So we all know that Moto has promised to upgrade the Razr in the first half of '12.
What does that actually mean?
Since I'm coming from a fairly skin-less Orig Droid, I'm used to a more native android environment. The Razr seems to have a deeply-skinned interface with Blur- which seems to show it's look and feel completely throughout the os.
So when the upgrade happens what will we see-
-still the same exact motoblur skin, with just the backend ics platform being more efficient?
-will they revise the motoblur skin to accommodate the increased features? ie- more camera settings, Active App view, new notification swiped removal etc, but the look and feel stays completely MotoBlur?
-or will we see the new look and feel of ICS?
I have to admit a pure ICS experience is pretty appealing based on the demos we've seen- it is the first time Google has seemed to truly get it when it comes to interface design. I'm planning on getting the Razr, and I can easily wait 6 months for the ICS upgrade, but I'm concerned that a lot of the magic of ICS will get lost in how it is ported into RAZR.
