Oh look! Another Droid RAZR handset for Verizon. No, it’s not the Droid RAZR HD, but the Droid RAZR M. While no one was asking for this phone, it does add a decent mid-range device to Verizon’s portfolio without sacrificing on the specs.
The Droid RAZR M comes in with a 4.3 inch qHD Super AMOLED Advanced display, along with a dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, 8 megapixel camera, 1GB of RAM, 8GB internal storage, microSD card slot, NFC, and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. For whatever reason, Motorola threw in a 3 megapixel front-facing camera onto the RAZR M, which is pretty unusual. That said, our experiences with the cameras on Motorola’s smartphones have been below average, so we’ll have to see if this front-facing shooter is worth the pique in interest. Jetsetters can also look forward to the Droid RAZR M’s global roaming capabilities, ans you can also expect some extra durability with the Gorilla Glass 2 covered screen.
What looks to be the fourth RAZR handset in less than a year, the name is surely being bled dry by Big Red. Of course, using the RAZR name is great for branding, but now the name isn’t limited to high-end devices, it might not remain so flashy as time goes on. Oh well.
With the full details leaking like this, we can only imagine that the RAZR M is bound for launch anytime soon. With an event coming up on September 5th in New York City, Motorola could give us two new RAZR handsets, and not just the anticipated RAZR HD.
