Droid Razr Maxx HD?

Post #365,412 by Another Scott 10/22/12 8:22:32 AM Reply	Droid Razr Maxx HD? http://www.motorola....-HD,en_US,pd.html That is starting to look pretty good to me. It weighs about the same as my existing Palm Treo. It's big without being huge. Some don't like the metal edging around the screen, but that's been about the only criticism I've read. Other than some occasional stalling in the OS (which presumably will be addressed over time). It might be worth waiting for the next Nexus, but IIRC, Google is trying to phase out microSD slots (in favor of the cloud) and having removable storage is important to me. It is CDMA/LTE and GSM, so would potentially be useful while traveling (at least for voice). I wish it had 2 GB of RAM (one sees that coming in top-of-the-line phones). The Samsung Note II sounds appealing (I like being able to use a stylus, myself, after using one for years with the Treo), but I figure it's just too big. Thoughts? Cheers, Scott.

It's nice that the GS3 battery can be replaced, but not having to carry a spare around is nice too. The MAXX is a little smaller than the GS3, too. If the GS3 were quad core in the US now (like the international one is), it would certainly be a compelling choice. As it stands, I figure if I got a GS3 it would be "obsolete" quickly. http://forums.androi...d-maxx-print.html Decisions, decisions... Thanks. Cheers, Scott.

A couple of good reviews of the GNii: From the OS and features standpoint: http://www.androidpo...their-killer-app/ A weaker review; a comparison to the iPhone 5 features: http://www.androidau...xy-note-2-114698/ A friend who develops for iOS, Android, and BlackBerry said that the phone that gets the most support inquiries for his app is Motorola Razrs. His app is pretty memory intensive and he thinks there may be something weird about the memory bandwidth on the Moto phones or something. Oh well. It makes sense to keep waiting I guess... Supposedly the next Nexus phone will be an LG device that's coming Monday - Oh, but it isn't. Canceled due to Sandy - http://www.androidpo...cially-cancelled/ Cheers, Scott.
