Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Motorola ThinkPhone 25 (8GB + 256GB)

  • Durable yet stylish design with aramid fiber back and MIL-STD-810H / IP68 certifications
  • High-quality pOLED display with excellent color accuracy and 120Hz refresh rate
  • Great battery efficiency and rapid 68W wired charging
  • Practical features like Smart Connect for PC integration and clean, minimal software
  • Inclusion of a telephoto lens, which is rare for its price bracket

What we don't like about Motorola ThinkPhone 25 (8GB + 256GB)

  • Underpowered MediaTek Dimensity 7300 processor compared to rivals like the Pixel 8a
  • Removal of the iconic customizable red key found on the original model
  • Ultrawide and night camera performance are mediocre with visible noise
  • Lack of a microSD card slot and limited onboard storage for professional use
  • Low-frequency PWM screen flickering that may bother sensitive users

Verdict

The Motorola ThinkPhone 25 is a business-oriented smartphone featuring a 6.36-inch Super HD (1220p) pOLED display with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and 3000 nits peak brightness, powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 octa-core processor with 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB of uMCP storage. Key characteristics include its robust, MIL-STD-810H certified aramid fiber and Gorilla Glass 7i build, an IP68 water resistance rating, and a 4310mAh battery supporting 68W wired and 15W wireless charging. Main pros are the exceptional durability, brilliant display, clean Android 14/15 software with a five-year update promise, and seamless Smart Connect integration with Lenovo PCs. Cons include the performance being a downgrade from its predecessor's flagship processor, the absence of a microSD card slot and 3.5mm headphone jack, and the use of a slower USB 2.0 port for data transfer.
