Will the Razr Maxx have is own section or do you think the existing forum be used?
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
i would vote for using the same section as the Razr. It is after all a Razr, just with a bigger battery. Im getting my Maxx tomorrow and i would hate having to go back and forth between a Razr and a Razr Maxx forum.
own forum, it is a different phone.
Don't all the droids have their own forums?
I'm getting mine tomorrow as well. And I agree on keeping it here. With the bootloader locked there isn't much development especially on the cdma side of things. Would be two basically dead forums until dev picks up.

It's not a different phone.
Different back and battery.
The insides are identical.
Single forum.
Keep it here. You can taunt us original RAZR owners with your excessive battery life.

Nice tie going.
Currently Razr...
Will get a Maxx battery if I can find a nice enough deal on one
Thats weird, I was expecting 5-6 times more Razr than Maxx owners
Razr owner here. Surprised to see there're more Maxx owners in the poll
Razr owner here also.
Just root and install a custom rom to get as much or better battery life than a stock Maxx.

Same here I own a Razr. Maybe once we get more people voting the Razr will beat the Maxx by a larger %.
I have a Razr and am quite happy with it... But will convert it to Maxx as soon as the parts are available.
This is more like what I would expect given how much longer the Razr has been out over the Maxx. Oh I should have added one of the new color Razr's as a choice... oh well too late.
Maxx for the win The battery life soars light years ahead of my third battery in my Incredible.
btw-They are backordered right now at Corporate stores, I got the last one from a local retail store. Apparently Motorola hasn't peaked production yet...hmmm, didn't they make a high demand for the X when it came out also?

It's actually both the RAZR and the RAZR MAXX. They run identical software. The only real difference is the bigger battery, slight change in the color of the housing and the Motorola plate on the front top is changed. The XT912 is the "Droid" version for VZW and the XT910 is the GSM version used world wide. Although there is no MAXX for the XT910.
no razr maxx in the UK so I got the Droid razr

Razr Maxx here. Tons of battery life with 4G on all day!
I am probably going to get the RAZR, because the Maxx is $100 more just for battery. I'll just go pick up a USB battery pack for $40 and then I get a thinner phone, too. Also, the white looks pretty sharp. Haha, get it (Its not very funny)?
Any RAZR owners know of the best ICS rom?
Razr owner. I really don't have issues with the battery. I am usually busy at work so my battery lasts about 18 a day. Them on the weekends, I am usually close to a power outlet.

Best to get the MAXX. The extra battery life is worth it. I had the RAZR and carried around an extra potable battery charger. Once the MAXX was announced I returned the RAZR. Bought the MAXX on launch day, best decision I made. I get about 18+ hours on a single charge. Best RAZR did was 8-9 hours.

I have an Inspire 4g. Been a great phone, done all kinds of stuff to it. Contract with ATT is finally up! Been lookin at the Razr Maxx. Any thoughts, opinions, etc? Thanks!
Just got mine. Love it to death. Developer community isn't quite as big as HTC devices it seems. A bit of a learning curve going over to a Motorola device. The battery life is pretty ridiculous. As this and the razr become more popular i have high hopes for the developer community.

I had a Bionic -> Razr -> Razr Maxx
The Maxx is definitely the better of the three.
The Bionic is a good phone, but is now read ended and people are even seeing warranty replacements being offered to them as Razr or Razr Maxx.
Forget the Bionic..

I went with the MAXX and so far so good.
I have owned both phones. I would still have my bionic but I jumped into a pool with it.
I actually got paid $40 to get that phone it's a funny story actually.
But I now own the Razr Maxx and it owns hands down. Battery life is x5 of what my bionic was.
I had to turn off data when not in use (I good practice but I don't have to on the Razr) and I never ran it on 4g because it would just instantly drain the battery. I had eclipse rom on it and it still drained like crazy.
Razr Maxx > Bionic
Razr is superior in every way.
Shouldn't be to hard of a choice.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. However while the razr is no longer in the top tier of phones, it's still a very solid device. Build quality is excellent, great hardware, and will be getting more software updates(jellybean). Yes the up dates may take a while but at least we know they are coming. Besides only about 20% of all android OS's are using ICS. Compare that to the 1.2% running jellybean. Unless you are one of those people that have to spend top dollar on the latest and greatest only to have it be obsolete in a month, the razr series phones are fantastic devices.

