Motorola DROID RAZR (Verizon) hands-on from the NYC launch event

[highwood18]

What are some cool needes APPS for the Razr? help please. Also how do you put music on it.....

[theRecONcile]

I can definately see near-future phones with a colored-lit bar at the top or bottom of the front of the phone when it's powered on. That would look fantastic.

[SJRea96]

Can this stream ITunes? I'm getting a new iPod touch but might be getting a smartphone sometime soon, so I'm wondering.

[IFriendAllForRecord]

Apple is falling behind HAHAHAHAH

[liljohn20002000]

No

[TheBIGman360]

does the battery come out?

[SuppleGooch]

this phone is just a little bit smaller than the droid x and has a new name with processor.

[multinorbert13]

want new RAZR? try giveaway on >> wruu.info\razr

hurry up!!

[crowecanada]

fuck this phone, fuck verizon. fuck them up their fucking asses lol

[thegovna4u]

iPhone doesnt even compare to this. iPhone REALLY.....come on!!!!!

[Brianlovesblanca]

Sexy

[Att8728]

I wish I would have listened  to people !!! SPRINT SUCKS !!!! Verizon I should have stayed with u :(

[00Rebirth00]

Jesus Christ, this phone is FUCKING sexy!

[Trapinnewyork44]

WHO DO I HAVE TO HAVE SEX WITH TO GET ONE OFF THOSE ??

[Nogboger]

hows the battery life?

[yass1014]

Iphone same stile for how many years yea how many stiles have android yea!!! there mad cause in real life android sales more because there way more android phones and plus people get tired of same old stile

[weebleboss]

gotta love the Razr it is crazy awesome, and they have killer deals on it at bit.ly\tNOh9x

[onelove9560]

For everyone who says iPhones suck.. REALLY?? Thats why there the best sellers?? Best for value and re-sale value?? Nobody waits for a droid in line when they first come out.. But apparently iPhones sell out completely for months and are on backorder lol Think before you speak.. Everyone has there own oppinon, But a fact is a fact. Learn the difference.. iPhones =Better made, quality and will last you for years. Droids= a cool phone for about 3-6 months and you WILL have problems with them.

[Nexven]

@onelove9560 So in your opinion what's more popular is better? Kinda like how Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 is supposedly the best because it sells many copies? Basically you're opinion is anything that sells fast is popular no matter if it's bad or not. I guess we can say the pet rocks faze means pet rocks were best and it's fact.

in romania la pretul de 2399ron. reply pt detalii

[jeffhardyfan123able]

kid under me.... do wat ur heart says pple will still live without a brain but not without a hearttt so follow ur heart and get the razr

[iH8MomJokes]

Alright guys, I am just another kid about to upgrade to an awesome phone for a 3-year contract! My decision is between the Motorola Droid Razr and the famous Samsung Galaxy S2. From what I've heard: Samsung has a stronger processor, which in result has no noticable lag or choppiness. I don't fancy the touchwiz 4.0 though but it's still 10x greater than all my previous phones. Razr has a slightly better screen, better quality, and looks better. My heart says Motorola and my brain says Samsung :(

[krisrobbie1]

An outstanding engineering

[TonyCG1000]

Nice phone and review.

[turboa]

Good review. Thanks.

[alikhadr98]

This phone looks like crap and moto blur sucks ass i would prefer the galaxy nexus or the galaxy s2 or even the iphone 4

[xLROx]

Nano coating, Gorilla glass, woven Kevlar back plate!!!!!!!!!!!!! just one question.... Does it still make phone calls?????

[o0oMiCKAo0o]

If you had to chose from the iPhone 4s and Droid Razr which one would you chose?

[cisma001]

@o0oMiCKAo0o im having the same dilemma, i dont know which i should get

[o0oMiCKAo0o]

@cisma001 You too? Its a hard choice!

[cisma001]

@o0oMiCKAo0o yea and im not sure! i have to wait a few more weeks anyway but i hope people will post reviews once its released

[o0oMiCKAo0o]

@cisma001 Exactly, i read so many reviews on the iPhone 4s but you can preorder it now and get in a week and a half!

