For some time now, the base razor has been the strangest one. You’ll get a smaller cover display, a weaker second camera, and less RAM than the pricier models. But this year, Motorola really got it right. The Motorola Razr 2026 is official today, and the entry-level model is actually worth talking about.
Motorola announced the full 2026 Razr Flip lineup on April 29, which includes three models: the Razr, Razr+, and Razr Ultra. Pre-orders will begin on May 14 at Best Buy, Amazon, and Motorola.com. The sale of all three will be unlocked on May 21.
The base Razer 2026 starts at $799.99, which is $100 more than last year. But in return you get a dual 50MP rear camera system. The Razer 2025 features a 50MP main paired with a 13MP ultrawide. Both shooters are now 50MP, which is finally on par with what the Razer+ has been offering for the past few years. The battery also increases from 4500mAh to 4800mAh, which Motorola says will last for over 36 hours on a single charge. Rounding out the package is a 3.6-inch external display and a 6.9-inch Extreme AMOLED internal screen.
The Razr+ 2026 is priced at $1,099.99, which is more than $100. It features a 4.0-inch outer display, 6.9-inch Extreme AMOLED inner screen with Dolby Vision, Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, 4500mAh battery with 45W TurboPower charging, and 15W wireless charging.
What’s new with the Razer Ultra?
The Razer Ultra 2026 gets the biggest price bump, hitting $1,499.99. That’s $200 more than the 2025 model. You are getting Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, triple 50MP camera system, 7.0-inch Extreme AMOLED inner display and 5000mAh battery. Motorola claims the Ultra has the biggest battery and fastest charging of any flip phone right now, with 68W TurboPower wired charging that can provide a full day’s power in 8 minutes.
Across all three models, the new lineup includes AI camera features including Group Shot, Signature Style, and Frame Match. All three phones include Moto AI, support for Google Gemini, and ship with completely updated durability. The Ultra debuts with Gorilla Glass Ceramic 3 on the external display, while the Razer and Razer+ have Gorilla Glass Victus.
The Razer Ultra’s specs look familiar today, so the $200 increase is going to be a bummer for many buyers. The base razor is a different story. Closing the camera gap with the Razer+ makes it the most competitive entry-level model yet.
