The Motorola Droid Razr features top-of-the-line specs and somehow stuffs them all into one of the thinnest and lightest smartphone cases on the planet.
At only 7.1 millimeters, this isn't only the thinnest 4G LTE device in the world -- it's one of the thinnest smartphones in existence, period. With a 1.2GHz dual-core TI OMAP processor, a 4.3-inch qHD Super Amoled display, 1GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel camera with 1080p HD video capture, an LED flash, an HDMI-out port, noise cancellation capabilities, 16GB of built-in storage and a 16GB microSD card pre-installed, this phone is isn't just competing with other Android devices, it's crushing them.
As far as the design of the handset, the Droid Razr looks like the perfect evolution of the Droid family with a beautiful display sandwiched between tough Gorilla Glass and a metal chassis with Kevlar backing. The edges of the Razr are angular yet still soft, and the phone blends high-gloss finishes with a matte case-back.
The display isn't perfect. It looks better to me than the displays used on the Motorola Droid Bionic and Motorola Droid 3, but it's still a PenTile display, and that means it has a grainy look no matter how high the resolution is.
Colors look very good and are reasonably bright and vivid, though the screen doesn't compare to the likes of Samsung's Super Amoled Plus displays. Touch sensitivity was excellent, with the device instantly reacting to every touch event, swipe and drag.
Now for the negatives ...
