After starring in a couple of leaks late last year, Verizon made the Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX nice and official at CES 2012 this week. Like a few of the other products unveiled by Verizon at the big show, though, the RAZR MAXX wasn't given a concrete release date at the time of its introduction, with Verizon only saying that it'd launch "in the coming weeks." It appears that Motorola may not have been able to hold the news in any longer, as the RAZR MAXX's page on the company's website lists the new handset as being "available 1/26."

For those of you that'd like a refresher, the DROID RAZR MAXX includes specs that are fairly similar to the original DROID RAZR, including a 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED Advanced display and 1.2GHz dual-core CPU, but it ups the battery (up to 3,300mAh) and the thickness (up to 8.99mm). Pricing for the RAZR MAXX will be set at $299.99 on contract. Need some help in killing the time until launch day? Check out @PhoneDog_Aaron's hands-on with the RAZR MAXX down below!
