Motorola MOTORAZR V3m (Verizon Wireless)

It worked good until recently. I bought it because I like the phone, but they are famous for messing up.

I bought this phone on eBay because my daughter has already used her twice yearly insurance replacements, and yet again the phone stopped working. I like the keypad, and the memory space / features. The design is slim and compact which is great. The problems we've been having have been within the phone itself. The first two had factory software problems, and this last one, bought here on eBay worked fine for a couple of months. Then it also started getting blank screens. According to Verizon it was originally activated 2 years ago, so I'd say it lasted a while. We just received our new Razor today from Verizon (3rd since 8-07) so hopefully it will last more than a few months. I have known friends with this phone and it has lasted them over 2 years. I'd say it's luck of the draw on the sotfware, but the phone itself has never failed us.

I bought this phone because my doughter wanted one. She loves the fact that the phone is flat, and she can just shuve it into her pocket. I dislike this phone because I think it is slow, but my doughter loves it and thats all that matters.

I bought this phone for my son. He likes the phone but said texting is a little more difficult than with his last phone (had a qwerty keyboard).

Cell phone preferences vary greatly from person to person. No one phone will make everyone happy; and I've found that a trial-and-error approach works the best for me. That, and asking everyone who has one what they like and dislike. You are bound to find someone who looks for the same features you require in a cell or home phone system. In addition to that, even if you're looking at phones on eBay, go to the store of the cell phone provider that you are going to use and test their phones and ask questions about any phones you are considering.

I bought this one to replace one I bought from Verizon that I absolutely hated because the computer never heard my voice commands correctly. I do like this one much better. From the review, it may sound like I do not like the phone, but I do. I am just very particular about electronic products, and may expect too much from them.

Good features of the RAZR:

1) Voice commands are seldom misunderstood by computer.
2) Clear, crisp sound...usually even when using the bluetooth.
3) Slim style fits nicely into pocket or purse.
4) It is sharp looking...get lots of people admiring it.
5) It has a fairly good camera...pretty clear pictures.
6) It has VCast capability...I do not use this feature so I cannot rate it.

Bad features include:

1) Battery life (even a new battery) is short...I have to recharge 2-3 times a week.
2) Keypad is a little harder to use because:
A) The backlight powers off too soon...cannot program it to stay on any longer.
B) The numbers are not raised so I have to use my fingernails to dial, which means that I cannot dial by touch; I always have to look.
C) The way the keypad is designed, the numbers do not appear to be in a row, making it confusing to look at.
3) Although the slim style has its advantages, it is also a disadvantage because I have to hold it tighter (when not using the bluetooth), and my hand cramps up.
4) I do not like any of the ring tones, but that may be because a phone I had a few years ago spoiled me with the variety...of which I liked many offered.

fast shipping and quick communication from the seller when I had a question about the item................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

I love the RAZR for it's durability and somewhat small making it easy to store away. Battery life is great and it gets reception almost anywhere.

Fast Service, Wonderful to work with, Beautiful Phone, daughter loves it.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The item came in exactly as described, and very quickly! I really appreciated that. The seller also made effort to contact me and let me know how pleased she was that I recieved it in good condition. Excellent!

The phone looks great! The battery doesnt hold a charge for very long but that is easily replaced. It is actually in perfect condition on the outside! Beautiful! I love the color pink!

My husband and I both have one not by choice and they are alright. If I didn't have the case for it I'd drop it all the time because of the shape and how thin it is. Mine sometimes powers off on me for no reason.

PS - Do some of you "reviewers" know that when you review something you are supposed to talk about the product and not the person on ebay who sold it to you? That's what "feedback" is for!

Payed for item--seller cashed money order--product not received--left many emails--no contact back from seller--been over a month since auction ended--BUYER BEWARE!!! READ SELLER REVIEWS FIRST!!!

this was a great product. The phone arrived before i expected and worked great. I cpuldnt believe how considerate the person was. The phone was just as described. GREAT seller.

phone in perfict condition looks like new and works great. very fast shipping. great comunitaion, safe shipping thank you.

love this phone. nice and thin and easy to handle. has the same features as my other phone but this one is alot thinner and a better design. havent figured out how to play music but i will.

cool phone works great just what i needed would buy one again can finally get all my work done on it no dislikes at all

I don't really like the iTAP for text messaging. It gets sort of irritating at times. My other phone used to have a Word setting on it, so I'm not quite used to this one yet.
I like how the screen is so large, and I also like it's sleek design. Easily fits in your back pocket.

Perfect in every way, get to have a camera for wrecks! This phone got me out of an auto wreck I was blamed for by the police report until the pictures were shown that I was telling the truth. Other party was put to blame from both pictures and people that were recorded telling there name and contact pionts, along with what happen!! Saved me from a law suite and insurance increace!!
Well worth every penny!!!

Do not really care for motorola electronics, but needed a new cellphone. Price was ok. It seems to be about the same functions as my very much cheaper samsung phone.

product was awesome, even through in extra's. Would highly suggest this seller. Was a smooth and fast transaction. Very easy to deal with! Thank You.. Curvencorona13-Oasisfashion

I am very impressed with the condition of the phone. The seller is very upstanding. It took a little long for it to get to me but I was happy with the phone when it arrived.

its an awsome phone!!! i just wish the ringer was louder.... if its from verizon then you got to hack it to get working 100%.

The good: The Motorola Razr V3 has a striking design and comes with a worthy list of features including Bluetooth, a speakerphone, and world phone support.

The bad: Unfortunately, the Motorola Razr V3 supports only video playback, the controls take acclimation, and the call volume is a bit low.
