Motorola DROID RAZR M review: Affordable luxury

Following the success of the original DROID RAZR and its 3300mAh battery equipped DROID RAZR MAXX version, Motorola decided to add three new models tp the RAZR family. Launched at a glitzy event, starring members of Google's top brass, alongside the...

CDMA/EVDO network support ; Quad-band GSM and 3G support (available only outside of the United States with Verizon roaming) ; LTE network support ; 21 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA ; 4.3" 16M-color Super AMOLED Advanced capacitive touchscreen with qHD...

The screen is letdown by its ageing PenTile matrix ; No dedicated camera button ; Battery is not user-replaceable ; Absurd amount of preinstalled bloatware

Motorola Droid RAZR M review: a very good ICS handset in a small, Kevlar-wrapped package

More InfoMotorola RAZR M official: 4.3-inch qHD display, 1.5GHz dual-core, hitting Verizon for $99Motorola Droid RAZR M hands-on (video)Droid

Snappy dual-core S4 processor ; Lightly skinned Ice Cream Sandwich ; Exceptional camera performance ; Long-lasting battery ; Comfortable in-hand fit

PenTile display shows some jagged edges

Motorola's Droid RAZR M is a refresh of the best kind, packing S4 power, consistent performance and considerable battery life into an aggressively priced handset.

Motorola Droid RAZR M review

Last week, Motorola held a big event to unveil the "new Motorola," a supposed relaunch of the company after its acquisition by Google. That event didn't do much to show us what the new Motorola is...

Solid build quality ; Perfect size for one-handed use ; Snappy performance

Loads of bloatware ; Mediocre camera performance ; Boring, ugly design

A solid phone that could use a good dose of sex appeal

Motorola Droid Razr M (Verizon Wireless)

The Motorola Droid Razr M for Verizon Wireless is an excellent mix of design, performance, and price.

Small form factor with large display. Fast performance and LTE speeds. Good call quality. Relatively inexpensive.

Doesn't run Android 4.1 "Jelly Bean." Bloatware.

Processor, Android, and Apps Motorola won't reveal who makes the 1.5GHz dual-core processor that powers the Razr M, but my guess is that it's a Qualcomm S4. That's because it performed almost identically to the Samsung Galaxy S III, which is also...

Motorola Droid Razr M (Verizon) review

Not counting the iPhone, smaller handsets are a shrinking breed. That's why it's so refreshing to see a smartphone like the $99 Motorola Droid Razr M. Not to be confused with Motorola's upcoming Droid Razr HD and Droid Razr Maxx HD, which will boast...

The affordable Droid Razr M features a fast processor, a lovely screen, 4G LTE, and long battery life. It's also compact and attractive.

The Razr M's camera takes unimpressive images, and its battery isn't removable.

If you're not a shutterbug, the Motorola Droid Razr M's sleek style, fast CPU, and great battery life make it an excellent choice.

Motorola Droid RAZR M Review

Motorola has delivered what was promised in the pitch of this product. The Motorola Droid RAZR M has a compact and light design that is robust and should not shatter easily. There isn't a whole lot of internal storage (8GB), but it is possible to...

Motorola DROID RAZR M Review

Although it might not have the commanding presence as its highly esteemed siblings, the Motorola DROID RAZR M is looking to be a relevant device thanks to its compact form factor and impressive, nearly bezel-less display – while still chiming in at the...

Killer $99.99 price point ; Remarkable compact size, thanks to the almost bezel-less display ; Fast processing performance

Mediocre camera quality ; Still short battery life with LTE

It’s not the fastest, the most chiseled, or most cutting-edge DROID we’ve seen to date. However, when you’re getting an equipped smartphone that’s packing the same processing power as some of its esteemed colleagues there’s plenty to like about the...

Motorola Droid RAZR M

The Motorola Droid RAZR M is everything that the Motorola Droid RAZR was, but less. It's smaller and much less expensive than the RAZR was at launch. Despite the price, you get most everything that was captivating about the Droid RAZR: a slim design...

Relatively clean Android OS, very hand and pocket friendly

qHD display and plastics won't impress those looking for highest end stuff (we're not complaining for the price)

Motorola Droid RAZR M Review (Verizon Wireless)

Normally we would lament the fact that the Droid RAZR M's display is PenTile, but at this price point, it's still quite a good display. As a matter of fact, for $99 on contract , the Motorola Droid RAZR M offers a lot more quality than your typical $99...

Nice compact form-factor, great performance, LTE support, NFC, now available in white too, good battery life, good pricing

Camera performs poorly in lowlight and display is PenTile

Verizon Motorola DROID RAZR M Written Review by Taylor

The Motorola DROID RAZR M for Verizon Wireless is a perfect segue into the next generation of smartphones, ones that trade unnecessary bezel for more display space, and it's actually one of the finer devices to pass through our hands here at PhoneDog....

Small frame with a relatively large display; decent battery life; affordable subsidized pricing; solid design and build quality; fast wireless speeds; near stock Android experience

Display is visibly pixelated; poor camera; paint on the outer rim quickly shows signs of wear

The Motorola DROID RAZR M for Verizon is a surprisingly nice device. It crams a respectable 4.3-inch display in a chassis not much larger than the 4-inch iPhone 5. It's not the phone for pixel junkies or those seeking a nice camera phone, but for just...
