RAZR HD and RAZR Maxx HD coming to U.S. next week Last month, Motorola unveiled their new Razr line of smartphones, three new devices aimed at the entire spectrum of Android fans.
The company has announced today that two of the devices, the RAZR HD and RAZR Maxx HD will hit the U.S. on October 18th.

Starting with the Maxx HD, the phone has a 4.7-inch, 1280-by-720 Super AMOLED HD display with 312 pixel-per-inch density and Motorola's own ColorBoost technology which makes for 'more vibrant color reproduction.'

The phone is powered by a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4, which should be as efficient and powerful as quad-core equivalents. Inside is 32GB internal storage and a massive 3300mAh battery. Dual cameras 8/1.3MP are standard as is a microSD slot, NFC, LTE and an HDMI port.



At launch, the device will have Android 4.0.4, with a Jelly Bean update expected before the end of the year.

The Razr HD shares the same exact specs except it has 16GB internal storage and a smaller 2350mAh battery, along with a smaller price tag.

Each will be available through Verizon selling for $299.99 (Maxx HD) and $199.99 (Razr HD), respectively.

Yea, but it doesn't have a removable battery, which is dealbraker if wanna remove the battery. Add to the fact that if you have an unlimited plan from them you have to pay the full price of the phone which imo, sucks cause they already have enough money from the overcharged plans they have. The CEO is just a greedy bastard if you ask me...
