Droid Razr Maxx review

The Droid Razr Maxx is the newest Razr to release on the Verizon network in the US. It takes everything you love about the Droid Razr, and fattens it up a bit with a whopping 3,300 mAh battery. In this review we've concentrated on the improved battery in this model. For other aspects of this phone's performance, check out our full Droid Razr review. That improved battery is one that's capable of 21 hours of talk time on a single charge. And while we're excited to finally disconnect from that required midday charge, the true power of a battery that size comes in the form of 7 hours of LTE browsing per charge. So what will that extended battery cost you? Fractions of an inch (and an extra hundred bucks).At just 8.99 mm thin, the Razr Maxx is still incredibly thin - just maybe not as "impossibly thin" as the Motorola Razr. It also weighs a bit more. The original Droid Razr weighs 127 grams. At 145 grams, the Droid Razr Maxx is slightly bulked up but hardly fat. For perspective that's only 10 grams more than the Galaxy Nexus, and 35 grams less than the recently released Droid 4. For some, this slight increase in weight might actually make the phone feel better in the hands.We mentioned in our Razr review that the deep bezel made the phone's 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display appear smaller than it really was, and the Razr Maxx does nothing to rectify this. Though, we can't really complain about the Razr Maxx's body. It feels almost as good as its super-thin Maxx-less cousin, and that's saying something.
