The 2024 Motorola Razr+ ( unlocked ) is currently on sale on Woot for $449.99, which is lower than Amazon’s price and even lower than the previous all-time low of $499.99 (according to price trackers ). That’s a significant break for anyone considering a foldable phone . Woot offers free standard shipping for Prime members , while everyone else pays $6. The phone comes unlocked and comes with Motorola’s full one-year warranty . This discount is good for the next three days (or while supplies last).
Motorola didn’t reinvent the wheel with this model, but the Razr+ 2024 has been refined in ways that make it easy to love. The aluminum frame has softer edges, and the vegan leather back keeps the phone from feeling slippery. It fits neatly in a pocket when folded, and the redesigned hinge feels more durable while still being easy to open with one hand. Plus, an IPX8 rating means it can withstand being submerged in water, which is a big step up from last year’s splash-only protection. The outer 4-inch OLED screen is actually useful, with enough brightness for checking email or running apps outdoors, and the inner 6.9-inch display is sharp, fast, and bright, even if the center crease is still visible when the screen is off, according to this PCMag review .
Performance is where the 2024 Razr+ feels like a real upgrade. The Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, paired with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, keeps everything from simple scrolling to heavier gaming running smoothly. Battery life is rated at around 14 and a half hours (which is a few hours longer than the Samsung Z Flip 5 ), and it charges quickly with a 45W power brick, though you’ll need to buy your own as one isn’t included in the box. Wireless and reverse charging are built in, though, which adds some flexibility. The cameras, however, are a mixed bag. The 50MP main lens does a good job in bright daylight, but the telephoto lens reportedly produces noisy shots, and low-light photos aren’t up to par with what you’d get from Samsung or Google flagships.
