I still love Motorola’s Razr Plus, but the cheaper Razr (2024) has won me over
It turns out that you don't have to spend more for the best flip phone experience around.

Motorola created my favorite flip-style foldable phone to date when it introduced the Razr Plus in 2023. Not because there was anything earth-shatteringly wrong with Samsung’s previous Galaxy Z Flips or even Motorola’s older Razrs, but because the Razr Plus made its cover screen feel like a feature rather than an extra. It became possible to trust a 3.6-inch display for everything I needed throughout the day and trust it I did. Sure, there were flaws with the $1,000 flip phone, but the overall experience was good enough to make me look forward to the next time I could say “Hello, Moto” to something other than a cheap Moto G device.
Now that time has come, I’m torn — in a good way. The Motorola Razr Plus (2024) has arrived, and it’s a great phone, but I find myself falling harder for the more affordable Motorola Razr (2024). Here’s why I feel that way and whether or not my feelings are strong enough for me to close the Razr Plus for the year.
