Currently have the razr, but considering a switch to the rezound. I don't care about the nexus. Just wondering what everybody else thinks.

I like the razr but the rezound did finally get the boatloader unlocked.

Good question. I've read many reviews of the Rezound and they are all positive except for size. Some like the extra heft, some loathe it. Seems like a solid phone though, plus it has an unlocked BL now.

If the bootloader wasn't an issue I would stay with the razr for sure. I came from an evo where the development was endless. I think the development for the razr would probably out live the rezound if it wasn't for the dang thing being locked. Ugh...I can't make up my mind.

I would stay with the razr myself, but that's just me.

After using multiple HTC phones, including my current Incredible S running cm7, I have a deep distaste for HTC. Just my own opinions. So I won't even want to compare any top line HTC phones with other brands like Moto/Samsung.

I like the build quality but hate the hardware.
Nothing a little CM can't fix.

Why I prefer the Razr over the Rezound:
Display has much less glare
Much easier to see outside
Better touch response
Better contrast and brightness
Hot swap card
Webtop (Atrix lapdock rocks)
Better call quality
Faster performance
That said, if you are a kernel and ROM junky, the Razr will probably leave you cold turkey.

Lol. Thanks for not bashing me for having my own preferences and opinions. There are some hardcore HTC lovers and fan boys out there who sweat by them.
I had a rezound razr and nexus. Ill put in my .02$
Rezound was nice, screen felt tiny even though it was 4.3". 720p LCD is great. Colors are great. Sense is either you love it or hate it. I hated it, and it was a big turn off. It is now unlockable which will just lead to more development. The phone was fat but felt great in the hand, unlike the thinness of the razr. Beats was just a marketing tool, nothing really special about it, should not be a deciding factor. Battery life was decent, not as good as bionic/razr however. Oh and sense made the phone lag from time to time, but like the above guy said, nothing a desensed or CM rom cant fix.

Tbh as much as people whined about battery life on this phone, I refused to get one with a faster processor, bigger screen, AND smaller battery. Just wasn't doing it for me.
Everyone seems to like the Rezound with one exception... they all says its slow for its specs. It packs a 1.5ghz processor but only fares as well as 1ghz phone, or so they say.

This is just my experience of course. But I had two Rezounds before I got my RAZR. I did my research and the Rezound seemed to have the edge. First one's casing around the charging port jiggled. It was unsettling so I got a different one. The second one's call quality was so scrambled you could barely hear the other side. My family got a total of 5 Rezounds, and 3 had horrible call quality.
So finally I got the RAZR instead, and I'm so glad I switched. It never bogs down due to Sense, and call quality and signal are the best I've had on a phone. The screen resolution is a bit lower, but it's not noticeable. Actually it's nice having bigger text. And for build and call quality, speed, and battery life, the RAZR wins hands down in my experience.

