I've been wanting to get the Motorola razr v3 since I first saw the ads for it a few months ago. Now that the price went down from $500 to more reasonable, and I'm finally eligible for an upgrade, I decided to get it. I looked at some reviews online they were good, overall. Yesterday I went to the Cingular store to buy my new phone but they didn't have black, so today I ordered it through cingular.com. About a half hour after I ordered it, my friend (who works at an electronics store where they sell the razr, I guess) told me that it's the worst phone on the market right now. ...Was he right? Now I'm really nervous that I made a bad decision... anyone know anything about these phones?? Thanks, girls.
I don't know anything about it but I can ask my bf. He is good about new technology. I do remember Farrah asking about this phone a few months ago on here. Try searching the old posts in this topic for her post or pm her about it.
1. I have yet to find someone who has this phone who doesn't RAVE about it
2. I'm jealous. I want one too.
3. It's incredibly packed with useful features, and stylish, too, and it's Motorola, so chances are it works well as a plain phone.
4. Many, _many_ people I asked about this phone who _don't_ have one have poo-pooed it. You wouldn't believe the bias there is out there with people who haven't even touched it!
So if the person who said it was a bad phone doesn't have one, don't listen. Enjoy your new phone and know that this gadget-geek-girl is envious.
If he does own one...And I don't mean has tried it for a day, or pushed buttons on a demo...and after a month hates it, well, then maybe there's an issue.
My friends father has had it for a couple months already and is about to throw the razr in the trash. He said it is a cool looking phone, however, because it is soooo thin, the earpiece is horribly uncomfortable and you can't hear anyone on the other end of the line. I think it has to do with the tiny speakers they have to use to keep the phone so thin. Anyway, I can not recommend it, because he says he can not have a conversation on that phone to save his life. He just cant hear the person he is talking to.
