Default Razr one hand usability

How is this phone when using it with one hand?

Debating getting it, because I have heard that its a little too big for one hand using it

I use it one handed, but I have large hands. I see how some people with smaller hands could have problems.

I find it difficult to use my Razr one-handed most of the time. My hands are probably medium.

I'm 5'11" 150. Not a big dude but not tiny. Average size I guess. Phone fits my hand just fine. Right handed but easy to use left as well. You can always go the the store and hold one O_o

My hands are average, most of my friends are shorter but have larger hands I can use it one handed, but not like a atrix or defy! But with swype it makes it doable.

Large hands here. Typing in portrait orientation works fine with one hand, as well as dragging down the notification bar. However, operating the camera with one hand is a pain.

Im 5`9" and 160lbs. Its fine for the mostpart. When holding it with my right hand its kind of difficult to reach the top right corner of the screen. Its something that idont mind for having a phone like the razr maxx.

Pretty much this. Although I'd say my hands are on the "huge" side
