Review | 'Motorola Droid RAZR' : Thinner;Smarter;Faster;Stronger

Motorola has unveiled the 'Droid RAZR' smartphone - World's thinnest smartphone - at a joint event with Verizon in the New York City in a totally new avatar which combines the 'Droid' brawn with the legacy of 'RAZR' design.

Motorola Droid RAZR

This latest addition to the Verizon's Droid Lineup, after Droid Bionic, is 'impossibly thin' which comes with a 4.3 inch qHD super AMOLED screen with a Gorilla Glass coating powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core processor. But the feature that makes the phone stand out from any other in the World is its thin form factor. At 7.1mm(0.28 inch), the Droid RAZR stands as the thinnest smartphone in the world right now.

5 years later after the original flip Droid RAZR phone was ceased, Motorola has come up a long way to produce this hugely improved new version which is almost unrecognizable to its predecessor.
