As most of you know,
I'm a Motorola RAZR user.
The world's thinnest dual-core Android phone.
In this blog post, I'll share you the lovehate tragedy I have with the phone.
Let's talk about its weaknesses ok?
First and foremost, I'm a quick snapper.
Ask my closest friends.
I'm their best photo stalker ever.
The one with most photos of them, at least.
RAZR's camera is sucky for an 8 MP phone camera.
It needs better stabilization and colour settings.
Another weakness is its annoying telco information stucked on the notification bar.
I mean, I know which telco I'm using.
The image pinch zoom is laggy too. Seriously lag for a dual core processor power.
The screen is way too sensitive with the heat.
Sometimes, even without my finger touch the screen but close enough, the heat caused the screen to assume its being pressed.
and again, no dedicated camera shutter key.
The interactive buttons are smaller too causing hard time for me to precisely touch on them sometimes.
and worst of all, unremovable battery which actually become a nuisance thinking about how to hard reset the phone if it hangs although there're solutions for that already.
The things that I love about RAZR are its 7.1mm thin beauty with a unique shape that make the phone looks elegant and exclusive.
The KEVLAR back and great texture feel make you feel like it's a phone you can hardly let go.
The camera, despite the low light and indoor shots weakness, I found that the camera shoot is very fast!
Not as fast as the upcoming Galaxy Nexus but faster than the rest of Gingerbread phones out there.
The camera took stunning macro images too!
Being capable of shooting full HD using the primary camera and HD capable secondary camera, there's no excuse for you to say that the video recording functionality is redundant.
Having wider body than similar screen size phone out there is not a disadvantage but an advantage.
Gives you more gap when holding it without accidentally pressing on anything.
My grip fits just nice with the phone.
Using micro SIM is also not a disadvantage but also an advantage of being future-proof.
Let's talk inside.
The 1.2GHz dual core processor with 1GB of RAM made available for this beast is sufficient for at least 2 years from now.
Not mentioning the 8GB storage space available inside the phone that is more than enough for a smartphones and capable of holding more stuffs in external micro SD card support up to 32GB.
The hotspot function works flawlessly and everything moves smoothly other than pinch zooming.
The customized boot up video is awesome.
The volume and vibration is great for both indoor and outdoor.
The call quality and signal is above average and I dare say the best, so far.
So yeah, like the iPhone, it's not the best of phone but it is good enough for the other features it has to offer.
I don't recommend this phone if you are looking for something more powerful in terms of specifications and functionality.
But if you think what you need of a phone is not too much, but fair enough for some high end applications, this is a phone for you.
Why? Because KEVLAR back is 5 times stronger than steel.
Why? Because Gorilla Glass takes months of heavy usage before a scratch is inflicted.
Why? Because call quality is what you should look for as it is a phone.
Why? Because it fits in your palm and the display is Super AMOLED qHD which is honestly, good enough for enjoying movie.
Why? Because it's a phone with shape that people can differentiate from the rest.
Why? Because it is Motorola. The brand that first implement mobile phones. The brand that provides the best built next to Apple.
Why? Because sometimes, you just wish it all.
I miss you..
