If you are a big Motorola fanboy and have been waiting for the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD to finally make it to the shelves, the wait has finally come to an end. No surprise here though that a lot of our smartphone-crazed brethren are waiting for the handset to make its debut in the shelves – after all, the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD is a refresh of last year’s bestselling Motorola Droid Razr Maxx, still coming with the same 3300 mAh power pack for that incredible battery life but now with an upgraded hardware DNA and an HD display.
Right on schedule, the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD has made its debut in the shelves of Verizon last October 18. Should you be interested, you can now pick up one of these bad boys from the wireless provider at its going price of $299.99 with a new two-year service agreement with Verizon. The hefty price point attached to the retail package of the handset is expected given the fact that the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD is the current flagship device of Motorola and has all the bells and whistles you could ever ask for in a smartphone – not to mention the fact that you don’t have to worry about its battery pack running on empty towards the end of the day because you will always have enough juice left for the morrow.
However, reports are coming in that several Verizon-authorised retailers are selling the handset at a much cheaper price point so if you want to save some dinero in the process and still go home with the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD, a little digging on the internet is all that’s needed. Of course, if you go this way, you will still required to sign the same two-year contract with Verizon but you will be getting the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD 4G for much cheaper that its going price at Verizon itself.
