Apple iPhone 15 Plus vs Motorola Razr 70

Our Verdict: The Motorola Razr 70 leads on camera hardware with a 50MP main sensor to the Apple iPhone 15 Plus's 48MP, plus a 32MP selfie camera against 12MP, and there's more battery in the Razr 70, 4800mAh to 4383mAh, but capacity doesn't compare cleanly across iOS and Android, so it isn't a battery-life verdict on its own. The Razr 70 has the bigger screen at 6.9" against 6.7", while the iPhone 15 Plus 5G has the sharper one at 460 PPI, and the iPhone 15 Plus 5G offers up to 512GB of storage versus 256GB on the Razr 70. Get the iPhone 15 Plus 5G if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the Razr 70 covers the basics for less.

Over a full contract, the Razr 70 works out around £749 all-in, about £96 less than the iPhone 15 Plus 5G.
