The Razr M isn't a bad phone, but IMO it isn't great either. Very B- from moto for one big reason. qHD pentile display. Granted it is $99, but Samsung and HTC are putting beautiful screens on their phones, and LG is really stepping up their game. Motorola isn't known for their displays at all but on their best devices their displays are very good, and qHD is poor by even Moto's standards. I mean, take a look at the HTC one-x display, then look at a qHD.. it's astonishing how different they are. After using qHD pentile on phones before, it really is worth the money to get a phone with a aettery display.

Now, it depends on your network what phone you could get, so I'll throw a few situations out there

You're on Verizon, you need battery life and you need a phone now - Razr Maxx HD. Very good phone and has by far the best battery life of any smartphone, there's no argument. You'll get at a day and a half on one charge. Now, if you can live with a little less battery life I'd very seriously consider the Galaxy SIII. Amazing phone, you'll get a full days charge on 3g, couple hours less with 4g

You're on any other network and need a phone now - HTC One X or Galaxy SIII. If I could have any phone right now, I'd pick a One X. Simply a fantastic phone in every area. Imo, the best smartphoneon the market as of right now

If you can wait, wait until the nexus devices are unveiled at the end of the year. LG already showed us theirs, more will come.

Or you could get an iphone if you want a mediocre device that does mediocre tasks in a mediocre fashion. I don't really have much to say about iphones, if you've used one, you've used them all.


In the end, take our advice into consideration but go to a store and toy with each one. Usually your gut lets you know which one you like best fairly quickly
