The new $1,500 Razr Ultra 2026 is one of the most controversial phones of the year — here's why
The Motorola Razr Ultra 2026 has sparked controversy with its $1,499 price tag, a $200 increase from the previous model, despite minimal hardware upgrades. While it features a slightly larger silicon-carbon battery and faster charging, most core specifications remain identical to the 2025 version.