Ok I know I'm weird but i have all 3 devices. I've used each for at least 3 days or more and I'll throw in my 3 cents. For me I'll list in order of devices.
1 - The Razr 95%
2 - Rezound 85%
3 - Galazy Nexus - 45% (I think I'm giving that too high a mark really)
I should mention I've rooted all 3 and use them with heavy use with over 3000 contacts, GPS and lots of phone calls to my clients.
Razr - screen beautiful, Navigation gps locks in a nonosecond, volume is excellent, fast and just a pleasure to use and very light to hold. With 2 rooted apps (Battery Calibration and AutoKiller Memory Optimizer I'm getting almost 2 days with all my use!!! On the negative side I think the thin is great but I wish it was not so wide for my smaller hands. Quadrant score consistent over 2700 (I don't know if that means anything really but it is cool to blow everything out of the water)
Rezound - screen is very nice, smaller print etc so harder to read for my old eyes, not quite as brilliant as the Razr. Navigation GPS lock not as quick as the Razr but quick. Volume on par with the Razr and like the Razr all software works excellent. With 2 rooted apps (Battery Calibration and AutoKiller Memory Optimizer) I'm able to get about 18 hours on average so ok) Quadrant score consistent over 2100 - not bad. I Like the resound in my hand as it's not as wide but it weights like a small brick.
Galaxy Nexus - I was so thinking this would be bomb...but after several days of use it is a bomb and not in a good way. Navigation GPS takes forever, Volume is abysmal, I mean from 5 feet away you can hardly hear a ring or music...horrible. I have a motorola bluetooth headphones and with my phone in my pocket I get a silence every 5 seconds, unacceptable to say the least. With 2 rooted apps (Battery Calibration and AutoKiller Memory Optimizer) I was getting about 10 hours of use and for that reason alone it gets an F. Quadrant score about 1200 but again not sure that means much. But really its an F for me for almost all categories except Ice Cream Sandwich which is nice, but Gingerbread works just fine for me with the other 2 phones. Phone is wide like the Razr and the weight is in the middle of the Razr and the Rezound.
This review is just my opinion. The Galaxy I just sold on Ebay and I will not miss it at all. I'm keeping both the Razr and the Rezound and have for now trading off using each. Being able to flash roms on the Rezound is way fun and at the moment I'm on Ineffabilis ROM which has so many cool tweaks and that make me smile.
I hope this helps,
Cheers to you all...
Hi razr guys!
I'm kinda confused right now because of the bootloader locked.
I'm asking myself if i should exchange my RAZR for a NEXUS
i watch few comparaison between both, and ok nexus have native ICS and will for sure upgraded first if a new android version is released.
Now the right question is, Does the locked bootloader of my RAZR is enough to change it?
If i take a deep breath and think, i found the RAZR way much sexy than NEXUS, performance are similar, camera is better, screen resolution is lower.
But hey, we already have ICS even with the locked bootloader, and 2 custom rom on Gingerbread.
And i heard many bug about strenght signal on the nexus.
That's why i'm confused and i'd like to have your opinion on this question.
I really hope motorola will unlock our bootloader, but if they dont is a good reason to throw my razr away?
Thanks!
If modding is more important to you and you are obsessed with an unlocked bootloader, then yes by all means you should "go"
If I could I would go. Motorola is not a company that I want to be associated with.
Amatuer flasher here. Considering coming to Razr Maxx by exchanging my Nexus. Battery life is bothering me. ICS not that different/impressive.
Seems like with a locked bootloader on the Razr, you can still root, flash, etc... What are you missing out on with a locked bootloader?
Thanks for indulging the noob questions...

The core thing isnt that the Phone, the Razr is bad without the locked BL. It wasnt the only argument for me to buy actually. But the way which is Motorola is going is the actually Problem which I see. For me Moto is dead and I will never buy any Product from them again ... Each other but none Motorola
I will wait 1 or 2 weeks.
Friend leave the waiting is the galaxy 3 thu esto i hope

I agree with others on this thread.
If you are hardcore about thoroughly customized ROMs and such, then a google experience device is the way to go.
But if you like solid build quality, performance, and long-lasting battery life - then the Maxx is just the thing for you.
Out of all the Motorola products I've owned, I contemplated between the RAZR Maxx, HTC Rezound, and the Galaxy Nexus. Spent two minutes with the Nexus and dropped it like a hot potato. Eventually made up my mind to go with the Maxx, and I'm thoroughly satisfied.
Motorola's UI has improved, and performance on the Maxx is very good. You can still root, remove bloatware and such - but with the locked bootloader, you're stuck with the kernel provided by Moto's software. It cuts down on the extent of modifications that can be made, but in the end - its your choice.
If you decide to go with the Nexus, I would heavily suggest waiting a bit, because there is suppose to be an updated "2.0" sorta-speak coming out soon. The current Nexus has its perks, but the radios aren't up to quality of Motorola and HTC.
I had the galaxy nexus and now have the maxx. I dropped calls and battery life was horrid on the gnex. I love ICS but also love battery life. The only reason I rooted the nexus was to get better battery life and faster 3-4g handoff. These are things I don't have to worry about with the maxx. Plus, I don't have any battery saver things on my maxx and last two whole days with it. On LTE the entire time. It's amazing and will be even better with ICS.
I have currently a sgs2 i9100 with ics, a tmobile sgs2 and my razr and to tell you the truth i use my razr way more than the other two. Sure i would love ics in my razr, but i can wait it will come. Im running frazers 2.4 rom and its just speedy as hell so the bootloader thing is not getting to me as much as others and i am a hardcore copulsive flasher!! But theres no way i would give up my razr just so i can flash. I would rather pony up the extra cash and by the gnex too to cure my flashing habit, but by no means i would trade it. To me the razr is superior in reception, not to mention is the best freaking phone ive used for wifi tethering, i play ps3 without a single disconnect and i dont have the LTE version. Battery life is ok, on par with my other phones, screen is beautifull, no complaints here, spec wise the razr has an sd slot(cant live without it), camera is ok, not great but ok, cant complain about pictures taken, build quality on razr is top notch, the best ive owned, call quality and speaker sound quality are also top notch. For me the razr trully is probably the only real smartphone masterpiece that motorola has developed even if it has a locked bootloader.

