About the Motorola Razr 40
The Motorola Razr 40 was the phone that made flip foldables affordable, and it is still one of the easiest ways into the format. Folded, it disappears into a pocket or a small bag in a way no ordinary phone manages; opened, you get a 6.9-inch 144Hz LTPO AMOLED that is as large and as smooth as most flagship slabs. The trade-off against Motorola's pricier Ultra model is the cover screen: at 1.5 inches it is a notification window and a viewfinder for selfies on the main camera, not a second phone you can run apps on. The Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 is a mid-range chip, so this is a phone for messaging, social apps and video rather than sustained gaming. Battery life from the 4,200mAh cell is respectable for a flip, helped by the low-power LTPO panel, and 30W wired plus 5W wireless charging covers the basics. Durability is the usual foldable caveat: there is a water-repellent coating rather than a full IP68 rating, and the crease is visible if you look for it. It suits anyone who wants the compact folded size and the novelty without paying flagship money.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Motorola Razr 40 worth buying?
Yes, if the folded size is the point. The Motorola Razr 40 gives you a full 6.9-inch 144Hz screen in a body that halves in your pocket, which no conventional phone can match. Accept that the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 is mid-range, the 1.5-inch cover screen is limited, and foldables need more care than a regular phone.
How big is the cover screen on the Motorola Razr 40?
The Motorola Razr 40 has a 1.5-inch external OLED panel. It shows the time, notifications and basic controls, and it works well as a viewfinder so you can shoot selfies with the better rear cameras, but it is not large enough to run full apps the way the Razr 40 Ultra's 3.6-inch cover display does.
Is the Motorola Razr 40 waterproof?
No. The Motorola Razr 40 has a water-repellent coating that protects against splashes and light rain, not a full IP68 rating, so it should not be submerged. Keep it away from dust and sand too, since grit is the main enemy of any folding hinge.
Does the Motorola Razr 40 have wireless charging?
Yes, the Motorola Razr 40 supports 5W wireless charging alongside 30W wired charging. Wireless speeds are slow, so the wired charger is what you will use day to day, with the pad better suited to overnight top-ups.
Is the Motorola Razr 40 camera good?
It is solid rather than outstanding. The 64MP main camera with optical stabilisation handles daylight well, and the 13MP ultrawide doubles as a macro lens with autofocus. The real advantage is the format: folding the phone into an L shape gives you a built-in tripod for low-light shots and video calls, and you can frame selfies on the cover screen using the main camera.
Should I get the Motorola Razr 40 or the Razr 40 Ultra?
The Razr 40 Ultra adds a 3.6-inch cover screen that runs full apps, a faster Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip and a 165Hz main display. The standard Razr 40 counters with a larger 4,200mAh battery against the Ultra's 3,800mAh and a higher-resolution 64MP main camera. Choose the Ultra if you want to use the phone closed, or the Razr 40 if battery life and a lower outlay matter more. Compare Motorola Razr 40 Ultra deals.

Based on main-sensor size (1-inch / 1/1.3" beats 1/2.0"), telephoto reach (periscope > 5x > 3x optical), image processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra, Honor Magic Pro, Xiaomi Ultra), pro video features (ProRes, Apple Log, Dolby Vision), camera-partnership branding (Leica, Hasselblad, Zeiss) and OIS. Older flagships are de-rated since image processing pipelines have advanced significantly each generation. Megapixel count is deliberately downweighted — it correlates poorly with real-world camera quality. Where DXOMARK has lab-tested the phone, its measured score replaces this estimate.

Based on battery capacity (mAh) adjusted for platform efficiency calibrated against NotebookCheck, Tom's Guide, GSMArena and CNET reviewer tests. Apple A-series gets +45% (iOS process freezing + LTPO 1Hz + tuned panels make iPhone Pro Max outlast many 6500+ mAh Android phones in measured tests). Top Snapdragon / Dimensity flagships get +15%, budget chipsets are penalised −15% to −25% to reflect less efficient displays and looser background limits. Charging speed is excluded — see the separate Fast charging tag for that.
