According to stats for Q2 of this year, the Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX has outsold the iPhone 4S on Verizon Wireless, reports DroidLife.



Motorola have come out on top with the RAZR MAXX and it may all be due to the constant marketing techniques of Verizon. Verizon have been like a dog with a bone with the MAXX, never letting it go, pushing the powerful 4G LTE network device to the max. However this may be just for the moment and the Motorola RAZR MAXX may soon be knocked of their pedestal when we see the Samsung Galaxy S3 arrive later this month.
While all eyes were on the Samsung Galaxy S3 to take the throne from the iPhone 4S, it now looks like the Apple phone may be running out of steam on its own.

Honestly it doesn't surprise me kind how old the iphone 4s is and every time I go to verizon they try to dissuade people from buying an iphone and they want to you to buy an Android phone.

Well the thing is Verizon looses money on more money on the iphone then Android. So naturally one would think verizon would push android over the iphone. Its amazing the iphone beets android phone for so long. Personally I think the whole us cellar system totally screwed up in US is screwed up.

How old is iPhone 4S? This phone is a few months old.

Guess that's one way to make a phone appear more successful... it's selling better on ONE particular network in one particular country. *laughs* Power to them.

What's more interesting is that the phone selling best right after iPhone 4S (so 3rd place) is Galaxy Nexus.

verizon has the biggest nationwide coverage.

Well, the 4S isn't a very exciting upgrade over the iPhone 4, and I imagine most people who own iPhone 4 are waiting for iPhone 5 before they upgrade. And I'd imagine that iPhone 5 will briefly be the top-selling phone until the next big Android afterward is released.

Disappointing that a phone with a Pentile display would outsell a phone with a good display.

LIES!

We all know nothing outsells the iPhone

Not bad for a phone running an old laggy OS...... /s

Mid/Late October 2011, so about 8 months old now.

I find it hilarious too, but if that makes them feel better then good for them.
