Justin Willett from the Columbia Daily Tribune shares why he believes the Motorola Droid Razr is a win.
Motorola is harkening back to its flip-phone heyday in reviving the Razr name, and the company appears to have a hit on its hands.
The Motorola Droid Razr, available since Friday from Verizon Wireless, is a razor-thin smartphone that aims to out-thin last month’s thinnest smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S II. The Razr definitely feels sturdier than the Galaxy, which had a flimsy plastic back panel covering the battery compartment. The Razr features a Kevlar backing (not removable) that provides a nice nonslip texture for gripping.
Some reviewers say battery life is disappointing on Verizon’s 4G LTE network. That’s not surprising because the higher-speed network seems to drain batteries faster. However, Columbia doesn’t have LTE. The Razr’s battery lasts plenty long running on Verizon’s steady 3G network.
