Notable Features of Motorola Razr 40 Ultra
Since the day of its announcement, the foldable phone has received a lot of positive reviews. The device showed some impressive improvements over its predecessor, Motorola Razr 2022. A notable example of such improvements is its external screen which is 3.6″ over 2.7 in Razr 2022. The size of this screen is also on top like a clamshell smartphone with the largest external screen. It beats the likes of Samsung, Huawei, Oppo, etc. in this category.
Besides the redesigned hinge and a more polished look, Motorola Razr 40 Ultra also has some great specs. For example, the screen on the Razr 40 Ultra is 6.9 with a better resolution of 1080 x 2640 pixels. Also, the 120Hz refresh rate screen looks sharper with a pixel density of 413ppi. Although the charging speed is still 30W on this model, there is a slight increase in battery size from 3,500mAh to 3,800mAh.
Cons of Motorola Razr 40 Ultra
As sleek and luxurious as it may look, Motorola’s foldable smartphone has a few areas where the company could have improved. The first drawback of this device is its camera system. Similar to its predecessor, the Razr 40 Ultra also comes with a dual camera setup. However, the company decided to downgrade the camera technology rather than upgrade it. The previous version featured a 50MP main camera while the latest model features a 12MP main sensor.
The second camera, which is an ultra-resolution lens, remains 13 megapixels. However, the company has also reduced the viewing angle from 120 degrees to 108 degrees. It is also worth noting that the 8K video capabilities of the Motorola Razr 2022 have been reduced to 4K on this latest model.
