We know what you were thinking when the 7.1 mm thin Motorola Droid Razr was first unveiled, “how the heck did they fit everything in there?”  We were thinking the same thing, especially when they announced that there would be LTE radios on board.  Well, the good folks over at the Engadget Mobile team put together a little “under the [...]

[Leak] RAZR-like Motorola DROID 4 pictures appear

by Robert Nazarian
tagged , , , , , , ,

The DROID keyboarded series has been one of the most popular Android phones, but the DROID 3 hasn’t wowed us enough, mostly because it lacks 4G LTE.

Motorola and Verizon certainly did not fail to impress us today at this afternoon’s unveiling of the Motorola DROID RAZR.  And Talk Android’s own EIC, Rob Nazarian,  was there to capture it all.  The device is the thinnest we’ve seen so far coming in at an “impossibly thin” 7.1mm.  And no, that is not a [...]
