Motorola RAZR-V3i Review - Display & Audio
The displays in both the V3 and V3i are almost identical. The outer display has 96x80 pixels and displays 65k colors. The inside display is 176x220 and displays 256K colors. The original RAZR had same resolution for both inside display and outer display, but the outer display only supported 4096 colors. Even with a much better camera on the V3i, because the resolution of the display was not also upgraded, when taking pictures it looks the same. But when you transfer the pictures to a computer from the new V3i, you can see a big difference in both quality and size.
The V3i supports .mp3 songs. You can use this phone as an mp3 player which is becoming very common in new phones. It is unpractical to have a phone in one pocket and an mp3 player in the other. Now that the newer Motorola phones have iTunes support built in, it is very easy to use your phone as an mp3 player while on the go. If you receive a call while listening to music, the music will automatically pause and will resume when the call is ended.
You can also attend calls using the headphones that come with the phone. Some headphones do not have a mic built in, so you would have to unplug the headphones to make or recieve calls. The Motorola headphones that come with the V3i have a built in mic. Also since the V3i supports expandable memory, you can actually use this phone as an mp3 player, unlike the old V3 RAZR
