Motorola Razr 60 Ultra

The Motorola Razr 60 Ultra features a total of three cameras: two on the cover screen and one on the main display for selfies and video calls. The primary camera on the cover screen is of the same resolution as last year: 50MP with OIS. However, the secondary camera has been upgraded from a 2x telephoto lens to a 50MP ultra-wide sensor, while the front-facing camera on the main display has been enhanced from 32MP to an impressive 50MP. If you want, the main cameras also allow you to take selfies, though be mindful of the aspect ratio.Right off the bat, the cameras are quick to focus, capture, and process images, which, although oversaturated, look more vibrant than ever before. The colours remain consistent across both the primary and ultra-wide lenses, and in low light, the handset does well to keep noise levels down and offers good light reproduction. Moreover, portrait mode provides different focal points, each offering nice edge detection and facial detail. As for the upgraded selfie camera, the images appear crisp, but skin tones may not look natural.Apart from this, the Razr 60 Ultra offers several shooting modes, including a camcorder mode, which allows you to fold the smartphone horizontally for better video controls. The phone supports up to 8K video recording at 30fps from the rear cameras. Additionally, the handset features an AI Signature mode that lets you customise images by setting specific tones, colours, and lighting preferences for food, landscapes, and portraits. It is pretty handy, but requires at least five such samples. The smartphone camera also boasts controls like Auto Smile Capture and Palm Capture, which work as advertised.We also clicked comparison shots of the Razr 60 Ultra with its predecessor, the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra, and the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge.DaylightThe daylight photography of the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra shows only a marginal improvement over its predecessor. Images captured with the Razr 50 Ultra tend to be slightly more exposed, whereas the Razr 60 Ultra opts for a contrast-heavy approach to better control highlights and enhance image clarity.The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge surpasses both Motorola Razr smartphones in terms of colour accuracy and overall image authenticity. It delivers near-true-to-life colours with a well-balanced dynamic range. However, while its result is visually pleasing, the level of detail may fall slightly short compared to the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra, especially in shadowy areas.Ultra-wideUnlike the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra, the Razr 60 Ultra and Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge both come with an ultra-wide lens. The Motorola Razr 60 Ultra's 50MP sensor is superior in resolution to the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge's 12MP snapper. Both smartphones offer consistent colour science to their primary cameras.The Motorola Razr 60 Ultra boosts colours to make the images more pleasing and detailed than its counterpart. The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, on the other hand, does not boost colours or oversharpens the details in the images, appealing. The handset, instead, focuses on keeping the images closer to reality.PortraitThe dedicated telephoto lens on the Razr 50 Ultra delivers better portrait performance than the Razr 60 Ultra's computational photography. Last year's Motorola flip phone captures noticeably sharper images with more true-to-life colours. Edge detection and the bokeh effect are comparable on both devices. However, the Razr 60 Ultra produces slightly richer colours, resulting in more vibrant images that may be more appealing to social media users.The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge continues to outperform the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra in terms of accurate scene reproduction. However, the Razr 60 Ultra counters with brighter images and enhanced tones, giving it an advantage in facial detailing. It also offers more precise edge segmentation than the Galaxy S25 Edge. The bokeh effect is comparable on both smartphones.SelfieThe 50MP selfie camera on the Razr 60 Ultra produces more vibrant images than the Razr 50 Ultra's 32MP front-facing camera, thanks to a noticeable yellowish tint. While this gives photos a standout look, the Razr 60 Ultra still trails its predecessor in terms of colour accuracy and detail. The Razr 50 Ultra excels at capturing selfies with more natural skin tones, better exposure of background elements, and finer facial detailing.Compared to its portrait mode, the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra's front camera offers a more balanced approach to colour reproduction. However, it still falls short of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge when it comes to accurately rendering skin tones and overall colour fidelity. The Samsung device delivers more natural results and handles background exposure more effectively, avoiding the overexposure issues seen with the Razr 60 Ultra. That said, if you're after superior facial detailing, the Motorola smartphone has the edge. As a bonus, the Razr 60 Ultra's cover screen allows users to take selfies using the primary camera for even better image quality.Low-light (night mode)Both smartphones enhance long-exposure images in low light for greater visual appeal, but subtle differences set them apart. The Razr 50 Ultra delivers more evenly saturated shots, while its successor, the Razr 60 Ultra, selectively boosts elements like the sky and trees. That said, the Razr 60 Ultra's images appear more realistic overall, with reduced light flare and lower noise levels, resulting in noticeably superior sharpness.When compared to the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, the Razr 60 Ultra holds an advantage in low-light photography with more accurate colour reproduction. It also performs well in minimising artificial light flare and revealing finer details. However, the Galaxy S25 Edge delivers more visually striking images, thanks to its enhanced white balance, which gives photos a sharper and more polished appearance.

