Why Motorola's DROID RAZR MAXX is the Best Android on the Market

5) DROID RAZR MAXX's Powerful Processor

The Texas Instruments (TI) OMAP 4430 1.2GHZ dual-core processor packed into the DROID RAZR MAXX is a top-of-the-line mobile device processor, and makes the device run like a dream, with little lag even when playing large, HD video files or performing multiple resource-intensive tasks at a time. The Galaxy Nexus packs a slightly more powerful IT OMAP 4460 processor, but I honestly don't think the Galaxy Nexus needs a faster processor; I experienced little or no lag at all, and graphics were beautiful with the processor Motorola included. That may change when the RAZR MAXX is upgraded to Android 4.0, a.k.a., Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS), but for now I'm completely satisfied with the current processor. (More powerful isn't always necessarily better.)

6) Great 8MP Camera with LED Flash on the DROID RAZR MAXX

The eight-megapixel rear-facing camera on the RAZR MAXX is one of the better digital cameras I've found on a mobile device, and it offers users a variety of customization options to help tailor your pictures to your environments. (For comparison, the Galaxy Nexus has a 5MP camera and the iPhone 4S shooter is also 8MP, though MP count really isn't an accurate measure of digital-camera quality.) I captured a ton of great pics with the RAZR MAXX, and I was pleased with the overall image quality and 1080p HD video I grabbed. It has a front facing, 1.3MP camera meant mostly for video chat sessions, which the RAZR MAXX does quite well via Wi-Fi or 4G.
