Motorola Razr 40 Ultra

Pre-orders for Motorola's new flagship foldable - the Razr 40 Ultra - are now live, and there's a rather generous bonus offer for early adopters. If you pick up pre-order the Razr 40 Ultra by July 9, you'll get a bonus pair of Bose's QuietComfort Earbuds II, valued at $429.95.

The QuietComfort Earbuds II are not only Bose's latest pair of wireless earbuds, they're our pick for the best noise-cancelling earbuds on the market right now. The bonus Bose can be redeemed once your Razr 40 Ultra arrives through the Motorola website. You'll have until September 30 to do so. 

You can pre-order the Razr 40 Ultra directly through Motorola's parent company, Lenovo. It launches on July 10, will set you back $1,499, and comes in a choice of Infinite Black, Glacier Blue, and Viva Magenta. 

The biggest new feature on the Razr 40 Ultra is a much larger 3.6-inch external display, which is the biggest we've seen on a flip-style foldable. It edges out the 3.26-inch display on OPPO's Find N2 Flip and is significantly bigger than the 1.9-inch cover display on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4.

From a practical perspective, the larger size allows you to run full apps on the Razr 40 Ultra's external display. It's even big enough to load up a keyboard, so you don't need to unfold the phone to reply to a message. You won't see much else on the screen when the keyboard is up, however.

Other key specifications include a 6.9-inch 1080p+ display with a 165Hz refresh rate, a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, IP52 splash-resistance, and a 3,800mAh battery. In terms of cameras, the phone has a 12MP primary lens, 13MP ultra-wide lens, and a 32MP selfie camera.

Motorola will provide the Razr 40 Ultra with three major operating system upgrades and four years of security updates.
