How often are updates?

[DigbyTheDog]

I'm debating if I want to get a Motorola RAZR + 2024. (Or any Motorola phone) How often does Motorola push out updates? Is the RAZR + 2024 running Android 16 yet? Which version did it come with? In case it matters, I'm in Canada (all phones are unlocked) and using Rogers.

I have the 2025 Razr+. Motorola is slow with updates. Mine is still on Android 15. And on November 2025 security patch.

However, this is a fantastic phone. I haven't had a Motorola in a long time and this is the best flip phone out there IMHO

The downside to Motorola is they have limited software updates. 3 years of Android updates and 4 years of security updates. I usually get a new phone every 3-4 years so the amount of updates is just right for me.

I generally hold onto my phones for about 2 years.
Have you had other flip phones? The RAZRs are looking really good to me.

So far we have had updates every month with the 2025 series. So far this month we haven't had one but last year is at this time the 2024 series received an OS update to 15.

It's not as bad as people will try to say is what my point is. Is it Pixel or Samsung good, no but it's not bad either imo

I had the Flip 3 and Flip 5. The batteries were not good. The razr is a smoother experience. You can put apps on the external screen. Samsung requires you to put Good Lock and then another plugin to put the apps you want on the external screen. I recommend the razrs

I like Motorola's UI. Very smooth.

My experience in the past with Motorola the update were slow they cater to the India market first.

I get updates every 2–3months . The Razr+ 2024 launched with Android 14 and is now widely receiving Android 15
I would recommend getting the Razr 2025, improved performance, battery life, external display features and eligible for Android 18 OS

If you want regular monthly or even bi monthly security updates Don't get anything from Motorola . My 2025 razor ultra has been stuck on Nov 5 2025 update, That's 3 months and counting for another update.

Don't listen to Sulla, this phone has gotten consistent updates, in fact the Las 3 variant did except for when a new release is being pushed out. This is what is happening now. It started pushing out at the end of February which still allognes with every 2 months. Unfortunately they pulled it to fix an issue. The update will get released again and the update schedule will resume.
