motorola Razr V4 – or whatever it launches as – properly, you’ll always have to flip it open.
The little external screen seems simply to be for shortcuts, notifications, and other minor things.
