Motorola Razr 50 Ultra vs Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6: design
Neither of the devices comes with any major design overhaul. The design of the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 are the same as those of their predecessors. However, both devices have their USPs.
The Motorola Razr 50 Ultra features a ‘Teardrop Hinge,’ which the company claims to be the thinnest and lightest hinge on a clamshell foldable phone. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 is the first clamshell foldable to feature a vapour chamber for cooling during heavy usage.
However, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 has an IP48 rating, offering better protection against dust and water splashes than the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra’s IPX8 protection. Regardless of which clamshell foldable you pick, both devices have a premium build.
Motorola Razr 50 Ultra vs Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6: display
The Motorola Razr 50 Ultra is a clear winner in the display department, both the main and cover screen. For the main screen, you get a bigger size, better LTPO panel, and smoother 165Hz refresh rate with the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra. However, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6’s Dynamic AMOLED panel should deliver a better viewing experience than the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra’s pOLED screen.
In the cover display department, the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra offers a superior screen in every aspect. It has an FHD+ resolution, advanced LTPO technology, a smoother 165Hz refresh rate, and a bigger screen estate. In comparison, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6’s cover screen still only offers HD resolution and a standard 60Hz refresh rate.
Motorola Razr 50 Ultra vs Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6: performance
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 has a slight edge over the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra, thanks to the top-of-line Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC at its helm. In our testing, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 easily outperforms the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 on all benchmark platforms.
However, that doesn’t mean that the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra isn’t a capable device. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 at the heart of the device will still provide robust performance and handle everything equally well as the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 would. Neither of the devices should disappoint you in terms of performance and should handle anything you throw at them well enough.

On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 features Samsung’s OneUI overlay, offering additional customisation options and Samsung-specific features. However, it comes with some pre-installed apps and features tailored to Samsung’s ecosystem.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 also offers superior long-term software support with an extra year of OS updates and security patches than the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra. Samsung promises four years of Android releases and five years of security updates, while Motorola offers three OS updates and four years of security patches.
