Motorola updates the Razr series with new flip phones, beginning at a price of $799.

      The Motorola Razr and Razr+ have made flip phones difficult to overlook.

      Motorola is updating its Razr series with new flip phones designed for various budgets and requirements. The Motorola Razr and Motorola Razr+ became available for pre-order on May 14 through Best Buy, Amazon, and Motorola.com, with a general release on May 21, both available unlocked.

      The Razr starts at $799.99, while the Razr+ is priced at $1,099.99. Both devices come equipped with Android 16 from the start and feature the iconic flip design associated with the Motorola Razr brand.

      What features does the Motorola Razr+ offer?

      The Razr+ is the more upscale option and it is evident in its specs. It is equipped with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 Mobile Platform, 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM, and 256GB of storage. The main display boasts a 6.9-inch Extreme AMOLED screen with a 165Hz refresh rate, peak brightness reaching 3000 nits, and full Dolby Vision support.

      The external display is a 4.0-inch Extreme AMOLED panel, also at 165Hz, allowing full app access without needing to open the phone. You can activate it with a hand hover, mute alarms, or even initiate a Google Gemini conversation simply by saying “Hey Google.”

      On the camera front, it features a dual 50MP system with optical image stabilization on the main lens, a 50MP ultrawide camera with macro capabilities, and a 32MP front camera. The 4500mAh battery supports 45W TurboPower charging as well as wireless charging. The Razr+ comes in Pantone Mountain View with a woven-inspired jacquard finish and is safeguarded by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus.

      Why is the Motorola Razr a strong purchase at $799?

      The standard Razr operates on the MediaTek Dimensity 7450X, includes 8GB of RAM, and offers 128GB of storage. Its main display is also a 6.9-inch Extreme AMOLED, but it operates at 120Hz compared to the Razr+’s 165Hz.

      The external display is a 3.6-inch Extreme AMOLED at 90Hz, still allowing users to run complete apps, check notifications, and reply to messages without opening the device. The camera configuration is similar to that of the Razr+, featuring a 50MP main camera, a 50MP ultrawide with macro, and a 32MP front camera.

      The Motorola Razr actually surpasses in battery performance with a 4800mAh battery providing over 36 hours of use from a single charge, along with 30W TurboPower charging and wireless charging capabilities.

      Additionally, it has been certified for MIL-STD-810H military durability, making it the first flip phone in its category to achieve this certification. Available colors include Pantone Hematite, Violet Ice, Sporting Green, and Bright White.

      Apple may incorporate visual AI directly into its camera app with iOS 27. A leak regarding iOS 27 suggests a smarter camera featuring built-in Siri intelligence. Reports from Bloomberg indicate that Apple is developing a new “Siri camera mode” along with enhancements to its Visual Intelligence capabilities, with the aim of making AI more integrated into the everyday iPhone experience.

      Motorola’s next budget phone has leaked in two Pantone colors, featuring a 200MP camera. The Moto G87's 200MP camera is a significant upgrade, but pairing it with a more basic chipset than its predecessor at a higher price is somewhat disappointing. The Moto G87 has recently surfaced online through tipster Evan Blass, who shared detailed renders of the upcoming Motorola mid-range device on X (formerly Twitter), providing insight into the phone ahead of its official launch.

      Given the leaked prices from last week combined with today’s renders, it appears the Moto G87 is preparing for an imminent launch in Europe, likely within the next few weeks. Currently, the renders display the phone in two color options: a dark gray, possibly named Pantone Overture Gray, and a cyan/bright blue variant known as Pantone Blue Atoll.

      Motorola’s new Razr Ultra foldable has a more attractive design and a higher price point. The Motorola Razr Ultra 2026 emphasizes the fashion aspect of foldables. While maintaining the well-known compact flip design, the new finishes make it appear less like a traditional smartphone and more like a fashionable accessory that unfolds into a full-sized flagship.

      Is this the most stylish Razr yet?
