Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted March 19, 2013 Super User Posted March 19, 2013 Just got a Razr HD and for the life of me cannot figure out how to use the firefox browser to work on this site. I prefer firefox for many things phone internet related however this is not one of them. As for the phone itself. I really like the UI on it. The processor is quite spunky and quick. I love the weight and feel of the phone as well. The Aesthetics are very appealing and the Kevlar back plate is quite a nice touch too. it all wrapped up in a otter box so you really cant see the niceities on it. Battery life is about par with most the other smart phones Ive used as well. Ill update more on it as i continue to play around with it. Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted March 19, 2013 Super User Posted March 19, 2013 I always use FIrefox, but on smartphones I have had better luck with the Chrome browser. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted March 20, 2013 Super User Posted March 20, 2013 I bought about 2 months ago a razr M for my wife and a Razr Maxx for myself. I really like the Maxx, under average usage in a 24 hour period I use no more than 40% battery, recharge time seems pretty quick too. I've played with several browsers, chrome and dolphin to name 2, but I went back to the stock browser, seems best for me. Even though the Maxx is a discontinued model with a 1.2 processor as compared to some of the newer ones at 1.5, it's still plenty fast. Some of the newer ones either come with jelley bean or have already been updated to it, the Maxx has ice cream and really doubt I'm going to update, for me I don't see the need. I really like the entire Motorola line up. The technology has improved so much in the last couple of years, it boils down to personal choice, almost all of them work great these days. One the best places to get insight are Android forums, specifically for the Razr HD. Quote

I figure in my line of work if it makes it even a little bit water proof then its worth it. At least as far as being exposed to the elements goes. The major thing that brought me back to Motorola is the size of the onscreen letters and numbers. Having enormous gorilla hands, the larger letters make typing easier. I. Gonna head over to android forums and check them out in the morning. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted March 21, 2013 Super User Posted March 21, 2013 As far as ruggedness nothing I have owned in the past or checked out for a future purchase was superior to my Casio Commando, even the quality from the earpiece on a phone call was the best I had. Can drop it, submerge it and all was well, battery life wasn't that good. Had it not been for a small 3.6" screen and slow internet response and a few other conveniences, I may have just kept in service. A lot of answers here http://androidforums.com/ Quote

Super User SirSnookalot Posted March 23, 2013 Super User Posted March 23, 2013 Safari and iPhone, enough said. What's this have to do with an inquiry on a Motorola product that's already been purchased? Quote

Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted March 25, 2013 Author Super User Posted March 25, 2013 Should have joined the dark side. It a lot easier to operate. Tisk tisk. I was wondering when you were gonna start in on my new Droid. I have an easy enough time operating on the android system. Its the new UI that is different than Samsung that was giving me grief. Its all better now though thanks to Snook's advice I am beyond living this new phone. However my parents did get iPhones last weekend. Under extreme protest I set them up for them. For whatever reason I just can't get used to iOS. It took me forever to figure out how to get them set up. Now to return to playing with my new phone. Should you ever decide to get rid of your tiny screened device and experience the TRUE power of what a phone can do. Let me know. Quote
