Motorola’s Souped-Up Folding Phone Is Almost Half Off

For a limited time, you can grab the Motorola Razr Ultra with 16 GB of memory and 512 GB of storage for just $700, a $600 discount from its usual price.

For a limited time, you can grab the Motorola Razr Ultra with 16 GB of memory and 512 GB of storage for just $700, a $600 discount from its usual price. It's our favorite folding smartphone, with excellent performance, full-day battery life, and all the trappings you'd expect from a phone that doesn't also fold in half.

While they may look similar to previous generations of Motorola Razr, there are quite a few under-the-hood improvements for the 2025 model. The Ultra model has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, paired with 16 GB of memory, for super snappy performance in everyday use and while gaming. It has an upgrade 4,700-mAh battery, which our reviewer Julian Chokkattu found was easily able to make it through a full day of use with around a quarter of its charge left. If you're a heavy user and find yourself running low often, there's 68-watt wired charging and 30-watt Qi wireless charging support to bring you back to life.

There's no need to worry about the hinge in the middle breaking over time, as all the 2025 Razr models feature a titanium-reinforced hinge plate that should hold up well to daily use. While beauty is subjective, these phones really stand out, with beautiful Pantone color options and unique materials for the case. The screens are more durable too, with ceramic glass coating, and the Ultra features a proper AMOLED internal display with a refresh rate up to 165 Hz, perfect for gaming or smooth scrolling. The exterior screen is a 4-inch pOLED, which also has a 165-Hz refresh rate, so you can check notifications, respond to messages, and even catch a quick selfie without opening your phone.

If you're ready to flip for this awesome Android smartphone, head on over to Amazon to grab the Motorola Razr Ultra in Pantone Scarab for just $700. If you don't like the green, for $100 more you can upgrade to one of the other Pantone colors, Cabaret, Rio Red, or Mountain Trail. If you're curious what the competition looks like, make sure to check out our guide to the best folding phones.
