    Motorola DROID MAXX, Black 32GB (Verizon Wireless)

    • This thing just blows my mind...and it even makes phone calls.
    • They can pretty much all do amazing things, but no matter what a phone can do, what good is it if you have to worry about making it through a busy day, or "ration" out your phone use to stretch battery life?
    • I'm even going to give them a star back, but the phone, in my opinion was priced as a flagship best thing on the market, and it was pretty disappointing for the price.
    • Seems like a lot of hot new phones out there like Samsung and Apple compete to come up with the latest "gee whiz" features for people to ooh and ahh over, but seriously how useful and practical are things like eyeball tracking or thumbprint ID?
    • So while there are a few things I would change (the vibrate thing, enhancing the camera, adding a microSD slot), I can solidly say that this phone is, in my opinion, the most compelling upgrade you can buy on the market today - a battery that cannot be beat, a feature-set that's unmatched by rivals, and an overall user experience that is just quick and easy to use.
    • I have had this phone since it came out and funny how like other Verizon products, 6 months before my contract is up its starting to do strange things
    • The best thing about this phone, and maybe others have this, is that you can set it to read text messages to you and then respond by voice while driving
    • That's both a good thing and a bad thing
    • I've also read that an occasional drain on the battery can be a good thing (somehow).
    • Wireless charging and active notifications are great things to have and can no longer imagine a phone without those features
    • The two things about this smart phone that I suppose you could consider as negative are that it's not very exciting looking like the HTC One or S4.
    • I've ever had I love this thing.
    • There are so many cool thing to mention about this phone, wh6 ruin it in a review

    • /durability - As with most motorolas, this thing is a tank!!!
    • Wow, can't say enough good things about the battery

    • That's both a good thing and a bad thing
    • " Aside from all the other amazing things this phone does, the battery alone is a gamechanger, really liberating.
    • But the thing worked like a champ despite being bashed to hell!

    • The two bad things, and only two that I have seen, is that the Bluetooth cuts out for a second from time to time and the phone has issues charging from a standard charger at times.
    • On a side note, another thing I wish the phone wouldn't do is vibrate on every notification when the phone is set to vibrate only - meaning that if you have your gmail notification set to not vibrate, if you have the phone on vibrate only, a Gmail will make the phone vibrate.
    • a gmail/Google guy, so if you have a gmail account, this thing synchronizes everything very well.
    • This thing ia ridiculously durable
    • While other phones have things like LG's "Knock Knock" or the S4's "Air View" or whatever it is, these are things I actually use
    • The nice thing is that with Touchwiz/Sense, some RAM is used up since it's basically a "skin" on stock android, here, you don't have that
    • This phone has a great battery life but that's about the only positive thing I can say about it.
    • The feature just feels like it's an early thing.
    • I guess Google buying Motorola has been a good thing because this phone is the best I've seen produced by anyone.
    • It's true that I can get 48 hours, but that's with the screen down to 30% brightness and what I would describe as fairly minimal use (with strong 4G signal throughout).
    • Now, with the Maxx, I have a solid 4G signal at all times at work - this makes me really happy.
    • -115 to -120 range, this results in me completely losing 3G and 4G connectivity
    • It seems that in marginal 4G areas (like that signal-quashing basement I mentioned), turning the Droid Maxx to landscape mode and holding it with both hands causes it to show a drop of 5 to 10 dBm off the signal strength meter (Settings

    • I tried to run it on gsm network in meddle East and its working fine and the 3g also work fine and good speed.
    • antenna would consistently go to zero bars (yet, frustratingly, not lose it completely and therefore would not switch over to the strong 4G signal), I now
    • If I have one wifi bar that's trickling data, and a 3-bar 4G signal available, the choice should be obvious - No problem with Bluetooth connections; I'm stoked that I now have full integration with my Ford's Sync system, with artist/track tagging from Pandora, and read-out-loud messaging with canned replies - Voice call quality overall is excellent
    • 4G LTE all around the hospital, and even still good 3G reception in the basement
    • because the 4G will not work just like what happened with me even the phone is unlocked