[ibac09]

with this phone can you talk on tha phone while search tha web i seen it on 4g strateosphere i think i spelt it right

[28adap]

@ibac09 Yes you can..

[Perodigy]

Anybody know of any other Verizon 4G phones releasing in the next couple months besides this?

[JZwerlZ43]

@Perodigy this, htc rezound, galaxy nexus all november

[bL33d77]

iphone is the jitterbug of smartphones u damn sheep.

[d1789]

Hey i have a question... Whenever the display is mentioned on this phone, they say super amoled advanced... Does the advanced part actually mean something like the plus in super amoled meant a normal rgb matrix... Someone please tell me if you know... I'm just curious

[JZwerlZ43]

@d1789 i believe super amoled advaced is the same thing as saying super amoled plus...i could be completelty wrong but thats just what i have heard lol

[TheZ3ROifY]

will this always be a verizon only , or will it be unlocked ones?

[daniyalahmed97]

Dude just admit it man the new iphone is shit and the old iphone was sooooo Not better than the galaxy s2. The s2 is still the top phone till these (droid razr and galaxy Nexus) fully release and still it might be one of the best. Android FTW.Apple sucks balls.

[sando425]

@daniyalahmed97 it baffles me how clueless these other companies and consumers are. it's not the technology (the fastest processor, the biggest screen, the thinnest phone etc.) that makes apple a successful product--it's a perfect merge between genius industrial design, software, marketing and identity. think about it, no one ever brags to their friends that they have the new Motorola phone.

[turbomp301]

@sando425 What makes Apple successful is clueless consumers. Motorola phone users are not douchebags that brag about their phone because they know nobody gives a shit. Tell your Apple friends to stfu because they annoying everyone.

[sando425]

@turbomp301 dude, you're getting pissy over cell phones.. i'm just highlighting apple's business prowress--there is definitely something to say about turning a ubiquitous everyday item into a personally-loved consumer product.

[turbomp301]

@sando425 You talk as if nobody likes their Samsung, Motorola, HTC, or LG phones. They have all created products people love. I'm not being pissy about cell phones, I'm being pissy about your ignorance.

[TheStitchking]

@daniyalahmed97 Iphones Sux till today .. the only Only great thing they got in it is their great picture camera Thats all !!

[khoapho]

I pick Moto material quality over Samsung, but I think I like Samsung UI more than Moto. Moto own UI seems a bit dark and boring looking. Samsung UI makes everything pops out and it looks more entertaining.

[crazygalaxy231]

damn razr took a long break from the market to change and it came back like a BOSS man i mean kevlar dude thats bad ass

[rdknght17]

lets see if the razr can rule the cell phone game once again

[TheAlpineBanger]

I honestly would choose this phone over the Galaxy nexus s

[khoapho]

Can this phone works on T-Mobile or AT&T network?

[davidgalindo07]

Droid x,droid razor,droid bionic. All look the same. Wtf?

[Al3xX256]

@davidgalindo07 are you blind?

[davidgalindo07]

@Al3xX256 you must be blind fuckin idiot get the fuck out

[robertmorton3000]

The Thunderbolt is still better than all yhem phones. Iphone is ass

[JealousPants]

The iPhone is amazing for selling so many units, but I personally want a super thin phone with a big screen and 4G. This will do it for me.

[SuperInvincible14]

i like it/sold!

[Psycholistic1]

I'm impressed. I wonder if now that google owns Motorola they will introduce some of these awesome moto specific features into Android proper?

[ryry0215]

@zonda4life ur points are valid however I currently have a X with 4.3" screen same as razr and I find that any larger and u might as be walking around with a tablet. The resolution is higher on prime not by enough to sway me away from Motorolas durability and dependability. I personally like the design and being so thin it will fit much better in the pocket. NFC sounds great but I have no use or desire to have my credit card on the phone plus google wallet is a great substitute.

