Motorola’s new Razr Ultra is here—and it’s not playing it safe. Priced at $1,299, the foldable comes packed with top-tier hardware, AI tricks, and bold design flourishes including a real wood back panel. It headlines a trio of new Razr phones launching this month.
Motorola Razr Ultra gets flagship specs and standout design
At the heart of the Razr Ultra is a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip paired with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. It’s fitted with a 7-inch inner display capable of hitting 4,500 nits, a step above the 3,000 nits seen on the Razr and Razr Plus.
The cameras don’t hold back either. All three sensors—main, ultrawide, and selfie—come in at 50 megapixels, with larger 2.0μm binned pixels improving low-light performance. Meanwhile, the outer screen remains at 4 inches, but the whole phone feels like a leap forward in premium polish.
Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses now feature live translation and expanded AI capabilities, enhancing real-time communication and user interaction.
The return of wood: Motorola brings back classic textures
What truly separates the Ultra from the rest of the pack is its design. Motorola is offering the device in unique finishes including Alcantara, textured red, and magenta—but the headline is a real wood back panel. Yes, actual wood, in a throwback to the Moto X days.
It’s a bold move, but one that makes the Razr Ultra feel personal. This isn’t just another foldable—it’s one you’d show off, not just flip open.
New hinge cuts the crease and boosts durability
Motorola also addressed one of the foldable’s biggest pain points: the screen crease. All three models now use a titanium hinge that’s four times stronger than before and reduces that visible dip in the center when opened. The result is a smoother screen and a more solid build overall.
Each phone now carries an IP48 rating. That’s solid water resistance, though dust can still be a threat. You might want to think twice before flipping it open at the beach.
Moto AI debuts with smarter tools—and a dedicated button
The Razr Ultra comes with a dedicated AI button tied to a new system called Moto AI. Features include “Remember this,” which saves content like screenshots and notes for later recall, and “Catch me up,” which summarizes missed notifications.
Moto AI is available across the lineup, but only the Ultra includes a physical shortcut. There’s even a partnership with Perplexity baked in for smarter suggestions and summaries.
Motorola’s not chasing foldable trends here—it’s setting its own tone. The Razr Ultra might not be for everyone, but for those looking to mix luxury, nostalgia, and cutting-edge features, this phone hits a very specific, very stylish note.
