Motorola still makes foldable Razr phones, in case you were wondering. The brand just launched 3 new styles with some serious tech upgrades from the original Paris Hilton days.

Motorola announced three new foldable Razr phones on April 24, including the standard Razr, Razr Plus, and Razr Ultra. The phones will be available to preorder on May 7 before a May 15 release date.

All three flip phones feature upgraded titanium hinges and common AI features from Google and Motorola. Otherwise, each Razr phone's performance, features, and price vary according to its model name: The standard Razr is the most affordable and comparatively basic model, the Razr Plus is the mid-tier option, and the new high-end Razr Ultra model is the most expensive and feature-packed version.

Here's what to know about Motorola's latest devices, some of which should compete among the best foldable phones released this year in the clamshell style.

Motorola Razr 2025: Release date

Motorola says all three Razr models will be "available for pre-order at Best Buy, Amazon.com, and motorola.com on May 7 and on-sale universally unlocked on May 15."

The Razr phones will also be available from carriers like Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T on May 15.

Motorola Razr 2025: Model highlights

Despite some common overarching features, the three new Razr models have different processors, cameras, materials, displays, and battery sizes.

Motorola Razr

The standard Razr runs on the relatively new Mediatek Dimensity 7400X processor, which we haven't experienced on another phone yet, nor have we benchmarked it, so it's difficult to predict exactly how well it will perform. The processor is paired with 8GB RAM, which is on the low side for a $700 Android phone but on par with expectations for a foldable in its price range.

The material options include plastic and a "leather-inspired" finish.

It features a 3.6-inch OLED external display that supports up to 90Hz and nearly covers the phone's top exterior half. That's slightly smaller than the four-inch external displays on the Razr Plus and Razr Ultra, but still much more useful than the tiny screen featured on previous base-level Razrs.

The standard Razr's internal OLED display is 6.9 inches, marginally smaller than the seven-inch internal displays on the Razr Plus and Razr Ultra. It supports up to 120Hz, which we'd expect on any $700 Android phone.

It shares a 50MP main camera with the Razr Plus and has a 13MP ultrawide camera. The front camera is 32MP. Motorola phone cameras haven't competed especially well in the recent past, but we'd love to be surprised when we test the standard Razr's cameras. Its main camera, at least, is likely to perform relatively well, as it's the same camera in the $1,000 Razr Plus.

The standard Razr has the second-largest battery in the new Razr lineup, so we're expecting good battery life relative to its price.

Motorola Razr Plus

The Razr Plus runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, a slightly less-powerful version of the top Android phone processor from 2024. It's extremely powerful and should provide a quick and smooth experience for all apps and games. It's paired with 12GB RAM, which is in line with other Android phones in the $1,000 price range.

Its external OLED display is four inches and supports up to 165Hz. It covers the entire top exterior half for a slightly more premium experience than the standard Razr when using the phone while folded.

The internal OLED display is seven inches and also supports up to 165Hz, though you're unlikely to notice a smoother animation experience compared to phones with a 120Hz refresh rate.

The Razr Plus features either a "leather-inspired" or "velvet-inspired" finish. Based on previous Razrs with these materials, the finish should be quite nice. It's somewhat unique among phones available in the US, which mostly feature glass or plastic exterior finishes. (As an aside, Paris Hilton's "leather-inspired" limited-edition version of the 2024 Razr Plus remains available.)

Camera-wise, the Razr Plus has the same 50MP main camera as the standard Razr, but it includes a 50MP 2x zoom camera instead of an ultrawide lens.

That's an oddly small zoom factor compared to most phones with dedicated zoom cameras, which are usually at least 3x. Plus, any of the best phones from Samsung, Google, and Apple can achieve optical-quality 2x zoom from their main cameras, so Motorola's dedicated 2x zoom camera is slightly confounding. The front camera is the same 32MP as the standard Razr.

Motorola Razr Ultra

The highest-end model and a new addition to the Razr lineup, the Ultra, features the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor found on the Samsung Galaxy S25, which is also our top pick for the best Android phone overall. It's paired with 16GB RAM for compromise-free performance.

The Razr Ultra has the same display size and specs as the Razr Plus — a four-inch external display and a seven-inch internal display, all OLEDS, and all support a 165Hz refresh rate.

It also features the most premium materials, like Italian-made Alcantara (synthetic fabric), FSC-certified wood, and satin- and leather-inspired finishes.

The Razr Ultra includes three 50MP cameras: a main camera that's technologically superior to the rest of the lineup, an ultrawide that supports macro photos, and a front camera.

It has the largest battery in the new Razr lineup, positioning it to compete among the best phones for battery life.

Common to all new Razrs

Like the previous generation, each new Razr includes Google's Gemini AI chatbot. All the new Razrs also include proprietary Moto AI features, like Catch Me Up, which is designed to help when you have lots of notifications by prioritizing them and offering summaries.

There's also Pay Attention, which records audio and automatically transcribes and summarizes it. This feature can be helpful for any kind of audio recording you make. Similar features exist on other phones, and I wish I had them when I was at school.

Remember This is a reminder tool that captures various details and context of what you're seeing on the display, which you can revisit later. It's similar to the Screenshots feature on Google's Pixel 9 phones.

All Razr phones come with IP48 dust and water resistance, which is on par with Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip 6. That means it's not well guarded against dust particles larger than 1mm (like sand particles), but it's water resistant up to nearly five feet of submersion for up to 30 minutes.

Each phone also features an upgraded titanium-reinforced hinge, which offers greater durability relative to previous generations' stainless steel hinges.

None of the new Razrs support the fastest mmWave 5G networks on any carrier. It might seem ridiculous for a phone like the $1,300 Razr Ultra to omit mmWave 5G support, but few would likely be able to tell — in our testing, the low- and mid-band 5G networks supported by the Razr phones on any of the best cell phone plans should be more than fast enough for most people.
