Casper Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 I sense a new phone in Ben's future. lolMost likely not, but I'm in a bit of a tiff with AT&T and their supposed HSPA+ speeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted October 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 This should answer the questions above:"Android 2.3 Gingerbread comes pre-installed on the Droid Razr, but representatives told Ars that the phone will be able to upgrade to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, which is launching later tonight. Preorders for the Droid Razr will begin October 27, with the handset launching in November priced at $299 for 32GB of storage."That's this year as I read it Ben.

kawi kid Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 This looks pretty interesting. I love my x's big screen and don't think I could go back to a smaller oneever again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any clue what the MSRP is?Most likely not, but I'm in a bit of a tiff with AT&T and their supposed HSPA+ speeds.I have a coworker who's a tech junkie. He has a 4G service with VZW and he can pull almost 60Mbps down and 20Mbps up. It is truly more than 2x as fast as my TWC speeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReconRat Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Might go for it in a year or so. If 4G gets around, and I get tired of this DroidX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjascott Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 ok so...razr or bionic, I'm gettin a new phone on black friday, which one do you recomend and why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohdaho Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Amazon is having a Verizon and AT&T phone sale...almost all phones are only 1 cent with new service...including the droid Razr which is a smoking deal. If I hadn't just added my gf to my AT&T plan with a 4s I would jump on the droid razr now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 I hate how they treat existing customers like second class citizens.. Razr reviews I've read make it seem ok, I haven't read how people are dealing with any hard reset issues (since the battery is sealed).I've kinda been waiting for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus with ICS, but I'm reading there's a lot of bugs with it.

r1crusher Posted November 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 Well I bit the bullet this evening and upgraded to the new Razr. Couldn't not do it really. Hhgregg had the phone for 299 less my new for 2 of 50 and less another in a 100 Visa gift card so I only paid 169 after taxes. I wasn't going to do it but didn't think I would see as good a deal even at Xmas. So far very happy with it. Just have to get used to not having HTC Sense any more.

Likwid Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 I've always been a fan of Motorola phones, I had the original Razr, MotoQ, and MotoQ9C, all were great devices and I was actually going to wait for the new Razr before I upgraded but since it was Verizon only I passed.Let me know what you think of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohdaho Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Guessing you missed out on amazon's 1 cent deal?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykill Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Guessing you missed out on amazon's 1 cent deal?!?!It was only for new contracts not upgrades on the razr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Right, Mike. This deal was good for either new contracts or upgrades. So far the phone is fast, a lot faster than my old single core. The screen is fantastic, so much so the wife tried streaming Netflix to hers and it was actually easy to watch. I don't think it would have been as smooth if we weren't in a 4G area though but that's to be expected. I have absolutely no complaints about it at all at this point. I'm usually very good with my phones and this one will probably last a good long time the way it's built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
