We review Motorola's Android-based RAZR rebirth
The rule of thumb for 4G Android phones in 2011 has been that they must be tanks: bulky, rounded-off devices that show exactly what sacrifice you're making to get the faster speeds. Motorola with the reborn Droid RAZR (just RAZR elsewhere in the world) not only bucks that, but has what it claims is the world's thinnest smartphone. However, it's coming into especially fierce competition with the Galaxy Nexus, Rezound, and the iPhone 4S. We'll see in our Droid RAZR review if it's competitive enough to swim with the pack.

I'm growing weary of my iPhone's 3.5" screen so I've started looking for an android phone to try. But I can't get past the lousy build quality (light coming thru the Galaxy II's button, the lame edges to this new razer) and lowerscreen resolution of most of the newest phones, even this review says the screen is a step backwards. Are we going to go thru the same thing in the phone wars as we did in the PC wards...ie Apple's clearly superior design but always very limited and lacking some must-have features (replaceable battery, larger screen size)? Give me a 4.3" iPhone with replaceable battery and I'll consider it a done done!
