Exclusively for Claro, Latin America’s first Android™-powered smartphone with an Intel processor arrives in Puerto Rico

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – Nov. 1, 2012 – Introducing the powerful Motorola RAZR™ i with Intel Inside®, the new full-screen smartphone that fits in the palm of your hand from Motorola Mobility and Claro. Its Super AMOLED Advanced 4.3-inch display spans from edge-to-edge with virtually no border - giving you more screen with less phone. Motorola RAZR i is the first smartphone that can achieve speeds of 2.0 GHz thanks to a fast Intel® Atom™ processor. Jump from a game to a text and over to a playlist, then off to browse the Web - all without stopping and on a long-lasting battery. The Motorola RAZR i will be available exclusively with Claro starting this week.

The power of Intel Inside means you also get an instant-launch 8-megapixel camera that can load in less than a second¹. Just use the dedicated camera key so you get the shot you want. When there’s action involved, multi-shot mode lets you snap 10 pictures in less than a second. And with the illuminated sensor located on the back and High Dynamic Range (HDR) capabilities, you’ll get a great shot, even in challenging lighting conditions.

"Offering devices with the latest technology and real differentiators is a priority for Claro. That is why the RAZR i launch with Intel Inside is an important addition to our portfolio of handsets. We are confident it will be another great success for Claro’s and Motorola’s alliance," said Enrique Ortiz de Montellano, president of Claro Puerto Rico.

“An instant launch camera that takes 10 pictures in less than a second and Web pages that load blazingly fast on a device with a perfectly-sized screen that fits in the palm of your hand,” said Roberto Agostini, commercial director, Motorola Mobility Puerto Rico. “RAZR i delivers all of this, as well the first Intel-fast processor in Latin America in a beautifully designed phone with extra-long battery life.”

"The Puerto Rican, who is passionate about communication and technology, now has at its disposal a unique experience combining Motorola´s technology with the performance and reliability of Intel. This union is a milestone for Intel in Latin America," said Guillermo Deffit, Intel’s telco manager, Latin America North. "The innovation in this Intel Atom processor ensures all the features that people want in a smartphone: it is fast, has extended battery life and high performance in application execution. In addition, it has a camera that does not miss any important moments in your life."

Powered by Android™ 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich (upgradeable to Jelly Bean), RAZR i puts the world of Google Play™ in your hands, with access to more than 600,000 apps and games. Get where you need to go with Google Maps for Android™ with free turn-by-turn directions and voice guidance. RAZR i also features near field communication (NFC) technology so you can send contacts, links, maps and more directly to compatible phones with Android Beam™. Just hold the phones together and tap the screen.

Designed with premium protective materials, RAZR i is built to go everywhere. A diamond cut²aircraft-grade aluminum24 frame surrounds the display, which is made of Corning® Gorilla® Glass, to deflect both scratches and scrapes. On the back, RAZR i is made DuPont™ KEVLAR® strong³.
