Motorola Razr 40 Ultra vs Motorola Razr 70

Our Verdict: There's 30 years between the Razr 40 Ultra and the Razr 70, so the Razr 70 is ahead on most things. The 70 leads on camera hardware with a 50MP main sensor to the 40 Ultra's 13MP, and the 70 packs the bigger battery, 4800mAh against 3800mAh, which usually means longer between charges. If you're on the 40 Ultra, the 70 is a real step up, but only worth it if the changes above matter to you.

If you'd rather pay up front, the 40 Ultra is the cheaper buy at £435 SIM-free.
