Verizon’s 4G/LTE Motorola Droid Razr arrives November 10
Verizon is adding to its Motorola Droid brood with the Droid Razr on November 10, but how do you tell two 4G/LTE smartphones apart?
While they both have a 4.3-inch display, the Droid Razr is slightly more powerful with its dual-core 1.2 GHz processor, has a higher quality Super AMOLED Advanced screen, and hence a higher price tag. The Droid Razr dares to command $299.99 with a two-year contract (or $650 without), while the Bionic is slightly more economical at $250.
For an extra $50 over the Droid Bionic, the Droid Razr comes with the latest build of Gingerbread (Android 2.3.3 but will be among the first to get Ice Cream Sandwich), a higher resolution 1.3-megapixel front camera that can shoot 720p HD videos, and is thinner and tougher. The Droid Razor’s back cover is made of Kevlar, which is a steel substitute that is used in body armor according to Wikipedia, and its “water repellent nanocoating” means it can withstand some water (but I wouldn’t go swimming with it to test my luck).
Other specs are below:
- Display: 4.3” 540×960 Super AMOLED Advanced touchscreen
- RAM: 1 GB DDR2
- Internal Storage: 16 GB with a 16 GB micro-SD Card pre-installed
- Connectivity: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Version 4.0 LE+EDR, DLNA
- Ports/Connectors: 3.5 mm headphone jack, HDMI (for mirror mode), USB 2.0HS, micro-SD Card slot
- Cameras: 8 MP rear camera; 1.3 MP front camera; LED flash
- Sensors: aGPS (assisted), eCompass, sGPS (simultaneous), GLONASS
- Battery: 1780 mAH Li–Ion
- Battery Life: Voice = up to approximately 12.5 hours
- Dimensions: 5.15″(h) x 2.71″(w) x 0.28″(d)
- Weight: 4.48oz
Features that are unique to the Droid Razr:
- Smart Actions app: Helps you conserve power and maximize each charge
- MotoCast app: Remotely stream or download files from your computers to your phone
- Mobile HotSpot: Tether up to 8 other devices on 4G, or 5 on 3G to this phone

Still prefer the Droid Razr over the slightly cheaper Droid Bionic? Verizon is taking pre-orders for the Droid Razr online now for release on November 10, which means it will definitely arrive under someone’s tree this Christmas — as long as you don’t confuse the two Droids…
