I was reminded of a scene from the movie Margin Call when the Motorola Razr Fold was first announced. Jeremy Irons’ character explained that there are three ways to get ahead in business. You can be first, be smarter than everyone else, or you can cheat.
Motorola wasn’t going to be first to market with a book-style foldable, so that was out. I figured the company would come up with decent hardware, but I thought the only way for Motorola to have a chance would be the equivalent of cheating — cut the price so deeply that the value was irresistible.
