Very awesome picture, nice job!
LOVE IT!!!
Why would I feel angry?
I have a phone with a battery that lasts 17 hours to 20%, has a great screen, has the newest GB Android and will be getting ICS sooner or later, has great call quality, signal strength, is thin and made of premium materials.
What is it exactly that I am supposed to be angry about?

What's your point? I'll be angry when Moto don't unlock bootloader on ICS release. Coz Motorola declared it. We'll see.

You will not get the unlock with ICS. You want an unlocked bootloader then buy the Developer edition.

This is a FAQ on MOTODEV's site:
"Why has Motorola chosen to make a separate unlockable edition of the Motorola RAZR™?
The creation of a developer edition in Europe was the most efficient way to deliver an unlockable device."
Efficient or profitable???
Can they not send an OTA to unlock our devices? <Seriously, I don't know if this is possible.

And yes. They *could* unlock the bootloader with an OTA *if they wanted to*.

Yes the DROID razr is really fast its great. Its also built very well. I'd definitely get one. Its a very thin phone too with a great camera. I'd buy the razr maxx if you want the bigger battery though.

so selling a developer edition of the phone should solve the problem? what about peolpe that havn'T enough money to buy this?
moto should feel ashamed about this decision... but big moto just want to have our money... and more and more of it...

Well, isnt the Atrix the sister of Bionic? I heard from VZW that it was delay due to melting issue. Over heat in situation due to the dual core it uses.
Motorola phones are pointless if you care about aosp kernels etc
Also you are supporting the company that wants root community to die...screw them
I like the fascinate, I dont like samsung, the samsung charge looks a lot like the fascinate, with LTE, and front facing camera, I think is better than the thunderbolt, but again, what good is it to have an unencrypted bootloader if the source codes are not released by samsung, see how we have managed with the fascinate, just hunting for leaks, fortunately we have better releases from our devs than from samsung or verizon, and it is very true what Nitsuj17 wrote, we dont want to support a company that wants to control how you use your owned and purchased with your hard earned money phone, screw motorola.
in simple words, I think I am leaning towards samsung charge

Wasn't the source code for the Charge released already? And I've been hearing HTC is slowly following Moto's footsteps in locking their bootloaders.

Correct and correct. Cyanogen (of all people) has actually picked LG over HTC for his next phone because of this.
I have been with samsung since my first cellphone back in 2004, I will be getting the charge when the price drops.
I think all of them will eventually lock bootloader. Either that or suck.**** on release like samsung. Tbolt looks promising, so is charger.

Same here. I think I'm addicted to the AMOLED screens (cause it sure isn't TouchWiz, using SPB Mobile Shell on the Omnias and LauncherPro on the Fascinate).
The Charge is the new 'big brother' to the Fascinate. The same guts more or less (nothing has changed profoundly), but the 4.3" SuperAMOLED+ Screen vs the 4" SuperAMOLED screen is sexy. Then you sprinkle a little 4G in there and some new cameras, and bam, you have the Charge.

With the OTA 2.2 update tho I'm pretty damn happy with my Fascinate once again. I really think it'd take a screamin' dual core 4G phone to make me really want to jump to a new on.
Yeah I think a dual core would make me more likely to upgrade even sooner.
The charge originally was supposed to be a dual core, but alas it was not to be.
$300 is steep, but if you think about it, its the exact same price as a 32gb iphone.
Think how much better a charge will be than an iphone:
almost 1 inch larger next gen screen.
lte
not stuck on inferior os
etc etc
If you think about it that way, the price seems much more palatable.
I just hope they make the physical buttons better than the DX. Those were flimsy.
That is steep. All of my last four phones were all under 250. Charge has less ram than tbolt. So what warrant the price?

There wasn't a thread on this new device, so I figured I'd start one.
I've always strayed away from Moto devices and have been eagerly waiting for the Vigor and Nexus Prime. That said, the DROID RAZR looks like a worthy competitor.
With competitive specs, a nice big screen and a 7.1mm thickness, it seems like an amazing device. I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts...
I will still wait for the Prime and Vigor, but this device is looking so damn good right now with my available upgrade. Pre-order starts the 27th, but it probably wont drop until early November. We'll see on the Prime dates tonight and hopefully learn of concrete Vigor dates soon.

