Customer Review

Hello Moto, welcome back!

The RAZR HD is Motorola's newest high-end smartphone. And that is absolutely.

First time but in the delivery:

- Motorola RAZR HD
- Headset
- Charging Plug
- Charging cable or data cable
- Pin to open the Micro-SIM and microSD card slot
- Quick Start Guide (very short)

Equal first:

It only fit Micro-SIM card into the phone. But if you have a normal SIM card, you can this by means of a template (available on the net) also cut to right. Have I done so, and works flawlessly. Nevertheless, a real micro-SIM makes sense as this for a few contacts has on-chip and consuming less power. And since the phone is LTE enabled, you should also grab calm to a micro-SIM card with LTE function.

MicroSD cards can be used up to a size of 32 GB. Personally, I recommend at least a Class 6 - better still a class 10 card. The latter is very fast and fits well with the speed of the internal memory together.

The network coverage is - depending on the provider - good to very good. The problem with the antenna-gate is negligible when RAZR HD rather, since the primary antenna is on the lower side between the screws.

For RAZR HD itself:

What an awesome smartphone! This simply had to get rid times. The screen measures 4.7 inches. These are 11.938 centimeters. So really big but not too huge for your pocket. The smartphone itself measures 131.9 mm in length x 67.9 mm width x 8.4 mm height.

The resolution of the Super AMOLED HD is 1280x720 pixels, the pixel density is specified by the manufacturer at 312 pixels / inch. In addition, the screen is nice and bright. White is white and black is black. The colors are crisp, the typeface is razor sharp. The colors look very natural and do not shine brightly. Photos and videos from very really great.

The memory is 16 GB in size, of which approximately 12 GB are available for your own use.

----------------------------------
Display and Size: 5/5
----------------------------------

The RAZR HD consists of a unibody aluminum frame. The back is covered with Kevlar and beyond slipping. The display consists of Corning Gorilla Glass 2. The weight is really good sized with 146 grams. Not to hard but not too chunky or even bulky.

----------------------------------
Optics and Weight: 5/5
----------------------------------

All edges fit seamlessly home and each other. The smartphone is also protected against splash water. The corners are slightly rounded. The smartphone feels in your hand very well and extremely high quality to. Overall fit and finish is very good. Here Motorola has really caught up with other manufacturers, such as HTC or Apple. The materials used are a winning combination. So what I would have wished for the Samsung Galaxy S3.

----------------------------------
Processing: 5/5
----------------------------------

The processor, a Snapdragon S4 Krait with 2x 1,500 MHz clock rate, the system provides for a smooth operation. Mikroruckler are indeed When scrolling through the menu and available from time to time, but do not bother really. In addition, these are almost completely disappear with the update to 4.1. All previous apps, such as Office Suite 6, Maps, Earth, Winamp, Angry Birds RIO / Space / Seasons, Doodle Jump, Mutant Roadkill, Mahjong Artifacts run without stuttering. When zooming of Web pages with Chrome but there are sometimes minor stuttering. But that may be with Chrome itself. Tests with other browsers will follow soon.

----------------------------------
Speed: 4.5-5 / 5
----------------------------------

The operating system is Android 4.0.4 aka Ice Cream Sandwich has been installed. Motorola and Google have but promised an update to Android 4.1 aka Jelly Bean for the fourth quarter of 2012. It is very positive to note that no crapware installed. (Crapware are superfluous apps, such as games or programs that are installed as demo and mostly not even have to uninstall.) The system responds very well and quickly to inputs. Apps open and close quickly. Although the Mikroruckler above occur every now and then, but disturb the overall operation of the smartphone not noticeably.

Software and haptics: 5/5
----------------------------------

Even with a thumb the smartphone in portrait mode is to use. Cross actually is, as with all smart phones, both thumbs. The on / off switch is also serrated, making it easy to grip and highlights the volume control. A camera shutter in mechanical form does not exist. Basically, this is not tragic.

