No matter what newer smartphones come out, Apple still retains a dedicated group of fans who won’t budge for anything. At what seems to be the height of the smartphone wars, Motorola has just released the successor to its Droid Razr. Welcome the Droid Razr Maxx, which is bigger but is better than the Droid Razr and practically a baby with its release last January 26, 2012. Today, we’ll see how the iPhone 4S stands up to this new release. Design and Display Slightly thicker than its predecessor, the Droid Razr Maxx has a thickness of 8.99 mm. The Droid …
Motorola has just released the changelog for the impending update that will be rolling out to your Motorola Droid Razr or Razr Maxx in the next few days, to members of the Motorola Feedback Network. This list is a bit different from the one that was recently released by Verizon. Hopefully this update will be out to everyone in the next week or two. We will keep you posted. Full list below. Software Update for the DROID RAZR and DROID RAZR MAXX by MOTOROLA Introduction We are pleased to announce the new software update for DROID RAZR and DROID RAZR …
Since the first talk at CES, Android Authority has been following the Droid Razr Maxx for some time now. Released on January 26, the Maxx sports an impressive 3300 mAh battery. That’s enough for around 21.5 hours of talk time! Now that is quite special, however there isn’t much difference between the Maxx and its past brother, the original Razr. With models of the original Razr now offering white and purple, along with the previous option of black stirs up a deep battle. Hardware For hardware it is essentially all the same. It contains the same TI OMAP, 1.2GHz dual-core …
Yes, we know. The iPhone is the best selling smartphone in history. Does that make it the best? Does it have the latest and greatest technological innovations inside? Sure, it’s a beautifully crafted device for people that love what technology can do, but perhaps don’t necessarily want it to be too technical. It’s difficult to sum up why it is so popular without being offensive or obtuse, but really, it boils down to marketing, ease of use, and these two things contribute to its overall appeal. That being said, it won’t remain like this forever. Apple has a knack for adding …
I hope you guys are ready for a quick comparison of a couple of the most highly desired Android phones currently on the market. Let’s start off by introducing both the phones. INTRODUCTIONS Droid Razr Maxx In Corner 1 we have “the rookie” the freshly released Droid Razr Maxx who was released on the market on January 26 2012 by Verizon. The Razr Maxx was born from the brains of a Motorola engineer who thought of packaging a higher capacity battery onto the original Droid Razr by Verizon. The Razr Maxx almost never became as there was considerable hesitation from both Motorola and Verizon …
Droid-Life has put up an interesting article while they were in the midst of reviewing the Droid Razr Maxx which was released today at Verizon Wireless, that both the Droid Razr and the new Droid Razr Maxx are running the exact same software versions, including the same version’s of Motorola’s Application Platform – also known as Moto Blur. So in theory, OTA’s and ROM’s that are made for one of these devices should work perfectly on the other device. All the specs and features are the same except for the massive battery on the Droid Razr Maxx. We borrowed the …
The Droid RAZR certainly turned some heads back in November. It was probably the most innovative phone I saw all year design and build wise, thanks to its ultra-thin 7.7mm kevlar body. How can many people can say their phone is protected by kevlar? The only reason it didn’t reach its true potential is because a day later the Galaxy Nexus stole most of its thunder, not necessarily because of the hardware or because of its design, but because it had stock Android 4.0. By comparison, the RAZR had what looked like a year old OS, even if it had …
Some great news for all you fans of the Droid RAZR, we’ve got a release date according to Motorola’s website for the newest member of the Droid Family. The Droid RAZR MAXX will be available on January 26th. The price on contract will be $299, which is the normal price for 4G LTE flagship devices on Verizon at this point. For those of you not family with the Droid RAZR MAXX, where have you been? The Droid RAZR MAXX has all the cool features of the original Droid RAZR but it adds a massive 3300mAh battery which does make the …
Two of Motorola’s big announcements at CES 2012 were the Droid 4 (D4) and the Droid Razr Maxx (DRM). These two phones are similar in many aspects, but they are separated by one key factor: the keyboard. Without looking at any other features of these phones, this can be the ultimate decision maker for many. But if your looking beyond this, there are some other differences that may sway you one way or the other when deciding which to buy (these I will cover below). The Specs Cpu and GPU Processors/Ram The D4 and the DRM each have the TI …
Yesterday Verizon and Motorola finally put an end to the many rumors we have seen and heard about the Droid 4. Announcing it along with the Droid Razr Maxx, and the Droid Razr coming in purple. Well this newly leaked price map shows us that the Droid Razr will be dropped down to $199 – not that big of a surprise, and that the Droid 4 will be on sale for $249. The $249 price tag is a bit surprising to me, since almost all of Verizon’s 4G LTE devices have been carrying a $299 price tag, but hey who’s …
We had a chance to get up close and personal with Verizon and Motorola’s Droid Razr Maxx. I must say it’s even better then the Droid Razr, while the only main difference is the huge battery that’s in the Droid Razr Maxx, and it’s bump up to 32GB of memory, it’s worth checking out. The Droid Razr Maxx is still just as thin as the original Droid Razr, but at CES it lost it’s title as the world’s thinnest smartphone. But we knew that was going to happen at CES didn’t we? We’ve got tons of pictures for you down …
Yesterday was a very busy day in the world of Tech, I’m sure you noticed here at Android Authority. After all we had 19 brand new devices announced yesterday by LG, Motorola, Samsung, Pantech, Sony, ASUS, and Lenovo, and CES is not even officially under way until today. Out of those 19 devices, AT&T announced 6 of them! Just to recap them so we know you didn’t miss anything, let’s go down the list – keep in mind most of these do not have prices or specific release dates yet. LG Spectrum: With a 720p and 4.5-inch display and sporting …
