The Motorola RAZR i (Motorola XT890) is a smartphone designed by Motorola Mobility. It was officially announced on 18 September 2012 in London, UK.[2]
The Motorola RAZR i is the first smartphone by Motorola to feature an Intel Atom "Medfield" processor/SOC of the x86/IA-32 architecture, running a x86 port of the Android operating system. It is also the first smartphone with a CPU clocked at 2,0 GHz in its stock configuration.[3]
A special China-only version of the smartphone, the RAZR i MT788 was announced in November, 2012.[4] Externally, it looks identical to its sibling Motorola RAZR M launched two weeks earlier in the US,[5] with which it also shares many of its specs.
The RAZR i (XT890) is an almost identical edition except it has an Intel Atom Z2460 processor. This means it has more processing power and imaging power; however, it lacks LTE support.[6][7][8] It does not fully support many high-end apps and games designed for ARM processors until these apps or games are ported and recompiled for Intel compatibility.[9] However, because this is one of the only (if not the only) device using a x86 processor instead of an ARM processor, developers might not bother porting their applications unless there is more of a market for them.
The GPU in the RAZR i's Intel Atom Z2460 processor is a PowerVR SGX540, a faster-clocked version of the same GPU as in the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and many older smartphones such as the original Samsung Galaxy S. While the RAZR i's raw CPU processing power can be excellent for tasks such as web browsing, its GPU can be considerably slower than the RAZR M, which uses a Snapdragon S4 CPU featuring an Adreno 225 GPU.[10] This may be alleviated somewhat by the Atom Z2460 being capable of providing much greater memory bandwidth, which has traditionally been a severe performance-constraining factor in ARM-based chips.[11]
