Ealier on in the week (details here) we got to see the new UK phone from Motorola, the RAZR i. We got to see lots of information about it, the specs, some pictures and then some videos as well. On the day there wasn’t really any mention of pricing from the networks. This morning Motorola have sent us details of the initial networks and outlets that will stock the RAZR i on a contract basis.
Here is the initial information from Motorola regarding prices:

Further partners will be announced in due course.
In recent times Motorola have gone with T-Mobile initially with their new devices so this isn’t too much of a shock. Let’s just see quite how good it is with it’s Intel CPU.
Our initial impressions post should be coming soon.
I had a play with one of these last night, didnt spend too much time on it tho, it looks not too bad, in the picture gallery the zooming in and out of the pictures is very snatchy, and the quadrant benchmark test showed it to be much lower than the HTC one X, Battery life however im told is very very good with a high capacity battery, Motorola have thrown huge amounts at some advertising for the device from what ive been told.
