The 2025 Motorola Razr Lineup Isn’t Just Smarter—It’s Got Style, Sass, and AI Smarts

Motorola is officially over the nostalgia play. Sure, the flip is still iconic, but the 2025 Motorola razr family—the razr ultra, razr+, and razr—is doing more than just tipping its hat to early-2000s cool. These new foldables are smarter, tougher, and dare we say, more fashion-forward than ever, all while quietly flexing some very grown-up AI muscle. Whether you’re a power user, a style maven, or someone who just misses slamming their phone shut after a call, there’s something here worth flipping for.

Flip Phones, Evolved: the 2025 Motorola Razr Lineup

The 2025 Motorola razr lineup comes in three flavors, each tailored to a different kind of phone personality. If you want it all—glitz, performance, and enough AI to practically plan your day—the Motorola razr ultra is your power flip. It’s rocking the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Elite chip, a dedicated AI engine, and a stunning 7″ pOLED screen inside.

Fold it shut and you’ve still got a 4.0″ external display—big enough to handle messages, widgets, or streaming music without even opening it.

It’s available May 15, unlocked or through AT&T and T-Mobile, starting at $1,299.99.

The razr+ dials things back just a notch but still brings the goods with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, a 4.0″ external screen, and a clean design wrapped in Pantone’s 2025 Color of the Year—Mocha Mousse, no less. It’s a solid middle ground at $999.99.

And then there’s the entry-level Motorola razr, which brings folding fun to the masses with a smaller 3.6″ cover display, MediaTek’s snappy Dimensity 7400X processor, and a starting price of $699.99. Even at this tier, you’re getting AI-enhanced photography, flexible design, and finishes that feel more boutique than budget.

All three will be available for pre-order on May 7 and officially hit shelves on May 15.

AI That Knows You Better Than Your Best Friend

Motorola isn’t just stuffing buzzwords into the razr name. The new Moto AI system isn’t your average assistant—it’s more like that extremely organized friend who somehow knows your schedule better than you do.

Need a recap of messages you missed while doomscrolling? That’s Catch Me Up. Trying to focus? Pay Attention filters what really matters. Want your phone to remember that taco recipe from earlier? Remember This has your back.

If you’re holding the razr ultra, you also get a dedicated AI key to access everything fast, plus hands-free features when your phone’s propped up in tent mode—great for cooking, Zooming, or making sure your phone doesn’t end up in the salsa.

And because this AI isn’t confined to the phone screen, it plays nice with other screens, too. With Smart Connect, you can beam content to your TV, mirror your phone to your laptop, or jump between devices without breaking a sweat.

Looks That Actually Matter

If you’ve ever picked a phone based on color (no shame), Motorola heard you. The 2025 Motorola razr lineup is giving design nerds and Pantone loyalists something to talk about.

The moto razr family

The razr ultra shows off in four finishes, including leather-inspired textures, satin touches, and even a new Italian-made Alcantara option—think luxury car interior, but for your palm. Want to go full nature-core? There’s even a wood back made from responsibly sourced FSC-certified material.

The razr+ gets a soft-touch leather-inspired look in Midnight Blue, Hot Pink, and yes, that velvety Mocha Mousse. And even the more affordable razr gets its moment in the spotlight with colors like Parfait Pink and Lightest Sky in materials that feel anything but cheap.

Design isn’t just skin-deep here. The new titanium-reinforced hinge plate is four times stronger than surgical-grade stainless steel and built to fold more than 35% longer than previous models. Pair that with an IP48 rating (translation: water and dust resistance) and you’ve got a flip phone that’s just as ready for a pool party as a board meeting.

Cameras That Understand the Assignment

Whether you’re snapping selfies, recording TikToks, or just trying to capture your dog mid-zoomie, these razrs know what they’re doing. The razr ultra steals the show with a triple 50MP camera setup—the first of its kind on a flip phone—and AI-powered features like Group Shot (no more blinkers), Action Shot (for fast-moving kids or sports), and Air Gesture (wave to start recording, because buttons are so 2022).

The razr+ also packs a 50MP punch, plus a 50MP telephoto lens for detailed zooms without grainy regret. And the base razr, while more modest, still brings its A-game with a 50MP main sensor and ultra-wide options.

No matter which model you grab, Motorola’s Photo Enhancement Engine steps in to auto-adjust your pics for better color, clarity, and style based on what you normally shoot. Basically, your phone starts to learn your aesthetic. If that doesn’t say “personal assistant,” what does?

Battery Life That Doesn’t Judge You

Let’s talk stamina. The razr ultra comes with a hefty 4700mAh battery that powers through over 36 hours of mixed use. When you do need to juice up, the 68W TurboPower charger (sold separately) gives you a day’s worth of power in eight minutes. There’s wireless and reverse charging, too, if you’re feeling generous.

The razr+ holds strong with a 4000mAh battery and 45W charging, while the razr balances size and endurance with a 4500mAh cell and 30W fast charge. Either way, Motorola clearly doesn’t want your phone dying halfway through your group chat meltdown.

Accessories That Complete the Look

If the razr family is your new wardrobe staple, consider the moto buds loop and moto watch fit your accessories of choice.

The moto buds loop are Motorola’s first open-ear earbuds, tuned by Bose for premium sound and featuring a luxe Swarovski crystal option if you’re feeling fancy. They’re lightweight, water-repellent, and packed with AI smarts like voice-triggered commands and spatial sound. Battery life? Eight hours per charge, with 37 total hours when you include the case.

For your wrist, the moto watch fit is sleek, thin, and tough enough for the gym, pool, or hiking trail. It’s got built-in GPS, heart rate tracking, 100+ sport modes, and it syncs with your Motorola phone so you can change tracks or check messages without pulling out your device. It even lets you create your own AI-generated watch faces with a quick text prompt. One charge keeps it running for up to 16 days.

Both accessories are coming soon to North America, with pricing and availability dropping later this year.

Final Flip

Whether you’re nostalgic for the old razr days or you’re just ready to stand out in a sea of slab phones, the 2025 Motorola razr lineup makes a strong case for the fold. They’re not just playing on past glory—they’re pushing the flip format forward with real innovation, thoughtful design, and a splash of personality. You don’t have to be a tech expert to appreciate what these phones offer—you just have to want a device that fits your life and actually makes it easier. And honestly? That’s worth flipping out over.

    That looks like a really cool phone! I loved my old pink Razr and kept it until it totally died.

  2. Motorola is really going all in on flip phones with modern folding screens.

    I was really tempted to get a Razr when I upgraded last year… it’s still high up on my radar and I think I might give it a try next go around.
