Verizon Wireless today announced the Droid Ultra, Droid Mini, and Droid Maxx, all made by Motorola.
The Ultra is thinner than last year’s RAZR HD, at almost 7 mm thin, which Verizon calls the world’s thinnest LTE smartphone. The Maxx is thinner than last year’s RAZR Maxx HD, yet has more battery life (48 versus 32 hours.)
The Mini replaces the RAZR M, and is the smallest and cheapest of the three. The Ultra and Maxx have 5-inch displays, while the Mini has a 4.3-inch display. All have a unique processor configuration that allows sensors and voice activation to operate while the phone is idle.
The Ultra and Maxx have AMOLED displays that can activate just a small section to show time and notifications while using minimal battery life. The Mini has a TFT LCD display. All three have 10-megapixel main cameras, plus front cameras.
The Mini will sell for $99 on contract, the Ultra for $199, and the Maxx for $299. They are available for pre-order now, and will ship August 20th.
