Motorola’s 2026 Razr Ultra arrives a year after its 2025 sibling, keeping the same dimensions but adding a larger battery and a new 50‑MP camera. The device comes in two finishes—Pantone Cocoa and Orient Blue—while the 2025 model offers more color choices. The upgrade costs a hefty $1,499 for the sole 512 GB, 16 GB RAM variant, a $200 hike over the previous year.

Under the hood, both phones use the Snapdragon 8 Elite, but the 2026 power plant stays on the older generation instead of the newer Gen 5. Battery capacity jumps from 4,700 mAh to 5,000 mAh silicon‑carbon, giving the newer model a slight endurance edge while keeping the same 68‑W wired and 30‑W wireless charging speeds.

Display improvements are modest: the inner 7‑inch LTPO AMOLED now peaks at 5,000 nits instead of 4,500, while the outer 4‑inch screen gains Gorilla Glass Ceramic 3 protection. Both retain 165‑Hz adaptive refresh rates and 10‑bit color. Battery life remains all‑day on the 2025 model, and the 2026’s larger pack should extend usage marginally.

Software support stays capped at three Android releases and five years of security updates, matching the 2025 model. For buyers, the 2025 Ultra offers better value now that it drops to $800 for 512 GB, bundled with Moto Buds and a Moto Tag, while the 2026’s premium finish and larger battery come at a steep price. The 2025 remains the smarter purchase.
