SUMMARY: The Motorola Razr V3 phone is awesome! It's slim, yet tough. I've dropped it on accident about five times now and each time I thought it was definitely going to break with the large inside screen and with the smaller screen located on the outside along with the camera lens. Glad to report that there isn't so much as a scratch on the phone and it still looks good as new! It's also easy to use and makes hands-free talking simple with its easy-to-hear speakerphone.

SUMMARY: I really like the Motorola Razr V3 phone. The picture caller ID is such an awesome idea! The bluetooth headset works wonderfully. It took me a while to realize that if I wanted to use the voice activation, I had to save to phone, not to SIM, but that was just a minor thing. I like that the phone is sleek, not bulky. I was able to take a pic at night with very little light! I have recommended this phone to friends.



You'll really like this phone!

PROS: Good speaker phone, vibrant internal screen, and of course the slim design

CONS: None it includes all the features and qualities that are popular today!

SUMMARY: Bluetooth is one of the best features on the v3. The ability to sync with my laptop, desktop, and use a wireless headset are extremely useful. I sync to my headset the most. Battery life is one of the most important qualities of a phone. The Motorola Razr v3's battery life is much better than any other phone I have used. The outside screen is a great feature which really helps the phone out in many aspects. Being able to take a photo of myself by using the front screen is nice. The inside screen is large and vibrant. Out of all of my phones the v3's screen tops them all. The camera is not the best that I have used, but still functional none the less. The speaker phone and internal speaker are the best I have heard. The keypad is very unique, but still usable. I have 2 problems with the v3. The internal speaker when you aren't making a call has a high pitched noise. The keypad's light if in an enviroment thats not too bright or too dark it will randomly turn off and on. I think the call quality on the v3 is the best I have ever heard. It only cuts out on me every once and awhile with 2 bars. When I first saw the v3 I thought, "Looks with no usability.", boy was I wrong. The phone is perfect for what I need. The v3's best quality is it's design. The metal construction makes it feel solid, but not like it's a brick. The 13.9mm thickness is able to easily fit in my pocket. The camera is an exellent feature of the phone, especially since you are able to use it while the phone is closed. I would absolutely recommend this phone to anyone who is willing to spend the money for it. The phone has all the qualities more people are looking for. I would give the Motorola RAZR v3 a 9/10 for functionality, 10/10 for design, and 9/10 for reception.

PROS: The phone has great reception and I love using the Bluetooth. I have great “real” ringtones to choose from that are really loud as well. This was an added bonus because I have to drive a lot and love to listen to the radio. With my last phone I could never hear it in the car and was always having to pull it out of my purse to see if I had missed any calls. If I do miss a call with the RAZR it stays displayed on the outside screen with all of the info which is great. The menu is easy to lear

CONS: Even though the front screen is difficult to read when outside in the sun, who gets upset about being outside on a nice sunny day!!

SUMMARY: Because I am a fan of Nokia phones, I was really hesitant about purchasing the RAZR v3. As a happy Cingular customer it was time for me to upgrade so I decided to go for it, and I am surprisingly happy!! The phone can also help your social life because it really draws people in and gets them talking!!

PROS:

CONS: I have had problems with my phone. When Im talking on the phone it gones dead silent and I can't hear any thing while the other person is saying they can hear me. When I take pics., the pic does not come out, and when I open the phone the screen is all white. Some time I have to open it and close it a few times. When you talk the other person sound muffled. There is a constant glare on the screen. If I had of known about this phone I would NOT OF PURCHASED THIS PHONE.

SUMMARY: Don't purchase this phone. All it will give is headaches.

PROS: Thin

SUMMARY: This phone is too wide for my hand. Has an uncomfortable fit, It does not fit into the belt clip snuggly, and has a tendency to fall off. The flat dialing surface is difficult to disqunish the numbers. no real number pads. It is extremely hard to hear, you must hold at a very unconfortable angle to hear your caller. May work with a hearing aid. NOT for hard of hearing people, my husband got one the same time as me and these are going back.

PROS: Sleek, small, thin, large viewing screen, battery recharges quickly

CONS: Screen is not very bright when outdoors, video recording is really low quality, and sometimes hard to hear.

SUMMARY: I've had this phone for now more than a year and I am very pleased with it. Although it has some weaknesses its still a great phone. I really like how the battery recharges really quickly, like in an hour. Its thin, sleek, has that cool factor and its one of the best and smallest phones out there. I love the large screen. There are a few annoyances I have found with the year of use of this phone. For example sometimes when you're in a conversation it's really hard to hear the person on the other end. Also when you are outside its sometimes hard to see the screen even at full brigthness. But overall I would recommend this phone to anyone who wants a good phone for a low price. I'm very pleased with it.

The razr is a great starter phone!!! It was my first cell phone. It was very easy to use and it got me used to cell phones. It's not caveman-like were you only use it to talk, it has some games and you can text easily. The one I have is so old they dont sell them any more. It was the kind before the v3, but they are basically the same phone!!! My biggest problem was that the paint came of it when it got water on it, even if it was a tiny bit(i had the black one). I have kept a cover on it, but for the past month it has't worn one. Now that I have had it for years and its just starting to act up, but just a little bit. I will get a new phone in a week or two.
