Motorola has not officially announced a list of devices that will be upgraded to Android 15. However, it is constantly updating the support pages of its devices to include details about the next major software update.
When we published a similar story last month, 22 devices were confirmed to receive the Android 15 upgrade. Since then, Motorola has updated the support pages for many devices, confirming their Android 15 eligibility.
So, here’s an updated list of Motorola devices that are confirmed to receive Android 15 update:
Motorola Razr phones:
- Motorola Razr+ (2024) / Razr 50 Ultra
- Motorola Razr (2024) / Razr 50

You’ll quickly note that many Motorola devices that should be on the list are missing. The most notable omissions are the Moto G64 and Moto G (2024). Both were released this year and were supposed to get the Android 15 update.
The above list isn’t final, as it has been curated based on the devices’ support pages. More devices will be added to the list later. So, if your Motorola phone isn’t on the list, wait for the final list for better clarity.
Motorola is already making the beta version available on many devices, including the Edge 50 Fusion. You can join Motorola’s beta program to have a chance of getting early access to the latest software.
What’s new in Android 15?
1. Private space
Android 15 introduces private space, a separate space for keeping important apps under an additional layer of security. It’s hidden from recent apps, settings, and the rest of the device, thus being the safest place to hide your finance or dating apps.
2. App archiving
Android phones already support app archiving, which lets users uninstall an app while keeping the user data. However, this feature was restricted to apps installed via the Google Play Store. The upcoming Android 15 has this feature baked in, which means it will also support apps installed outside the Google Play Store.
The app archiving feature is designed to save storage by archiving apps you don’t want to use for a short period. When you reinstall the app, you don’t need to sign in again or reconfigure it.
3. Better multitasking
Android 15 improves multitasking, especially on larger devices such as foldables and tablets. It allows you to create app pairs for quicker access to your favorite apps in split-screen mode.
To create an app pair, open apps in the split-screen mode, tap the app icons at the top, and choose Save app pair. You’ll see a new shortcut icon for this split-screen app pair on your home screen.
Android 15 also has a foldable-specific addition that allows users to continue using an app on the cover display after closing the primary (inner) screen without unlocking the device.
You can now pin or unpin the taskbar on foldable and tablets to quickly access frequently used apps.
The latest version of Android also brings real-time widget preview, theft detection, and satellite connectivity support, to name a few. The animations have improved greatly, as has the overall software experience.