I have both Original Razr and GNex now, GNex is way better.
1. Regarding Radio, everyone says the Moto radio is better, and I have the doubts.
I have both Razr and GNex laying at the same position at same time and press speedtest at same time. Testing like this for 20 times.
GNex's 4G speed beat Razr every time of this 20 tests. even displaying 1 bar in 4G while Razr displaying 3 bars.
I feel that it is a "tricky" in measuring the bars that give you the false connectivity. I do had many times when Razr showed 3 bars but the data did not kick in at all.
2. Regarding Battery. Yes, GNex can never beat Razr Maxx in this category. But easily beating Razr. The trick? custom kernel. On Fransco Kernel 15.1 and the phone is awesome. It costs 1% over night of 7 hours!!! Repeat after me, 1% overnight of 7 hours. of course no airplane mode etc.
3. Regarding build quality.
The immediate impression was Razr is way too sexy. But hey, it is a dust sucker. I have seen so much dust in the top of the screen where Motorola logo is (ironically!) and at the side bezel of the screen.
Yes, the Kelvar back is awesome. No competition of that, especially the back of GNex is push-ed on style.
But GNex has a removable battery.
These two were equal in my house, BEFORE MOTOROLA's recent bomb news.
So Now I am leaning to GNex.
Had a razr, loved it. Then I exchanged it for the nexus. I had the nexus for three days. After three days I returned the nexus and got my razr back. For me the razr had more pros going for it than the nexus. I can honestly say the razr is the best device I have ever owned.

I have owned the Nexus and the Rezound. Now I am using the Razr Maxx and I love it. It is much faster than either the Nexus or the Rezound! I have been a HTC Sense lover for quite some time now but with the Razr Maxx I feel satisfied for the first time. Hopefully it will save me money in the long run!

I love the razr. Its really fast and I love how thin it is. Even with the locked boot loader you can still have some great custom roms.

thanks for your feedback, now i'm more confused than before lol
i'm a flashmaniacs, my past desire hd could confirm you ^^. but i made a mistake in the past, i had a transformer and asus locked the bootloader, so i sold it because i was angry and a month after, some devs managed to unlock it, and now i have an A100(it's a good tablet but not like the transformer and with a locked bootloader also -_-)
as jiwengang said, the nexus have removable battery and custom kernel which increase battery life and performance i guess.But it doesn't have micro sd.
I'd love to have razr MAXX too, but i just bought the razr and the maxx isn't available in france. I'll try to test the nexus and make my own opinion (i thought about the NOTE but the big thing afraid me ).
Well i don't know if you say that in english, but in french i would say:
I have my ass between two chairs!
Lots of good insights here. Thanks everyone.

Currently I'm up for a new phone on my contract and I'm considering the Droid Razr or Samsung GSII or Galaxy Nexus.
I've found a pretty decent contract for the Razr so I just want to see if anybody has any major gripes with the phone? All the reviews I have read/watched seem to give a pretty good outlook on the device.
Another question. Why are there so few custom ROMs for the phone? Is everyone waiting for an official release of ICS?
If you have anything to help make my choice, please add it below!
Almost took out the galaxy nexus on contract but what stopped me was its way to much like the Galaxy S2 which i own which is 2 plasticy and does not feel like a premium phone worth 400 to £500 , glad i got the Razr as it feels like its worth its value and will get better once the bootloader is unlocked and will be at its full potential once Icecream Sandwich is out
Dont buy anything from a company which lies to its customers !
I've been deciding on either the RAZR, the Nexus, or the Rezound. From what I've read, the Nexus can be buggy, and may have reboot and signal issues. The Rezound is a decent choice, but may not get as good a signal as the RAZR. The RAZR may not have great WIFI, but is good with 3/4G. Also, the RAZR's camera is not the best, especially in low light. My original Droid also had a weak camera. Personally, I'm going with the RAZR. I just wish the camera was better, but I need a good phone first.
Having a nexus....which I am trying to sell....I like the razr better. Huge difference is signal. Sitting in my houae on nexus was locked on -105. Razr is usually -86....at worst -95. Battery....on 3g is getting me easily through the day. Take it from someone whos had both.
Personally I would get the Maxx though if I were you.

