You might call Motorola ELECTRIFY M a cousin of the RAZR M, RAZR HD, and RAZR Maxx HD. Like its predecessors, the ELECTRIFY M runs on Android and is enclosed in a slim, flat chassis. Under the tagline “compact without compromise,” the new phone hit the stores in late November 2012, just before the Christmas shopping rush began. After the $100 mail-in rebate, your cost for the device is between $99.99 to $149.99. As one of the devices spawned from Google’s May 2012 acquisition of Motorola Mobility, the Electrify M incorporates many notable Google features, such as Google Maps, Google search, Chrome browser, and Google+.

The ELECTRIFY M is a smartphone, intended for more than talking over the airwaves. The 4G LTE service offered with the device at authorized outlets is expected to feed the social media and multimedia addictions of those who check emails, post photos, stream music, find nearby restaurants, and browse Facebook, often all at the same time, from a single device. Is the compact device able to live up to its no-compromise tagline in that respect?

Americans who were eying Motorola’s Droid RAZR M and just weren’t keen on Verizon’s typically overt branding now have at least one alternative. US Cellular is giving the big-screened, small-sized smartphone a slight respin as the Electrify M, with a subtler (if less Kevlar-laden) design wrapping around the same 4.3-inch screen, 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 and LTE that we’ve come to know. The carrier applies a light touch to the Android 4.0 build as well. Those who want to take advantage of US Cellular’s giant LTE expansion this month won’t have to wait long between the widened coverage and a new device to use with it: the Electrify M goes on sale online as of November 8th, and retail a day later, at the same $100 post-discount price as its Verizon counterpart.
