Motorola Razr+ 2023 vs Vivo X300 Ultra

Motorola Razr+ 2023

12MP main + 13MP ultrawide + 32MP selfie — the Razr+ 2023's biggest hardware weakness vs the Galaxy Z Flip 5. Wired notes the cameras 'don't measure up to the competition,' but the cover-screen viewfinder for selfies is a unique strength.

• 12MP main (with OIS) + 13MP ultrawide (108-degree FOV) + 32MP inner selfie — no telephoto camera.
• Wired: 'this comparison is a good example of how Motorola's cameras don't measure up to the competition' — Z Flip 5 wins side-by-side.
• Cover-screen selfie viewfinder lets subjects see themselves while you photograph them — unique feature mainstream phones can't match.
• 12MP main 'works decently well even in low-light' per Phandroid — adequate but not flagship-class daylight quality.
• Ultrawide 108-degree FOV is narrower than Galaxy Z Flip 5's 124-degree ultrawide — meaningful difference for landscape + group shots.

Vivo X300 Ultra

The reason the X300 Ultra exists: a near-1-inch 200MP 35mm main (Sony Lytia 901), a 200MP 85mm periscope, and the best ultrawide sensor on the market, tuned with Zeiss. Reviewers near-universally rate it the best-equipped camera phone of 2026 — with two important caveats: the 35mm default is divisive, and on raw image quality it's only marginally ahead of the cheaper X300 Pro.

• At the center is a 200MP main that's nearly a 1-inch sensor (Sony Lytia 901), backed by a 200MP 85mm-equivalent periscope telephoto — the phone is focused on camera quality and, even more so, video.
• Featuring three extra-large image sensors, the X300 Ultra's uncompromising camera hardware earned a solid rating — but it's hardly better than the cheaper X300 Pro in actual camera performance despite the top-notch hardware.
• I'm not sure I've seen better results from even 1-inch sensors — it's so close to 1-inch and the 35mm focal length makes for more cinematic-looking shots; the 85mm periscope is the sweet spot for portraits.
• It still holds the record for the best portrait-mode photos on a smartphone, especially at 85mm and 135mm; the 14mm ultrawide is sharp edge to edge.

Motorola Razr+ 2023

Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 + 8GB RAM is last-year flagship silicon — the cost-vs-spec trade-off Motorola chose to ship at $999 vs $1,200+ for an SD 8 Gen 2 device. Real-world performance is excellent for typical use.

• Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (4nm, 2022 mid-cycle upgrade chip) + 8GB RAM + 256GB UFS storage.
• Phandroid: 'you're not getting the latest and greatest chipset here since Motorola wanted to price the phone right at $999' — explicit cost trade-off.
• Ars Technica: 'not the best you can get from Qualcomm' — the 8 Gen 2 would have been the right chip for a $999 launch.

Vivo X300 Ultra

Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 plus Vivo's custom imaging silicon delivers flagship benchmark numbers and strong gaming, but the camera-heavy hardware runs hot — sustained stress tests show roughly 60–65% stability and the camera app warms it up fast.

• At the heart is Qualcomm's current flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, supplemented by Vivo's custom VS1 and V3-Plus imaging chips.
• It boots in 16 seconds (vs 21s for the S26 Ultra and 19s for the iPhone 17 Pro Max) and posts an AnTuTu score over 3,800,000, stronger than Samsung.
• In a prolonged stress test it throttled CPU performance to about 60% of peak — in line with other high-powered flagships — and 3DMark stability landed around 63–66%.
• It gets a bit hot after 30–40 minutes of gaming, but with no throttling even past an hour and never uncomfortable to hold; boost mode at max graphics gives around 4 hours of Wuthering Waves on a full charge.
• Native 120fps gaming with smooth/very-high graphics in many titles, with temperature barely crossing 35°C and power draw around 4W in battle-royale modes.
• Under sustained camera/imaging load the front reached ~46.8°C and the back ~45.2°C, and around 47°C the refresh rate drops slightly though not all the way to 60Hz.

Motorola Razr+ 2023

3,800mAh battery + 30W wired + 5W wireless — Phandroid measured full charge in ~1h 20min. Real-world endurance is the Razr+ 2023's weakest area; Android Central owners consistently flag battery as the biggest pain point.

• 3,800mAh dual-cell battery — small for the screen size, Android Central owners: 'the worst thing about this is battery.'
• 30W wired charging full in ~1h 20min per Phandroid — slow vs Galaxy Z Flip 5's 25W (1h 24min) is similar speed but smaller cell helps Motorola.
• 5W wireless charging only — Stuff notes the Razr+ wired beats Z Flip 5's 25W but loses on wireless (Samsung does 15W).
• YouTuber long-term test (Razr 40 Ultra): 'all-day battery achievable for moderate use' with 165Hz refresh + LTPO panel efficiency.
• No charger in the box — Razr+ owners must source their own 30W+ USB-C PD brick.

Vivo X300 Ultra

Vivo grew the silicon-carbon cell 10% to 6,600mAh while keeping the body the same size. Real-world endurance is strong — ~16h active-use score, ~7h heavy screen-on, 13–14 hour days with charge to spare — and 100W wired refills it in under an hour, with 40W wireless.

• Vivo increased the battery by 10% to 6,600mAh despite the phone being practically the same size on paper.
• In our battery test it earned an active-use score of almost 16 hours; 100W charging took it 0–66% in 30 minutes and a full charge in 46 minutes, plus 40W wireless. A charger is in the box except in Europe.
• On the China version I'm finishing entire 13–14 hour days with 25–30% left; the global version keeps the 6,600mAh cell so battery life should comfortably last 12–13 hours of heavy use.
• Getting nearly 7 hours of screen-on time with very heavy usage from the 6,600mAh silicon-carbon unit, with 100W wired and 40W wireless charging support.
• After a 4-hour heavy-usage simulation the phone still had ~45% battery left, which is solid by today's standards, and 100W wired charging takes about 45 minutes to full.
