The release of the update is confirmed as Q3 2012 for Asia Pacific, Canada, China, EMEA, Japan, Korea & LATAM.
First software update for Motorola Droid Razr fixed the SIM error notification, has improved the camera features and quality, the 3G-4G data connectivity has also been improved.
Webtop
Similarly to the Motorola Atrix 4G, it has the integrated 'Webtop' application from Motorola. The Webtop application is launched when the phone is connnected to the external display through Laptop dock or HD multimedia dock. In Webtop mode, offering similar user interface of typical Ubuntu desktop, the phone can run several applications on external display such as Firefox web browser, SNS clients and 'mobile view' application enabling total access of Atrix and its screen. In September 2011, Motorola released the source code of Webtop application at SourceForge.
Webtop 3.0
With the Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade, Webtop is now called Webtop 3.0 and no longer consist of a separate Linux OS. Instead, when the phone is connected to an external monitor via HDMI (lapdock or multimedia dock is no longer required) and webtop is chosen, the phone switches to the tablet UI in ICS and is able to run all the existing applications on the phone.
Droid Razr Maxx
Motorola released a version of the Droid Razr carrying a higher capacity battery. The RAZR MAXX is equipped with a 3300mAh or 3200mAh Li-Ion battery, an 85% increase in capacity over the 1780mAh battery in the original RAZR. Due to the battery's larger physical size, the RAZR MAXX's overall thickness is larger at 8.99mm.
