Motorola Droid RAZR is new thinnest smartphone

Listen to article

Before the Samsung Galaxy Nexus was unveiled, Motorola took the spotlight earlier by introducing the Motorola Droid RAZR, probably the thinnest smartphone in the world at 7.1mm.


Motorola Droid RAZR specs:
4.3″ Super AMOLED Advanced screen @ 960×540 (256 ppi)
TI OMAP 4460 1.2GHz dual-core processor
PowerVR SGX540
1GB RAM
16GB internal storage
up to 32GB via microSD
HSPA+ 21Mbps, HSUPA 5.76Mbps
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Bluetooth 4.0
8MP autofocus camera w/ LED flash
1.3MP front-facing camera
1080p video recording at 30fps
1800mAh Li-Ion battery
Google Android 2.3 Gingerbread

The 7.1mm frame beats the 8.49mm of the Galaxy S2. The design looks pretty sweet and comes with a Kevlar fibre at the back. At the moment, it’s only available via Verizon under a plan at $299.99 and we don’t know when it be reach the Philippines.

Very nice but it’s gonna be useless in the Philippines, because Verizon phones are CDMA which means no SIM card.

@irv: Yes, moto still sells phones here in PH even if they pulled their factory of the country years ago. :)

P15k for a dual-core Android smartphone? Cherry Mobile or major promos lang ang maaasahan mo nyan.

$299 is the cash-out price for this phone but you have to be subscribed to a plan not lower than $60/month, locked-in for 2 years. The unlocked price in the US would probably be around 600$

You’re probably thinking that $299 is the unlocked price, so there’s the clarification.
