Verizon DROID RAZR gets a DIY RAZR MAXX conversion kit

If you’re one of those Motorola DROID RAZR owners who felt cheated by Verizon after the DROID RAZR MAXX hit the streets, you’re not alone. However, it looks like there’s a solution for you – in the form of a 3rrd-party modification kit from the folks over at Cellphone Repair Shop. They are offering a DROID RAZR MAXX conversion kit that includes the 3,300mAh battery, adhesive tape, back battery cover, and SIM/SD card door. And if you’re wondering how much it’s going to cost – it’ll be $109.95, but that’s assuming you have the tools to pull off the job (if not it’ll cost you a bit more than that).

Just in case you didn’t know, the DROID RAZR and DROID RAZR MAXX are pretty much identical devices except for the phone’s batteries and thickness – so a conversion shouldn’t cost any problems between the devices. The only drawback to this is that you’ll probably be voiding your phone’s warranty. However, it is cheaper than shelling out $649 for brand new DROID RAZR MAXX. Head here if you’re interested in pre-ordering up a kit for yourself.
