Apple iPhone 16 Pro vs Motorola Razr Fold

Our Verdict: Comparing Apple iPhone 16 Pro and Motorola Razr Fold, the choice mostly comes down to display quality versus portability. The Motorola gives you a larger 8.1-inch screen, its Foldable LTPO AMOLED panel, and a higher-resolution 50MP front camera, while the iPhone is more appealing for a sharper 458 PPI display, its LTPO Super Retina XDR OLED panel, and a lighter 199g body. A bigger mAh figure is useful context, but real battery life still depends on software and chipset efficiency. Software may decide it too: the iPhone keeps you in Apple's iOS ecosystem, while the Motorola is the Android choice. Choose the Motorola for display quality; choose the iPhone if portability matters more.

Over a full contract, the iPhone 16 Pro works out around £876 all-in, about £682 less than the Razr Fold.
