Motorola is expected to announce new Razr phones within the next few days, including brand new models for its Razr, Razr Plus, and Razr Ultra flip phone foldables. With new versions on the horizon, I’d typically recommend not buying the current generation and waiting to see what the latest models bring.
However, based on what we know about the 2026 Razr lineup, that usual advice doesn’t apply. If the reports are true, this year’s Razr phones won’t just be minor spec upgrades over their predecessors; they’ll also be a lot more expensive.
So, what should you do? Don’t wait for the 2026 Razrs. If you’ve been considering buying a Razr but have been holding off, take this as your sign to rush out and buy a 2025 model at a steep discount while you still can.

The 2026 Razr lineup sounds like a major letdown

Although Motorola has yet to confirm any details about the Razr 2026 handsets, the rumor mill has been working at full force to paint a clear picture of what to expect. And what we’re expecting is … not great.
Before we get into pricing, let’s review the upgrades we’re expecting — starting with the base model Razr (2026). While a previous leak suggested the phone would have a MediaTek Dimensity 8000 chipset, the latest reporting claims it will actually be a Dimensity 7450X (a less impressive upgrade over the Dimensity 7400X inside the 2025 Razr). We’re also looking at a larger 4,800mAh battery, faster RAM and storage, and a 50MP ultrawide camera to replace the 13MP sensor in the 2025 model. Overall, not too shabby.
Unfortunately, the other two Razrs are significantly more disappointing.
