Moto Razr 40 Ultra’s key feature is its 3.6-inch external display. This is the largest cover screen on a clamshell foldable to date and features a 10-bit AMOLED panel with 1066 x 1056 px resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate and Gorilla Glass Victus for protection. It comes with plenty of interactive wallpapers and bespoke clock faces but it’s not just about the looks.
As with past Razr foldables,
you are free to do just about anything on the cover screen - watch a YouTube
video, get navigation details in Google Maps, reply to an email all without
unfolding the main screen. Razr 40 Ultra feature a 6.69-inch FHD+ LTPO AMOLED
main display with a 165hz refresh rate, HDR10+ support and 1,400 nits peak
brightness. The Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG) panel features five-layer protection and
no gap when closed thanks to the teardrop hinge structure. There’s a 32MP front
facing cam embedded at the top of the display and a side-mounted fingerprint
scanner.
The frame on the Razr 40 Ultra
is made from 7000-seires aluminum while the back features Gorilla Glass Victus
on the Infinite Black and Glacier Blue colors and vegan leather on the Viva
Magenta colorway. Razr 40 Ultra is just 6.99mm thin when unfolded and 15.1mm in
its folded state while weighing 188 grams. The phone also features an IP52
water-repellent coating.
Motorola reduced the hinge
components to 85 parts which should help with longevity and endurance. The
phone can be propped up on its back in multiple angles for content capture.
Moving to the cameras, there’s a 12MP main sensor 12MP (f/1.5, 1.4μm native
pixels) with OIS and 13MP ultrawide module (f/2.2, 1.12μm pixels) which also
doubles as a macro cam.
The software side is covered
by Android 13 with Moto MyUX interface on top and Ready For desktop interface
when connected to an external monitor. Motorola is promising 3 OS updates. Razr
40 Ultra features a 3,800 mAh battery with 30W wired charging support and up to
5W wireless charging. It comes in Infinite Black, Glacier Blue and Viva Magenta
colors.
