When Google and Samsung released the much-anticipated Galaxy Nexus smartphone, it won several accolades - first for its Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) software and then for top-notch specifications.
The combination of good hardware and software makes the Galaxy Nexus a worthy contender to the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx, which was just released at the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) and boasts a marathon battery back-up. Both smartphones are carried by Verizon.
The Droid Razr Maxx, which is almost similar in specifications to the Droid Razr, is designed for customers who spend their days and nights multi-tasking. This smartphone is a marathon runner with enough endurance to let customers talk on the phone for over 21 hours straight on a single charge.
"It's the longest-lasting smartphone on the block, and at just 8.99 mm, the device is still impossibly thin. The Droid Razr Maxx comes equipped with 32GB of total memory," Motorola said in a statement.
