The Droid Razr lineup began with the Motorola Droid Razr 4G. That handset was the slimmest ever built when it was launched, but also offered several rugged features that made it a very durable smartphone. Subsequent variations have continued to deliver this durable design, and the most recent in that lineup is the Droid Razr MAXX HD. That handset offers one of the best battery performances of any smartphone, a super slim profile and large high-resolution screen.
And aside from those desirable features, the Droid Razr MAXX HD comes equipped with a protective layer of Gorilla Glass which gives the display chip and scratch resistance. The handset also benefits inside and out from a special water resistant nanocoating. This invisible layer of waterproofing is especially welcome if you use your handset frequently at the beach or poolside. It does protect your Droid Razr MAXX HD externally, but also keeps the sensitive electrical boards and components inside safe from incidental liquid contact.
Surrounding the display is a tough, aircraft grade aluminum framing, and the Droid Razr MAXX HD protects not only the physical phone itself, but all your sensitive personal information inside. Launched on October 18 of 2012, the handset comes equipped with a remote hard drive wipe. If your handset is ever lost or stolen, you can erase its hard drive from any computer with an Internet connection. A personal identification number locking system is also on board, and all your e-mail, calendar and contact information is protected by government grade data encryption.
Offering the Jelly Bean 4.1 operating system, the handset is also attractive in areas other than design and construction. Slim at 0.37 inches (9.3 mm), the Droid Razr MAXX HD offers a large 4.7 inch Super AMOLED screen. Pixel density is at the high end of the smartphone marketplace, at 312 pixels per inch, and overall display resolution runs 720 x 1,280 pixels with 16 million different colors present. Light and proximity sensors help conserve battery life, which combine with the 3,300 mA extended life cell in delivering extreme battery performance.
A full battery charge delivers 21.0 hours of talk time, 27.0 hours of streaming music, 8.0 hours of web surfing, and 13.0 hours of video playback. Powering the handset is a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 microchip package, and the CPU on board is a dual core 1.5 GHz Krait chip. 1.0 GB of RAM memory has been installed, as has 32 GB of data storage. A microSD slot supports external memory cards, and the rear facing 8.0 megapixel camcorder provides video capture at 1,080P HD resolution.
