  • when you run benchmarks use antutu instead of quadrant standard. it provides more accurate benchmarking imo

  • Razr FTW :D

  • flash CyanogenMod7 on rezound and it will fly likea jet!!

  • It just boils down to personal preference. The HTC Rezound is my favorite phone. The True 720p screen is amazing when watching HD Video, not to mention the Beats Audio is awesome!

  • Rezound is better imo

  • Gorezound

  • I've owned droid ,droid 3 and ill never go back to Motorola

  • I like how you question yourself, and then proceed to inform all of us that you had questioned yourself. REALLY!?! I missed that part...

  • I need more basic nerd technology and real world apps for construction. Any suggestions?

  • rezound - GOOD - beats audio, 720p lcd display, better camera, faster processor? BAD - beats limited to music app? thicker design, don't like the texting keyboard , can't resize widgets? Razor - GOOD - brighter and more vivid video colors, better video camera, thin design , longer battery life, better animated transitions, BAD - photo quality, five homescreens? non-removable battery? lower resolution in fonts (pentile?) Both phones lose in my test. I'll just wait for better.

  • @sigh2infinity Errmmm the RAZR is slim but it's technically too thin and doesn't feel as solid and comfortable as the Rezound.

  • @211Films HTC always and ever has that remarkable touch of art which undoubtedly sense handset's holders such unique & richness experience. Thanks to the King of industrial design Mr. Claude Zellweger. I hope they expand the display size to be up to 5.5 as compared to the Samsung Note. Waiting for that in order to purchase a brand new HTC.

  • @galhomrani Nicely said pal. But I really wouldn't want a 5.5 inch. You see, I'm a picky person. I like things done perfectly. For i.e I don't want $3 for a burger and get some quad-size burger. I want it done enough to make me satisfied. Hence, for me, I feel 4.7 inches is the perfect size for any phone as it isn't too small yet too huge.

  • this wat i like on sense that i dont really care for

  • Can someone explain to me what beats actually does?

  • FTW

  • razr is amazing I have it and one thing I don't like is battery runs down quick but razrvF

  • No one mentioned that the Rezound has SVDO, meaning you can talk and surf at the same time, even if you're on 3G!

  • Paramedic the only reason the battery doesn't com out is because the razor is water resistant and it doesn't freeze up like the htc

  • U can pinch and zoom off with the rzr too idiot

  • @theajpeezy13 fuckin noob idiots reviewing should know that... >.<

  • Souls by ludacris is way better than Dre beats...

  • Ha the razor rapped the rezound

  • resound is soooooooo much better

  • @Hippoman141 no way

  • The razor sucks the battery is permanently installed so u can't take off the back cover the rezound is a lot better

  • rezound is better you know why cause i orderd it already and cant send it back and plus beats duh oh and aron nextime you do an internet test make sure they are on the same server tard

  • Razr FTW!

  • Hehe when you chose Bobby brown i hoped you would take every little step and you did! Yayy ^^ you are great Aaron :b

  • I'd rather have the RAZR

  • RAZR FTW!

  • i think u mustve misplaced them because im sure u cudnt have put the droid razr on top

  • Aaron you must be a moto fab boy for real

  • Htc phone are the best!

  • Wow aaron is so handsome. Are you single?

  • @juliaford2011

    He lost a ton of weight. :D

  • Razr FTW!

  • seems that sharp razors can  evan cut sound

  • Can you please use CF-Bench to benchmark the mutli-core phones? Quadrant is only for single core phones as it only reads results from 1 core. CF-Bench isn't the prettiest but it works well for dual-core phones.

  • Tough tacos!

  • the rezound is so better because its comes with ibeats audio and the razr is easier to break so i think the rezound is better

  • @MrSTOPTALKIN Easier to break? Don't let the thin body fool you :D

  • @MrSTOPTALKIN I am sure a kevlar back plate and gorilla glass mixed in with water proof is just way to fragile of a device.

  • between the zazr and the rezound i went with the htc....so it was my winner. both of them were the same price 1 penny so no biggi.

  • Comment removed

    Wat

  • Man, I think phonearena reviews are better, but nobody beats aarons style. as for the phones, htc sense is the top UI by far (at least I think so), my roomate has an HTC 3D and I have an optimus 2x and I really envy sense. But razr is faster, slimer and by far (at least in my opinion) a much more handsome device, the thing is just gorgeous while the htc is quite generic. I would also pick the razr.

  • @pyro74boy Obviously when a phone launchs on a brand new OS its gonna have bugs. Ur phones software has been up & running 4 months now. Trust me, they will be ironed. Why are u even arguing this?

