Motorola continues to push the boundaries of foldable smartphone technology with the official launch of its latest models — the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra and Motorola Razr 60. Announced earlier today, these new devices promise a blend of style, innovation, and performance, targeting both premium and mainstream markets.

Cutting-Edge Design and Displays

The Razr 60 Ultra carries forward the iconic clamshell design that made the Razr series a legend, but with significant modern enhancements. It features a 6.9-inch pOLED main display with a 165Hz refresh rate, offering ultra-smooth scrolling and vibrant colors. The 3.6-inch cover screen has also been upgraded, providing users with more functionality without the need to unfold the device.

The standard Razr 60 shares the same form factor but slightly tones down the specifications, with a 6.9-inch main display capped at a 144Hz refresh rate and a 3.0-inch outer screen. Both models boast Gorilla Glass Victus protection for enhanced durability.

Performance and Hardware

Under the hood, the Razr 60 Ultra is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, coupled with up to 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB UFS 4.0 storage. This setup ensures top-tier performance for multitasking, gaming, and content creation.

The Razr 60, meanwhile, runs on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor, paired with up to 8GB RAM and 256GB storage, making it a compelling choice for those seeking the foldable experience at a slightly lower price point.

Both devices ship with Android 14 out of the box, along with Motorola’s near-stock interface, enriched with customizations to take full advantage of the foldable design.

Cameras

Photography sees a substantial boost with the Razr 60 Ultra featuring a 50MP main camera with optical image stabilization (OIS) and a 13MP ultra-wide lens that doubles as a macro shooter. On the front, a 32MP selfie camera ensures crisp video calls and selfies.

The Razr 60 offers a respectable 64MP main camera with OIS and a 13MP ultra-wide/macro sensor, along with the same 32MP front-facing camera.

Battery and Charging

Motorola has equipped the Razr 60 Ultra with a 4000mAh battery, supporting 45W wired fast charging and 15W wireless charging. The Razr 60 comes with a 4200mAh battery — slightly larger — but maintains the same 30W wired and 15W wireless charging capabilities.

Price and Availability

The Motorola Razr 60 Ultra is priced starting at $999 globally, with the Razr 60 launching at a more accessible $699. Both models are available in three striking colors: Midnight Black, Viva Magenta, and Glacier Blue.

Motorola has confirmed that pre-orders will begin immediately in key markets, including the United States, Europe, and parts of Asia. Shipping is expected to commence by mid-May 2025.

Final Thoughts

With these launches, Motorola is clearly doubling down on the foldable segment, aiming to cater to both premium users and those looking for a more affordable foldable option. The Razr 60 Ultra, with its cutting-edge specs and refined design, looks poised to challenge competitors like Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip lineup, while the Razr 60 offers an attractive entry point for new foldable enthusiasts.

Motorola’s strategy of blending nostalgia with futuristic innovation seems to be paying off — and 2025 might just be the year foldables go truly mainstream.
