@daRKiERAWR The 3300 mAh is the extended battery edition of the Droid RAZR. No further extended battery can be added due to the fact that the battery is non-removable.
haven't really watched any phone dog videos in a while, and I've gotta say congrats to Aaron, I barely recognized you. Also who would go with the original razr vs the maxx, it's barely any thicker and the battery seems insane
Hi Aron @ Phone dog. Very nice job..... I am looking to update. Is Motorola in the works of updating that you know of. P.S The shirt & tie is a very professional look. From start to finish, Excellent.
I'm thinking about getting this phone and I've never had a smartphone so I'm used to long battery life (~2 charges per week). The main reason I'm switching is because I no longer want to type text messages with the number pad - it gets tedious as my texts tend to be long.
im switching from tmobile to verizon in december and i really like the big battery life but i want to have the nice features that some of the smart phones have now. is this still going to be new spec and screen wise?
I really love my RAZR MAXX BUT ever since they force pushed Ice Cream Sandwich (the newer Android Operating System) as an update, the phone has troubles. The network drops flat, while GPS takes forever to lock onto satellites. These were not problems with the previous operating system. This is even after a factory reset. I can't comment on phones shipped with ICS, as I got mine right when they came out, with Gingerbread.
Wow I might just get this. This is certainly on my list but I wont upgrade till april hopefully. There most likely be more newer phones out though so I will see by then
DAAMN!! You text super fast for a phone that has no physical keyboard. I'm amazed.. How do you text that fast without messing up a word.. well you got one letter wrong but that's about it lol. The reason why I don't like texting on screens is because you get so many typos and it takes longer to text.. but that's probably because I'm so used to physical keyboards. I can text like a maniac on a keyboard but not on a screen.
I just got the nexus and i have to say that the battery sucks. I am going to order the maxx today but i just have one question. On the galaxy nexus, the pentile display is so obvious and annoying. Is this screen less obvious and annoying? Love your vids! Thanks
I have the Droid Razr Maxx :) I'm super pleased with it too. It's realllyyy fast. Not hard to understand because when you first get it, you have an option when programming it in the beginning. Take the tour, or not. I recommend to take the tour. It's fun and will help you understand your phone very quickly.
around 7:30ish he talks about there not being shortcuts in the notification pull down down menu.. can they be added like through the android market or some other way.. they did seem really helpful idk why they would've tooken em away.. but anybody please lemme know
@xenocider64 No but you just might drop your phone. The Kevlar will help protect from other cosmetic damage such as dents, scratches and so forth that can make a beautiful phone turn ugly very fast.
had a very hard time finding it in stores around me like Best Buy...had to preorder it from Verizon Wireless and it arrived a week later...fantastic phone...fantastic battery...fantastic free apps...fantastic camera, touchscreen keyboard...no complaints at all...I have family in the "boonies," so Verizon is really the only way to go...cause I was a new customer, I got 4GB for the price of 2GB...had the phone since early February and currently am only at 1.4 GB
@NGVell89 i don't think he'll ever talk about it. Ton's of people including myself have asked. I think maybe he'll talk about it when he's reached a weight goal perhaps. Maybe doesn't want to get too ahead of himself. Great review tho Aaron. Keep it up. Your looking younger in every vid. Curious Case of HAIRRON?
Update is either out or coming soon for the RAZR and RAZR Maxx. It improves battery life, and 4G signal strength. go on phonedog.com for more info on it
Someone send this video to the guy that did the "review" and "hands on" of the Razr at slashgear so he knows what people actually want out of a video review.
I'm surprised the flimsy power/ lock button is not mentioned? My self get around 10-12 hours with heavy use. Unable to kill the battery?....come on now
Regarding the gallery: I had just picked up the my RAZR MAXX today, already knowing about the faults with the horrible gallery. Downloaded QuickPic; way better! Let me know if there are any other gallery apps I should maybe look into.
Great phone, though I don't like how it's as wide as the Galaxy Nexus but with a much smaller screen. Also though Motorola's Applications Platform is the best looking out of all the UI's in my opinion I hate Gingerbread compared to ICS so I wish it had ICS.
Best buy will help me get text messaging set up? WHOOPIE!!! I couldn't do that myself. It's like when they used to charge people to update their xbox's for them.
Aaron, there is crappy cell service in ALL of UNC Charlotte! It does not matter if its T-mobile or Verizon. I think they should build a cell tower in the middle of campus!
