Motorola's Razr phone was a cult. Alone from the first model, the Razr V3, should have gone after the introduction in 2004, around 50 million units to customers in the two years. Then came the iPhone and the U.S. company could only dream of such success. Motorola RAZR is now trying to revive the cult - with a new Razr, which is quite different than its ancestor.
For while the Razr V3 clamshell phone for almost synonymous, stood a metal keypad and had been so compact that it fits well into small hands, his modern successors consists almost entirely of a touch screen. And who is so great that it even has trouble with long fingers to reach all corners of the screen. And yet there is one thing in common: The first was after Razr Razor (razor blades in English), named because it was extremely thin for his time, just razor sharp. The same applies to the new Razr: At 7.1 millimeters, it is as thin as most any other smartphone.
Klein is why it is not. The screen measures 4.3 inches that is on the diagonal belongs to the larger representatives of its kind with 960 x 540 pixels, it has a very significant resolution. Which ensures that much text fits on the screen that appears also cut nice and sharp. The hope that the display would appear due to the used super-AMOLED-Advanced technology is particularly brilliant, but not satisfied. The screen is good, contrast and shows rich colors, it is not outstanding.
Moderate-reliance, limited intelligence
The same goes for the camera. With its eight-megapixel resolution makes good pictures, but has problems with poor lighting, which she acknowledged with clearly visible noise. They can shine in high-definition video recordings that are recorded crisp and sharp. The zoom feature sucks though, because they do not work continuously. Will you enlarge a detail, jerky image gradually approach the desired zoom level.
Like many other manufacturers also installed the Motorola Android 2.3.5 system has a moderately modified your look has taken over. Here, the designers are, however, proceeded so cautiously that the additions do not interfere. First and foremost it is a few graphical effects that light up as you scroll between home screens shortly.
Better hide, while Motorola is a useful app called "intelligent action". This is a system that can be used to automate recurring tasks on the phone. Some examples of what you can do so provides, with Motorola. An action, for example, the morning weather forecast and automatically retrieves messages. Another one that mutes the ringer and the vibrate mode is activated as soon as you walk into the office, also sends an SMS back home when you leave the office again. Custom actions can be made of prefabricated modules together easy typing. Once you get used to it, may no longer do without.
Motorola promises Android 4.0 update
Quite correctly, the automatic action appears not to be. In web forums, there are several reports of users whose Razr with the error message, a process called com.android.phone had crashed, unsubscribe from the wireless network. Our test unit was the message several times, but not to understand. Some users report the error no longer step on when you turn off the wireless function, others, it disappears when you disable automatic actions. Motorola, which has held no relief in sight. A software update might fix the problem.
Let us hope that such an intermediate update is coming soon and the error is not only corrected when Motorola delivers the update to Android 4.0. That will give it such, has promised the group already in early 2012 to join the new software. Thus, the company has provided a strong argument for the new Razr. With the update notice can call it a forward-compatible. A predicate that can be given the sluggish update policy of many manufacturers have much attributed to a few Android phones. Even in well water
A guarantee that the Razr is a success, not the update promises. Sure, the new Motorola phone is a very special, because it is super flat, because so much can do it in automatic mode, and because it is not afraid of water. Motorola indicates the device - and its innards - are of a "water-and stain-resistant coating" protected. Of these, the device to dive into water, advises the company on anyway. Our test model, we still have extensively rinsed under a tap - with no consequences. After it had dried in detail, it worked again without problems.
A unique piece, it is not the same. Strong competitors are Samsung's Galaxy II and the HTC Sensation XE. If you are not focused on Android, as well as Nokia's Lumia 800 and the iPhone 4S . Easy it is to not revive Motorola, the RAZR-cult.
