A mere one week after it was announced in the US, Motorola Mobility launched the spectacular Droid RAZR in South Africa last night. This made it just the sixth country in the world to get the RAZR. Vice President and General Manager of International Retail Distribution, Spiros Nikolakopoulos and Megan Nicholas, Country Director for Motorola Mobility South Africa showed off the Droid RAZR.
There’s no getting around it, the RAZR is one lustworthy device, and a worthy namesake to the original esteemed RAZR that went on to sell more than 130-million units. Instead of the clamshell form factor of yore, the follow-up is a 4.3″ touch screen slate device. At 7.1mm thick, it’s impossibly thin, but doesn’t compromise on performance with a 1.2GHz TI OMAP 4430 CPU. Moto is touting its new Motocast “personal cloud” feature that allows you to stream media from your home or work computer over WiFi or 3.5G to your RAZR.
The RAZR has a Super AMOLED Advanced display and while it’s unclear how exactly it differs from Super AMOLED or Super AMOLED Plus, it does look vibrant and clear at a qHD 540×960 resolution. The RAZR has impeccable build quality with a KEVLAR fiber back, Corning Gorilla Glass display, “Splash Guard” splash proof design, and re-enforced steel internal chassis. The Droid RAZR and Galaxy Nexus are both incredibly impressive devices -- with incredibly different types of appeal. The Droid RAZR is thin and light, with lots of Motorola-made software customization; the Galaxy Nexus boasts a giant screen and cutting-edge software straight from Google.
