Nexus Prime not hitting the stage yet, but Motorola Razr is challenging the iPhone 4S already?
Nexus Prime vs (Droid) Razr was one of the articles I posted last week, but sadly the new Motorola Razr with Android operating system is a bit of a disappointment because the device features Gingerbread and not Ice Cream Sandwich, the latest operating system that will hit the stage tonight (local time, New York City 10PM).
According to Motorola Mobility, the new Motorola Razr, without the Droid branding outside US, is powered by Android Gingerbread 2.3.5, obviously the latest version of Android for smartphones but only until tonight. However, there’s a possibility that Motorola will update the new Razr phone’s operating system, earlier than possible because the device features the TI OMAP 1.2GHz dual-core processor, the rumored same SoC used by the Nexus Prime (Galaxy Nexus).
Motorola said the new Droid Razr with Android operating system is a very sturdy smartphone, packed with Corning Gorilla Glass and Kevlar fiber. Motorola explains that the Droid Razr features “water repellent nanocoating that protects the the phone, and even the inside components, against everyday spills.” However, the Motorola Droid Razr’s battery is non-removable.
The Droid Razr is arguably the thinnest Motorola Android smartphone yet, only 7.1mm thin, surprisingly thinner than the Samsung Galaxy S II and the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S. The Motorola (Droid) Razr is also the first Moto device to feature Super AMOLED 4.3-inch qHD screen (resolution of 540 x 960).
Motorola is also claiming that the new Moto Droid Razr can shoot better photos and videos with the device’s built-in “image stabilization technology.” The phone is equipped with an 8-megapixel primary camera and a front-facing HD 720p camera. The new Motorola Droid Razr technically supports Google Talk with video, Skype and the new Google+ hangouts on mobile feature.
Verizon Wireless is the exclusive wireless carrier of the new Motorola Droid Razr, and I should also point out that Verizon Wireless is also the rumored exclusive carrier of the Nexus Prime (Galaxy Nexus) this year. And of course, Verizon Wireless is also selling the iPhone 4S, Apple’s latest and greatest smartphone ever. Verizon getting all the love? Well, maybe. The Motorola Razr will arrive in Canada via Rogers.
The Droid Razr is an LTE or Long Term Evolution phone, capable of delivering faster data downloads and uploads speed. Other features of the device is 16GB of built-in storage, and 16GB of pre-installed MicroSD card slot. The Droid Razr is also compatible with Motorola’s optional accessories like the LapDock and HD dock.
Can the Droid Razr compete against the iPhone 4S? Well, according to Moto, the Droid Razr is their most beautiful phone ever, saying that the Droid Razr is “a true marvel of design, packs strength and smarts into a stylish package, and it is the “thinnest and lightest LTE Android smartphone yet.” Just a quick recap, the iPhone 4S is powered by the dual-core 800MHz A5 chip, iOS 5 pre-installed, 8-megapixel camera and the same iPhone 4 design. The iPhone 4S became a “hot device” due to the phone’s new voice command feature called “Siri.”
Aside from the iPhone 4S, the new Motorola Droid Razr is also facing a serious rival, the Nexus Prime, or Galaxy Nexus — the 2011 Nexus phone that will include the latest version of the Android operating system (for smartphones and tablets), the Android Ice Cream Sandwich. The device will be announced today, 10PM ET, 7PM PT.
