Motorola Razr 50 Ultra vs Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 5G

Our Verdict: With Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 5G versus Motorola Razr 50 Ultra, the stronger argument is display quality. The Motorola has the useful edge there with its Foldable LTPO AMOLED panel, a higher-resolution 50MP rear camera, and a higher-resolution 32MP front camera. The Samsung still has a role if you prefer its Dynamic AMOLED 2X capacitive touchscreen panel. A bigger mAh figure is useful context, but real battery life still depends on software and chipset efficiency. The Motorola is the stronger choice for display quality, with the Samsung better suited to simplicity.

Buying outright, the Razr 50 Ultra starts at £450 SIM-free.
