Motorola has just launched an intriguing new mid- to high-end mobile phone the Motorola RAZR i. It packs in a superfast Intel processor and has a edge to edge screen that means you can get a large 4.3in screen in a phone little bigger than an iPhone 4S.

The first name that springs to mind is the HTC One S. The beautifully slim smartphone offers a choice of ceramic or anodized aluminum for its finish, depending on the color you pick, and an equally big screen of the same type and resolution as the RAZR i. It also comes with a couple of Krait cores and an Adreno 225 GPU under the hood, which have the Intel Medfield beat at the benchmarks.

RAZR i by GSM Arena (Sep, 2012)
The processor is a single-core Atom clocked at 2GHz with Hyper-threading (a technology that improves multithreaded performance even with a single CPU core).

While the smartphone is hardly the longest lasting when it comes to video playback and web browsing, it blasted the competition when it came to talk time and stand-by.
RAZR i by GSM Arena (Oct, 2012)
Judging by the results from our battery test that's obviously true and the fact that the chipset is built on a 32nm process, probably helps.

Running on Android Ice Cream Sandwich, the Motorola RAZR i has access to almost all the latest apps in the Play Store and the ample built-in memory plus the available microSD slot guarantees you won't have trouble with space.
Read the review (Sep, 2012)
Graphics performance we don't expect to be quite so phenomenal but there should still be plenty of power for all the latest games, especially at the lower resolution this phone uses.

Screen

There's no denying that the choice of materials is pretty impressive for a midranger, too.

Wicks made a point that they managed to fit a proportionally bigger screen than Apple managed with the iPhone 5.
Motorola RAZR i | by GSM Arena (Sep, 2012)
Speaking of the screen, it's a 4.3" SuperAMOLED Advanced edge-to-edge display with nearly zero pixel response time.

Cpu

The other headline feature here is the Intel processor.
Motorola RAZR i | by TrustedReviews (Sep, 2012)

Motorola RAZR i | by GSM Arena (Oct, 2012)
App compatibility is another issue - neither Intel nor Motorola spoke too much about it, but you can bet most apps will work okay.
Motorola RAZR i | by GSM Arena (Sep, 2012)
Text messaging holds no surprises • Built-in emoticons.
Motorola RAZR i | by GSM Arena (Oct, 2012)

Video

Its dual-core chipset fails to match the Snapdragon S4 in terms of performance, but the 720p BRAVIA-powered screen easily puts the PenTile matrix of the RAZR i to shame.
Motorola RAZR i | by GSM Arena (Oct, 2012)
The video player is built into the gallery.
Motorola RAZR i | by GSM Arena (Oct, 2012)
The good news is that the screen of the RAZR i is large enough and of high enough quality for enjoying video content, so once you get a proper player, you can tyrn the smartphone into great tool for watching movies on the go.
