Pros: Sexy and stylish, easy to use, good sound quality, status symbol, good battery life
Cons: So thin that handling it takes getting used to
The Bottom Line: This is the 'original' RAZR but it's still a very capable phone. I love it.

| hbj200's Full Review: |
I bought a RAZR v3 phone in July 2007 to go with my 7-Eleven Speak Out Wireless prepaid service. The phone is quadband and fully unlocked, so it can be used anywhere in the world.
I really like the RAZR phone. It's very solid and the voice quality is excellent. Speak Out Wireless runs on AT&T and T-Mobile networks so the reception quality can vary, but overall the RAZR does an excellent job in pulling in as much signal as possible. As with other Moto phones, the brightness of the screen can be adjusted, and the ringer type and volume can be easily changed. The metallic keypad takes a little getting used to, but is pretty comfy to use.
The camera is only VGA but takes good-quality pictures when there's plenty of light. Video capture is jerky and limited to 15 seconds, so that's probably the weakest feature for me. Bluetooth linkup to a Sony Ericsson earpiece works fine. Battery life is admirable; I don't use the phone much, maybe just 10 minutes a week, and I need to recharge it once every 8 days or so.
Because I've owned many Moto's before so I like the RAZR's interface, since it feels familiar, but I can understand how it can confuse users new to the Moto scene. Overall, though, I don't think it's harder to use than a Sony or Nokia.
What really impresses me is the build quality of this phone. Nowhere can you find out where this thing is made, but the material and fit and finish are excellent. I'm very happy with this inexpensive purchase.
