With the official debut of the new Motorola Droid MAXX and its purported 48 hour run time, we thought this would be a good time to check out the older sibling of that handset, the Motorola Droid Razr MAXX HD. That phone delivers up to 32 hours of all-around use according to Motorola, and currently sits as the King of battery performance in the mobile marketplace. Also, for comparison’s sake, remember that the new Droid Max will probably retail around $299, while the Droid Razr MAXX HD delivers more than twice the average smartphone battery talk time for only $99 on contract.

Motorola went as far as to test the actual touch display uses powered by a full battery charge, alerting us that up to 4,283 single-charge taps, swipes and pinches are possible on the touch screen.
