Motorola Mobility and Telcel Introduce Motorola RAZR™ i to Mexico: Intel Inside® and an Edge-to-Edge Display
Say hello to the full-screen phone; the first Android™-powered smartphone with an Intel processor in Latin America
MEXICO CITY – – Motorola Mobility introduces the powerful Motorola RAZR™ i with Intel Inside®: the new full-screen smartphone that fits in the palm of your hand. Its Super AMOLED Advanced 4.3-inch display spans from edge-to-edge with virtually no border - giving you more screen with less phone. RAZR i is the first smartphone that can achieve speeds of 2.0 GHz thanks to a fast Intel® Atom™ processor. Jump from a game to a text and over to a playlist, then off to browse the Web - all without stopping and on a long-lasting battery. The new Motorola RAZR i is now available exclusively with Telcel with an exclusive launching promotion until Nov. 21 with no cost with Telcel 500 Plus Plan.
The power of Intel Inside means you also get an instant-launch 8-megapixel camera that can load in less than a second1. Just use the dedicated camera key so you get the shot you want. When there’s action involved, multi-shot mode lets you snap 10 pictures in less than a second. And with the LED flash located on the back and High Dynamic Range (HDR) capabilities, you’ll get a great shot, even in challenging lighting conditions.
"One of our biggest commitments to our customers is to provide ever-improving smartphones, with more efficient and innovative features like longer battery life and faster processors. Motorola RAZR i fulfills this commitment and it enables customers to access our Telcel networks with unbeatable coverage and speed,” said Marco Quatorze, value-added services director, America Movil and Telcel.
“An instant launch camera that takes 10 pictures in less than a second and Web pages that load blazingly fast on a device that’s the perfect balance of screen size that fits in the palm of your hand,” said Silvina González, marketing director, Motorola Mobility Mexico. “RAZR i delivers all of this, as well the first Intel-fast processor in Latin America in a beautifully designed phone with extra long battery life.”
"The partnership between Intel and Motorola Mobility has created a device that is everything people expect from a leading smartphone,” said Scott Overson, director, Intel Mexico. “The Intel Atom processor in the Motorola RAZR i enables you to smoothly switch from a game to a message to a music player to a browser, and to take pictures at an unprecedented rate, all with great battery life. It’s PC-like power, right in the palm of your hand,” said Scott Overson, director, Intel Mexico.
Powered by Android™ 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich (upgradeable to Jelly Bean), RAZR i puts the world of Google Play™ in your hands, with access to more than 700,000 apps and games. Get where you need to go with Google Maps™ for Android with free turn-by-turn directions and voice guidance. RAZR i also features near field communication (NFC) technology so you can send contacts, links, maps and more directly to compatible phones with Android Beam™. Just hold the phones together and tap the screen.
Designed with premium protective materials, RAZR i is built to go everywhere. A diamond cut aircraft-grade aluminum2 frame surrounds the display, which is made of Corning® Gorilla® Glass, to deflect both scratches and scrapes. On the back, RAZR i is made DuPont™ KEVLAR® strong3.
RAZR i already has a long-lasting battery – and when you set up the SMARTACTIONS™ battery savings rule your phone will automatically adjust to squeeze more out of each charge. Whether you want to maximize your last ounce of power, or prevent your phone from ringing during a meeting, SMARTACTIONS will automatically trigger specific actions. Motorola’s exclusive Guide Me app comes preloaded with interactive, swipe-by-swipe tutorials for tons of features – no instruction manual required. Also unique to Motorola, the interactive Widget Circles allows quick access to notifications, weather, time and more.
