Motorola Razr – THINking ahead

Posted in Handset News about 1 months ago by Robert - Comments (3)

You may think you have heard of the Motorola Razr before in the past due to the Motorola model by the name of Krzr in the past. Don’t let the name fool you as the Razr is far superior and packed with power.

It’s powered by a Dual Core processor and shows signs of becoming a potential smartphone top contender. It uses Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread) operating system. The 8MP camera and HD recording that the Razr has is also becoming a trend with all Smartphone highflyers.  There is also a very impressive feature called Smart Actions. This allows you to set up your phone so that for example your phone goes onto silent when you get to work, it recognises the address and does this for you, great for any embarrassing moments when your phones should be off. This can be very useful and there are more Smart Actions to be utilized.

MotoCast is a great feature which comes in the form of an App and allows you to stream from your computer or access files on your computer, no matter where you are. You need Wi-Fi or a data bolt on to do this, but still a cool feature.

The Motorola Razr isn’t just an incredible smartphone with all the features competing with the others. It also has something to make it stand out, which is the splash guard that protects the phone in every area. When you spill water or other liquids on the handset then your phone is protected by the splash guard on the handset. This also helps the screen stand up to any scratches or scrapes which may accidently happen. I find this impressive as there aren’t many smartphones that can say they have this feature. Phones in the past with any protective splash guard and screen protection usually struggle due to low specs. It’s not the case for the Razr and this gives you some piece of mind of any accidents that may occur. This is something you always worry about due to the value of smartphones today.

I’ve never been a fan of Motorola, but looking at the specs and the look of their new creation then it’s hard not to be impressed and eager to see how people react to this. It’s another Android/Motorola double team which has produced the best Motorola handset to date. It looks very promising and exciting for Motorola and gives users another option. The protection from Splash guard makes it more appealing that the rest.

  1. I remember the original RAZR. This is a huge improvement.
  2. Yes Bill, I had the flip Krazr and I used to love it. It's amazing how quickly technology is moving. Soon this device will seem old haha
  3. I just have visions of having it in a back pocket when I sit down. Let's hope they thought about that at the design stages...
