Memorial Day in the United States is celebrated this Monday, May 27, and is a day to honor and remember America’s armed servicemen and women who have given their lives while serving our country. And the three day Memorial weekend also happens to coincide with a recent and substantial price drop on the Droid Razr MAXX HD. That phone runs on the Verizon Wireless network in the United States, and delivers NFC support, the Google Chrome for Android mobile web browser, and what is probably the best battery performance of any 4G smartphone.
The Motorola Droid Razr MAXX HD is available for a reduced sale price now starting at .
Launched on October 18, the Razr MAXX HD can access not only the Verizon network, but also wireless systems in more than 205 countries across the globe. The handset is security conscious, providing a remote hard drive wipe, PIN lock and government grade data encryption. Durable physically as well as secure, the Droid Razr MAXX HD provides a rugged DuPont Kevlar back plate, aircraft grade aluminum framing, special nanocoating which provides splash-proof protection, and a scratch resistant layer of Gorilla Glass.
The original Droid Razr arrived as the skinniest handset ever made, and this relative is also slim, measuring just 0.37 inches (9.3 mm). Slightly heavier than the typical 4G smartphone at 5.54 ounces (157 g), the Droid Razr MAXX HD owes much of that weight to the oversized, extended life 3,300 mA battery that delivers up to 32 hours of all-around performance according to Motorola. That Goliath battery can charge in as little as four hours, and by personalizing the optional power saving SmartActions application, some impressive performances are available.
Up to 21.0 hours of talk time can be achieved from a single charge, as well as 13.0 hours of video playback, 10.0 hours of streaming video and an impressive 27.0 hours of streaming music. You can surf the web for 8.0 hours, or enjoy 8.0 hours of voice guided GPS navigation. That single charge can also last as many as 15.5 days and standby mode. A dual core 1.5 GHz CPU powers the Droid Razr MAXX HD, which also offers 1.0 GB of RAM memory, a generous 32 GB of data storage, and a microSD slot.
The rear facing camcorder is capable of video capture at 1,080P HD resolution, and joins a front facing chat cam in the camera combo. The Droid Razr MAXX HD has a large 4.70 inch Super AMOLED display, with a resolution of 720 by 1,280 pixels. More than 16 million individual colors are used to render visual displays, with DLNA and microHDMI video out options present.
The Motorola Droid Razr MAXX HD can be purchased at a discounted price tag now starting at .
