I just requested the Razr Maxx due to the extended battery life and faster processor. Hopefully I can get it today. I'm upgrading from the original droid so this will be worlds better than what I have.

Thanks again!

Oh and the Bionic supposedly has the TI OMAP4430 CPU instead of the Tegra 2 so it was supposed to be pretty nice.

That's right, it was the Atrix that was the Tegra 2. Those were mirror phones, but the Bionic got pushed back 5 months and Motorola changed the processor. All the sites I was doing a quick comparison with just listed it as Dual Core, no specs. If that's the case, processor is a push, then. although the Razr and Maxx are clocked at 1.2 Ghz vs 1.0 Ghz (but you could change that easily with rooting ... if you were so inclined).


Another point I'd make, which I neglected to mention earlier, is the Razr is going to get Ice Cream Sandwich (very soon) and future updates as well. The Bionic is, in tech terms, older and will take longer to get updates (if at all).

If that's the case, then I'll rank the ones you listed, taking into account age of the devices (From initial launch), specs (most use Tegra 2 processors, which are outdated), form factor, etc. Really, there are only 3 phones I would consider out of that list. The rest are really too old from a technical standpoint to justify buying at this point in their service life. 1. Motorola Razr Maxx (Jan 2012) - Newer 1.2 GHz TI OMAP4430 dual-core processor 2. Droid Bionic (Sept 2011) - 1.0 Ghz Tegra 2 dual-core processor (over 18 months old processor) 3. Droid 4 (Jan 2012) - Same specs as Razr but with sliding keyboard and 4" screen) Others Motorola Razr (Nov 2011) - Same as Maxx but smaller battery Incredible 2 (May 2011) Droid X2 (March 2011) Droid Charge (Jan 2011) Droid 3 (July 2011) You may find this site helpful. It's great for getting and comparing specs. http://www.phonearena.com/phones#/phones/carrier/Verizon/flt/8,17 I also like PhoneScoop.com 4/20 1:00 PM | IP: Logged
