Weekly poll Motorola

While this year the big news in the Motorola Razr family is the launch of the first book-style foldable, the Razr brand is still very much associated with flip foldables. The company refreshed its offerings with three new models: the Razr 70, Razr 70+ and Razr 70 Ultra. As usual, these will have slightly different names in the US: Razr 2026, Razr+ 2026 and Razr Ultra 2026. Let’s start with the top model.

Weekly poll: would you buy a Motorola Razr 70, Razr 70+ or Razr 70 Ultra? Which one?

The Motorola Razr 70 Ultra (aka Razr Ultra 2026) is an iterative update – it uses the same Snapdragon 8 Elite silicon, although it does have the overclocked version (4.47GHz CPU instead of 4.32GHz). Still, this means that it will be a generation behind other 2026 releases.

The new Ultra has the same dimensions as before and uses a 7” 165Hz LTPO panel for the main display – the new panel is a bit brighter and peaks at 5,000 nits (up from 4,500 nits). The 4” cover display (165Hz LTPO) is the same.

The battery also got a small bump and now has 5,000mAh capacity (+300mAh compared to the 2025 model), while charging is the same – for what it’s worth, at 68W wired and 30W wireless, it’s faster than any Samsung, especially the Z Flip.

The cameras seem the same on paper with a 50MP (1/1.56”) sensor in the main, a 50MP ultra-wide and a 50MP selfie camera. However, the main module features a LOFIC sensor – we’ll have to test it to find out how much of a difference it makes.

We know this makes a difference, though – the Motorola Razr Ultra 2026 costs $1,500 in the US. That’s a $200 price hike compared to the launch price of the Ultra 2025. In Europe, the prices are £1,200 / €1,400. What do you think – are you interested in the Razr 70 Ultra / Razr Ultra 2026?

This is a new development – there’s a Motorola Razr 70+ this year (and the corresponding Razr+ 2026). Last year, there was only the Razr+ 2025, i.e. the US model. Don’t get too excited, though, it’s basically the same phone.

There are a few changes and the only one that’s worth mentioning is the jump to 4,500mAh battery capacity (up from 4,000mAh). Charging is the same (45W/15W) and the chipset is the same (Snapdragon 8s Gen 3). The main camera still uses a small 50MP sensor (1/1.95”), while the secondary module was switched to a 50MP ultra-wide, replacing the 2x/47mm telephoto of the 2025 phone.

In the US, the Motorola Razr+ 2026 will sell for a hefty $1,100 – that’s $100 more than the 2025 Plus. Europeans are looking at £1,000 / €1,150 price tags. Considering the limited changes, can you see yourself buying the Razr 70+, especially considering that most regions didn’t get the 2025 Plus?

The Motorola Razr 70 is the only one of the trio to bring a new chipset – again, don’t get too excited. Alas, the Dimensity 7450X is a mild refresh of the 7400X that the 2025 phone used. There’s a small (+300mAh) bump in battery capacity too, it now totals 4,800mAh (charging is the same as before at 30W/15W).

This leaves the new ultra-wide camera as the most exciting change for this year’s vanilla phone – it now has a 50MP sensor (up from 13MP), just like the Razr+ and Razr Ultra. Okay, it’s not much, but it’s something.

Motorola plans to ask $800 for the Razr 2026 – this is another $100 price hike compared to the year-old model. In Europe, it’s £800 / €870. Are you planning on spending that much on the Motorola Razr 70?

No they are lazy and dont trust own technology thats the only reason phones and other devices dont have 5-10 years of warranty. Software updates are like a cosmetic changes. Real innovation comes from prolonged warranty. Rather will have 10 ye...

Sorry, your logic doesn't work like that. It's much easier and economical to make software updates than give warranty services, which is why companies can give longer support than the warranty period