[YankiEBubbAAussiE]

The iPhone 4S destroyers: Nexus Prime, Blackberry Bold 9900, and this Motorola Droid RAZR

[MrDonnie54]

@YankiEBubbAAussiE not rly..... 4 million iPhones in 1 weekend......

[newtejedi]

@YankiEBubbAAussiE

Bull shit!

The iPhone destroys all of them!!!

[littleCUBA1]

@newtejedi siiike

[YankiEBubbAAussiE]

@newtejedi And actually im missing one more, the Samsung Galaxy S II but the iPhone 4S has last or early this year technology. The dual core, camera, software, design factor. The really only thing new is Siri (which most people dont understand how Siri just might change how we use technology like Phones, Tablets, Computers, and maybe even cars and TV's)

[jrocktheoneandonly1]

@YankiEBubbAAussiE voice shit been on android for like forever siri is late to that game

[newtejedi]

@YankiEBubbAAussiE

Mate the iPhone 4 even destroyed the galaxy S2

I think that the iPhone has the best operating system of all phones because it's not filled with shit like the androids, I know it hasn't changed but it didn't need to it's still the best phone out there at the moment. Next year android are going to shit themselves when the iPhone 5 comes out :)

[The84andrea]

@newtejedi iphone 5 will be equal at the previous ones, as ever

[TopShelfRippin]

@newtejedi you're delusional

[taeyeonsaga]

@newtejedi your obviously not very intelligent and lacks knowledge to realize what your saying is stupid! I guess your a typical apple fanboy, so delusional into thinking iphone is still the best phone. I guess your just as dumb as your phone. Sigh... why is an iphone considered a smartphone when its not even smart?

[YankiEBubbAAussiE]

@newtejedi You havent prove to me how the iPhone 4S is better than any of these other phone. So all opinion talk your doing is just nonsense.

[gavrilaeugen]

on the right side of camera is a speeker ? it's huge

[volcomdudejr]

Seems pretty cool, I might have to get it.

[t1jordan]

Motorola will be my next device.

[noobwalker93]

God Motorola needs a new design team.

[pennjersey83]

@noobwalker93

I think it looks beautiful for a phone

[systofadown1]

lol my contract doesn't run out until may so there will prob be 100 high class phones to come out for Verizon before then, still a very slick looking phone.

[DaFAMOnDeck]

Might as well bring back the ROKR aswell.....smh

[Crunknicka]

@akocern03 awesome

[ryry0215]

The ONLY thing the prime will have over this is ics (ice cream sandwich) which im sure will just be a ota download just like when the droid x released w/out flash right away. Prime has a 5mp camera really? This phone is far superior to anything out there, esp the iphone!!!! The iphone doesn't even support flash websites!!! Absurd! Facts: november release, 8mp camera, front HD camera, 1080 video, hdmi, 7.1mm thin!, 16gig internal, 16gig sd card, super amoled hd screen! This phone is SICK.

[zonda4life]

@ryry0215 Not the larger screen on the nexus? Not the higher resolution screen on the nexus (which is the native resolution for ics)? Not the fact that the nexus is a pure google phone (IF the razr ever gets ICS it will be a bloated moto blur version)? Not the NFC on the nexus or the lack of obsolete buttons on the bezel? Also, I'd be surprised if the razr gets ICS within the next 6 months except maybe a custom rom ported by developers for rooted users. I just wish the nexus was 7mm.

[taeyeonsaga]

@ryry0215 I agree with the fact that the iphone is shit compared to this and most android phone for that matter. lol but in terms of specs the nexus prime simply beats it. Sure this phone have 8 megapixel, however the quality of image doesnt equal to higher megapixels, rather it depends on the lense of the sensor. The nexus prime will have an improve lense and will top any other smarphone cameras out there. Plus we all know that samsung phones have high quality cameras, look at gs2 camera!

[Crunknicka]

How much RAM?

[akocern03]

@Crunknicka 1 GB

[dubskillz8]

@DroidLocks6971 That is a great idea...

[Mouthmusician]

Haven't heard you for awhile must been on vacation.

