Apple iPhone 16 Pro vs Motorola Razr 70

Our Verdict: The Apple iPhone 16 Pro is the natural fit for someone who wants iOS in a conventional handset, with a sharp 6.3-inch OLED display and storage reaching 1TB. The Motorola Razr 70 instead runs Android and unfolds to a 6.9-inch screen. Your software preference may settle this comparison before the hardware does, but the Razr's folding design is the key reason to choose it for a larger screen that closes into a shorter shape.

Over a full contract, the Razr 70 works out around £756 all-in, about £120 less than the iPhone 16 Pro.
