Motorola one of the top mobile phone company in the world has achieved the unthinkable with the RAZR series smartphones. Motorola RAZR MAXX is the new entrant it is as slim as the 9mm still Motorola RAZR MAXX packed a massive battery which can make its competitors rethink about their design and marketing strategy. Its CDMA version is the champion and now it will be interesting to see how the GSM holds its juice and Ice Cream Sandwich.
Motorola RAZR XT910 with 7.1 mm thickness managed to pack a 1780mAh battery but the RAZR MAXX almost doubles the battery capacity to 3300mAh and it’s still only 9mm thin. For comparison’s sake, an HTC One X has a 1800mAh battery, a Samsung Galaxy S III goes up to 2100mAh and even the LG Optimus 4X HD only manages 2150mAh. And those phones have four hungry CPU cores which may drain the battery faster.
The Motorola RAZR MAXX comes with 1.2GHz dual-core CPU, the 8MP camera shoots 1080p footage and the 4.3 qHD Super AMOLED display.