  • @adamgetzendanner That's what I have been trying to tell fans of the GN all along that a brand new phone running a brand new OS is going to be buggy and that's why I would much rather wait for a while until all the bugs are worked out before using it and for this reason alone I think that the GN is a very overrated device. The fact is if I went with the GN I would have had to downgrade my hardware to do it now this may be okay for some people but not me.

  • @pyro74boy I was say in that either phone is better than the gn. Cuz they're not. that's not even an argument. U may like the rezound more, but just because u like it more, doesn't mean its better.

  • @adamgetzendanner And the same can be said for you that just because you think the Razr is better then the Rezound also does not mean its better as well. My opinion means just as much to me as yours does to you. All 3 of these phones are going to have there good and bad points and you would be a fool to say other wise. There is no such thing as a perfect phone end of story.

  • @pyro74boy I'm not speaking for myself. I'm speaking of the 6 razors & rezounds I play with at my brothers Verizon store. Yes, the rezound DOES lag. Not always, but still does. Especially in the app drawer.The razr has no lag whatsoever. The removable battery & SD card is a plus. And the camera is better. It comes down 2 personal needs & wants.

  • @adamgetzendanner Well I can't speak for you but my own testing of both says otherwise and I have been talking to owners of both phones and many people agree that the camera on the Rezound takes better still shots and takes better pics at night vs DR. The video camera on the Razr may indeed be better vs the Rezound. My Rezound also has no lag whatsoever and until it lags I'm not going to say it does. Both phones have there good and bad points but that's the ONLY THING I agree with you about

  • U do realize that the gn & razor use the same TI chip. & no. Havin a slightly higher cpu doesn't mean faster. At all. Ask anyone that knows tech. Newer model chips, ecosystem, os version. I've played with both the razr & rezound. The rezound lags a bit. The razr is faster. & the gn is prolly faster than both.

  • @adamgetzendanner Speak ONLY for yourself when you say that the Rezound lags because I have also used both and they are both going to be laggy at times because of the UI however I can say for a fact that my Rezound has not been laggy at all and I use my phone a lot. The Razr has no removable battery and the Rezound feels better in my hands then the Razr plus the camera on the Rezound takes way better pics VS the Razr

  • @adamgetzendanner As for the GN it has already been reported by people that have used all 3 phones that the CPU on the Razr was faster vs the GN and the camera on the GN was the worst of all 3 and have you been reading up on all the bugs on the GN it has been so bad that people are already asking for a recall on the GN so its no wonder Verizon is taking so long to come out with the GN. Also in the very first video of the GN take a look at how laggy it was so I disagree

  • @pyro74boy. Please explain how the galaxy nexus has a slower CPU than these phones. Please!

  • @adamgetzendanner Take a look at the phone specs last time I checked a 1.5ghz is a faster CPU vs a 1.2ghz CPU . The people that have used both the Razr and the GN have already said that the GN was slower when compared to the Razr. The GN is a very overrated phone

  • I think 720p is overrated and kind of over kill on a mobile device. Yes 480x800 is lacking, but the 540x960 which we see on motorola devices is very sufficient. I would take 540x960 with super amoled on the razr over 720p on super lcd on the rezound.

  • @MttFrog13 Have you seen the screen resolution on the rezound in person? because these videos do not do justice to just how amazing the Rezounds screen really is. Don't be so quick to judge any of these phones based only on a video.

  • 1:06

  • RAZR ftw! until Nexus comes in...then we'll see who wins...

  • aaron your my favorite phone reviewer out there and i think your great! i just have to know without you taking offense... are you gay?

  • @WolfGangBiggestFan thats a little uncalled for my friend

  • What's up with the no detachable battery thing. What its gay now to take out the battery?

  • I think the galaxy s2 with ics would be the best phone.

  • Bobby Brown @7:00

  • Can someone clairify what he was saying about the beats im confused?

  • Galaxy Nexus

    Is The best phone

    not Rzar not HTC Rezound not SGS2

    just one work

    Galaxy Nexus

  • There is now a Facebook and Twitter about the droids, Its called Verizon's Droid Series

  • Rezound any time baby

  • @pyro74boy . Yea but the galaxy nexus is fully supported by Google no bloatware and no restrictions and it has the first updates for the latest versions of android

  • @TheOsolis14 What you Nexus fans jusr don't seem to understand is that I would have had to spend $300 on the GN and would have also had to downgrade my hardware and when you GN fans are making excuses as to why you don't need removable memory and why you have a poorer quality camera and a slower CPU I will be enjoying a better over all user experience on my HTC Rezound and when ICS 4,0 comes to my phone it will be way less buggy so I don't mind waiting for that update on my phone.

  • Dogfight Razor vs Skyrocket

  • My HTC Evo has gingerbread but I don't have the new market. Help please

  • Even his fingers are skinnier!

  • WHAT DID YOU DO WITH AARON?!!??!?!!?! 

