I spent two weeks with the Motorola Razr 2026, and while it's still the best mid-range flip phone, it left me wanting more
Motorola’s latest ‘affordable’ flip phone wants to dominate the clamshell space, but does it do enough to fight off Samsung?
I spent two weeks reviewing the Motorola Razr 2026, a mid-range foldable phone that offers a great design and solid battery life. At $799.99 / £799.99, it's the cheapest current-gen foldable on the market, undercutting its main rival, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, by $100 in the US. The Razr 2026 features a 6.9-inch internal LTPO AMOLED screen with Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support, along with a 3.6-inch external AMOLED screen for messaging apps and Google Maps.
The phone's battery life is impressive, lasting a day or more even with extensive use on the external display. However, the Razr 2026 doesn't offer much in terms of performance advancements over its predecessor, the Moto Razr 2025. While the cameras aren't truly flagship, they are functional, and the ability to use the main 50MP camera as a selfie camera when closed is a notable feature.
Overall, the Razr 2026 is the best mid-range flip phone you can buy, but if you're looking for flagship performance, you might want to consider other options.
