Figured I would post up the new phone I got today!
Was debating on getting one for a while to use instead of my ReZound and decided to pull the trigger when the LE version came out.
Same software and such as the regular version so not a huge deal but still kinda cool nonetheless.
And of the back.

nicee!
is that the phone who is exclusively for verizion staff?
So... it's a Razr with a purple back?
Red Kevlar by the looks of it

How much did u get yours for? Looks cool. Not $2k cool but very cool and rare
Yeah its is the red employee limited edition. Now that it is mentioned, the pix do make it look a bit on the purple side!
I work for VzDubya so just got it at the normal going rate.
I saw one on Craigslist for $700. It does look really cool.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
700 doesn't seem too shabby for someone who is going to buy one outright anyway. Through Verizon they are about 695 without a contract. Not positive if they are in fact locked to employee lines though.
I have a RAZR now could not justify to use the upgrade line and get the limited edition one.

The small thumbnail pic kinda looks purple but, I can tell it's red.
Looks great!!!!
That color looks closer to the red family than it is purple to me. Looks nice, different!! Wished they made a white version for the Maxx!! That's my favorite of the og Razr.

A customer gave me their old blackberry 8520 and I have been using it for about a week and a half and hardly miss android or my Amaze.

you want to sell your amaze? i might buy if its in good condition and the price is right
I took it off the charger monday night and I am at 50% so yeah its pretty awesome.
I think Ill keep my Amaze and wait to see what the warenty replacement becomes for this older BB.
It may not have all the games and what not but as far as talk, text and emails its pretty nice, just wish it wasnt a pinkish red color lol
I can honestly say the only thing I miss about BB is battery life. I should get out of work with 80-85% battery, with my amaze I get out of work and it'll be around 25% equal usage =[

had a bb 8300 when they first dropped, loved that phone. now i regularly cheat on my amaze with my mytouch running the goodness known as MIUI
I sometimes go back to my 9700. Miss battery life and I don't care what anyone tells me, the physical keyboard is just better and I am pretty fast and accurate on my Amaze or mytouch4G.
I wish and hope BB does well. May pick up a BB10 device .....maybe, lol!

BB curve 8900 was one of my favorite phones ever... If it had the bold 9000s radio capability it would have been the perfect phone. Haven't messed with bb since the original bold... Disliked it that much. The curve would be fun to go back and play with it. I never hacked one (moto cliq xt was first hack as test before rooting mt4g)
Btw... HATED THE 8520.. cheaply built feel, slow data, and I HATED the buttons compared to 8900.

Anyone know if there's a white kit around for the RAZR? Mines black and I want white
Sent from my DROID RAZR
Closest thing I've seen was someone selling a white back on eBay. Even if a kit was offered it would likely cost more than buying a good used white & selling you black(it's even possible you could come out ahead going this route but with whites not as common it's likely you'll find one for less than what the blacks to for but you never know).

I have returned one Razr Maxx for this issue. The unit I have know also has this issue. I will explain...
Your screen has to be black. I achieve this by either doing a google image search for black image or.. While hdmi out to TV (screen goes to black while hdmi out)
When screen is black and you yourself are in a dark room, example: laying in bed with lights out.
Look at your screen. You will see black blotches or black lines on your screen.
The two maxx phones i've had both show these abnormalities but... They appear differently between the two phones.
Wondering if this is a screen issue or is it some kind of glue underlying the screen.

You're looking at it the wrong way.. I work hard for my money. When you spend over $600 on something you use everyday - and - when you have 14 days to try out an investment you look for imperfections. OCD... No, more like protecting an investment.

OK. Look at it in the dark on a black screen and see what you can find. Or go to some content and see what it can do.
I have ocd too. And thanks to you I'll never put a black screen on my Razr in the dark.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
It's a AMOLED display and this is normal. All AMOLED displays have this at some degree.
I've never looked at it in a dark room. it's a phone. It's not a proofing display.
My screen has this problem as well. It def looks like a manufacturing defect, but I noticed after the 14 days so vzn wouldn't give me a new phone just a refurb. I just decided to keep it for now maybe I'll do a warranty claim later.

