I'm seriously getting sick and tired of hearing all these people calling the RAZR a rental phone until the Nexus comes out. I guarantee you guys, the Nexus won't be all that. All it has going for it is ICS and that won't mean anything after the RAZR gets it too. Don't like the RAZR? Go back to your iPhone 4 if the RAZR is a "serious downgrade".
Only reason I'm on my Razr is because I sold my iPhone 4 while it held onto resale value ($400, which is awesome)
Only reason I didn't go with the 4S on my upgrade is because I wanted to try out Verizon 4G and it is NICE.
Only reason I'm not going right back to 4S is because Galaxy Nexus is coming soon (and will have 4G). The Galaxy doesn't need to be iOS. It just needs to be a FINISHED SOFTWARE product. Gingerbread clearly is not and does not and will never feel like it with its lag filled heaven.
The Razr has hardware issues, and they can't be fixed by ICS. Non-removeable battery is no problem (iPhones) but Weak non-removeable battery... I feel bad for you owners who are going to be getting your batteries replaced because you will have gone through 200 charge cycles in less than a year. Who's going to do it? Motorola? Verizon? Both are completely worthless companies from customer service.
Terrible sound jack. Inferior screen. Dropping radio (A motorola issue?). It also has a weaker CPU & GPU. There's basically no reason to own one next to a Nexus because everything is worse than the Nexus.
Except thinness. And um... removeable SD card. (Which is becoming more and more pointless with everything being Cloud-based now).
I find it funny how defensive owners become of their purchase decisions. Well I must be the exception because owning owe doesn't mean jack when I can turn it around and return it or sell it. And it feels completlely like I went from a Mercedes (iPhone 4) to a Hyundai. Yes, the Hyundai has some new features in it, but it's just clearly a downgrade in experience. The only issue people have of upgrading to a 4S is that it make it feel like a more expensive Mercedes, not the Bentley we all wanted it to be (an iPhone 5). Well I'm hoping the Galaxy Nexus will be a good high end alternative, maybe a nice change of pace with a Porsche, while I'm waiting for the iPhone 5 to drop to get the Bentley experience.
I'm done with the Motorola experience for sure and forever after this one.
