Motorola Razr Fold vs Samsung Galaxy S25+

Our Verdict: With Samsung Galaxy S25+ versus Motorola Razr Fold, the stronger argument is display quality. The Motorola has the useful edge there with a larger 8.1-inch screen, its Foldable LTPO AMOLED panel, and a higher-resolution 50MP front camera. The Samsung still has a role if you prefer a sharper 513 PPI display, its Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X panel, and a lighter 190g body. 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 portability.

Over a full contract, the S25+ works out around £878 all-in, about £677 less than the Razr Fold.