I have no complaints about my RAZR MAXX. Signal, speaker, build, battery, speed - all excellent. The development scene won't be as big as your other options, but there is a good amount of action at a competing forum (droidrzr). I find the RAZR to be so smooth that custom ROMing isn't all that necessary, though I do run a build stripped of VZW and Moto bloat (Eclipse).
There's a good number of new and cool phones coming out soon, I personally would wait just a bit. Unless there's something about the RAZR you gotta have. I know one could wait forever but you should be able to get a full 720p screen, bigger CPU, great camera etc without the plasticy feel rather soon.
I went from a droid x to a razr then ended up with a rezound. Just my opinion, the rezound won hands down.

Had a Nexus for 3 days. Brought it back and got a razr. Brother had a Rezound, he also now owns a razr.
So you can guess what my opinion is.
Had to go to the Razr Maxx for the battery life and GPS. Was coming from a charge that sucked for both.
Razr MAxx ROCKS!!!
I just got rid of the galaxy nexus and got the razr i'm so glad i did i love the razr

LOL I wish i could get the razr maxx but its not an option with my carrier..
With those three phones I would choose the Gnex over the Razr because of the screensize and better support. I choose the Maxx because of the battery. The screen isn't as good but it is comparable in many ways and the support for the Razr is improving but will never be as good as the Gnex. I also had a Captivate for 1 1/2 years so I wanted to try something other than Samsung.
Surprisingly, neither the gnex nor the razr sell well in my store. (damn iphone).
Obviously for battery life, the MAXX pwns the rest, but I agree with the support base for the gnex and if you've ran ICS on the razr (even half-baked as it is right now) you know it was worth the wait.
galaxy nexus has a really bad battery..i have razr and in terms of speed the razr is same as gnex...only screen is better on galaxy nexus but razr has even better screen than samsung galaxy s2..!i had galaxy nexus and samsung galaxy s2 and now i am with motorola razr...for me the best and winner is razr,it has nice quality build,waterproof,slim and battery is really good,with normal use i get 2 days without charging the battery..google nexus has for me the worst battery ever,12 hours doing nothing and battery already dead and the most stupid thing is that it needed always 3.5 hours to fully charge same as samsung galaxy s2..of curse the most important for me was the camera...hmm yes galaxy s2 has better camera than razr BUT it always stutter omg same thing i faced on gnex and i said what the hell is wrong with samsung cameras?now with razr even camera is super for me with stabilization without any stuttering like samsungs i had...!
p.s
i am really a gadget geek...
i had 3 different samsung galaxy s2...1 used for a week in black color,gave it for iphone 4s which i hated it much already then again back to S2 in white color used it for 3 weeks and gave it for gnex which i used it a week and again back to S2..all had camera stuttering for me and bad battery so i decided to try Razr..and here i am..Rock you like a hurricane as you see i found happines
best voice quality both incoming and outgoing is RAZR, head and shoulders above. that's why i have one. i have to have professional conversations on my phone and cannot afford to not be understood. Samsung phones are for teenagers and people without real lives.

It is good for the most part. Slightly laggy because hardware acceleration still isn't optimized, but it isn't terrible enough for me to complain. I read that FFC has been fixed, it just hasn't been baked into all ICS roms yet. I was on ICS with my Captivate since the first port in November and I just couldn't take being back on Gingerbread with this phone. It has been really good and it will get better because the support is really great.
The support for the RAZR/RAZR MAXX is more than what people think. Sadly the community is spread across multiple sites, but the RAZR has plenty of ROM's and flashables to optimize speed, looks, and functionality.
I see it the same
RAZR MAXX > gNEX > RAZR > SGS2
gNEX has it beat with custom kernels and open bootloader, and also the screen size. Honestly because those 2 factors, the MAXX has it beat on all other fronts.
Stronger radio, battery, stronger build (gorilla glass, water resistant), and of course battery life. Both phones have nearly identical CPU, GPU, and same RAM -- so performance wise they should be identical.
Anyway.. just my take on it

Ya, I've been doing a lot of thinking about this qlitchy razr xt912. Just stepped into the pressing 6.11.748 update, still hoping for a smoother operation.
So my question is in part, what is all this hype about the ics? Less bloat? I'm considering doing myself a favor and freezing some of all this crap on my current os.
so what's ics really gonna do for any of us? Just more bloat that we'll have to freeze & remove to have an awesome phone? Sounds like a hassle, that I never woulda expected from Android ... windows, yes... but not Android.
The ics roms have zero bloat and it is much better than gingerbread. It is better in every aspect.