Help guys I need to choose between Iphone 4s and Droid Razr Maxx (Both Verizon) I have been eligible for upgrade for a while..need to choose now! please help
Hey Aaron, you didnt even need to complete this review after saying "This really is not different from the original maxx". Because you hit it on the nail, nothing is new about it. It's battery was increased by 200. They are charging 300$ for a not new phone.......
This is a great phone but because the battery is not removable that is a deal breaker for me I'll go with the samsung galaxy s2 with a 3900 milli amp hour battery by mugen (or mugan sorry I cannot spell) power.
@daRKiERAWR The 3300 mAh is the extended battery edition of the Droid RAZR. No further extended battery can be added due to the fact that the battery is non-removable.
Never stop being spectacular, Aaron.
Good phone review, Aaron! Also, congrats on the weight loss. How much weight have you lost?
haven't really watched any phone dog videos in a while, and I've gotta say congrats to Aaron, I barely recognized you. Also who would go with the original razr vs the maxx, it's barely any thicker and the battery seems insane
Instablaster.
Hi Aron @ Phone dog. Very nice job..... I am looking to update. Is Motorola in the works of updating that you know of. P.S The shirt & tie is a very professional look. From start to finish, Excellent.
Hey phone dog. Ive got one question. Will the same screen protector shield fit both phones? Thanks.
This is megga informational...!
@TBTech1000 Yes the razr maxx runs a 3,300mAh while G-note runs 2.5kMah

Specs dont always matter that much unless its an enormous jump like a single core to a quad. I would suggest going with what fits in your lifestyle.
do you know the release date? as far as i know, such a thing if it even exists is specific to china only. no guarantee yet it is coming to the states.

MotoBLUR seems to be so much more snappy now. Used to be so slow back in the day (Moto Cliq)
I've noticed Aaron's typing get faster and faster over the year or two.
first time hearing longevity. Im gonna start using that ;) good review
I just got the nexus and i have to say that the battery sucks. I am going to order the maxx today but i just have one question. On the galaxy nexus, the pentile display is so obvious and annoying. Is this screen less obvious and annoying?
Love your vids!
Thanks
I really want this phone! My Motorola DROID X is starting to get a bit slow but still a great phone.
hey i was wondering im upgrading from my iphone 4 to this probalbly i got a question does it only work with your finger like the iphone?? please help?

Droid RAZR MAXX! It's been my favorite, and I own the S3 and MAXX.
@xenocider64 No but you just might drop your phone. The Kevlar will help protect from other cosmetic damage such as dents, scratches and so forth that can make a beautiful phone turn ugly very fast.
Let's say you got it to low low batt,how long does it take to fully charge it
Whats the battery status widget thing at 3:49 ish middle lower part of screen? Thanks all
had a very hard time finding it in stores around me like Best Buy...had to preorder it from Verizon Wireless and it arrived a week later...fantastic phone...fantastic battery...fantastic free apps...fantastic camera, touchscreen keyboard...no complaints at all...I have family in the "boonies," so Verizon is really the only way to go...cause I was a new customer, I got 4GB for the price of 2GB...had the phone since early February and currently am only at 1.4 GB
How does it feel being slim like the original droid razr aaron??
which carrier is the cheapest with a smartphone. Im thinking about going to spirnt, but whats everyones opioin on the national carriers
Im really torn, i want this phone but ive been hearing the droid hd is going to be this phone and more but nobody knows when its coming out.
Ok so we know the camera suffers from having "washed out" colors. Is there a way we can correct this?
@NGVell89 i don't think he'll ever talk about it. Ton's of people including myself have asked. I think maybe he'll talk about it when he's reached a weight goal perhaps.

Is that a stock wallpaper? I want it
So it's the same exact thing as the RAZR, this one just has a bigger battery..?
will it come to the UK ????
Should i get this? razr hd? droid 4? or samsung galaxy s3
We love you Aaron!
You've gotten super skinny dude!
I'm in high school and have a iphone 4 what should I get next gs3 iphone 5 razr maxx hd or note 2 also I have verizon
when will it come in canada??? :(
how long is the battery life exactly? If i wanted to video record, would it last long?
woah. how do you talk like that fast and so much and its consistent and you don't stutter or say um uh like a lot?? add or cke?
how does it stack up to the droid bionic?
why did people not like the hump from the camera? Your hand normally isnt touching it so it shouldnt be a problem?
@weinerpoopify its the newest version for an android 4.0
Someone send this video to the guy that did the "review" and "hands on" of the Razr at slashgear so he knows what people actually want out of a video review.
