Motorola’s return to the US flagship spotlight with the Signature 27 has given Android fans plenty to look forward to, especially with its monster specs and renewed ambitions to challenge Samsung and Google. But how much will Americans have to cough up for Motorola’s latest powerhouse? A premature European retailer listing may have given us an early clue, and it also reveals a possible price for the company’s rumored Razr Flex foldable.

Portuguese retailer MegaPC has listed the Motorola Signature 27 alongside the unannounced Razr Flex 27, revealing potential European prices, memory configurations, and color options for both devices (via GSMArena).

The Motorola Signature 27 listing shows a 12GB RAM and 512GB storage configuration in Pantone Coal Smoke, priced at €1,594.90 (~$1,773). That’s a substantial jump from the original Motorola Signature, which launched earlier this year in Europe for €999 (~$1,168) with the same memory configuration. That’s a potential price increase of nearly 60%.

Granted, Motorola is making some serious hardware upgrades. The Signature 27 packs Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 chipset, a 200MP periscope camera, and Bang & Olufsen-tuned audio. Motorola is also promising seven years of software support, though its security update policy comes with some important caveats.

Meanwhile, the unannounced Razr Flex 27 appears in two listings, featuring Pantone Coriander and Dark Botanical Garden finishes. Both carry 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, with an identical €1,510.90 price tag, about $1,680.

That would make the Razr Flex considerably cheaper than Motorola’s existing Razr Fold, which launched in Europe at €1,999.99 and in the US at $1,899.99. However, the Razr Flex is reportedly a different, wider foldable design, not a direct successor.

There’s reason to remain skeptical, though. Both Razr Flex listings lack product images, while one description incorrectly references a clamshell design. All three listings are also marked temporarily out of stock, with no shipping dates.

Motorola hasn’t confirmed these prices, and retailer placeholders don’t always reflect final pricing. The Signature 27’s US price remains unknown, while the Razr Flex reportedly won’t debut until December.