I think it's by far the best Moto device. I still like the Rezound because of the 1.5Ghz processor and Beats, and I do like Sense. From time to time, I take a break from Sense to try the new CM or MIUI, but always end up coming back. Also, the Rezound and GNexus will come out on November 11th according to a Verizon roadmap. We'll get a confirmation on the GNex tonight.
Moto RAZR + Locked Bootloader = No Thank you
In all seriousness, this is probably the first Moto device that I would consider purchasing if it wasn't locked down. The specs are pretty nice and it's pretty thin...just like I prefer my ladies.
I also noticed on Droid Life the Razr went thru FCC with both LTE & GSM radios. That's pretty nice.

Completely agree... it is a great looking phone, but that cannot overcome the locked bootloader.
kuddos to motorola for making some nice improvements after the bionic fiasco.
I can't personally stand the look of it. I've never really liked Moto's design though. And that horrid UI thrown on top of it just doesn't do it for me. And no ICS as of right now? Locked bootloader? Pass, pass, pass...
Am I the only one who just now realized it's gonna be an amazing week for Verizon?

Looks pretty awesome, but I cannot and will not buy a phone with a locked bootloader. If I was interested in being locked down, I would buy the 4S in a heartbeat. The other reason I can't justify the Razr is because of the qHD display while still costing as much as the Rezound and Prime.
According to one leak they are all out on the 10th of November. Can't wait to see them in person, I really think I am leaning towards the RAZR. In the back of my head I think about ICS and larger screen, but the smaller better looking RAZR has me interested. Hopefully the bootloader will be figured out soon enough.

Nope. On Endgadget and Co, most comments say that Motorolala's bootloaders are hardly "perfectly safe". I love that phone too, but I will have to pass, cause we will never see any custom rom on it.
but it's so beautifull...
I'm like a moth and a candle... hahaha
Looks like the RAZR will be getting ICS sometime after launch. Kind of makes the decision tougher, although after last night's event I'm in love with the Nexus. I just pray the LTE version isn't much thicker.

I know it's easy to jump to conclusions, but just because it has a locked bootloader doesn't mean it will always be that way. Look what HTC did, didn't motorola promise to start unlocking them? Battery is swapable, but maybe it will be still be replaceable with some disassembly. The only thing that can't possible improve is NFC. I really was looking forward to this, why did motorola leave this out?
I have a Rezound and love it except for the battery life. Verizon is offering me a Certified Pre-owned phone of my choice without signing a contract. The Bionic looks like the best one available, for $149.99. It uses the same size 4G sim card as my Rez? I can just swap back and forth if so. Would this be a solid backup phone? It has a couple cool things like a dedicated hdmi port and the lap dock option. Worth the buck fifty?

It has had some updates to fix some of the issues, my suggestion would be to check the bionic forums and see how people feel it is working now. So how did you work that out to get offered another phone without contract plus keep the Rezound ? Curious, because I would love to have another phone to mess around with myself
I bought the Rez used, and the Verizon rep put insurance on my account when he activated my sim card. Turns out that is not an option for used phones, so I whined and moaned about not having a warranty on a 3 month old phone, and they offered me the CPO device. I can use it whenever, too! Might just wait for a Nexus to show up and sell it

Had the Bionic for 6 hours before returning it for the Rezound. Wasn't impressed at all. Plus, I thought I read the Bionic went on sale for $99 today. Still wouldn't buy it.
The Bionic is garbage. I mean, its plenty fast, but the screen is very washed out, and the camera is just sooooo bad. Plus I really hated the shape of the thing. It was uncomfortable to talk on for more than a couple minutes, and even uncomfortable to hold for long periods. Why anyone would put sharp edges on a phone is beyond me!
Hey this is the OP, thanks for all the feedback. Sounds like the Bionic is basically a big deuce, a pos, a stinker to be killed with fire, but...I still want it to tinker with...ugh, can't decide.

