The Moto Razr 40 Ultra is technically an old phone, but Motorola has tried to breathe fresh life into its 2023 foldable by giving it a dash of peach fuzz: Pantone’s 2024 colour of the year. (Photo credit: Saurabh Singh/Financial Express)

Depending on how you see it, the effect can be either soothing or polarising. The frame gets a matching styling but it’s glossy. (Photo credit: Saurabh Singh/Financial Express)

Underneath, it’s all the same hardware. Though, the pricing has come down. The Moto Razr 40 Ultra is currently selling for Rs 69,999 which is whopping Rs 20,000 lower than its launch price of Rs 89,999. (Photo credit: Saurabh Singh/Financial Express)

The Moto Razr 40 Ultra has a 6.9-inch pOLED display with a 1080p resolution and up to 165Hz refresh rate. The cover display is a 3.6-inch with 144Hz refresh rate. That and the fact that Motorola allows you to run lot many apps on it (compared to say the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 or Oppo’s Find N3 Flip) makes it one of the best implementations ever.

The crease, too, is noticeable only at select angles and does not come in the way when you’re using it. While we’re on user experience, a big bummer is that the Moto Razr 40 runs Android 13 and is yet to get the Android 14 update. (Photo credit: Saurabh Singh/Financial Express)
