Motorola Razr 40 vs Razr 40 Ultra differences are more than meets the eye
Motorola Razr series has two phones namely the Razr 40 and the Razr 40 Ultra. The latter is the higher-end model. But, let’s compare them to see how much of a difference the Ultra offers over the vanilla model.
Motorola Razr 40 vs Razr 40 Ultra comparison
Let’s start with the obvious: The design
1. The cover screen is larger on the Ultra. It is a Gorilla Glass Victus. The regular Razr 40 has a horizontal domino-shaped screen engulfed by plastic. Even with more glass on it, the Ultra manages to stay lighter at 184 grams while the Razr 40 weighs 188 grams. It is slimmer too.
2. One of the reasons for the heavier build may be the bigger 4200mAh battery inside the Razr 40 while the Ultra has a 3800mAh battery.

3. Another key internal, the processor is better or more powerful on the Ultra. It has got a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset whereas the Razr 40 brings Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chip. The accompanying memory support is also inferior on the vanilla model. It is just LPDDR4x RAM and UFS 2.2 storage whilst the Ultra rocks LPDDR5 and UFS 3.1 configuration.
4. Camera-wise, on paper, the Razr 40 has a lead with a 64MP main camera, 13MP ultrawide camera with 120-degree wider field of view. Meanwhile, the Ultra sports a smaller 12MP primary camera and a 13MP ultrawide shooter with 108-degree FoV.
The Razr 40 Ultra lets you shoot at 4K60 while the Razr 40 offers 4K30 support only.
5. Last but, definitely not the least: the differences in their screens. The Ultra has got a 3.6-inch outer display while the Razr 40 sports a 1.5-inch cover screen. The latter is also less bright at 1000 nits and doesn’t boast the 144Hz high refresh rate on its external display like the Ultra.
