hey guys it's joe with pocketnow.com in our last video we unbox the motorola droid razr the thinnest smartphone to date well let's go ahead and take a look at the hardware that you can expect to see on that phone let's go take a look alright in our last video we unbox the motorola droid razr in this video let's take a look at the hardware now first of all this phone is very very light in a longer phone so it fits pretty well in my hands but they're a little bit larger on the back you can see here we've got this really kind of cool Kevlar backing it's not the metal backing that we're used to which should add strength and durability as far as weight though the Kevlar is very lightweight it gives the phone of a very light appearance but we're really shines is in its thickness see you here next to the motorola droid bionic which is a about the same phone you can just see the difference in in thickness it's a little bit longer the razor a little bit wider but the thickness it's about half the thickness of the bionic so very impressive up here at the top we've got the motorola logo which is black on silver most of the time that's silver lettering on a black background this they decided to call it out a little bit more we've got the logo on the back of the phone as well along with a little bit of some horizon information in 4G LTE stuff moving back around to the front of the phone you can see we've got a protective film here now this isn't just a protective film it's also an instructional film tells you what you've got highlights in this case the front-facing camera right here up front you've also got a rear facing camera on the back that's eight megapixels it defaults to 6 megapixel widescreen but you can change that has an LED flash as well so very very nice and then of course your rear facing speaker right here you can get your speakerphone and your audio out coming out there from the large speakers up here at the top of the phone you'll notice your standard input for a microphone and headset you've also got micro USB and HDMI so you can output to your TV over on the side we've got a silver power button this looks reminiscent of the iphones on-off switch but it is just a push button you also have volume up and down which does double duty as zoom in zoom out kind of hard to see that button so if we can get a different angle for you feels very good right under your index finger it's easy to actuate and has a nice tactile feedback over here on the back of the phone again you can see that the ridge the bump if you will that's what your rest your finger on to be able to hold it the bottom of the phone is completely empty there is a microphone jack near the bottom and then of course on the side you've got your your micro SD and micro sim port on the bottom of the phone you've got your for capacitive buttons that are very responsive i might add you will also have your little indicator that shows you where all of your hardware it goes and we'll take a little bit of a closer look at that so opening this door it pulls out and fold down and gives you access to the micro SD card and the micro sim know it is a sim phone because its 4G LTE on the phone itself for voice and 3G data is a cdma phone on the verizon network getting the micro sim out is not that easy we'll do a little bit of manipulation off-camera here to try and get it out it is spring loaded but it doesn't pop out as easily as you'd like so just go ahead and pull it out with your fingernails once removed it's a sandisk class for 16 gigabyte micro sdhc card the class for speed is a little bit faster than some of the others that we've seen which are class 2 or unrated you need that extra speed or recording HD video to the card and it's plenty big enough to record most of what you need as far as the sim goes this is a micro sim it's not the traditional large sim it comes on a hard you may have this pre-installed for you at the verizon store get separately like we did with our review unit there is a nice little diagram here on the front of this protective film that shows you how to insert the card it wasn't quite descriptive enough as you can see and putting that card in with a little bit difficult because it's hard to tell which side which direction it goes in now of course if you look at the instructions and pay attention you'll see that the gold dots go up and once you have made that realization and correction putting the card in and very easy this is spring loaded as well you need to push it in and the last little bit if you push with your thumbnails or a paper clip I can help you get the rest of the late in relatively easy once it's in and done close up the door it's resealed and that you are ready to go and boot up your phone for the first time which of course is what we're going to show you in our next video we're not going to need this protective film so let's get that off and get ready for our first boot alright so that was a quick look at the hardware that is the droid razr specifically what's on the outside now as we get further into the video series will start looking into the hardware on the inside and we'll take a closer look at that HD video camera 8 megapixels is very nice and 1080p video that's insane so make sure you subscribe to the video channel if you haven't done so already so you don't miss out on any of those videos that are up and coming if you like seeing new hardware make sure you give the video a big thumbs up so that we know you like these and we'll make more of them for you up next we're going to have the software first boot you don't want to miss that 4-pocket Nell I'm Joe Levi hm
