All of these will be handled by Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread and a 1800 mAh battery to give you 12.5 hours talk time, 8.9 hours of video playback and power the LTE 4G antenna.

This phone also comes with many software for different tasks. The RAZR will be docked by Motorola’s webtop. A new feature that will be included is Moto Cast – a personal cloud support.