[mobileburn]

@Mouthmusician I was in Germany for a month, and then in Toronto for a bit. Been real busy.  Finally getting back in the swing of things.

[etraderx11]

By the time the GSM version comes out, especially the one compatible with T-Mobile's 4G/3G network (if that's ever gonna happen) I would be done shopping for a phone.

[mrwright909]

Not bad.

[pennjersey83]

@jesse1779

You do know you can make android look and operate anyway you want? Idiot

[bmw2go11]

@pennjersey83 agreed

[jesse1779]

it looks beautiful but i just get over how horrible android looks and works

[wssroach]

This is amazing...nexus prime has a hard job...

[DroidLocks6971]

I HAD MY. FRIENDS AS A JOKE THINKING THE DROID RAZR WAS REAL AND NOW IT REALLY IS ... I HOPE THE DIALER IS LIKE THE ORIGINAL RAZR THAT WOULD BE KOOL ...

[afsaldurranihotmail]

browser is choppy man thats a deal breaker for me nexus prime man come on....

[bmw2go11]

@afsaldurranihotmail its choppy as hell because hes double tapping to zoom at a fixed percentage instead of using 2 fingers like a normal person would...

[strataxx]

@bmw2go11 it would be hard to use two fingers when he has only one hand free.

[afsaldurranihotmail]

@bmw2go11 yeah that could be the case but motorola's device like droid 3 and droid x2 are also choppy in the browser they are not as smooth as s2 and iphone smoothness is what u need when u r using the browser

[bmw2go11]

@afsaldurranihotmail well.. theres always opera browser...

and when the razr gets ics update its going to have gpu offloading,, and rendering is going to be ALOT smoother

[afsaldurranihotmail]

@bmw2go11 yeah u can but why would nt i buy galaxy s2 instead of this man to each his own if u like motorola then u buy this have fun

[slantblant1]

Work on the smoothness motorola ...

[skymitch89]

Can't believe that this phone is 7.1mm thick. That is .1mm thinner than the 4th/5th generation iPod Touch.

[aberkae]

Nexus prime baby

[Mraboro]

FUCK THIS PHONE! LETS GO GALAXY NEXUS!

[Brunoxtr]

GSM version... ?

[mobileburn]

@Brunoxtr There will be a GSM/UMTS version, yes.

[Psycholistic1]

@mobileburn Is it confirmed that there will be a GSM version? If so that's awesome! I was gonna write this of but if they come out with a GSM version i'm sold.

[khoapho]

@mobileburn So that means I can buy the GSM version and pop the T-mobile sim card and ready to use?

[Flaashed]

is this a global phone?

[Brett431]

Its great I wish I could trade it for my bionic. But I still love this phone

[vbnetfan]

I just LOVE this phone. Is there GSM slot so I could use it outside of USA. Or is there going to be international GSM version? Thanks!

[friesmadecheesy]

too similar to bionic

[sitbackrelaxxx]

4g??

[thunderman20000]

@sitbackrelaxxx Yeah its 4g

[lrobles787]

It looks like a Droid X. I noticed that is common patern in Verizion phones. Just point it out.

[ciriusblackinfernal]

my next phone ...

[vanskiid]

It's incredibly thin.

[JeniaSepa]

7.1 it's amazing O_o

[412magic]

when does it come out

[jjrosaria2]

Best hardware but It still not as smooth as the samsung galaxy S series.. Hopefully Samsung would make hardware like this

[crumcon]

Michael, does this comes with Webtop UI/OS like Atrix series?

[mobileburn]

@crumcon Yes, it supports the older Lapdock models as well as the new 500 Pro model that was announced today.

[crumcon]

@mobileburn thx im looking forward to your reviews. please review the webtop os also, so we could see the performance of the UI on bigger screen compared to atrix series.

[Chillinpape]

Oh snap Razor Fever all over again

[Damnated6mil]

looks really really good.

[vWaLLBangz]

damn thats THIN.

[Winterhotsprings]

I like the durable look to it. I do wonder how good the camera will be?

[WPTworld]

FIRST,AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[Uberlight2]

@WPTworld :O
