Brazil is one of the first countries to get the Motorola RAZR. Motorola Mobility Brazil has just confirmed that the smartphone will be available in select stores across the country starting November 16.

The thinnest LTE-enabled smartphone, Motorola RAZR comes in a slim and lightweight bar form factor.

The entire front part is highlighted by the stunning 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Advanced capacitive touchscreen display, which is surrounded by a metallic frame with aluminum accents.

In addition, Motorola made use of KEVLAR fiber coating and Corning Gorilla Glass screen with splash-guard coating, to make the RAZR almost indestructible.

The original Motorola RAZR turned a functional necessity into an object of desire. We created a device that is superlative in terms of design, innovation and technology, allowing the user a unique power of communication and entertainment, with mobility and security,” says Edson Bortolli, product director of Motorola Mobility Brazil.

On the inside, Motorola RAZR is a beast, as it comes with a 1.2 GHz dual core TI OMAP 4430 processor, a PowerVR SGX540 graphics processing unit and 1 GB of RAM.

The device packs 16 GB storage, which can be expanded up to 32GB via microSD card slot. On the back, there's an 8-megapixel photo snapper with autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording capabilities, while on the front there's a secondary 1.3-megapixel camera for video calls.

Software-wise, Motorola RAZR is powered by Google's Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread operating system, but Motorola already confirmed the superphone will receive the latest Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade in early 2012.

With MotoCast application that comes pre-installed on the RAZR, users will be able to stream or download music and photos from a computer to the phone.

The RAZR is fully compatible with Motorola Lapdock 100, which allows users to turn the smartphone into a laptop via the webtop application.

No word on the phone's price options yet, but Motorola stated that more details will be disclosed in due time.