When is this phone coming to att
When does this get ICS??
I'm surprised the flimsy power/ lock button is not mentioned? My self get around 10-12 hours with heavy use. Unable to kill the battery?....come on now
Okay, I haven't watched in a while, but did Aaron get SUPER skinny?
Aaron you look so young! Lookin' fuckin' snazzy man.
I wish they had a Droid 4 Maxx... Battery and screen from Razr Maxx, everything else from Droid 4.
Wooooow every phone company is gonna have to step up their battery game thank you Motorola
Regarding the gallery: I had just picked up the my RAZR MAXX today, already knowing about the faults with the horrible gallery. Downloaded QuickPic; way better! Let me know if there are any other gallery apps I should maybe look into.
What happens when the battery needs to be replaced since the user can't switch it out? .
Droid razr maxx or Lumia 900?! I really like wp7 and i like android to so can somebody help me ! :(
I love how every video mention how skinny he is lol @phonedog DO A VIDEO ON HOW AARON LOST THE WEIGHT
no lights on 4 touch buttons ?
AARON U R GETTING SKINNIER EVERY VIDEO
@phillysfinest94 hell yeah but i aint bout 2 switch from unlimited 2 a tier data plan
Great phone, though I don't like how it's as wide as the Galaxy Nexus but with a much smaller screen. Also though Motorola's Applications Platform is the best looking out of all the UI's in my opinion I hate Gingerbread compared to ICS so I wish it had ICS.
@TBTech1000 is that a real question?
@DCMAMMA If you like WP7, I'd have to recommed the Lumia. It really brings out the best of the platform, aside from being a fantastic phone.
selling on craigslist for $239.
what a awesome market for a Motorola phone.
In Quadrant about the same as the Tegra2 optimus 2x
Best buy will help me get text messaging set up? WHOOPIE!!! I couldn't do that myself. It's like when they used to charge people to update their xbox's for them.
Hey guys is the samsung brightside worth getting?
I have a 4s but someone wants to trade they have a razr maxx what do y'all think?
1:50 surprise surprise the price went down from $299 to $199
The battery is absolutely amazing.
Guys quick getting a smarthphone soon :) Im in highschool just to let you know. Iphone 5, galaxy s3, or droid razr maxx?
Aaron, there is crappy cell service in ALL of UNC Charlotte! It does not matter if its T-mobile or Verizon. I think they should build a cell tower in the middle of campus!
I wonder how much it would last on 3g
i wish you could redo the moto triumph i hate Sydney (sorry if i spelled anything wrong)
Help guys I need to choose between Iphone 4s and Droid Razr Maxx (Both Verizon) I have been eligible for upgrade for a while..need to choose now! please help
@Dharma818 there is
in fact its so fasst that you can here the police sirens outside because verizons 4g lt is "so smokin fast" haha good one
is battery life better than the G-note?
@davidleex84 that's funny im trying to make the same choice, i can't chose either
This video's running time has all the numbers in order. 12:34.
Love this phone best battery life ive got outta a android phone....
@greennick98 i agree but if aaron does a dog fight (i kinda have a sense he will soon) dont say i told you so lol
How did you lose wieght?
Is the camera good for TH-cam videos
HOLY CRAP!!! You lost like 50+ pounds!!!!! Good job bro!!!!!
Yeah...I might have to root so I can remove the bloatware. Then again, I am a new user. I'll root much later down the road once I'm a wiser user.
I'd steer clear of the iPhone unless you use iTunes and stuff like that. I'd go with the GS3 seeing as how it has the highest specs of the three. :)
Best phone I've ever owned. Using it right now to type this comment.
Hey Aaron, you didnt even need to complete this review after saying "This really is not different from the original maxx". Because you hit it on the nail, nothing is new about it. It's battery was increased by 200. They are charging 300$ for a not new phone.......
I heard the RAZR MAXX will be ice cream sandwich eligible soon, is that true
longevity, girth? waht are you talking about?
@phonedog: "My humps, my humps, my humps". #Epic
batteray?
Kevlar? It's not like someone's gonna shoot your phone.
He stole Justin Timberlakes wardrobe for this phonedog review lol
Where is part 2
You guys he's not getting skinnier he looks the same and he looks really really nice. Lol
This is a great phone but because the battery is not removable that is a deal breaker for me I'll go with the samsung galaxy s2 with a 3900 milli amp hour battery by mugen (or mugan sorry I cannot spell) power.
What's the best phone on Verizon in your oppinion
wasn't aaron fat last year? gj dude :P