At the core of the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra lies the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset coupled with 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB high-speed UFS 4.0 storage. These are the kind of specifications typically found in gaming-focused smartphones. Seeing them in a flip-style smartphone means a top-tier performance without compromises. The Razr 60 Ultra scored over 22 lakh on AnTuTu, a result that not only puts it miles ahead of its predecessor but also places it firmly in line with conventional flagship smartphones.The Motorola Razr 60 Ultra also performed impressively on Geekbench, showcasing its swift processing capabilities. That said, the device may throttle under sustained heavy loads, as evidenced by its performance dropping below 50 percent during the Burnout stress test. This could be attributed to its modest thermal management. The handset did heat up noticeably during both the Burnout test and extended gaming sessions.We tested the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra using our usual titles, BGMI, Call of Duty: Mobile, and Real Racing 3. While the smartphone maintained smooth gameplay and consistent frame rates comparable to others in its segment, it recorded a temperature rise of up to 23.5 degrees Celsius after 90 minutes. That said, the Razr 60 Ultra isn't primarily designed for such demanding use. Instead, it caters to users who prioritise style, portability, and everyday functionality in a compact, foldable form factor.The handset excels at those things, handling daily tasks such as browsing, streaming, scrolling, and multitasking with ease, including seamless transitions between the cover screen and the main display. However, it is worth mentioning that the software bugs might hinder some of those experiences.The Razr 60 Ultra boots Android 15-based Hello UI out of the box, which is clean and packed with features, though it isn't always perfectly seamless. During my time with the device, I encountered some issues with the continuity feature, designed to let you switch tasks smoothly between the main screen and the cover display. This glitch affected even basic, proprietary apps like the Camera. Fair to say, these are minor bugs and can be fixed with a software update. Speaking of software support, Motorola has promised two years of major OS updates and three years of security updates for the smartphone.Moving on, the Razr 60 Ultra offers an array of AI features aimed at enhancing the usability of the device. These include familiar tools like Magic Eraser to remove unwanted elements from photos, and Magic Editor, which allows users to customise images by moving objects, changing backgrounds, and more. Other highlights include Photo Unblur to sharpen blurry shots, and a Photo Enhancer that fine-tunes colours and helps fix expressions.Additionally, the Razr 60 Ultra comes equipped with several in-house Moto AI features, all processed on-device for better privacy and responsiveness. These can be accessed in multiple ways, starting right from the cover screen. Once the phone is unlocked using fingerprint or facial recognition, users can begin interacting with it without even lifting the device, a thoughtful touch for added convenience. Moto AI can also be activated through the Launch Pad, by double-tapping the back panel, via a floating bubble for swift access, or by a long-press of the dedicated, customisable AI key located on the right side of the phone.With the help of AI, users can summarise notifications from popular messaging apps like WhatsApp using the Update Me feature, saving them the hassle of checking each message individually. It can also record, summarise, and transcribe notes with the 'Take notes' feature, curate playlists, generate images, and use the 'Remember This' feature to hunt for saved screenshots, notes, and photos, among other things.While these features are undoubtedly useful, they come with a learning curve and a few limitations. For instance, Update Me doesn't yet offer broad support for summarising emails or notifications from all apps, and Take Notes requires users to unlock the device to access recordings. Moreover, most UI features require an active internet connection, an account, and some personal information. The handset struggles to curate a playlist without your listening habits, although it can still search Google to suggest a list for a specific theme, such as a Bollywood party.If you wish to get more things done on the device using AI, there is Google Gemini that can help you write, learn, plan, and search for anything when connected to the internet.

The Motorola Razr 60 Ultra packs a 4,700mAh battery, the largest ever in a flip smartphone. This significant upgrade contributes to its superior performance compared to both its predecessor and the Galaxy Z Flip 6 in synthetic battery tests. In the PCMark battery benchmark, the Razr 60 Ultra achieved an impressive score of 12 hours and 37 minutes, outperforming the Razr 50 Ultra by over 30 minutes and the Galaxy Z Flip 6 by a substantial two hours and 30 minutes.On our YouTube video streaming test, the Razr 60 Ultra consumed 4 percent battery, another notable improvement. During gaming, the battery dropped by an average of around 7 percent after playing BGMI, Call of Duty: Mobile, and Real Racing 3 for 30 minutes each. This level of efficiency is impressive for a flip smartphone, and I can confidently say the device is capable of lasting a full day on a single charge. Throughout my time with the handset, it consistently delivered around 8 hours of screen-on time, even while using some of its AI-powered features.When it comes to charging, the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra continues to impress. The smartphone boasts 68W charging speeds, and a compatible charger is provided in the box. Using the charger, the device is capable of achieving a full charge within an hour. During our lab test, the smartphone went from 20 to 100 percent in just 40 minutes. The phone even supports 30W wireless charging, which is superior to some flip smartphones wired charging tech.
