how did you do that?

6. KingKurogiii posted on 06 May 2012, 15:38 3

i bought it outright on craigslist and buried the price by selling my previous phone. i eventually replaced it with a certified like new replacement too.

the phone i bought wasn't in great shape so i just griped to customer support about the touch screen becoming inactive randomly which didn't really bother me much because locking and unlocking the phone would fix it but i felt like getting a fresh unit.

Craigslist has been my best friend. I've been trying out new phones every 4 months by selling or trading phones on Craigslist with people. It's awesome. You pay a little more up front, but save a hell of a lot of money, especially if you're with a prepaid carrier like Simple Mobile or Straight Talk. I'll never sign another contract again.

the device and the contract are separate. i used an upgrade on the Droid 3 and by a series of trades i ended up with a Razr.

The RAZRS are only on Verizon because they are DROIDS and DROID is a Verizon only brand.

If Motorola is smart, they would release the Razr as something else for the other carriers. Maybe even keep the name Razr, because I love mine. This is a bad a$$ phone, one that could pull them out of the red. But I have to be honest, I don't feel too bad about having an exclusive phone with VZW because what I originally wanted was the Note. This will hold me over until the Journal, Note 2 or whatever comes out. VZW better get us a 5.3 incher, or I'm walking!

My RAZR 1 usually lasts 2-2.5 days, I just pulled it off the charger, it had been running for 2 days 2 hours (50 Hours) Once and a while it lasts 3 days ( http://i496.photobucket.com/albums/rr325/BattleBrat/DSC05056.jpg )I'm not the only one either.

15. KingKurogiii posted on 06 May 2012, 16:33 0

i find those battery pages to be full of it. mine has similar stats but it doesn't last nearly that long. i use mine heavily and it makes it through the day but barely.

17. BattleBrat posted on 06 May 2012, 16:38 0

I assure you, It was 3 days, happens once and a while. Juice defender ultimate, don't go cheap, use ultimate. My Archos G9 101 Tablet running ICS lasts a week! Keep in mind, I also carry a 64GB 4th gen iTouch, so it takes some workload off the phone, but when out and about, the phone handles the music. The iTouch is mostly for games.....

do it!!

19. BattleBrat posted on 06 May 2012, 16:47 0

I keep mine in an Otterbox Commuter, I wouldn't be able to tell what color it was anyway :D

21. KingKurogiii posted on 06 May 2012, 16:54 0

i used to keep mine in a Speck Fitted case but the fabric got stained and my OCD wouldn't allow it so after many attempts to clean it with traditonal methods i tried to pressure wash it and it ruined it. i like it better without the case though so i'll keep it bare. replacements are just a minor inconvenience anyway. xD

I don't like that whole replacement attitude, it started with apple, where your music just happened to be on a device, oh, your ipods screen cracked cause you dropped it? don't worry, we'll just copy it and load it on new one for you, like it is just a husk for your music, made it feel cheap. I liked it when a device was YOURS, it was unique to me, like my Walkman X. I got the OG Droid back in the day, I still have it THE SAME PHONE. I use it as an alarm clock (That thing is pretty loud for a phone.) I plan on keeping my RAZR as well.

It's not about sentiment, its about something being so easily replaced like that, it makes it feel cheap...

on the contrary, it's satasfying to know that they value my satasfaction enough to just throw nice phones like the Razr at me. it doesn't really detract from the phone at all for me.

How would you be able to do that? Because I was thinking about exchanging my DROID 4 for a DROID RAZR. At the time I bought it I wanted a physical keyboard, but now that I tried typing on the screen I am willing to sacrifice the keyboard for a better screen and a thinner phone. Btw I got it two months ago if that helps and it’s in perfect condition.

28. KingKurogiii posted on 06 May 2012, 19:21 0

it might be possible if you get enough Droid 4 exchanges but they wouldn't want to because the Razr is still regarded as a flagship device. i'd be happy with the Droid 4 though. there's times that i almost decide to trade my own Razr for one. o:

I am, I just realized I don't need the physical keyboard. I've always had one and I now believe can sacrifice it for a larger screen and thinner phone. Don't get me wrong it's a great phone, but if you don't need the physical keyboard the DROID RAZR is better.

yeah, the build quality and the SAA display is what ultimately made me go for the Razr but i tell you what after coming from the Droid 3 which has a similarly amazing keyboard there's been many times that i longed for my keyboard. i still think about getting the Droid 4 from time to time. o:

Well I love my phone, I just feel like I can now live without the keyboard. I guess that the ability to actually choose your phone has its drawbacks haha. But I still would rather have the choice. And I know that feeling. I still think about getting the DROID RAZR.

if i get the razr, im rockin it without the case. f that. kevlar and gorilla glass? deal. im very good with my phones and ive never broke one, so i tend to buy cases only to take them off three weeks later. and how can you say phones feel cheap? manufactuers are doing everything possible to make these things as indestructible as possible. more and more phones are being made with gorilla glass which is shatter proof up to 12.5ft i believe. and kevlar can stop a bullet. lol not that all phones have kevlar, but hey it only takes one to start a trend.

he doesn't mean the phone itself he means the idea of just getting a phone replaced all the time makes the phone SEEM cheap.

Learn proper grammer and have you heard of this thing Motorola is making called the "DROID Fighter."http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Motorola-DROID-Fighter_id6996

35. KingKurogiii posted on 06 May 2012, 22:44 1

yeah, the Droid Fighter or Droid Razr MAXX HD (which i think is probably gonna be the sticking name) will be pretty beastly and will be the only real comparable phone to the GSIII if it comes out soon enough which i'm sure it will.

33. Berzerk000 posted on 06 May 2012, 21:35 3

I'm sorry to say this, but that was kind of stupid. Of course they have money. As mas11 said, the Droid Fighter is coming out, along with some other devices being released throughout the year we probably don't know about

40. thedarkside posted on 07 May 2012, 14:14 0

you clearly know nothing, about anything. this includes grammar and the cell phone industry. noob.
