Apple iPhone 13 vs Motorola Razr 70

Our Verdict: The Motorola Razr 70 has the better camera on paper, 50MP versus 12MP, plus a 32MP selfie camera against 12MP, and there's more battery in the Razr 70, 4800mAh to 3227mAh, though iOS and Android manage power differently, so more mAh doesn't always mean longer battery life. The Razr 70 has the bigger screen at 6.9" against 6.1", while the Apple iPhone 13 has the sharper one at 457 PPI, and the iPhone 13 offers up to 512GB of storage versus 256GB on the Razr 70. Only pay up for the Razr 70 if you'll use what it offers; if not, the iPhone 13 makes more sense.

The iPhone 13 is the cheaper one to own: around £391 over a typical contract, £362 less than the Razr 70.
