It’s become a rite of passage for any major smartphone — just a few hours under the knife (read: dozuki saw!), for the nice ‘ol iFixit teardown . Today’s victim is the Motorola Droid RAZR , which happened to hit Verizon stores across the time it arrived on the iFixit labs — so, yes, you may go pick one up today and do that yourself at home, at your individual risk and $299 expense, needless to say. The teardown revealed that almost all of the secret components are on one side of the motherboard, where yow will discover the Toshiba THGBM4G7D2GBAIE 16GB EMMC flash memory module, Samsung K3PE7E700M-XGC1 4GB LPDDR2 RAM, Qualcomm MDM6600 dual-mode baseband/RF transceiver, Motorola T6VP0XBG-0001 LTE processor and other goodies just like the combo Bluetooth/WiFi/GPS receiver. Wondering what else Motorola was capable of pack neatly below that 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED display? Hit up the source link for the whole iFixit teardown.
