Hijacked by cingular Feb 12, 2007
By E. Kent
This is an amazing piece of equipment. I have used the RAZR V3 for 2 years. This is only that much better. Bright screen. Brillient Graphics. Fast operating system. Huge memory. Decent camera. Quantum improvement over the original RAZR v3
The downside: Cingular has replaced the functional "Mail" button with their "Video" button. I own a phone to talk and text. Cingular wants you to watch "Video" ($10.00/minute without plan). Push that button by mistake and it will be a very expensive day.
A fantastic phone by Motorola undone by Cingular's "Marketing" department.
Can't wait to purchase an unlocked, unhijacked version of this incredible phone.

 Awesome after an easy hack Mar 06, 2007
By A. Rathbun
I've had a non-3G RAZR for a couple years, and recently upgraded to this. Coupled with an unlimited data plan, this is an absolutely stellar phone.
Users of past RAZR and similar Motorola phones almost won't recognize the OS. It's been hugely improved in almost every area - camera, media, address book, messaging, storage (including a a Transflash slot). It's also very snappy. Hardware-wise, the screen is bumped from the old 176x220 to 240x320 (QVGA). It's silky smooth and bright.
If you live in a Cingular 3G area, the HSDPA data is amazingly fast, and the voice quality is orders of magnitude better than any cell phone I've tried before - crystal clear. The built in browser is okay, but it really shines with the free Opera Mini browser.
The only disappointing thing is that Cingular has crippled the network access for Java applications. Using a non-Cingular Java application such as Opera Mini will have the phone asking your permission to access the network every single network request it makes. This gets really frustrating really fast, but a fix can be found with a little bit of googling.
Don't bother with this if you don't get the data plan... get a KRZR instead... many of the OS improvements are included.

Razr V3xx is the best Razr phone availble. Mar 14, 2007
By Rex L. Overbey
The V3xx excels so much more than any other razor phone. The V3xx has a 247mhz Arm9 process which the V3/V3i/V3r only have a 40mhz processor, V3x 70mhz,Krazr K1 only has a 66mhz processor. Also the V3xx has more built in memory than any other previous Razr phones with 60Mb expandable w/ upto 2GB SD. Another note the V3xx has the Nvidia Goforce 4800GPU which is great for the gamer. I had much faster framerates on my Java games. The Goforce 4800 also conserves battery life when you are not using the phone. I had the V3r razr and the batter drained much faster. The V3xx comes with the best screen so far with 240x320 Qvga screen. The old Qcif screens just do not look this good it is amazing. V3xx is a HDSPA 3G phone one of the only ones that cingular provides. It is much faster than the old GPRS/Edge/UMTS formats and allows for faster data downloads. Streaming video, and audio is also availble which is a great feature. The video camera is very good and supports full screen playback. Lastly the phone supports A2DP stereo bluetooth 2.0 support.
Only drawbacks of the phone are the camera 1.3MP the Goforce chip supports upto 3MP and Motorola should of done that. Still most razr phones only have VGA or 1.2MP. Another drawback is the buttons ofcourse this is something common amongst all razr phones.

Best phone out there! Mar 06, 2007
By S. Martino
Prior to purchasing this phone, I had used a wide variety of other phones from Cingular with having settled on the V551 for a while and then even upgrading to a Palm Treo 650 since I wanted easier to use options of email, internet, text messaging and mp3 player all in one. Well after the Palm got old and I wasnt using as much as I thought I would and with the extra weight of the Palm, I decided to buy a v3xx after reading all the reviews.
I just cant say enough about this phone! Some of the great features I've noticed just in the few days since Ive had it:
1. Great clarity and reception
2. Just beautiful phone
3. I can finally listen to songs via bluetooth! I couldnt even do this with my Treo! I always had to either listen through the phone itself or through a corded earpeice.
4. Convienent options menu for the most popular menu options such as turning on bluetooth, music player, etc. No need to go scrolling through pages and pages of menus to get what you need.
5. Lightning fast download speeds! Even with my Treo, it would take forever for a webpage to load. This Razr loads within seconds!
I'm sure this phone has many other great features that I havent found yet, but these are the most impressive ones. I have yet to find a negative about this phone. I cant believe I was able to get everything I used on my PDA into this much smaller phone with faster speeds and better options!
Anyone looking to buy this phone, do not hesitate. Its fantastic. So worth the extra cost!

Awesome phone! Mar 28, 2007
By Alan Mazer
The title says it all. It's got lots of features but I don't care about those. I don't need my phone to take pictures and play MP3s and all that, even though this phone does those things. I just need it to reliably perform as a phone. My last (Samsung) phone had very poor sound quality and was often unusable. This one is awesome. The sound quality is superb, even in places that used to give me trouble with other phones. It's also very stylish, light, and fits easily into a pocket. Fantastic graphics. This is just an awesome phone.
