Motorola RAZR Plus 2024, Larger Cover Display With Software Upgrades, Better Camera, and Moto AI

Today, Motorola unveiled its 2024 Razr flip phone series, which includes the Razr Plus (2024) and the Razr (2024). This launch marks a significant moment for the Chicago-based brand as it celebrates the 20th anniversary of its iconic Razr V3, the ancestor to its current foldable smartphones. In honor of the V3’s release, Moto is reintroducing the popular Hot Pink 3 color, initially launched in December 2005 (the year we officially started Ubergizmo). However, this vibrant hue will be available exclusively for the Razr Plus.  The Razr and the Razr Plus feature the same vegan leather finish but come in different colors.

What’s New – Razr Plus 2024 vs. the previous 2023 model

Compared to last year’s Razr Plus, the major visible upgrades are the larger 4-inch cover screen and the boxier form factor designed to improve the device’s durability. Thanks to the Gorilla Glass Victus, the external display is better protected against scratches and drops.

The devices come with a broad range of new software features, including Moto AI and Google Gemini, as well as new customization options for the external display; read more in the dedicated paragraph.

Motorola also improved the photography experience with a 50 MP primary shooter, a significant change from the previous 12 MP sensor. The secondary camera is now a 50 MP telephoto dedicated to portraits, replacing the previous 13 MP wide-angle macro optic system.

I highly appreciate the introduction of underwater protection with the IPX8 certification. This is an important improvement over the previous IP52, which only protected against limited water spray and dust ingress.

Inside, the Razr Plus gets the latest Qualcomm Soc, the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, a toned-down version of the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, nevertheless a very powerful processor. The previous model featured the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.  On the memory side, the device is equipped with 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256GB of storage.

The battery capacity has been increased from 3700 mAh to 4000 mAh, featuring 45W TurboPower, 15 W wireless charging, and 5 W reverse charging. The 2023 model offered only 30 W TurboPower and 5W wireless charging.
