The Droid Razr M is an Android-based, 4G LTE-capable smartphone designed by Motorola as a smaller successor to the Droid Razr.

History

The lower-end Droid Razr M was announced along side the Droid Razr HD and Razr Maxx HD on 5 September 2012. The Razr HD and M models ship with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). They will be upgradable to Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean). [2]

Developer Edition

A Developer Edition will be sold, which will have an unlocked bootloader.

Razr i

The Razr i is an almost identical edition except it has an Intel Atom Z2460 processor. This means it will be better than the RAZR M in processing power, imaging power, and battery life, however it will lack LTE support[3][4][5] It will also not fully support many high-end apps and games designed for ARM processors until these apps or games are recompiled for Intel compatibility.[6]

The GPU in the Razr i's Intel Atom Z2460 processor is a PowerVR SGX540, a faster-clocked version of the same GPU as in the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and many older smartphones such as the original Samsung Galaxy S. While the Razr i's raw CPU processing power will be excellent for tasks such as web browsing, its GPU will be considerably slower than the Razr M, which uses a Snapdragon S4 CPU featuring an Adreno 225 GPU.[7] This may be alleviated somewhat by the Atom Z2460 being capable of providing much greater memory bandwidth, which has traditionally been a severe performance-constraining factor in ARM-based chips.[8]