Side effect of the Super Amoled display. All Razr' will have this. Exchange to your hearts content but you won't get one without it. Look at it like this though. What problems does your current device NOT have? When you exchange your device you might pick up new issues. Just keep that in mind.

You have to be in a pitch black room to even notice it. It can be a nuisance when watching movies in bed, though.

Basically, if Motorola doesn't upgrade your 2011 Motorola smartphone to Jelly Bean they will (most likely) give you a $100 credit towards a new phone. Limited details right now but I signed up for alerts. Rumors are X2 will be one of these phones.
So if you are looking to a new phone I would wait a few weeks. I'm probably going to be switching to the Razr Maxx HD (complicated name!) when it comes out and a $100 credit would be amazing!
Opinions? Anyone still use an X2 besides me?
I'm not so sure if it would be worth it. You need to trade in your old phone and the x2 is selling for at least 100 on swappa and other sites so why not choose cash over a gift card?
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2
It's tempting...the $100 plus I do like how strong the build quality of this motorola phone is and the razr's do seem pretty tough as well, but I will probably pass and get something like a samsung note 2 or an htc incredible x that does/will have an unlocked bootloader. Plus I dont want to trade in my X2...rather keep it as a backup or wifi device that my kid can play on.
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda app-developers app
We're definitely not getting JB. $100 is nice, but it's probably towards only moto devices. Which is fine. Razr HD for me when my upgrade is active.

How long does the offer last? My upgrade isnt available until April of next year. $100 off a $550 phone is still expensive. I'll probably end up switching from Motorola anyway when the time comes.

Your upgrade should bring it down to $200, plus the $100 off. And since you have moto now, they should honor it well into next year. My upgrade is in March, but I might swing in around January and see if I can get it a month or two early.
Definitely sticking with moto. I've had numerous Samsung devices that I've needed to have replaced. Not a single problem with my DX2, and it takes a serious beating. Moto definitely makes the best physical handsets, period.

I agree about Motorola phones being built well. My x2 is over 8months and still looks new. I had the LG Ally before this and it was a good phone too...it looked brand new when I gave it away it just needed a new battery.

My DX2 also looks like it just came out of the box.
We still have an Ally getting used everyday in our household. It looks a bit worn, but not bad. It even survived a run in with a toilet, lol.

I saw this today in a Mozilla newsgroup and thought folks here would be interested.

My X2 has been to the bottom of a local river on fishing/kayaking this year twice ! Never stopped working.....got a little glitch for a bit but kept on ticking. Still looks new also.....they are great devices. It will be hard to give mine back. But
with the work of DZK its made me want a phone capable of full Jelly capabilities.

I suppose I'm just a fan of HTC phones, but I would stick to the Thunderbolt.
Your phone works perfectly and you know how to use it correctly. The Razr would be another whole thing to get used to and you take a chance on that phone having its issues.
I'm probably way out there on my concept, and I'd also hate to see you leave the Thunderbolt community. We've lost a lot of people already, and as active as you are here, it would be much lonely here.
Besides that, I just personally think the Thunderbolt is a better phone... but that's just my opinion of it.

The displays in them after the og droid look like crap. You can actually see the digitizer on it which is annoying to me. Plus blur sucks really bad IMO. I think blur just looks terrible. Hardware wise the phone is better but I think the display and blur are enough for me to not want it.

I know this is a few days old, but another vote for keeping the Thunderbolt. I checked out the RAZR and RAZR MAXX in the store, and absolutely hated the display and overly large bezel, as well as the odd hard edges of the phone. While the Thunderbolt is older and has lower specs, I still prefer it. Heck, I missed it after using a GS3 for a couple days.
Yea I'm not getting it. I really hate moto phones.
