Key strengths
Motorola's clamshell flip form factor gives you a phone that folds flat in your pocket — at prices starting hundreds below Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip.
All Razr models feature an outer AMOLED cover display so you can check notifications, control music, and reply to messages without unfolding.
The Razr Ultra (2025) pairs Snapdragon 8 Elite with the category's largest battery — 4,700mAh — making it the most powerful flip phone available.
The Razr Ultra gets 5 years of OS updates; the base Razr and Razr+ get 3 years — real long-term value from your foldable investment.
The Motorola Razr series is the leading alternative to Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip in the flip-foldable market. The 2025 lineup spans from the base Razr at $699 with a Dimensity 7400X processor and 6.9-inch inner AMOLED to the Razr Ultra at $1,299 packing Snapdragon 8 Elite and the category's largest 4,700mAh battery. All three models feature an outer cover AMOLED display for notifications and quick actions without unfolding — and represent Motorola's strongest argument that you don't need a Samsung to get a great flip phone.
The Razr 2026 lineup goes on sale May 21, 2026 — just days away. The 2026 models bring meaningful upgrades: Snapdragon 8 Elite across more variants, a 5,000mAh battery in the Ultra, and 165Hz displays. The prices are also $100–$200 higher across the range. If budget matters, the Razr 2025 will see significant discounts once the 2026 launches.
The Razr and Galaxy Z Flip are direct clamshell flip competitors. The Razr (2025) at $699 undercuts the Z Flip on price and offers a larger cover display. The Galaxy Z Flip wins on software polish (One UI with 7 years of updates) and a longer track record for hinge durability. For pure value and cover screen experience, the Razr; for ecosystem and long-term support, the Z Flip.
Foldables are inherently more delicate than bar-form phones due to the flexible inner display. The Razr (2025) has IPX8 water resistance and uses Gorilla Glass Victus on the outer cover, with a hinge rated for hundreds of thousands of folds. Normal everyday use is fine, but the inner screen requires more careful handling than a conventional phone.
The Razr Ultra 2025 gets 5 years of OS updates and security patches. The base Razr and Razr+ get 3 years of OS updates and 4 years of security patches — competitive for Android but below Samsung's 7-year promise.
The Razr (2025) at $699 is the value entry with Dimensity 7400X and a 4,500mAh battery. The Razr+ ($999) upgrades to Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 for noticeably better performance and a higher-refresh display. The Razr Ultra ($1,299) goes all-in with Snapdragon 8 Elite, a 7-inch inner display, and the largest 4,700mAh battery in the category.
The Razr 2025's dual 50MP + 13MP setup is capable for everyday photography and uses the flip form factor cleverly — you can use the cover display as a viewfinder for selfies with the main camera. The Razr Ultra raises the bar further. Neither competes with dedicated camera flagships, but both deliver solid results for casual to enthusiast photographers.
