Seems like the Motorola Razr handset is finally having its due share of some official acknowledgement in India. After being made available through Letsbuy a few days ago, the company has now declared the official price of the handset in India.
The depth of the Motorola Razr phone measures 7.1mm, which apparently poses some competition to a few slim smartphones out there in the market. The 4.3-inch Super AMOLED advanced display is securely coated with scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla glass, and the body is covered with splash-guard Kevlar fiber as well. While the rear-facing 8MP camera is apt for clicking images as well as recording 1080p full HD videos, the front-facing one shoots at 720p resolution.
“One of the best-selling mobile phones of all time, the original Motorola Razr redefined what a mobile phone was as people worldwide proudly flaunted their fashion items,” commented Rajan Chawla, Mobile Devices business country head-sales and operations, India and South West Asia, Motorola Mobility. “With the new Motorola Razr smartphone we’re bringing sexy back in a stylish and sleek body with the power to create experiences you won’t find in any other smartphone. We expect style-conscious and technology-savvy people in India will be eager to get their hands on this new fashion icon.”
The Razr offering debuted in the US a few weeks back under the moniker Droid Razr, with Verizon Wireless as its carrier. But before that, when the images of the handset first leaked with the buzz about it going to the aforementioned network carrier, it was reportedly called the Spyder.
Embedded with a dual-core 1.2GHz processor, the interiors of this Gingerbread powered handset are also graced with 1GB of RAM. Additionally, the Razr comes pre-loaded with applications like the Motorola MotoCast and Smart Actions. MotoCast is meant for easy and seamless streaming of multimedia content from the users’ PC to the handset. The Smart Actions option is aimed at saving battery by allowing personalization of some settings.
The Motorola Razr price on Best Buy is Rs. 33,990, while the MRP suggested by the company reads at Rs. 35,990.
