Nowadays, the physical style of smartphones in the market can be described as super unique, this differences is mainly due to the different product positioning effect. But no matter how different the appearance of the phone is, the ultimate goal to make their sellphone ultra-thin is the common pursuit of major smartphone manufacturers. When iPhone4 showed in front of consumers with its 9.3mm ultra-thin thickness, who would think there has been a lot of smartphones coming out and constantly refresh the thin record less than two years later. But as the ultra-thin phones become more, customers may feel hard to choose among them. In order to avoid such difficulty situation, I have chosen the three most representative ultra-thin models in the market to do a comprehensive comparison. They are OPPO Finder, Motorola RAZR XT910, and Huawei Ascend P1 respectively. And which model do you prefer?
6.65mm OPPO Finder wins the title of the world’s thinnest phone, and it is because this title that the phone becomes the focus of people’s eyes instantly. Motorola RAZR XT910 launched last year won the recognition of the users by virtue of its 7.1mm ultra-slim body and cool blade design. Of course, Huawei Ascend P1 is not common, it has a 7.69mm ultra-slim body, and more importantly it weighs only 110 grams, more lightly compared to OPPO Finder ‘125 grams and RAZR’127 grams.
On appearance design:
Seeing from the front part of the phone body, OPPO Finder is more like an angular black glass. If you do not look carefully, you can hardly see the touch keys above. This model also increases the overall mystery of the phone. The external screen of the phone adopts corning gorilla series tempered glass with non-slip characteristic. The inside part of external screen is a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED screen, whose image effect is very clear.
Although the exterior design of the Motorola RAZR is also angular, it is not quite common. The design style of four concave corners on the top is a big bright spot where bring people wonderful first impression without losing the feeling of technology. It is equipped with a 4.3 inches 960x540 qHD level Super AMOLED screen under gorilla tempered glass, and the display effect is equally impressive. In addition, the bottom of the screen has four Android capacitive touch buttons, and the entire button area is more compact.
On camera:
The most prominent symbol at the back of OPPO Finder is its convex-style circular 8 megapixels camera. This is designed mainly due to the lens and image sensor components. Although it feels somewhat out of tune, it indeed became the crowning touch of the OPPO Finder.
The back design of the Motorola RAZR looks like a "sharp" blade, 8 megapixels camera as well as the position of the speakers are concentrated at the topside of the back. The layout will leave a broader space to users when they are holding the phones.
Huawei's smooth back design is to highlight the sense of fashion. It combines the original membrane, pouring process, the custom key components and integrated metal frame, so that users can feel more creative elements in this smartphone. The top center of the back is equipped with a 8 megapixel camera, and the bend design at the bottom of the palm rest is more suitable for users’ palms.
On operating system and UI:
OPPO Finder is equipped with the latest Android 4.0 operating system. In fact there isn’t much difference compared with Find 3 Android2.3 interface. The only change is in icon design. This uniformity also shows that OPPO attaches great importance to unified user experience, and it can be good news for the OPPO Find series old users.
Motorola RAZR XT910 is equipped with the Android 2.3.6 operating system, this Android2.3.6 Moto Blur interface redesigned unlock interface and added the MOTO unique Widget plug-ins with lighting style dynamic effects.
Huawei Ascend P1 also has its own advantage, and it has Android 4.0 operating system. It added Huawei 's unique fashion element in the original system, one of the key functions is the display of the 3D UI.
Services:
Let us look at the services. OPPO Finder is internally built with its own NearMe service, which includes the NearMe synchronization that can be used to synchronize contacts, backup / restore SMS to NearMe server. Meanwhile, in order to meet the diversified needs of the users, NearMe software shop, NearMe reading, NearMe music is included in it.
The popular service of Motorola XT910 is MOTOCAST personal cloud service, which lets your PC and phone access to multimedia resources each other. The entire registration process is not complicated, and we can use the USB data cable to connect your phone to your computer to install.
Huawei Ascend P1 is also equipped with cloud services, which supports importing and automatically synchronize the phone book. It owns 160GB online storage space and supports backuping phone data, managing private information, and remotely pointing device. In addition, in order to ensure the security of user information, Ascend P1 also equips with security guards, which can block harassing phone calls as well as encrypt for files.

Motorola RAZR XT910 is equipped with 1.2GHz TI OMAP4460 dual-core processor and PowerVR SGX540 GPU with 1GB running memory.
Huawei Ascend P1 runs on the same TI OMAP4460 processor but its clock speed is 1.5GHz. Besides, it is internally built with PowerVR SGX540 graphics processing chip and has 1GB running memory.
Summary: As for these three ultra-thin mobile phones, in fact, the thin extent of the appearance does not seem so important. It is evident that the Finder and Ascend P1 is more cost -effective than the Motorola XT910. On interfaces and services, all three can be excellent and all of them have their own advantages. On hardware, OPPO Finder is more prominent. Certainly, as for the practical feeling of the ultra-thin mobile phones, of course, I recommend you to go to the store to have a real feeling.
