Motorola Droid Razr Maxx Red Carpet Edition

What more publicity would a mobile manufacturing company need for their handsets, than being held by a renowned celebrity? Motorola’s new strategy is apparently going to give more publicity for its handsets. Motorola Droid Razr Maxx, one of the long running successful handsets, Motorola ever created, now comes as a limited edition model as well.

The limited edition Razr Maxx, known as the Red Carpet edition can be yours, if you are a celebrity. Reportedly it is not just presented to any celebrity alone. Motorola decided to show off their Droid Maxx limited edition amidst the glitz and glamour of the Academy Awards this year. Those celebrities, who will be present the function and get nominated for Academy Awards, would receive the Red Carpet edition handsets.

The combination of a sleek design and a vivid red color makes this special edition Razr Maxx a perfect stylish handset fit for a celebrity. For ladies, the Red Carpet gift pack would have a gold pouch in addition to the limited edition model. For males, instead of the gift pouch, it would be a cool high end shaving kit. The gift packs will also pack a Motorola ELITE SILVER Bluetooth headset as well. The headset goes great with the super stylish Red Carpet Droid Razr Maxx.

Reportedly, there aren’t any changes in the specification of the handset. Although, celebrities are the lucky ones here as well, Motorola then announced that five Red Carpet editions would be gifted to the lucky participants of the company’s Twitter sweepstakes. So unless you become a celebrity, make it to Hollywood, and get nominated for an Academy award, you won’t be able to get your hands on the Razr Maxx Red Carpet edition. The only other alternative is just being plain lucky, once you start following Motorola in Twitter.
