Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX – Outstanding Battery Life

Given it runs on a fast 1.2GHz dual-core processor, comes with a hefty 8-megapixel camera and features cutting edge apps like MotoCast and MOTOPRINT, focusing on the size of the battery in the DROID RAZR MAXX might seem a little boring.

But the battery size – and therefore the battery life – is the main difference between the MAXX and its close sibling the RAZR which has been a best-seller for Verizon over the last few months.

And at a humongous 3,300mAh – compared to the RAZR’s 1780mAh – that difference is considerable.

What that means in real life is a 4G phone that has a talk time of 21.5 hours and a standby time of 379 hours on a single charge. If you’re a heavy apps or net user, powering up the Smart Actions app on the MAXX will extend your battery life to the maximum possible by automatically adjusting your Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi or other battery-draining features when you step into your home.

This is just an example, you can configure Smart Actions to suit your lifestyle. You might want to set the ringer to a lower volume when at work for example.

Just about every other feature of the RAZR MAXX is the same as the RAZR, including the sharp 8-megapixel camera (which can be launched directly from the lock screen), 1GB RAM, 1.2GHz dual-core processor, bright and sharp 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display.

Like many Motorola 4G phones, the DROID RAZR MAXX also has a number of interesting accessories available like a lapdock and an HD station.

With the Lapdock 500 the RAZR MAXX can be turned into a full laptop device with 10.1-inch display, full QWERTY keyboard, trackpad and up to five hours of battery life.

The HD Station for the MAXX lets you view your video, games or other content on a bigger screen via HDMI. You can also use any of the three USB ports to connect a keyboard, mouse or any other peripheral device for a full PC style experience. It also doubles up as a rapid wall charger.