  • IS ANYBODY ELSE AMAZED BY THE NEW SKINNY AARON?

  • tough tacos

  • Aaron is adorable!

  • Man this guy lost a lot of wait good job

  • I had the razr for couple of days I have big hands buy when it comes to texting emailing razr was really uncontroble camara sucks on razr to get the razr fully charge it like 5 hours

    Now I have the rezound this device blew razr away good feel on hand beats audio is awesome battery life last me a long time an I Do heavy usage and I don't have the extended battery at all

  • @spbid27 i could not agree more. The rezound is the first phone ive had in awhile where ive been this impresse

  • Galaxy s2 or galaxy nexus

  • I remember when after the original Razar, Motorola kinda slacked in the cell phone industry, then they made the original Droid and started kicking a** once again!!! also i don't like what has become of HTC's UI, it's just not as pretty anymore :(

  • @pyro74boy well I guess i'm one of the lucky ones cause my battery hasn't been an issue and I use my phone heavily with twitter, Facebook, and YouTube.

    My only gripe admit the razr is its ability to take photos in low light settings. I miss that dual LED flash from HTC. It helps out a lot.

  • @xavi997 I own the razr and there is s little lag in the punch to zoom but I've seen much worse. its nothing to throw a fit about, trust me. the dual core works very nice in this thin device.

  • Comment removed

  • Im gonna get the motorola :D love it

  • Fingerprints

  • I got the HTC rezound cause it came with beats hahh

  • @MrDs47 You made a dumbass choice hahh

  • why is it that he doesn't talk about battery life for longer than 10 seconds.. please explain some of us can't afford to have our phone die at school

  • @WwilliamsIV the nexus is alot better lol, a much better screen with a faster proccesor, did you see the pinch-to-zoom in the web browsing using the droid RAZR? It was alot laggy.

  • Wow The Droid Razr was the only phone I've seen that came close to the Galaxy S2 in quadrant, correct me if I'm wrong

  • Rezound has extended battery win

  • Aaron did you get into a fight? lol

  • AT&T's LTE Is Fast!

  • @Awayze....No....SMH..-_-

  • the razor has no battery pull that killed it for me

  • Why anyone would actually pay for a song on an ANDROID phone when theirs soooooo many free music apps out there is beyond me. Its not like you have an iPhone with restrictions on it

  • Motorola Droid razr fO life fools get in where you fit in.!!!!!!!!!!! Droid razr is the better phone Droid razr is the beast of all machines

  • No freeze on my motorola razr yet so the whining about "what if I can't do a battery pull" seems to not even be a issue. Love my razr.

    I've played with the rezound and I had the thunderbolt. Droid razr is the best phone in 2011. That's including the galaxy nexus which is over rated.

  • @WwilliamsIV Sorry but I don't agree with you about the battery infact I have already been reading on the blogs about people having issues with the battery on the RAZR Verizon has even told me that not being able to take out the battery has already been a issue with the RAZR however the RAZR is still a great phone and would have been my second choice.

    I also agree with you about the galaxy nexus Both the Rezound and the DROID RAZR are the best phones on Verizon.

  • Aaron!!!You're back i thiught you left :(

  • Every time i hear that song i think of Ghostbusters

  • Comment removed

  • tough tacos? -_- really?! smh

  • HTC suck. Apple iPhones are the best. I want Apple to sue everyone for copying pinch to zoom. Anyday now.

  • you never did a Razr video sample....

  • Rezound!!!

  • lol at the way he tosses the razr.. but i like the razr better..

  • I have played with both and I prefer the rezound its pretty sweet. Importing your songs isn't hard it has a beautiful display and lasts me all day.

  • dumb arron stop doing quadrant test and do camera test first

  • Htc rezound is better fag

  • i had an htc hd2 with custom ROM and i had like 3000-4000 in benchmarking apps, and that doesnt mean nothing..Aaron, you used to compare the speed of the phones side by side (like open a page at the same time with both connected in the same wifi network)... or open the same app at the same time and see which one is better, also the user interface its an important thing and you dont compare them.. i like to see your videos but i think you are skipping the important thing of the phone fights

  • he was to busy being picky that he could really finsh the dogfight....

    

  • Aaron, the next time you do dogfights, could you please start the browser test at the same time? They are on the same network and it would be great if you could do a real-time speed test between the internet speeds.

  • Hardware or fast updates?? That is the question...for most of you. I'm getting the Galaxy Nexus.

  • The Rezound is the best phone not the Rzar

  • It's a trade-off. Awesome display, decent battery life >>Rezound

    >>Pentile Display, Awesome battery life>> Razr

    In terms of overall user interface, I think the Rezound beats the Razr. If HTC could make a phone with decent battery life, that would be awesome. Also, no removable battery on a Motorola device is a fail, especially if you plan on rooting and flashing roms to it. I haven't owned an Android device yet that I haven't had to remove the battery at least once.

