Samsung is currently the leader of the foldable phones market, but several other manufacturers are challenging it with their amazing flagship phones. Xiaomi released the Mix Fold 2 to take on the Galaxy Z Fold4, while Lenovo came up with the Motorola Razr 2022 in order to compete with the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4. Both these devices are clamshell foldable phones sporting flagship-class specifications and small external displays, but which one is the best? In order to answer this question, given that these handsets share the same form factor and even the same price range, we decided to publish a comparison between the main specifications of the Motorola Razr 2022 and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4.

Design

As already mentioned, both these handsets are clamshell foldable phones: while unfolded, they look like traditional smartphones, but if you fold them, you can halve their dimensions and let them be extremely compact. This is the distinctive advantage of these devices. I personally prefer the design of the Motorola Razr 2022 because it reminds me of the older and iconic Razr feature phone and it has a wider external display. But you should note that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 is thinner and it is waterproof thanks to the IPX8 certification. The Samsung foldable phone has a better build quality, it has a glass back protected by Gorilla Glass Victus+, and it supports eSIM in all of its variants.

 

Display

The displays are definitely the most important thing about these phones and after judging the specifications, I would personally prefer the Motorola Razr 2022. The foldable display looks more interesting: it is a P-OLED panel able to show up to one billion colors with a diagonal of 6.7 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 144 Hz refresh rate, and the HDR10+ certification. It is a very nice screen not only because it is foldable, but also for its image quality. And it includes an in-display fingerprint reader. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 has a 6.7-inch panel with a Full HD+ resolution, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and the HDR10+ certification, as well as an in-display fingerprint scanner. The Motorola Razr 2022 looks more convincing even when it comes to the external display: a wider G-OLED panel with a diagonal of 2.7 inches and a resolution of 573 x 800 pixels. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 has a smaller 1.9-inch external display with AMOLED technology and a resolution of 260 x 512 pixels, protected by Gorilla Glass Victus+. Anyway, you can use both these displays to shoot selfies and use several features of the phones.

 

Specs & Software

The Motorola Razr 2022 has the best hardware. Both the handsets are powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 mobile platform by Qualcomm built with a 4 nm production process. It is a chipset with an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex X2 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.19 GHz, three Cortex A710 CPUs running at 2.75 GHz, four Cortex A510 CPUs running at 1.8 GHz, and an Adreno 730 GPU. The Motorola Razr 2022 features a higher amount of RAM: 12 GB, while the Samsung stops at 8 GB. The maximum amount of internal storage is exactly the same: up to 512 GB. The foldable phones run Android 12 out of the box but are customized with different user interfaces based on Android 12. Currently, the One UI by Samsung looks more complete.

 

Camera

On paper, the camera department of the Motorola Razr 2022 is superior to the one found on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4. It has a dual rear camera including a 50 MP main sensor with OIS and a 13 MP ultrawide camera with a FOV of 121 degrees. The Samsung has two 12 MP sensors: the main camera with OIS and an ultrawide lens. The Samsung has a better front camera: a 10 MP sensor that can record videos with a 4K resolution.

 

 

Battery

Samsung managed to include a bigger battery on its phones, even though it has a slimmer design. With a capacity of 3700 mAh, the Galaxy Z Flip4 should provide longer battery life and, unlike the Motorola, it features wireless charging. On the other hand, the Razr 2022 charges quicker thanks to 33W fast charging. Do you prefer wireless charging or a faster charging technology on a phone?

 

Price

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 is available in the global market with a starting price of $750/€750 (prices vary depending on the market), while the Motorola Razr 2022 is only available in China with a starting price tag of €860/$860. Now you know all the differences: which one do you prefer?
