CORRECTION: Removed a paragraph about Motorola’s share price. That price reflected Motorola Solutions, not Motorola Mobility. Motorola Mobility was purchased by Google in May. Thanks, Joe!
Not to be outdone by Nokia, Motorola Mobility introduced three new variations of its popular RAZR smartphone this afternoon.
Motorola showed off the products at its first press conference since being purchased by Google in May. They debuted the Droid RAZR HD, the Droid RAZR Maxx HD and the Droid RAZR M. Each phone will use Verizon’s 4G LTE network. No HPUSA models were announced.
The Droid RAZR HD has a 4.7 inch display, 1.5 dual-core Snapdragon processor, eight gigabytes of storage (up-gradable via the microSD slot), a 2500 mAh battery and built-in NFC compatibility. The phone is also encased in Kelvar, making it resilient to drops and scratches. No release date or price was announced, but Motorola stated that the device will come out in time for the holidays.
The Droid RAZR Maxx HD has the same size display and processor as the Droid RAZR HD, but also includes a whopping 3300 mAh battery. Motorola says this will give users 21 hours of continuous phone calls, as well as eight hours of surfing the web via an LTE connection. The long-living phone also quadruples its storage size to 32 gigabytes. The RAZR Maxx HD will also be released before the holidays.
The Droid RAZR M is the smallest and cheapest of these phones. Going on sale next week for $99, the RAZR M features a 4.3 inch screen and NFC compatibility. It runs Android 4.0, unlike its two other RAZR brethren, which both run the 4.0.4 version of Google’s mobile operating system.
