Earlier in the year, Motorola announced multiple new smartphones, although much of the spotlight was on the Razr Fold. I've been eagerly awaiting more news on the other devices, and today, I finally got it. The company has officially revealed the rest of the 2026 Razr series, which consists of the base model, the Razr+, and the Razr Ultra as the new flagship.

Based on the information so far, the Razr Ultra is shaping up to be a pretty good foldable. Motorola has made multiple hardware improvements that I think will give the top foldables on the market a real run for their money, like the Galaxy Z Flip 7. Samsung's device is one of the top Android phones, boasting a larger cover display, a sleeker form factor, and much better battery life than its predecessor.
Based on these early details and Motorola's recent track record, I do think that the Razr Ultra will be better than the Galaxy Z Flip 7 in certain areas. I will break down the individual specifications on the two foldables and highlight where each device shines. Keep in mind that this isn't a formal review of the 2026 Razr Ultra. It is a forward-looking comparison.
