Motorola Edge 70 vs Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7

Our Verdict: Galaxy Z Flip7 brings the more convincing case for more deal choice, with far broader live deal availability (6,365 active deals). Edge 70 is still worth choosing for display sharpness, helped by the sharper 444 PPI display and the cheaper SIM-free price from £499. The sensible choice depends on whether you want the more practical deal or the phone with the more relevant hardware edge.

Over a full contract, the Edge 5G 70 works out around £561 all-in, about £325 less than the Galaxy Z Flip7.
