Motorola's Droid RAZR MAXX builds on the foundation set by the original RAZR and makes a wide number of improvements to an already good design. Here's Phone Scoop's full review of the RAZR MAXX.

Motorola took the Droid RAZR and slapped a whopping 3300mAh battery inside and called it the RAZR MAXX. This Android phone for Verizon not only remains thin, but goes and goes and goes like the Energizer Bunny. If you need an attractive, powerful smartphone that will last all day long on Verizon's LTE 4G network, the Droid RAZR MAXX could be the Droid you're looking for.

Apple

What pisses me off is that when a company like Motorola can do something great like offer a 3300mAh battery in a small form factor, people are like, ok cool. But if Apple were to do it, it's somehow "magical" 🙄

Waiting on end of contract

When I'm eligible for an upgrade this May (yes May) I am grabbing this device. Unless Motorola and Verizon comes out with another huge battery 4G android (hopefully 4.0) device by then my eyes are set on the Razr Maxx. 🤤 🤤

Ear piece volume

Wonder why the Maxx would have lower volume than the original Droid Razr? 😕
Perhaps it'll be bumped back up with an update?
