By Verizon customers have had an exclusive taste of 15-20-hour battery life thanks to the RAZR MAXX’s ridiculous 3,300 mAh battery, but that club will soon take on new members over in Europe and parts of the Middle East. Motorola has announced that the device would be launching in those regions this May. The phone’s battery life is sure to be a huge draw for many who are sick of having to worry about finding a charging outlet throughout the day.
Motorola’s advertising 17.6 hours for this variant, a few hours shy of the 20-21 hours they originally advertised this device with. More than that, it’s still a pretty serviceable device with its dual-core processor and 1GB of RAM. Even with its dreamy battery, it’s still a sub-9mm device coming in at just 8.99mm thin. MOTOBLUR sits atop Android 4.0 but if US happenings are anything to go by you should expect Ice Cream Sandwich before too long. Read on for full press details.

Going to the middle east? I wonder if there’s an app for remotely detonating explosives; they’d make a killing off sales of that one
Too bad it isn’t a 720p display…other than that I’m quite digging the phone. But ultimately, no 720p on a >4″ display, is a no-go for me.
It’s a nice phone with some good specs, but unfortunately has something to lose on the screen aspect. No 720p on smartphones will become a deal breaker on the top of the line models..
