At long last, the most-awaited variant of the DROID RAZR has been officially launched. That’s right! The Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX can now be availed at Verizon for $299.99 along with a new two-year contract. If you want to buy the phone in its full retail price, you will be required to pay the sum amount of $649.99. As for those who are a bit out of budget, you can still opt for the 16GB model of the original RAZR that you can buy for a very decent price of $199.99.
Compared to the DROID RAZR, the RAZR MAXX flaunts a long-lasting 3300 mAh Li-ion battery that can last for almost 24 hours. The original RAZR, on the other hand, can only last for half a day. It can also be noted that the new variant has been made thicker and heavier with an average weight of 5.1 ounce. Nonetheless, the specs of both handsets are quite similar.

Apart from the said specs, the DROID RAZR MAXX relies on its 1.2GHz Dual Core Processor. The phone runs on Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread with Motorola Application Platform. As for those who are hoping to get the phone with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, you will need to wait for the official firmware update to be rolled. Appearance wise, the smartphone flaunts a sturdy form factor with a Kevlar fiber backlate. You can also take advantage of the handset’s blazing-fast 4G LTE network.
