When the Motorola Droid Razr HD arrived in October of 2012, it was the first Droid Razr to deliver a True HD 720P display. The handset also improved battery capacity from the original Droid Razr 4G, which was the slimmest smartphone ever designed at the time of its launch. However, that skinny profile meant average to poor battery life, so Motorola Mobility designers included a significant battery upgrade in the next Droid Razr device, the Motorola Droid Razr HD.
One of the hallmarks of the original Droid Razr 4G smartphone was durability. By building the handset with a Gorilla Glass protected display and DuPont Kevlar back plate, and then constructing the framing out of aircraft grade aluminum, Motorola made a very rugged phone. They even treated the handset with a special splash-proof nanocoating, protecting the exterior as well as the interior, sensitive electrical components. Offered in your choice of black or white, the handset is enjoying a recent price cut at select online retailers.
At the Amazon Wireless store for instance, the Motorola Droid Razr HD is currently offered for around $49 on contract. NFC wireless support is offered out-of-the-box, and the handset provides the Chrome for Android mobile web browser for instant internet access. SmartActions is a power conserving application which allows you to set battery saving rules for your handset, and continuing in the slim theme, the Droid Razr HD 4G Android smartphone measures 0.33 inches (8.4 mm) in thickness.
The large 4.70 inch display on the Droid Razr HD is the biggest you will find on any Droid Razr smartphone, and resolution runs 720 x 1,280 pixels. Pixel density is high, with 312 pixels located over every inch of display space. The Super AMOLED display can be mirrored to an exterior HDTV monitor or screen through DLNA wireless connectivity, and more than 16 million colors are used to render visuals.
A generous 16.0 hours of talk time and 20.0 hours of music streaming is provided from a single charge, and the 2,530 mA battery also offers 10.0 hours of video playback and 6.0 hours of web browsing with 4G LTE speeds. A dual core 1.5 GHz Krait central processor is the cornerstone of the handset’s hardware package, and 16 GB of storage are built-in. 1.0 GB of RAM system memory is on board, and the microSD slot provides storage expansion. The Motorola Droid Razr HD is capable of 1,080P HD video recording resolution via the rear facing 8.0 megapixel camcorder.
