Summary: I Am Glad I Bought This Phone
Review: i bought this kinda like an experiment, not knowing what to expect. im glad i bought it. it's the best phone i've ever used, and i actually think the high price was worth it in the end. i mean common the peoples pictures are in the phonebook, not their name , but their picture. well worth it.

Summary: good phone but no accessories
Review: i have had this phone for 2 weeks now and i liked the look and feel of the phone. i use the phone only as a phone and not as a digital camera; so i will not comment on that.

good:
1. really slim. no more bulges in your formal trouser pockets.
2. sound levels - speakerphone sound level is very good. i would have liked to have higher handset volume.
3. charging - takes very less time to charge and also is very convenient to talk while charging if you use the little connector that they provide. that was a good idea...whoever thought of it, did a good job there.

not so good:
only one thing...no accessories with this phone. at this price they should have provided us with atleast a headset. so for all the money that you spend, you get just the little phone. NOTHING comes with it. :(

this is a good phone...go for it if you can afford it.

Summary: Yeah, it IS small
Review: So, I haven't bought one of these yet, but I've seen some folks with them and messed around with it. The phone's got a great design and it's really small. Believe me, that part is totally cool.

But, other than that, it is a VERY basic phone. That's a big price tag on such a basic phone. Dig?

Summary: Overpriced, Basic Feature Set, Imperfect Design - RAZR V3
Review: The Motorola RAZR V3 is a "pretty" phone; this is especially the case when viewed in photographs (like what you'll see here on Amazon.com).

DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PHONE BEFORE SEEING IT FIRST HAND. Though even that did not stop me from making the impulsive purchase online, seeing it "live" did present me with my first, second-thoughts. Those being: that the front of the phone looks a bit awkward mostly because of the tiny black on less-black display on a big brushed aluminum face; and secondly, and most terribly, that it's just too wide! What, after all, really is the purpose in making an uber-slim phone if you're going to have to pancake it? Alas, I bought the phone anyway.

Upon receipt I noted the following: the side buttons are located on the screen half of the flip rather than the keypad half which is a departure from every other Motorola phone I've had and, essentially, makes them utterly useless when in a call (changing volume for example would require you to pause the conversation to press the buttons); also, the battery cover for this phone is a cheap piece of plastic that may or may not fit all that well (mine took a bit of finagling to get it on); it comes questionably spare of accessories (at least from Cingular)(for this price shouldn't it come with more than a home charger and useless keyfob).

In the end, I returned the phone. The keypad is pretty and the phone itself holds some aesthetic value although a closer look dimishes this somewhat. In terms of useability, I would rate it sub-par as the pictures it takes are as good/bad as any other current motorola and its side buttons are poorly located in addition to its awkward width. Last but not least, for what it offers, and perhaps by any standard, the phone costs way too much. Even with the rebate, it's not worth it frankly. Though I'm inclined to get the newest toys, I swear that the v60 (yes v60) with the slim case is still the best thing motorola has produced in terms of cell phones to date.

I just ordered the nokia 7610 and I'm pretty sure I'll like it much more than the razr - will review when I get it!

Summary: Great Phone, Awful Price
Review: The Razr V3 is definately one of the better phones I've had. For starters the manual isnt great at giving you some of the details. The phone in general has great looks, obviously very slim and fits into any pocket perfectly. I wouldnt recommend it if you have big fingers though because you might find a hard time trying to punch the numbers in. Im not a huge camera phone fanatic so I never really cared much about the quality. The reception is excellent, battery life is amazing, and if you like buttons and gadgets, this phone has plenty of them. Quad band does allow you to take this phone pretty much anywhere in the world. All you need to do is rent a sim card or something overseas. All in all its user friendly except like I mentioned earlier the manual could of been more percicive about a few things I ran into. Unless your job doesnt need any flashy objects that attract clients to you by making you look rich, I wouldnt recommend buying this phone at its original price. Its a great phone, but thats just asking too much for it. (...)

Pros: Very Slim, Long battery life, user friendly, flashy and impressive, lots of cool features.

Cons: Not good for people with big fingers, too expensive.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Decent
Review: There's quite a few things I like about this phone, and a few things I dislike. We'll start with the likes:
It's an attractive, light weight, and quite durable little phone. I've seen other's complain about the phones durability and I don't understand that means I have thrown this phone on three seperate occasions and it still works like brand new, without one single scratch. Hopefully that will straighten out any doubts you have on the matter of it being sturdy. All of it's features are easy to use, and the phone fits in places most cell phones can't, do to it's size. The speakerphone is loud and it doesn't cut out on you like other's i've owned. Now for my complaints on the Razr: If purchasing this through Motorola it comes with a very nice metal box, games, and a 3D phone book. You have to use Cingular as your provider and they take out the metal box, the games and the 3D phonebook and that should be included for the price of this phone. My major complaint is the volume on it is all the way up and I sometimes have a difficult time hearing. The phone is very difficult to keep clean and prints don't wipe of easily. You can not use a memory card and you really need one with the limited space it has. My last complaint is the phonebook will only let you store one number per name, so you have several of the same names with different numbers which makes it a bit unorganized. I would also like to add that I was disappointed that it didn't come with software. Altogether, it's a good phone without a lot of features and is quite easy to use which was exactly what I needed. It is a bit pricey for what it comes with.
