Speak to type One of the slick abilities that Android 4. As long as the Droid Razr Maxx has a data connection, you can dictate texts, e-mails, or any field where the virtual keyboard is present.
It's a really nifty tool, especially if you just want to fire off a quick note when walking down the street. The function worked well, too, and I instructed my Droid Razr Maxx test unit to draft rambling text messages my favorite kind to people, all transcribed correctly. A few times I had to wait a bit before my spoken words filled the screen, especially when the phone's cellular connection was weak.
The new version of the OS 4. Still, the phone definitely feels faster and more lively. Perhaps it's just the slicker animations in the menus or the new app tray.
Whatever the reason, the handset is more responsive than ever and I look for any excuse to fly through its menus and home screens. Another reason for my lack of self control is the Droid Razr Maxx's unreal battery life. I know deep down that I can mess around with this phone all day long and not have worry about losing power.
I haven't yet run any additional battery tests since the update, but my informal use mirrors the same marathon longevity I enjoyed pre-ICS. I doubt many people out there have really embraced NFC in everyday life, but it's one of the more futuristic features baked into Android 4. Called Android Beam, the parlor trick of bumping phones together to transfer pictures, video, and Web links is forever out of the Maxx's reach.
So, too, is fast pairing with Bluetooth accessories, something even Motorola products have begun to do. Verdict I can't say enough how much of an improvement Android 4. I know some Android addicts out there, including me occasionally, will yearn for Jelly Bean's fancy new skills. Even so, the Maxx now represents the unlikely union of modern Android software, fast Verizon 4G LTE, legendarily long battery life, all in a premium design.
Sure it's not perfect, especially its unimpressive camera, but thanks to ICS, this excellent smartphone just got even better. Be respectful, keep it civil and stay on topic. We delete comments that violate our policy , which we encourage you to read.