My friends have all phones mentioned and I have the razr, and everytime I show my phone off to someone new they fall in love with it.
This phone has quality surrounding it. Sound Quality is exceptional on phone calls and music. The screen is bright, and you can get ICS for all the devices mentioned so really that point is mute.
I would get the razr maxx over all the rest for the great battery life.

what can I expect? I suffered unfortunately through 3 replacement phones...my original phone overheated and had touchscreen issues, the 1st replacement had no microphone, the second replacement had bad data, and this last one was great, strong data, everything worked....until three weeks later, it won't charge anymore (luckily i have 2 batteries and an external charger) and my volume rocker crapped out on me...doesn''t say much about the refurbed units VZW is using in their replacement program...so I was offered a Droid RAZR MAXX for my troubles...and will be receiving it on Thursday...now I had an OG Droid, but have since had an HTC DInc, Sammy Fassy, and now the GNex...I'm a little out of the Moto rooting game, and trying to catch up on all the info since the RAZR MAXX had been released is a little daunting to say the least...
1st, how is the phone, radio, call quality, speaker, speaker phone...i can only expect it to be as good if not better than my OG Droid.
and 2nd, how strong is the dev commmunity for this phone and what really can we do with this beast?
I am a little excited to get back on a Moto device, and definitely excited about the RAZR MAXX HD which i was going to get as soon as it came out, but i'll have some fun with this phone for awhile first!
Locked boot loader... kexec roms are rolling out though ( custom kernels). Beast battery life, screen pixel density is better on nexus but the colors are better on the razr. imo. Best data/call reception a verizon device has to offer. Hands down...

great to hear about data/call reception...Sammy has horrible data...their hardware has weak signals...they claimed it was reporting to the OS wrong (signal bars in notification bar), but that was never cleared up...dbm has always been lower than other phones
is there a panoramic mode for the camera? that's the one thing i'm going to miss from my GNex...but going from 5mp to 8mp is a nice thing. panoramic mode is an ICS thing though isn't it?

Go to droidrazrroot.com and follow the instructions, it always works and is simple.
Outgoing voice quality is the best of any phone currently made GSM phone (not sure about CDMA) which is why I have one. I'll be comparing to iPhone 5 when it actually is available for testing though.
Worst Decision you could of made. If i were you, I'd throw your Razr on a railway track and watch it get ran over.
Razr never gave birth to a decently sized dev community.

Razr has panorama. still wouldn't recommend it over a Nexus though
I had the GNex for about 2 weeks and dumped it for the Razr Maxx back in April. I've been very happy with the switch. At first it was a little disappointing because the Razr was still running Gingerbread. But after the ICS update there wasn't really anything I didn't like about it. Screen is a little smaller, but it's big enough. Reception, both voice and data, is much better on the Razr.
And the battery life will blow you away. With the Gnex I'd go to work and by noon I'd be down to 30% battery left. And that was with the Samsung extended battery. Now I get home at 5PM and I'm at close to 60% left. It's a pleasure being able to get through the day without having to plug it in. It's a pleasure to forget to plug it in at night and not have a dead phone when you wake up.
I dumped my GSM GNEX, which is arguably much better than the Verizon GNEX. Don't regret it one bit. I love the GSM RAZR MAXX. Just put ICS on it (or get the carrier ICS since Verizon has it out) and enjoy it. No more futzing with low volume, short battery life, etc. It just works and lasts forever on a charge.
I'm done rooting and kernel surfing. The MAXX works great for me and I always have my Nexus 7 for JB goodness/pure Google stuff. The MAXX is the portal to that device and I wifi tether to the tablet all the time. Works great.

Just put ICS on it (or get the carrier ICS since Verizon has it out) and enjoy it. No more futzing with low volume, short battery life, etc. It just works and lasts forever on a charge.
I'm done rooting and kernel surfing. The MAXX works great for me and I always have my Nexus 7 for JB goodness/pure Google stuff. The MAXX is the portal to that device and I wifi tether to the tablet all the time. Works great.

Pretty much sums it up. Maxx is a great device. Does have some good devs working on it but until Kexec is working well I'm content with stock.

I had the GNex for about 2 weeks and dumped it for the Razr Maxx back in April. I've been very happy with the switch. At first it was a little disappointing because the Razr was still running Gingerbread. But after the ICS update there wasn't really anything I didn't like about it. Screen is a little smaller, but it's big enough. Reception, both voice and data, is much better on the Razr.
It's a pleasure to forget to plug it in at night and not have a dead phone when you wake up.

Sorry but the HTC HD2 takes that crown.
Just saying no offence intended
