XT912M, DROID RAZR, DROID RAZR MAXX, XT912 specifications

Motorola XT912, also known as the DROID RAZR, and its enhanced variant, the DROID RAZR MAXX, are iconic smartphones that played a significant role in the evolution of mobile technology. Launched in late 2011, the XT912 quickly caught the attention of consumers due to its ultra-slim design, which boasted a thickness of just 7.1 mm, making it one of the thinnest smartphones on the market at that time.

One of the standout features of the DROID RAZR was its use of Kevlar material on the back cover, giving it a distinct look while providing added durability. The device also featured Corning Gorilla Glass on the front, enhancing its resistance to scratches and cracks. This combination of materials made the DROID RAZR not just a stylish phone but also a robust one built to withstand the rigors of daily use.

The display was another highlight, sporting a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED advanced display with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels. This made for vibrant colors and excellent contrast ratios, perfect for multimedia consumption and gaming. Under the hood, the XT912 was powered by a dual-core processor, coupled with 1 GB of RAM, ensuring smooth performance for multitasking and running applications.

In terms of photography, the DROID RAZR came with an 8-megapixel rear camera capable of 1080p video recording, alongside a VGA front-facing camera. This setup catered to users who sought quality images and videos. The device's internal storage started at 16 GB and could be expanded via microSD, allowing users to store ample content.

The DROID RAZR MAXX built on these strengths with an impressive 3,300 mAh battery, significantly enhancing battery life compared to the original model. Users could enjoy extended talk time and media consumption without the constant worry of finding a charger.

The Motorola XT912M, primarily targeted at the Canadian market, shared many of the same features as its predecessors but included specific enhancements to cater to local carrier requirements.

All models ran on Android, providing a customizable and user-friendly interface supported by a wealth of applications available through the Google Play Store. With these qualities, the Motorola XT912, DROID RAZR, DROID RAZR MAXX, and XT912M remain memorable devices in the annals of smartphone history, symbolizing the sleek, powerful designs that continue to influence modern smartphones today.
