Yesterday I decided to purchase the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Thus far I am very pleased with my upgrade. An easily unlocked bootloader makes all the difference to me. I just wanted to take this time to say thank you to all the devs that have worked so hard on the Droid X2 and to the community that has been such a great help to myself and others.
Good luck your going to love the nexus father just got one. I love it in the next month or so I'm leaving the x2 for a nexus as well.

I just left the DX2 for a Galaxy Nexus as well, and it's a huge improvement.
Enjoy your GNex!
Yea my father is really rubbing it in my face right now such a nice phone i honestly thought it was going to be way bigger but its really a decent size and it feels a lot lighter then the x2
January 26th and I'm outie, heading to the nexus. You guys have been awesome.

I is sad
Sadly I'm out as well. Added another line so that I could get the Rezound, so I'll still have have the X2. I may play around with some roms from time to time. Thanks to nitro for his awesome work, as well as the rest of the devs!

I've been hanging on to my upgrade for a while and I think its time to use it. The two phones I'm trying to decide between is the razr maxx and the new razr m. I current am using a HTC incredible 2 which for me has been by far the best device I've ever used. I love it! Ill be able to get the razr m for 49 or the maxx for 100. Which direction should I go???

Maxx is a much bigger battery, HD maxx also huge battery but also has bigger display fit into the same form factor as the current maxx, also has a better processor

The new razr HD is a snapdragon

Just remember if you currently have unlimited data and you upgrade, you will lose unlimited. That being said I went from the Inc 2 to the Bionic to the Razr Maxx. I would recommend the Maxx.
If you're thinking about getting the RAZR Maxx, just wait and get the Maxx HD....it's better!! Bigger screen, HD display and Super Amoled HD, plus better processor 1.5 ghz dual core snapdragon S4. My Maxx lags!! ICS is great on it but it's NOT smooth. I wish it had that 1.5 S4 processor.
Even the RAZR HD is a good choice, probably will be cheaper like the skinny RAZR is to the Maxx. The RAZR HD has a decent battery. Why debate between the RAZR M vs. Maxx?
If I were you I would decide between the RAZR HD or Maxx HD. You will save money on the RAZR M and I understand we all like saving money lol. But I feel with the battery in my Maxx it was worth the extra 100 bucks over the skinny RAZR.

Size is one of the main reasons. Don't want a large bulky feeling phone. The razr m has a 1.5 snapdragon too and I don't wanna wait til November. So its either the razr m or the maxx...

My RAZR Maxx has a 1.2 dual core TI O-Map processor not a 1.5 Snapdragon S4. So they're different. If you're talking about the RAZR HD or Maxx HD then those run the same processor the RAZR M does.
They said the Maxx HD is the same size as the original Maxx, the screen is bigger, not the phone.

The maxx battery is the business!
The M looks like a great buy as well. If it had the maxx battery I would like one. My maxx is just on the edge of being cumbersome.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
just ordered the M right now on my biz acct only came to $129.99 for a 1year contract so leaves me open in a year if i need something more. consumer accounts are getting dicked these days...have to do 2 year plus looked at the GFs and they only offered it for $99 plus $30 activation fee... and shes been on a htc dinc1 for almost 3 years.
coming from the htc dinc2 as well, this phone is slightly smaller in overall dimension. the one thing i will miss is swapping batteries; had 2 extra plus el cheapo batt charger from onld htc dinc1.
im looking for smaller size primarily. been thinking about an s3 for a while, but wanted to wait out for the next nexus successor and get closer to pure android but after mucking up my dinc2 in water last week and using an old droidx all week i need to go back to ICS (had dinc2 on CM10 actually). dont need a gigantic phone so opted for the less expensive route. plus the s3 and M have same CPU and almost same batt size.
hoping moto goes the path of pure android soon...
Wonder if Verizon is going to get the HTC one x +... if so it changes everything lol

I'd go for the RAZR M. Much more compact, same screen and much more power than current MAXX. Nice when gaming. Most likely it will also receive new versions offcially for a longer period. Compared the standard RAZR it's got a 12 % bigger battery as well as more power efficient CPU, so should do fine though the day, even though it's no maxx
If gaming isn't your thing, go for MAXX. I certainly wouldn't call it bulky
If you can wait for a few more months and pay som more $, then the RAZR HD (MAXX) will definetly be the king. Even the non-MAXX version of RAZR HD should have a fairly impressive 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

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 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.

The razr m is a downgrade from og razr as it only has 8gb internal and i bet that only a 1gig is available for programs to install on. The og razr has 16gb and 2 gb free of internal storage.

Ok on the 18th of October their will be mass depression from motorola razr xt910 xt912 devices as we will be ostersized ridiculed and nade to feel like bums and all because we will no longer have Motorola's flagship device. Many people will get depressed over being ostersized by the razr hd owners. Some og razr owners may need medical attention and all to over come this.

The local church by me is offering a 13 step program on Wednesdays if anyone is interested. Its before the AA meeting and after the drug addiction class at 7 o'clock if anyone is interested. I sat in on RAM ( razor Maxx anonymous) the other day just to see what it's all about. We cried, hugged, ate donuts. It was a nice change of pace from the bar scene. Ha ha

I don't know, it's like some mornings I wake up sobbing. Then I get this feeling of impending doom, like I'm all alone and no one cares. I used to have hope when I would click on system update and something would download or I would read about an upcoming update. Now Moto rarely writes, only if they need some money. They shroud the request by making it seem that the money would be for a new better phone. But I know what it's all about, they don't need me. Good bye cruel world, it's just me and my Maxx now.

are you holding onto false hope that moto will send you a big fat galaxy razr nexus? Verizon may not be open to the new nexus certified program as google will control the update process. As we know verizon like to control the update process just ask the galaxy nexus owners. Apple is the only one to get a pass on the update issue. Perhaps Google needs to make sure that all androids no longer have custom skins and they all run the stock android and if users want custom skins they can download them like how they download launchers from the store.
I have two choices. A limited edition Verizon Employee Razr Maxx or the iPhone 5, which should I get?
Upgrading from One X btw and I love android.
Go with the razr maxx.

Haha , I guess you're right.
If I had that choice today I would pick Iphone. I have a RAZR and it's a fantastic phone, but after two years I'm bored with Android. I'd just do ios for a while for the variety.
If you're bored with Android you'll be really bored with an iPhone.
Personally, I would go with the Iphone 5 soley for the purpose of when you get bored with it after the first 17 minutes you'll be able to sell it for more.

Definitely go for the iPhone. Like others have said, you'll get it out of tour system and then you can sell it for a profit and pick up the Maxx.
I'm serious about this. I went to an iPhone last week because I thought I was tired of android. Within 24 hours I ditched the iPhone and went back to android. I really felt claustrophobia with iOS...and in the past I have liked iOS! I doubt I will ever try that experiment again.

If the only option is he Razr Maxx (not HD) or the iPhone 5. Then the answer is iPhone 5.
I own a Razr Maxx and I wouldn't choose it over an iPhone, but you are asking which one, which means you aren't sold on either.
That being said. The Razr Maxs is the king when it comes to not needing a charger.
