thank you
Well which i do know is that in some places you get Nvidia Tegra, instead of their exynos processor.
I think the SGSII work on the same frequencies needed to get 3G, in US but dont take my word here, better wait for confirmation from somebody else.
Where to get a international one? have a good friend that lives international, or buy it off ebay. Oh yeah we have the 1.2GHz exynos processor here.
nothing that a quick google search doesnt help, http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1022462.html
I can be your friend and buy one for you but they dont come cheap here..
its 476.50 EURO shipped to me(FYI its 472 not shipped), and then shipping to you would 25,60 euro..
totals 502,10 euro
502.10 EUR = 722.603 USD
Xe.com
not cheap and your better of in your own land i think..
but if interested be my guest.
oh yeah specs from phone in Holland :
De Samsung Galaxy S2 ondersteunt GSM 900, 1800 en 1900 MHz netwerken. Met de Galaxy S2 kan je razendsnel mobiel internetten dankzij de HSDPA en UMTS ondersteuning. De snelheid van HSDPA heft het verschil tussen thuis en onderweg op. Met de Samsung Galaxy S2 kunnen zowel tekst (SMS) als multimedia (MMS) berichtjes verstuurd en ontvangen worden. Dankzij de emailondersteuning kan je ook gewoon je eigen emails lezen. Trilalarm en polyfone of mp3 beltonen behoren uiteraard tot de standaarduitrusting.
ondersteuning means "supports".
There is a SGS2 forum, go there to get all the info you are asking about. But to answer your question, yes it fully works on AT&T and I ordered mine from Expansys USA.
well ^^^
but it seems like he already did it,.
i ordered mine from expansys usa on friday night so i hope i will get it by next week or so...but thank you to all who helped me...
thanks again...
Hello, I wanna know where to buy the amaze in LA and how much will it cost, I'm going to LA in February. If i buy it locked from T-Mobile, the traveling excuse works for the unlocking code ? Thank you in advance!

Will be a few Motorola devices with 3.300mA worldwide about 3 months from now. Razr maxx may get other nanes and specs. New gadgets will feature improved cam (13MP), ICS with on-screen buttons, and ever a bigger screen. Take note of this.
Thanks

I am from Romania and I am waiting also for RAZR MAXX in Europe Thank you for this thread. I will be a hard waiting
Contact with Motorola UK
Just like you I live in Europe and I really like the specs on the RAZR MAXX phone. After reading dozens of sites with rumors I decided to contact motorola.
They replied the following:

Dear Mr ***,
Thank you for contacting Motorola.
We regret to inform you that the Droid Razr MAXX will not be available on the European market.
Kind regards,
Motorola Mobility

I replied with a couple more questions, mostly about the rumored(?) GSM version in China. When I hear more, I'll let you know.
Think I'll just get a kit to transform my xt910 to MAXX.
I posted this in another thread too, hope I won't get into trouble for reposting.
I've emailed motorola today. This is their answer:
Thank you for contacting Motorola.
We are sorry to inform you that we have currently no plans regarding the release of the Droid Razr Maxx in Europe. We would like to advise you against importing a phone that has not been manufactured for your region since we cannot guarantee its 100% compatibility with the European networks and in case you need a repair our repair centres would not be able to help due to the lack of necessary parts.
They didn't tell me if the China version is GSM or CDMA. I've asked that too.
buy from ebay
If I buy from ebay, how do use it without sim card? CDMA have micro-sim for verizon. How do I avoid the screen when I on the device (sim is needed to use this phone popup screen)? Any idea?
Contact with Motorola UK part 2
"Dear Mr xxx,
Thank you for contacting Motorola.
Unfortunately since it's an American unit, we can not guarantee that it will work in the EU.
It will most likely work on European networks, but please note that if you would purchase a device from America or China it will not be covered by a warranty in your country.
Motorola has not any plans on releasing a GSM unit of this device in Europe.
Kind regards,
Motorola Mobility"
Not good... The only option left is getting the regular RAZR with the bigger battery kit. Or just wait for a different phone...
Also keep in mind that all of these replies from Motorola state they don't have plans to release the "Droid Razr Maxx" in Europe. Well, that goes without saying. No "Droid" phone has ever been released in Europe. The "Droid" name is licensed by Verizon, and they're the only cellular operator in the world that officially releases phones with that name.
The Motorola Droid phones on Verizon almost always always see international GSM releases, but they're released under a different name and model number. Even though they're almost always pretty much identical on the hardware front, they're considered completely different phones. For the RAZR MAXX, such a release wouldn't be difficult since the radio already supports GSM (it's just not enabled on the Verizon version).
So while there hasn't been any confirmation of a GSM release in Europe, given Motorola's release history, it's definitely a possibility that there will at least be a GSM compatible version released at some point.
You are right about the name of the phone. It will probably be named differently. Still, if a GSM (compatible) version is coming, it will take a while. And I read somewhere a developer's version is already out. Although that one will have no warranty. Not that I will be getting warranty on an American or Chinese phone... Just by checking this forum, there are still a lot of things that are causing troubles. Without warranty, I regret to say that I will not be buying it.
This weekend I checked out two big cellphone companies (in the Netherlands) what they had to offer. They both mentioned the Xperia S and the still mysterious Galaxy S3. When I asked about the Razr Maxx, they both had to check if it was coming at all. Only one of them said it "might be in a couple of months".
I still have a month or two before I need to decide, so I'll just wait it out.
The Droid RAZR Maxx is coming to Europe, minus the Droid branding and LTE radio, in May of this year. Motorola has just announced its plans to release the 4.3-inch Android smartphone with a 3,300mAh battery in select markets across Europe and the Middle East. Although the Android version isn't specified, we can probably expect it to still be running Gingerbread like the US variant, with an upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich somewhere in its future.

Hello all, I never had a motorola and coming from an HTC EVO 3D... so this phone is all new to me.
I was thinking in buy an razr maxx to use in Portugal. I can find some razrs to sell from verizon (so i guess they come from USA) but my question is to know if i can use it in Europe and more exactly in Portugal? Will it work fine with my Portuguese SIM card? Something i should know?
Other thing, can anyone advise me if this is a good choice? With so many new phones, like SII, SIII, ONE S, ONE X, should this be a good choice? Or should this be the best choice?
Thank you for all the information that you can give me and help me to decide.
Bump! I would also like to know if this will work since Im currently in germany

I no longer need this information as I've decided to buy another phone.
Thanks anyway.
Yes, if you're on ICS, then this phone will work on any GSM carrier if you put the SIM card in.
Hi everyone.
Im looking for a Razr Maxx from Verizon, but I live in Mexico.
The phone is already on sale here, but it costs like $1000 USD.
I wonder if the ICS update will let me use the phone without problems
using my actual GSM carrier (cutting my sim to make it microsim)

Yes, ICS update will allow you to use GSM sim cards (keep in mind that you will not be able to use USA GSM providers like AT&T and T-Mobile)
What carrier, Telcel, Iusa, or Movistar? How expensive is the micro? I think mine cost the same as a normal one.
