Hands On with the Motorola Droid Ultra, Mini, and Maxx
Motorola is going the way of BlackBerry
What is this
-No SD cards
-No quad-core processor
What are they doing over there, the apps that are popular will eat a dual-core alive. I am insulted that they put in their specs dual-core ( quad-core graphics) its a con it doesnt matter what the gpu is if the cpu cant handle the load.

Most apps are not optimized to work with multiple threads. Quad Core and Octa core processors may help for very specific business tools, or manufacturer's software. But most apps work fine with dual core processors.

No MicroSD?!
Do none of these phones have a MicroSD slot? That is a deal-breaker for me as I enjoy having a 64 gig card in my phone. Also would have been REALLY nice to see a Droid 5 finally, just take the Mini and stick a nice qwerty on it, Moto!

This is totally unacceptable.
We've known for a while that Google/Motorola doesn't like microSD cards. But no even having the option somewhere in the product lineup is going too far.

Where is my Droid 5 ???
I have been waiting for the Droid 4 update almost 2 years! I need better quality display, Android 4.2 (or 4.3), faster processor, longer battery life, and more.

Question for Rich.
Hi Rich,
I currently have the Droid RAZR Maxx HD (I love it.) and I'm due for an upgrade in October.
In your professional opinion, do you think the new Droid Maxx is worth it to upgrade over the RAZR Maxx HD from 2012 or am I better off just sticking to my current Maxx HD and saving the 300?
Thanks!

Droid Maxx Usable Memory
How much actual usable memory is available on the 3 models? I'm assuming that it's less than 16GB and 32GB.
SIM card
Where's the SIM tray?
Verizon site says "4FF Preinstalled SIM"
Yeah, this one can be deleted.

Nope. They have the Active Display thing instead.
If these are anything like the current Razr HD lineup, then the notification LED is actually that large bar at the top of the display.
