Unique Phone

Overall Rating:
4.6 out of 5
By: Michael Rivera on Saturday, September 22, 2007
From: Bronx, NY (United States)
Experience: 14 Months
Pros: Battery life on this phone is very efficient
Bluetooth compatibility is great as well.
Camera/videos are extremely clear
Big screen makes taking videos/pics very easy
64 MB microsd card is included with this phone (LOTS OF PICTURES/VIDEOS) (Adapter Included!!)
Cool Games (consume battery life after about 30 minutes with the games)
Digital Audio Player
Excellent Dolce & Gabbana Ringtones/Wallpapers
Came with a USB cable for data transfers.

Cons: May get scratched easily, I've had the phone for a little more than a year now and haven't dropped it yet so I wouldn't know.

May get stolen because this phone can catch anyone's eye

Voice Records can't be stored on the phone, only sent via message.

Camera still has the motorola setback (you click the wonderful picture and hit store, then you need to go four buttons down to actually store it)

Way too expensive: 350 dollars (but worth it)

Summary: On the whole, this is a very unique phone. The features may be similar to the regular RAZR, however the style/ringtones/clarity of use make this hot on the market. I would definitely recommend this phone

Its more comfortable to hold than normal RAZRs as well :-)

RAZR's EDGE

Overall Rating:
4.7 out of 5
By: Joseph Demastrie on Tuesday, October 10, 2006
From: West Springfield, MA (United States)
Experience: 30 Days
Pros: Great Look
Solid Design
Excellent Reception
Easy to Use

Cons: Trendy
Not a ton of Multimedia uses

Summary: My wife recently got the RAZR phone and I couldn't help, but compare it to my A900M. I find the two phones very comparable since they both fit the trendy super thin design fad.

The RAZR has a great design and is fun to use, great sound quality and signal. Unfortunately for a phone which is echoing the previous RAZR phone, there isn't much improvement. There is more multimedia capabilities, but they don't seem to go as fast as my A900, but that could be because Sprint is faster.

My cute phone

Overall Rating:
3.5 out of 5
By: Di Krohn on Thursday, August 24, 2006
From: Wiggins, MS (United States)
Experience: 12 Days
Pros: Its a nice looking phone. It gets good reception and takes good pictures.

Cons: Buttons!

Summary: I enjoy this phone. I wanted to try it as soon as they came out. I'm glad I did. I take a lot of pics with it and its easy to use, easy to understand. The color is really pretty and people always notice it. I recommend this phone. Really the only "cons" that I can think of, are that the buttons aren't exactly spaced the way I'd like. Though I'm not sure how they'd fix that and keep it so small.

cell phone

Overall Rating:
2.8 out of 5
By: Lisa1 Cruz on Wednesday, August 23, 2006
From: Philadelphia, PA (United States)
Experience: 3 Months
Pros: slim and compact big screen

Cons: buttons are too close together and flat

Summary: Razor is nice and compact able to carry in back pocket. Big color screen, but buttons are too close together and flat which makes it a little harder to dial a number without pushing the next number by mistake.
