Motorola RAZR MAXX

The Droid RAZR MAXX offers an inelegant solution to the problem of battery life. It's took the Droid RAZR (which Scott reviewed a few months back), still the slimmest and one of the fastest phones to date, and filled that empty space with battery. The Motorola RAZR MAXX has a preposterously sized battery, 3300mAh, more than double the iPhone 4S’ 1432mAh battery and still larger than Samsung’s  Galaxy Note, a tablet/smartphone with a 5.4” screen. The battery in the MAXX is a monster.

Nokia 500


The Nokia 500 is a highly qualified Symbian Belle smartphone. It was first released on August 1, 2011, with all models available by the end of the year. It comes upgraded to Nokia Belle after 15 February 2012 onwards (previously known as "Symbian Belle") via Nokia Suite and over-the-air (some country variants) The Nokia 500 has had many problems since it was first released with firmware version 010.029, but it runs smoothly after the 11.33 update. The "Nokia Belle" update (software version 111.020.0059) improved performance with less latency and a new interface. Instead of a OpenGL ES GPU, the 500 features a simpler OpenVG GPU, so, even though 3D apps work without hardware acceleration, some 2D and vector apps, like Angry Birds, work correctly. Has no NFC (Near Field Communication) hardware.
