Motorola is preparing to launch its 2025 phones and the model most likely to attract your attention is the Razr Plus (2025). Moto’s flagship folding phone has previously leaked, showing us what to expect from the design – spoiler, it’s not that different to the 2024 model – but there could be some surprises inside the phone.

The new information comes from the phone passing through TENAA – the Chinese telecommunications certification authority – in the form of the Moto Razr 60 Ultra, which is what the global version of this phone is expected to be called. The details were shared on X by Anvin .

One of the interesting details here is that the battery is said to have a minimum capacity of 4,275mAh, which could be listed as 4,500mAh typical capacity on the spec sheet. The reason that manufacturers often list a minimum figure that’s different to the typical figure is they have to guarantee a particular level of performance. Battery performace changes based on manufacturing, age and environmental conditions.

This would be quite a lift over the 4,000mAh (typical) battery of the Razr Plus (2024). Given that the phone isn’t expected to increase in size, it’s great that there’s going to be a more battery power.

Motorola Razr Plus (2025) specifications detailed

So what do we know about the Moto Razr Plus (2025) so far? The phone is expected to have much the same design as it did previously, weighing 199g and measuring 171.48 x 73.99 x 7.29mm unfolded, so it may be a little thicker than previously.

It’s expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite , so this is going to be a flagship-grade folding phone and a respectable upgrade from the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 in the previous phone. There will be a 6.96-inch folding display and a 4-inch external display, wrapping around those cameras on the cover.

Those two cameras are expected to be 50-megapixels each (main and telephoto), with a third 50-megapixel sensor on the front too, as we saw previously.

The next Motorola folding phone is expected to launch slightly earlier in 2025 – the last model was released in June 2024, but we’re expecting to see the new Moto Razr Plus in April.

We’ll bring you all the details when this phone goes official.

Are you looking for a smartphone with a stylus but aren’t interested in splashing out for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra? Once again, Motorola raises its hand to catch your attention, and in the other it holds the new Moto G Stylus 2025, which costs a lot less than the Galaxy S25 Ultra, but still has the all-important stylus inside.

The built-in stylus can be used with Google’s Circle to Search feature and with Motorola’s own Sketch to Image feature, which uses AI to turn your sketches into AI art for the Moto Note app. It can be used elsewhere on the phone, such as interacting with system settings and apps, and Motorola claims it is 6.4x more responsive than the previous Moto G Stylus’s pen.
