I have the original Motorola Droid Razr Maxx (before the HD Razr Maxx) came out. Is it worth it to upgrade to the new Droid Maxx? Big difference?

I wish it had Micro SD, but on screen buttons are terrible. The use up valuable screen space and they have burn in issues, especially with AMOLED screens (my RMHD had bars on top and bottom from status bar and button bar). It's very noticeable when watching a video with light colors.I personally see the new lineup as a step back in some ways from last years Droid lineup. I don't understand why they went away from SD Card and on-screen buttons. However the screen will be nicer and the camera should be better.

I think, on a device with limited screen space, having onscreen buttons is incredibly stupid. Its even worse on tablets. It looks so stupid to have 3 tiny buttons and a huge black bar across the bottom in landscape...ugh. Yuk!
"I think we should scroll more, what should we do with this bottom 10% of the screen?"
"How about buttons."
"Sounds good"
"What about the bezel where buttons used to be?"
"Logos!"
Pathetic.
No MicroSD slot, no sale. I'll upgrade my Razr to a Razr Maxx HD in a few weeks. Not happy with Motorola.
Do you take your card out that much? I've pretty much never touched mine.
No, but I like to be able to pop it out if I get a new/replacement phone.

I guess for the once a year I do that I just copy the files over to my computer and then back to the new phone. That way I'm also not carrying a bunch of app data over from apps I no longer use or have.
I dunno man, those batteries make the device HUGE. I've got one of the Hyperions on my GNex. I absolutely love it, and use it on road trips, but I hate the added thickness. That said, I'd probably get the ZeroLemon as well if I wasn't most likely upgrading in the next month. I'll give those guys props though because they're really not that much thicker than the Hyperion.Im in the same position .. I have the droid razr maxx and I got an upgrade in a few weeks. Im debating getting the droid Maxx but the no microsd card slot is a huge negative for me. I have a 64gb card with 50 gb of music...
Im really considering getting the Galaxy S4. Also battery isnt an issue with the S4 because its removable and they have a 7500 mah battery for it. Plus the S4 has a micro sd card slot.

What I've learned in my short time using a nexus 7 is that cloud services help a lot. Dropbox, google drive, etc. All my photos upload to those from my phone and I can view them on my nexus without a loss of quality. Sure its a pain to do that, but hey its fine with me. Granted it went effect me as I will probably be going away from Verizon because they have just been doing things that don't sit with me. The new upgrade policy, have to wait till March before my contract is up, when it was supposed to be done just in time for black Friday, and no more unlimited data. I sound picky but it is what it is.

I hate everything about storing on 'the Cloud' except ease of access across devices.Annoying thing about the cloud stuff is that its slow to pull up. Even just simple text documents from my Google Drive take a bit. Not a long time, maybe 10-15 seconds, but not like if they were on the phone. I'd hate to have to pull up something large.