I bought 2 bionics on day 1. After 2 months they sent me 2 razrs to solve my problems.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
Both the phones are almost similar.
1 thing that doesn't matter is the carrier, doesn't matter at all. So, cannot decide on this basis.
Photon costs less but then Razr is selling better than Photon AFAIK.
Other than the carrier, which phone would you recommend and why? Just help me decide.
Thanks
Razr! Photon us much bulkier than even the Maxx and terrible battery life.

Got the raze m Yesterday and I must say that for so $99 with contract you just can't beat it. Little disappointed I bought razr Maxx then moto releases 3-4 killer phones soon after. ...it is what it is. Anyway razr m is a little on the small side which i like and its solid. The phone is a great size, it fits so naturally in your hand. The benchmark results from quadrant was nothing shy of 4467! I think that's impressive compared To my Maxx Which is upper 2700s. Does that extra .3ghz make that huge of a difference? This dual core rocking the snap dragon 1.5ghz is right up there with the HTC one x
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
I think it's more of the Snapdragon S4 processor being better than TI-OMap. I don't care for benchmarks, it's about real world usage.
RAZR M is cool. I would upgraded to the Maxx HD though. You not getting much change from a Maxx to RAZR M in my opinion. Better processor and more recent software stuff but what else? Not trying to hate, just saying the HD RAZR's would of been a better upgrade for me.

If the 4.3" in the M was an upgrade I would seriously consider it for my next phone.
I think it's size is great.

I believe the size and the screen display is the same the current Razr/Maxx have. So that's not an upgrade if you're moving to the Razr M.

Thanks for naming it! For some reason I couldn't figure out it was called the RAZRi. I'm considering it vs the iPhone... which I'm considering mainly because I'm just getting bored with Android.

What phones are you referring to? Because the only new Motorola phone released after the RAZR MAXX was the Droid 4. There might have been a new color released for the Droid RAZR, but no new phones. The RAZR M is the 1st new phone released since February. Of course I'm only counting phones released on VZW.

I think the OP was referring to the new Razr's announced. Razr M, Razr HD, Razr Maxx HD, and Razr i. It is kind of soon because the Razr Maxx came out in 2012 and it hasn't even been 12 months yet and Motorola's already got 4 new and better phones out/coming out.

The RAZR MAXX came out towards the end of Jan. The Droid 4 was in Feb. The RAZR M just came out in the 2nd week of Sept. That's a lot of time between phones for Motorola. I count 3 new phones coming out, the RAZR M and the RAZR HD and MAXX HD. The RAZR/MAXX HD phones most likely aren't coming until sometime around Thanksgiving. That would be a year after the 1st Droid RAZR was released.

The OP has a Razr Maxx, not the skinny Razr, so it's not even a year yet. A year is 12 months in the U.S.
Shows how much quality they put into each of their phones. It's clear they care more about putting out the most phones they can rather than focusing on quality such as their average 8MP camera work just to name something. For me it's about quality, not quantity. The Razr M is cool for a lower end release (save some people money). The Razr Maxx HD would of been enough of a successor from the Razr/Razr Maxx. What is the point for them to release the Razr HD? And I don't even care for the Razr i.
Well for me I would get the regular Razr Hd, I like my phone to be thin and its the same specs as the Maxx so why not? When i bought my razr the maxx was already out and i chose the regular razr because it was so damn thin i love it.
The only thing that really pisses me off about the new phones is that they are all thicker than the originals. I agree the maxx has an awesome battery but too me its not worth the thickness, even if it is slight.