  • @dn8931 RAZR has a "hard"-reset shortcut, i believe it involves holding the power button and one of the volume buttons (FORCES a reset, so functions identically to removing the battery). i thought the same as you till i learned that

  • I wonder how many people, including myself, opened up another tab and searched phonecat.com right after you said that... haha

  • @ThroattY0gurtt lol there is a site called cellphonecat :)

  • @ThroattY0gurtt It's For sale :D ^^

  • Switching to Verizon tomorrow might get iPhone, razr, or rezound what should I get

  • @iLiKeGAmes117 Depends.... Do u want lots of apps and music choices or do u want 4g.... Its an opinion really

  • @iLiKeGAmes117 Wait for Galaxy Nexus or for a new WP7 handset...

  • I'd have to agree, but by a very narrow margin. I really would've liked the Rezound to be better but it's just, not.

  • DROID RAZR lives up to its name where as the Rezound, doesn't.

  • I prefer the Razr

  • Does the stock Music app on the Rezound even support FLAC files? If not, the Beats isn't even worth it... MP3's don't cut it.

  • @codymws youre an idiot if you think you can tell the difference between high bitrate mp3 and a FLAC file on a PHONE

  • SPEND LESS TIME ON STUPID QUADRANT SCORES, MORE ON CAMERAS...jesus

  • I think its bullshit. Rezound is better. Better in the hand. Better camera picture quality on stills and video. The audio not as good, but still okay. The display is so much more crisp and better(not in color) in most areas. I personally like the design and build and camera a lot. To each their own then. I would recommand the Rezound over razr any day. Motoblur sucks.

  • Like if your still rocking the milestone

  • Agree with you that the RAZR is fast and that the screen is actually quite good. I love mine. Picked it on purpose over the Gnex because I hate plastic phones. The RAZR's build quality is great!

  • Both are ugly

  • The rezound has a lot more pixels to push around that's why it gets lower scores on benchmarking apps.

  • And the Galaxy Nexus beats both. Yes, the camera, too.

  • @smoshrules459 But the Galaxy S II beats all. Better camera and GPU

  • @sk8rked uhh Galaxy Nexus?

  • @Ticomfreak GN has an "okay" camera. I know it has 5mp, and that megapixels aren't everything, but the GS II has a really good camera sensor. As for the GPU, Exynos is a lot more faster than the TI OMAP 4460

  • I like rezound better

  • "i don't want to spend much time on the camera".

    Are you kidding me?

  • can you use the beats on rezound for youtube or videos?

  • Here is something else that many people seem to forget Verizon recommends that you take your battery out of your phone at least once a week and what if you want to get a extended life battery? the RAZR not having a replacement battery is going to be a issue in more ways then one however it still would be my second pick,

  • Amazon is offering the razr and rezound for a penny through cyber monday

  • @pyro74boy refer to my earlier comment about the hard reset on the RAZR... people really need to start researching things before they make ignorant statements :P. also, just to be a dick, "their" =/= "there"

  • @faaaaq I already know of people that are having issues with the battery on the RAZR so your comments mean NOTHING to me Also people that have already tested this phone besides phonedog have already said that not having a replacement battery is going to be a issue so if your point was to make in ass out of yourself you sure did that LOL.. You call me ignorant when the experts agree with me and not with you. P just to be a D*** sorry I;m not a perfect speller such as yourself LOL!!!!

  • Razr is better the rezound is just about beats the display is nice but it's not ambled so it's not a huge difference

  • Noah its at techno buffalo. Arron is doing a fine job to.

  • Somehow i always knew razr would win this dogfight, which is why it is my second choice after the galaxy nexus.

  • Tuff tacos? Aaron stop starving yourself!!!

  • . This made my decision much harder to make

  • if my contract was done, id choose the RAZR over the Rezound. just a personal preference : D but the Rezound is a GREAT phone

  • Galaxy Nexus KILLS Both ( Except For Thinness On Droid Razr's Side).

  • @techuniverse1 Only because of Ice Cream Sandwich. w/o that it'd be a standard 4G android device : )

  • @techuniverse1 Nope the Galaxy Nexus is a very over rated device just look at all 3 phones side by side and compare the specs of each device both the RAZR and Rezound have better specs vs the GN. The only thing that is missing from both the RAZR and Rezound is ICS 4.0 but both the RAZR and Rezound are both getting it. The fact is that if I went with the GN I would have had to downgrade my hardware so I am more then willing to wait for ice cream sandwich .

  • went old school with that song nice

  • ha ha i have an idea When u say dog fight between the two just say ..Who ever wins Gets the bone get it since this is phonedog lol ...u welcome if you do take it