In case you haven't been keeping up with Google I/O, one of the BIG announcements was the release of a complete stock, unlocked, open Samsung Galaxy S4.
It will come with 4.2.2 I believe. It will get updates direct from Google.
However, it is a GSM device. What do you all think about it? Anyone been on the fence about switching phones? Anyone reserve a Verizon S4?
I think it's cool, and I hope Google drops more phones in this manner.
It's cool, but no real reason to get it above a regular s4 imo.

$650 is lower compared to the DNAs full price at launch.
It not working on Verizon really does suck, perhaps some devs will port the ROM over to the CDMA version. I want complete and utter stock experience.
This phone pleases the Android purist in me. I so wish I could have it on my current phone, but I must be patient.

Point being, I have an upgrade. So I can just get the GS4 for $199.
I imagine that since this exists, it would be pretty close to trivial for an almost complete stock experience on any GS4, as from past experience.
Huge letdown in my opinion.
Droid DNA-Newt Sense 5
Nexus 7-Stock
I think it's pretty amazing (and definitely surprising) that Samsung agreed to stock Android.
Hopefully this will set a trend with other manufacturers as well.
I would have been more excited if Google chose the GS4 AND the HTC One for its pure Nexus-like version. Even at full price a HTC One w/ pure AOSP would be a very very very compelling option for high end users. Arguably the best software paired with THE best hardware. That could be worth $650

Agreed... But HTC doesnt have the "stones" to do that. Its led around by the nose from the carriers... snapping their fingers.. "here boy...here boy...cmon".... LOLOLOL....
Ex.... 16 gigs memory... no sd slot.... not helping devs (on the DL) to unlock phones. Now that would be epic. Till then they will always be second or even third consideration for me. I had a TBolt, Rezound, and now DNA. Loved all phones but Nooka please....get some ballz HTC!!!
I'd buy it in a heartbeat if it was compatible with Verizon. I'll have to settle for the normal one with Cyanogenmod.

I couldn't agree more. I ordered the S4 Active and it will be here tomorrow. I will miss Sense 5 but I had no choice, the battery life was killing me and a 5 inch screen is a sweet spot.
If it has US bands (LTE and so on) I will gladly buy an unlocked version
The battery is bigger than the Note 2's battery. HTC is finally listening to their customers. If only it came with the Snapdragon 800...I would definitely get it. However, our HTC One still looks wayyyyyyy better IMO.
Sent from the "ONE" for me
The phone is being made for the Taiwanese market as of right now it doesnt have any LTE bands, US or International. Also its made of glossy plastic instead of the aluminum the one is made of. To those complaining about it being better specced, There will always be better phones in the pipeline, can't always be waiting or looking back and saying we got the short end, you will never be satisfied if you do.
Don't care, still love my one. If you waited to get the next top notch phone then you would never get a new one. I'm happy with the all metal flagship device.

Nope, because:
1. I've already had my phone for months. There's no guarantee what carrier(s) this is going to and what those carriers will do to it.
2. I love the aluminum build of the One.
3. I'd rather have 32 or 64 GB of onboard storage than an SD card option. Google has been (intentionally) making the SD card less and less useful in Android.
4. Apparently, the Butterfly S doesn't have OIS: https://twitter.com/nerdtalker/status/347453833305284608
The speakers don't look very seamless... looks pretty ugly because of that. Hope that isn't the final model. The back looks plastic too.

Nope, because:
1. I've already had my phone for months. There's no guarantee what carrier(s) this is going to and what those carriers will do to it.
2. I love the aluminum build of the One.
3. I'd rather have 32 or 64 GB of onboard storage than an SD card option. Google has been (intentionally) making the SD card less and less useful in Android.

I agree, our phone is a lot nicer, I just wish for some of those features to pop up in a One varient.

Hopefully it shares the same software as the s4, otherwise it's going to be a very boring / slow sub forum.

That's why I have 14 days to decide. I'm not getting rid of my One right away. Only if I love the S4