----------------------------------
Operation: 4.5-5 / 5
----------------------------------

The camera has a resolution of 6 or 8 megapixels. These are namely the two adjustable resolutions. Videos can even use up to 1080p + (so called the format in the camera) are recorded. I once took some pictures with your phone and stored in the Gallery. The picture quality is good. The cameras of the Sony EXPERIA series, including my predecessor phone Xperia Neo but make better pictures. A video taken with the phone, I still rich after. The recording is amazingly sharp and the sound in stereo. For snapshots and video camera is thus sufficient enough. It also features the HDR feature. (High Dynamic Range - High-contrast image), a bright and powerful LED used as a flashlight.

----------------------------------
Video / camera: 4-4.5 / 5
----------------------------------

The battery has a relatively high capacity of 2,530 milliamps and holds good by 3 to 5 days, depending on the use of smartphones. These include: phone calls, SMS, Internet, games, navigation, video, etc. The only drawback there is this: The battery is permanently installed and can only be changed by the manufacturer. It makes Motorola as well as other manufacturers.

----------------------------------
Battery / -Laufzeit: 4.5-5 / 5
----------------------------------

The music player is functional. There is an equalizer and emulated surround sound. When playing MP3s high noise is more noticed. The in-ears are used in my case, the Ultimate Ears UE700, the bit rate is 256 kbit / s. I have the MP3s not processed by means of a noise filter, such as MP3 Gain. This is what I get but by then am back again.

When playing videos of this noise I did not notice. Neither the internal nor MX Video Player. 720p videos are made on the big screen stunningly good. The higher resolution compared to the RAZR (without HD) makes absolutely noticeable.

The internal speaker is very loud and even with about one third of the maximum volume. So if you are the ringer volume is to half, is the ringing in the morning in the subway or the train really any passenger awake.

----------------------------------
Audio / Video: 4-5 / 5
----------------------------------

The silent alert is quite noticeable when you get the smartphone in your pocket or jacket pocket. If the smartphone on the table, it remains lying at vibrate thanks to the rubberized back also on the spot. Add to this that a light bar at the top under the Motorola logo, which also makes visually attentive to your smartphone. Personally, I find this big (about 1.8 cm wide) notification light much better than a tiny, little dot LED other smartphones.

----------------------------------
Notification: 5/5
----------------------------------

Among the connectivity options of course is part of the micro-USB port for charging and for data transfer. There is also a micro-HDMI port to get over the smartphone to the TV. At the top is the 3.5 mm jack for the headset, headphones or in-ears. Laterally the SIM card slot is a slot for an up to 32 GB Micro SD card. Both USB and the HDMI port are open and are not protected by a cap. Lint, crumbs, moisture can (not must) get inside the unit. But I draw from half a star, since splashes can penetrate right there.

If questions remain, please, to ask this, as usual, as a comment. I will promptly answer any questions about the RAZR HD within at least 24 hours and be happy to help.

My Conclusion:

Motorola has really managed to put a first-class and above all competitive smartphone on the market. Very good workmanship, quality materials, great software, fast and hardware patents. Thanks to LTE even pioneering. Thank Motorola, for such a great product. I like the RAZR HD really extremely well and I am absolutely happy with it.

Personal highlights:

A widget is called rings. This includes the time and date and alarm clock, the weather for their own location and other cities, the battery charge status. Practical part is that you can save apps like the Battery Indicator and AccuWeather. The widget takes namely himself back on the AccuWeather data.

The Smart Actions function is as ingenious as simple. Example: You create an action for a night mode. From 00.00 bis 05.00 clock all sounds are off, the data connection is disconnected, all services are in the sleep mode to conserve battery power. Or to disable all sounds in certain places. This can be set in which you add a location (place of work) and determined that from the moment the smartphone is to be silent.

Or you can create a Smart Action for the mobile Internet. If the screen is activated, also the Internet enabled. If they lock the screen or he goes out of himself, even the Internet is disconnected. This feature saves as the app Juice Defender.

Motorola has installed its own file manager. This can even access remote servers on the network. Thus, you can see the app file manager (in the Play Store) also sidelined leave.

An audible signal when the battery is fully charged. From 15% residual energy, the smartphone automatically logs anyway.
