Motorola Droid RAZR, RAZR MAXX getting ICS update today: will make them first Verizon LTE phones with global roaming

Android Ice Cream Sandwich for the Motorola Droid RAZR and RAZR MAXX is coming today - Verizon delivered on its promise to update the handsets by the end of the second quarter. Gradually, starting today, the Droid RAZR phones will be bumped up to Android version 4.0.4, just days before Google is expected to bring the next big Android update, Jelly Bean.

Other good news around the ICS update for the Droid RAZR duo is that the update to the latest Android will make them Verizon’s first 4G LTE handsets that are also global.

This means that basically you can use voice and data in more than 220 countries across the globe, but for that you’d still need to pay for an international plan.

With ICS the Droid RAZR family is getting the new features you’d expect including Face Unlock, Direct Access Lock Screen that gives you quick lock screen access to the camera and others.
