From the three new Moto Razr phones that made their debut yesterday, the Ultra (2026) is the one I want. While Samsung is the king of flip phones in terms of sales and recognition, I’d rather get the Moto Razr Ultra over the Galaxy Z Flip 7. That being said, it’s not the better choice for everyone.

AI and other software features companies tend to highlight as part of phone launches are great, but it’s the basics that matter to me first and foremost. Battery life is one of the pillars of a great smartphone, and the Razr Ultra offers more than the Z Flip 7.
Motorola’s foldable packs a 5,000mAh battery compared to the 4,300mAh you get with Samsung’s phone. That’s about a 16% difference, and while we don’t know exactly how much screen-on time the phone will offer, I’d argue that the number will be higher than what you get with Samsung.
