Motorola Razr 70 Ultra vs OPPO Reno 16

Our Verdict: Motorola Razr 70 Ultra has the much larger 7-inch foldable screen, while OPPO Reno 16 uses a compact 6.31-inch AMOLED panel with almost identical pixel density. The OPPO is lighter at 188g, carries IP68/IP69K protection, and has a 6,700 mAh battery rather than 5,000 mAh. Battery capacity remains only one influence on endurance. Select the Motorola for foldable screen space, or the OPPO for the smaller body, lower weight, and stronger ingress specifications.

Over a full contract, the Reno 16 works out around £608 all-in, about £480 less than the Razr 70 Ultra.
